| Please recommend a great resort for family with elementary age kids in Riviera Maya. We don't need all inclusive although not opposed to it. |
| Bahia principal coba or Akumal. |
| beach palace is smallish but nice esp if you want a beach. |
| Loved Iberostar Paraiso Maya. |
| Loved the Royal Hideaway |
Me too, but it's adults only. |
| Dreams - they have a few along the stretch from Cancun to Tulum. |
| Grand Velas is so lovely - one of my favorite hotels ever! |
| Moon Palace (or any of the Palace Resorts) would be my first choice and recommendation for you! |
| Hotel xcaret |
Seconding Grand Velas. Love it. |

S/O--are you all paying 500$+ for these all inclusives? We just came back from Cancun and didn't do an all inclusive because with two kids under the age of 6, it wasn't worth it for me to spend the 120$/pp fee (and kids counted as people) for a low-end all inclusive. I would one day like to stay in one because it would be more relaxing with little kids.

+1 I've been there twice and would definitely stay there again in a heartbeat. |
Not a PP but I just looked at Grand Velas for a week in June 2019 (we're looking into a family trip) and it was $1000/night. I have heard good things about the Paradisus Esmerelda and it's about half that. |
| The beach at Grand Velas is not great. Fairmont Mayakovsky is great and AI is optional |
