- This is our 2nd visit to the Moon Palace Grand in less than a year. We love this property and couldn't resist the draw to return again. The property is one of the largest in the Cancun Riviera Maya region and does require some longer walks or waits for golf carts to transport you around the property. The food is very high quality regardless of buffet or restaurant. Service is wonderful, pools are everywhere to fit anyones taste. The Water Works park is one of the best anywhere and add the Flow Rider for added benefit. While this is not a budget option, we have found fairly good pricing options with promotions that the Palace resorts has been offering this year.

Hey there! We have watched a couple of your videos on the resorts there in Mexico. We have been to The Grand at Moon Palace about 7 times now both with our kids and just ourselves. We've also been to a couple Secrets resorts (Akumal & Capri). We are getting married on April 1st this year and are completely torn between The Grand at Moon Palace & Secrets Maroma Beach for our honeymoon. We are curious which you would choose and why???
@TravelNoBS Hey there! I was just wondering if you had a response to my comment above?
Sorry for the late reply. For me, I would choose Secrets Maroma Beach as it is an Adults only AI, plus it is a little smaller resort with very upscale service levels. The other resort you should check into would be Excellence Playa Mujeres if your looking for an awesome experience and high level service. I feel the rooms at Secrets are just a little nicer than what we had at The Grand. We also love Secrets the Vine in the Cancun Area!
Also, the Beach area at Maroma is a lot nicer than the beach area at the Grand. If you like chilling at the beach and spending time in the ocean, Maroma is much better.
@@TravelNoBS Awesome! Thanks for the reply. We actually wound up booking at Secrets Playa Mujeras. We got the nicer suite right on the ocean and lucked out as it was the last one and sold out! I'll let you know how this place is too!
When is Part 2 coming out? We’re new to your channel and loved your reviews. Can’t wait to see the next part.
Thanks. Hope you enjoyed part #2.
I went to planet Hollywood last year after ur review!!U have the best reviews ..how is the grand vs planet Hollywood ..I have 2 young kids
We've heard many good things about Planet Hollywood but haven't been yet. However, we have 6 kids that we bring to the Grand almost every summer from age 12-21 and they all have so much fun!
I will be honest and say if I were to choose one over the other, I would probably book The Grand for sure. The level of service and overall vibe are just a step or two above Planet Hollywood. In terms of value, Planet Hollywood is excellent.
@@QueenOfOverdoing planet Hollywood is awsome
$1000 a night thats crazy no fuckkn way
I'm being quoted 6 grand for 6 nights, so yeah it's pricey but you get what you pay for! Gourmet dining at all restaurants, full waterpark, activities for kids, lazy river, flow rider, night entertainment, fancy cocktails! and if you want a beautiful beach you can just go visit the Beach Palace in the Hotel zone and enjoy that sister resort with beautiful turquoise colored water. If you want a similar resort but a little bit on the low end you can try "Barcelo Maya Palace" at $400/night it's pretty decent.
Enjoy your trip :) I think depending the time of year your price will for sure be different
@@SaL-ep7zbhave you been to both barcelo palace and the grand? We went to Barcelo Palace two years ago and hated the food! Is Grand any better
How was the seaweed? I think I saw some in the brief ocean shot. We went to the barcelo and it was 50/50. Half the time it was fine and the other half it was not.
Edit : I see part 2 covers this. Honestly it's really dissapointed that this seaweed issue is plaguing certain Caribbean locations. Totally sucks because the ocean is so nice and warm.
Any issues with booking dinner reservations?
Nope non at all. just make sure to do it as soon as you can. Some places book out fast!
Amazing hotel. 100000 % I recommended
Really a beautiful property
Is the Tomahawk steak included? or is that an extra cost? (JC Steakhouse)
i think it was included but i'm not sure. I get them mixed up with other resorts
What month did you go I see that its raining.
Hey wonderful video , was the buffet closed? How does it work?
Buffet wasn’t closed! That is an option still
We went last year and it was incredible. We have rebooked for this September. Great video!
Just can't go wrong with The Grand!!
@@TravelNoBS Going back in September as well. I loved the Grand. I just liked the pool at the Sunrise better.
did you go in 2022 or is it old? Haven’t seen any masks haha is it safe to travel to rn
this was 3 weeks ago so yeah x
From my point of view, travel in Mexico is safer than in the US. They take many safety measures to ensure safe travel (covid wise). We've been to Mexico 5 times in the last years since covid came about and each time it's been to a different resort (Well, except for coming to The Grand 3 times with and without our children). Can't wait to go back there in a couple months.
We went in mid November. I believe the resorts are taking great care to provide cleaning stations, added measures to prepare rooms, and even serve food. They require masks at all buffets and as you enter or leave restaurants. Always be cautious, but we have not have any issues.
grande or the sunrise ?
The Grand
How was the beach?
Great! They have sea weed but they have tractors that go out in the morning and clean it up 👍
@@TravelNoBS The beach is AWEFUL.. I believed your review until I saw this. Seeweed and smelly. Brown water. Nobody ever on it.
@@leonfern6077 How about planet Hollywood ? Do you know any resort have a nice beach ? Thank you
Boulangeirie is pronounces Boulanj Jerie
Thanks!! Need to work on my French!
Uuuuugh was enjoying the video until I saw the masks. The whole reason we are going to Mexico is to feel as free as possible and not even think of Covid
Covid is in every part of the world, including Mexico. They also need to protect themselves from the thousands of people from various countries who come to visit their beautiful country to "relax and not think of covid". I've traveled numerous times to Mexico to different resorts throughout the last 2 years and none of them are uninviting due to the workers wearing masks and they take the utmost care in keeping all their guests safe.
Yes, it is not enforced too well, but always better safe than sorry. Realistically you only need to wear masks when entering or leaving restaurants.
