I've been to Xcaret Arte twice. Once in 2022, three days after returning home, we booked for 2023 stay. Absolutely the best all-inclusive experience ever. There are 2 separate properties. The family side Xcaret Mexico, and the adult side Xcaret Arte. Different restaurants, clubs, entertainment, and pools with no access to the other property. It's about $800 a night, but with the airport lounge, free transportation to and from the airport, and all of the Xcaret parks included. Its soooo totally worth it.
@@3Days3Nochesyou can go to the family side only if you book the room option with “adults” or are staying in “casa artistas” no one from xcaret mexico can go to Arte.
Honeymooned to Xcaret Arte. By far the best all inclusive I have been to for the money. The serivce and architecture will blow you away. It is secluded from the main hotel zones in mexico. If you choose Arte (adults only) then the family resort has no access, therefore you will not see any kids. Absolutely worth it.
I went to Arte March 2023, great for foodies and those who enjoy luxury surroundings. They have a speakeasy nightclub hidden at the back of the resort which was fun, plus rooftop pools on top of most guest room buildings which all guests can enjoy (with the exception of the Artistas oceanfront building). The only thing I didn't like was the layout, it can be confusing to move around the buildings unless you go to ground level and work it that way. Would definitely go again.
Le Blanc is the best! Just got back and absolutely loved it! Everything was top notch for the most part. Your videos were very helpful by the way as well. Thanks!
@@3Days3Noches yes, very much so! However the only thing that was a negative were the super pushy sales people for the memberships. The sales meeting was not very pleasant.
Thank you for the great video! For this summer, my husband and I are debating between Le Blanc Cancun and Excellence Playa Mujeres, and we just can't decide...😅
If you want to have any type of fun and want a room with outdoor space then go with EPM. If you want to just relax, and like long dinners then Le Blanc. I also like EPM better bc no sales pitch or membership crap
Just to add, I just got back from Playa del Carmen which is about 40-60 minutes from the Cancun airport. It’s not adults only but still very nice and laid back. It’s called the iberostar tucan. It’s in playacar which is a gated community filled with luxury homes and resorts. The best shuttle company that goes there seems to be world 2 meet(W2M). I highly recommend you try it sometime and do a video on it. You would do it justice.
Should we visit Cancun in June/July?? Is it miserable with humidity? What resort do u recommend that’s in central hotel area? We want a nice beach u can swim in and walk along. Thx
Totally agree with your assessment of Le Blanc. We stayed February 2022. To add my own comment… it’s quiet! The music at the main pools is melodic, not upbeat, and sometimes we couldn’t even hear it. That was a downside for us, we like the upbeat music at the pool, but understand some people don’t, which is fine. The property is beautiful and the staff is amazing. We did enjoy the evening entertainment at Cavo with the upbeat bands. The hot tub area is awesome, especially if it’s a bit chilly during your stay or if you’re a wimp like me, lol.
Hi we are going to the Azul Beach Resort Riviera Maya in May for 2 weeks, was wondering have you ever stayed there? Any suggestions on day trips would also be appreciated. Regards, Frank
We are going to le blanc for our wedding anniversary soon, thanks for the tips on sales pitch, would hate to waste time on vacation to listen to some sales pitch especially considering how much we are paying to stay there
I’ve been on your TH-cam helping me decide to book a party of 7 to stay at a resort for my birthday I like something that has night life at resorts like shows entertainment live music. Any recommendations
Thanks for watching. Sooooo many factors go into it. Budget is a major one! We loved Excellence Playa Mujeres but lots of resorts have great nightly entertainment and horrible other things
@@3Days3Noches Watching your youtube channels, you seem familiar with Isla Mujeres. The Impression is near Punta Sur, close to Garrafon park so you can walk there. Punta sur is also walkable. They offer bike tour every morning to visit punta sur, and the cemetery. You can also pay to rent a gold cart on the resort to explore the island
It’s actually going to be on the mainland just north of Excellence Playa Mujeres, not on Isla Mujeres. Although it would be amazing to have one on Isla Mujeres. The new resort is called Excellence Coral Playa Mujeres coming early 2025
Hi! I’m looking for a lively & entertaining all inclusive resort for our first vacation to Cancun. Me & my fiancé are bringing my 18 year old son & 22 year old daughter & her boyfriend in celebration of my son’s high school graduation. I’d love a beach with soft sand & trees, we love swimming in the ocean & spending time at the beach, but my daughter loves infinity pools. We aren’t looking for rest & relaxation. I’d like adults only but a young crowd. Upgrading is an option. I don’t have any memberships. A resort with lots of activities like kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, table tennis, pickle ball, & volleyball. My budget is mid range. We want good food options. Do you have any recommendations?
