- A walk through of the GR Solaris and GR Caribe in Cancun, MX. These resorts are all-inclusive and neighboring in the hotel zone. Both are waterfront with great amenities. Lengthy video due to touring two resorts, but as thorough as I could get. Still cannot figure where I left one of my GoPro cameras with additional footage. PLEASE LIKE and SUBSCRIBE for more adventures. These resorts were great for their prices and food was decent. Main turnoff we had during our stay were the hollow room doors with heavy-duty closers causing the doors to slam and the "echo-chamber" that were the hallways resulting in our poor rest. I discuss the restaurant issue toward the end of the video (after 22:00). If you have stayed at either of the resorts, please comment below with your experience! Thanks for watching and see you on the next one!
I was here 28 years ago lol. This brings back a lot of memories.
After many many many hours of searching for information on where to schedule the covid test your video was the first one to answer it! Hell yeah brother this is awesome
I was surprised that more resorts are NOT offering in-house testing since it is a requirement. On the island (hotel zone) there were several trailers parked in lots that provided the required COVID testing. Thank you Sir for the comment!
I stayed there about 20 years ago with my boyfriend at the time...yes thats a long time. We didn't want to leave. Great place!! Loved it! Would reccomend it to anyone. A Sgt at my job suggested it and he was on point.
I'm from Russia, me. I had a rest in this hotel in the spring of last year) I really liked the sea, musical nightly concerts and the theater and of course the Margarita cocktail with the addition of mango!)
I purchased a Condo Share at Royal Solaris about 15 years ago. I searched all over Mexico for the right one to buy into and I chose Royal Solaris Cancun because of the staff and the food.
I was there last weekend (January 14th to 17th) and it was amazing, we payed $800 for everything included (breakfast-lunch-dinner-open bar all day until 11:00 p.m.) it has a private beach too !!
🌊🍸⛱
Awesome to hear you has a great time! It was enjoyable and one of the best values on the island! Thank you for your comment!
Hi, I heard that if you booked with Royal Solaris you are NOT allowed shared amenities with GR. But if you have GR you can got to Royal. Is this true?
I wonder if the GR Caribe has quieter rooms?
So which one do people consider the best, we just booked the GR Solaris. We thought it was the better of the 3, were we wrong? We are booked through the April 8th to 15th.
Hello, You will have a great time at the resort. It is great with it being all-inclusive! We stayed the the Royal Solaris and visited the three resorts. The only place we used at the GR Solaris was the beachside restaurant. The Marco Polo restaurant at the Royal Solaris was good, "due to COVID" the rodizio was closed, Rosmarinus was our go-to restaurant due to the location right on the beach and the fajitas were good. The pizza at the pool was cooked to order and decent. Bogavante is at the GR Caribe and overlooks the beach. The menu changes daily and open for lunch and dinner. We at there 7 times during our visit. There is a buffet breakfast at the Royal Solaris, but we found the food was better quality at the GR Caribe's Cafe Solaris. The GR Solaris is catered for families with kids, the GR Caribe is a little more quiet, and the Royal Solaris is more of where the action is with the majority of the amenities. Enjoy your time and thank you for your question!
i was there in may had a blast…i recommend the ocean view room fireee
Absolutely must have an ocean view, it was a fun place. I am happy to hear you had a great time!
Can only use GR if you stay there. Going in two days so excited!
Great video!
That is correct, enjoy your time!
Thanks for the review. Do I need anything special to charge my cell phone and GoPro in the hotel room?
Mexico power outlets are 110-120V, 60HZ Edison plugs (same as in the USA and Canada). Enjoy!
@@asgoodasitgets1 Thank you!!!
Yey!! I like formal dress 👗. I like to dress up just like cruises. Anyways, how's excursion related to snorkeling and pyramids. Also, is all alcohol 🍸 included in both royal n gr?
When we stayed there, all was included at the three resorts.
Can’t wait to get there
Thank you
How was the beach? any sargazo or gulfweed
Nice video! Im wondering if The Result offer water activities like motor boat and para sailing? Thanks
Hello, When we were there, there was a desk just for tickets and tours for activities in the lobby. The resort was very accommodating. Enjoy!
Did you find this place a good place to stay? I booked a trip for July but I read bad reviews
Hello, It was a decent place. Nothing luxurious and not a 5-star hotel, but it was a good value. The Royal Solaris was definitely the best of the three resorts. Always something to do and not far from town. Hope you have a great time!
you’re precious thank you
Hey! I’m a graduating college student deciding on either the royal solaris or the GR caribe. I wouldn’t have known about the shared ammenities before I saw your vid! Question: is it ALL shared ammenities or are there some exceptions? Also, how do you get to and from royal solaris and GR caribe? Is it easy to get to and from? And finally, which one would you recommend for a graduating college student and friends?
