We loved the ME Cancun
Ontario Jan 19, 2007
Upon arrival we had a very quick checkin and were shown to a beautiful oceanview room. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and gave us a bracelete that proved we were with the Al plan.....it was never a problem.
My husband and I have just returned from the ME Cancun...and we were very impressed. Before leaving, we knew that there we some issue's with the hotel's reopening...and were assured thru selloffvacation's and Airtransat that all AL plans would be honoured as the hotel is swiching to the EP plan.
Upon arrival we had a very quick checkin and were shown to a beautiful oceanview room. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and gave us a bracelete that proved we were with the Al plan.....it was never a problem. Although they ask that you sign for everything you order, including water.....we had no extra charge's on our bill.
We asked for a coffee maker which was promtly delivered.
We kept an open mind...and knew that the hotel was still under renovation's and you could see new addition's every day.
We learned that the hotel was only filled at 19% capaciaty and we were treated like king.s We were waited on hand and foot.
All drink's are served in glass...at the pool and the beach.
Did I mention they have bali bed's on the beach...Ohhhh so romantic. They were putting up beautiful hammick's pool side the day we were leaving.
They couldn't do enough for you...they alway's had a smile and they wanted to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.
There were some people who complained about everything, and we ignored them. Some people just don't want to be happy.
We loved the hotel...it was beautiful. We had no complaint's.
There is lots of construction in Cancun....on both side's of our hotel but we never noticed the noice...and found it really neat to watch. It's amazing. We were told it take's 6 to 9 month's, 24 hour's a day to rebuild a hotel start to finish...they work hard.
The food was fabulous.....we enjoyed our lunch everyday near the ocean. The Silk and Salt at night offeres all kind's of food..and athough were not big fish eater's.....we found the flank steak melted in your mouth. The waiter's just wanted to make you happy and they gave us excellent service. The morning breakfast was buffett...and had everything your heart desired...it was yummy. The internet cafe was free also...we'd enjoy a nice drink and email home every night.
Alex who is the lifeguard was alway's keeping a watchful eye on everyone....the beach was red flagged every day as the wind's were very high..and it was dangerous to swim in the ocean. It was incredible to watch. We walked the beach everyday and was amazed at the amount of distruction still left. It makes you realise just how lucky we are.
We loved the pool's.......the main pool is huge, crystal clear and the infinity pool was beautiful.....flowing into the adult pool. We never had to worry about getting a spot at any of the pool's and moved all over the place.
I think you have to go with an open mind on any holiday, how can you be unhappy in Mexico....it's all what you make it...and your happiness is truly up to you.
We would love to go back to the same hotel again..but Im sure it'll be way out of our price range...we got an awesome deal.
The hotel is within a 5 minute walk to the La Isla Mall....it a lovely stroll at night, lots of security around..and we were never bothered like we have been on previous trip's to Mexico, or the Dominican. You can take the local bus for 65 cent's.....we went all over the place. They have a Walmart..and Flee market 28...and a Luxuary Mall about 10 minute's down the strip.....they have Louie Vuitton, Fendi, Coach...etc...just like a mall from home.
I'm sure you'll have a fantastic time....OLAAaaaaaaaaa