Arte and Mexico are 2 separate properties,with its own restaurantes, swimming areas and activites, in arte all areas are adults only, you can access the restaurants and facilities in hotel Mexico if you book a room in casa de los artistas, but people from hotel Mexico cant enter the arte area.
I have only been to Le Blanc Cabo and I compare it to Atelier Playa Mujeres. LBC has become unaffordable to me, so getting the same feel and experience for a lower price at Atelier is why I went twice in 2023.
I have been anticipating your 2024 review of Atelier Playa Mujeres as I believe you were planning a stay there in mid January(?). When might that review be posted?
@@3Days3Noches completely understand and thanks for the prompt response. We are booking Atelier for March and despite the many reviews and vlogs I've researched, it's not clear whether the extra $2K for INSPIRA is worth it. I understand that Inspira gets you the "vip" check in, daytime access to the Inspira pool/bar and a better view room. An ocean view (ov) is important (even if partial), but all of the Inspira ov rooms are booked, leaving only non-Inspira ov. Food and drinks are important but that should be same for all guests?
@courtneye.3191 we were not able to upgrade to inspire either. They were all booked. You def don’t need to but I would have liked it for the beach side access. It was almost impossible to find chairs at the beach and the service wasn’t really good there. Same with the pool. All the chairs were taken by 9 am. But in general I don’t think you need to.
@@3Days3Noches Thanks. We do have a tentative booking for an Inspira Terrace room (golf course view) and I'm wondering if being "Inspira" level it would have partial ocean view. As mentioned, room view is important, and also, variety of outdoor eating options (prefer time outdoors when on vacation). Most vlogs posted thus far are based on Inspira level so it's a guessing game. Your review will be helpful.
@courtneye.3191 are you apart of Atelier fans facebook group? Personally I think I would have liked the resort better if I was able to upgrade. I wouldn’t return mostly because of the chair game at the beach and pool. And the beach setup was weird.
Hello there! My family and I are going to Tulum in a week.Do we need the tourist card? Where can we pay the Visitax? Thank you for Channel.Been learning q kot for our trip.
I stayed at Hotel Xcaret Arte in November 2023 and must say the place is amazing. The photo in your video from the room with the hammock facing the stage looks to be the room that my wife and I stayed in. I have a photo that looks like the same angle and level. We are going back to Cancun/Riviera Maya/Playa Del Carmen in 2025 and I have not been able to find a resort that has the same exotic feeling. Everything else looks like square, white, sterile buildings on the outside. If you need pictures or video footage, let me know. Arte is adults only. Did not see any children. If I had a con, it would be the lack of American fare in regards to food for picky eaters. This was an issue with one of the members in our party (8 adults). One thing to keep in mind is to make sure and fill out your Wish List as soon as you book. Some of the restaurants that are reservation only and some of the excursions are very popular and are fully booked. We did not know about the Wish List and so we submitted our Wish List 3 months in advance and did not get everything we wanted.
@@3Days3Noches The other thing I want to point out is that the service is second to none. When we asked where something was or how to get there, the staff members stopped what they were doing and walked us to the location. One day my wife and I slid down one of the slides on the lazy river/moat and dropped her eye glasses (her only pair). She cannot see without them. The water in the area was 27 feet deep. We told one of the life guards. A few hours later we're in our room and the life guard showed up with her eye glasses. They sent a scuba diver to fetch them for her. What other resort does that? Xcaret Arte is the bar that I judge other resorts by and so far nothing has compared.
