Going first time in Cancun, AI recommendations?
Hi everyone,
My partner and I are planning our first trip to Cancun in mid November, and we are deciding between Secrets The Vine Cancun and Paradisus Cancun.
We are a couple and not really into partying. We prefer a more relaxing atmosphere, good food, and nice beach/pool areas.
I found that Paradisus Cancun is about 20% cheaper than Secrets The Vine, but I have seen some mixed reviews about Paradisus, including comments about older rooms, long lineups, upselling, and some food options not being included.
On the other hand, I have also heard that because Secrets The Vine is a smaller resort, there may be a lot of “towel game” competition for beach and pool chairs.
We are considering The Reserve room at Paradisus Cancun and Preferred Club at Secrets The Vine. Our maximum hotel budget is around $3,000 for 2 adults.
Which one would you recommend? Is Secrets The Vine worth the higher price, or is Paradisus Cancun a better value?
Also, are there any other AI resorts in Cancun you would recommend within a similar budget? (Preferred hotel zone, but not necessarily)
Thanks in advance!