Congratulations on your upcoming graduation! It is a very easy trip to and from the Cancun airport to the resorts in the Hotel Zone by shuttle or taxi. When we were there, it was inexpensive to rent vehicle near the airport and the rental place had a free shuttle. I would definitely recommend the Royal Solaris since it had the larger pool with the swim-up bar, DJ, Live music, indoor bars, and the price was less than the Caribe. Of course the two resorts are side-by side so you can use the amenities of both. I know this was a lengthy video, but I like to show everything offered of the two shared resorts. Enjoy!
Thanks for the video tour !
Is the sushi included in the "all inclusive" deal or is it an additional charge
The Sushi bar was included with the package deal. Hope you have a great time!
@@asgoodasitgets1yay! Lol Thank you for your response!
hey i see you’re still answering comments, but do you recommend bringing anything ? like anything you regret not bringing from home ?
Thanks for your comment. I cannot think of anything specific that you would need other than things you take on your trips (toiletries, swimsuit, clothing for the warm weather, and phone charger, etc). All alcohol and food is provided, there are towels available for checkout and also in your hotel room. I HIGHLY recommend taking the ferry to Isla Mujeres from the main terminal downtown (not on the hotel island) and rent a golf cart for the day ($40). There are some ruins at the southern point of the island that are cool to see, and near the middle of the island is a village that has a cool brewery (taproom) and around the corner a really good restaurant (Mango) with menu items that are normal economy prices (not tourist expensive like on the hotel island). Tulum is south from Cancun and well-worth the trip. Not sure how the rental vehicle prices are now, but that would be the best bet for a couple days. The Royal Solaris has free parking as shown near the end of my video. Have a great time!
Been there frequently. A couple suggestions - cups at the pool bar are a little small. We bring a tervis. Bigger and keeps the drink cold. Also, a small tote bag for the pool chair to hold sunglasses, room key, money, suntan lotion, etc
@@sethfriedman4082 Think you for your suggestions for all to see, always up for everyone's input!
So only 1 restaurant at the solaris is reservation required? The rest you can walk in?
Hello, The Marco Polo requires a reservation unless there happens to be an opening when you walk-in. The remainder of restaurants are walk-in and may have a short wait list during busy times. Enjoy your trip!
Great video! Would you recommend this to non members? I've seen some confusion about non members vs members and the access non members have to both properties.
Hello, We are not members and booked our stay through a third-party company. We still had an excellent time and did not have any amenities that were denied based on membership status.
Booked for early June based on your feedback. Thank you!
@@jdel22 Awesome, I hope you enjoy your trip! Please comment any COVID changes that you see while you are there or anything that has changed as far as the resort.
Whats the techno rock song they play at the pool? I reallt need to know, the dj played like in a loop many times
Thanka
I went back to my original clips and the song that was playing as I walked the pool at the Royal Solaris is "La Negra Tiene Tumbao" by Celia Cruz. I hope this helps!
Thanks for the video ! I noticed that all the pools are very shady ( not only in your video but also in TripAdvisor photos). Does the pool area not get sun ?
One pool has a cover - great for those days when you've gotten too much sun but still want to be in the pool. The others get loads of sun. Sun starts to go behind the building about 3-4pm.
How far is the drive to Cancun downtown and how much does it cost for the ride? Thank you!
We had a rental vehicle. The drive is about 20 minutes when heading north.
Hi, thanks for the video. A few questions….Do they have a kids club? If so, are they open? Does the resort have night shows?
Hello, When we were there, there was a kid's area at the Royal Solaris near the swim-up bar. They allowed up to two hours at a time for the kids to be there. It was all outdoors and as long as they were playing in the pool, masks were not required. During the day they did allow for the parents to check in with their kids and sign in and out to stay longer. We did not see any of the night shows due to the minimal staffing and reduced occupancy. The night time activities were limited to some performers and pre-recorded music in the lobby bar of the Royal Solaris. Thank you for your message and I hope you have a great time!
Can I use GR if I were in Solaris? And all the bartanders speak English and Spanish? Thank you for the video! I liked it a lot!!!
The majority of the staff speaks English well. We stayed the Royal Solaris and we were able to use BOTH resorts and their restaurants, bars, and pools.
What did u end up using the rental car for? I'm undecisive if I should rent or take a shuttle
bus runs up and down to town all day long, very inexspensive
Taxi runs about $15 US tho.....I take the bus or shuttle from Solaris (shuttle is free)
Wish you had shown the room otherwise good vid!
Covid test is free?
Correct, yes.
Make sure you check your results when you get them. When I tried to check in at the airport, the date on the test was all wrong. I almost lost my flight🤦♂️
Fu. Yung Meza best
Our dream is to get more subscribers than MrBeast
Great video, help me to find my hotel this October
