Thank you for the video. So sorry your daughter was sick. You and your husband are hilarious and I appreciate this content and humor so much! Cheers!
Wow, thank you for the kind words (not so rude) Gert! Glad that you liked the content.
This is the best honest and most in-depth review I've seen. I needed this video! Thanks for showing the menus, the kids areas, the food places, the beach, and especially the show. I couldn't find much about the entertainment. I'm looking for a smaller scale resort but geared towards families and this looks like what I want. You know what I especially noticed? No huge lines for food or drinks. Huge plus in a smaller resort.I'm looking at booking in September.
Thank you so much, that means a ton. I tried to make a video that covered everything that I couldn't find in a video when I was researching this location. I hope that you have a GREAT time on your vacation!!
Family Vacay to Wyndham in a week so this in depth review helped a lot! thanks
I have to say this is one of the best vlog for family friendly resort. My 9 yr old daughter would absolutely love this resort. Thank you so much for this ❤❤
Thank you so much! It was my pleasure to create this, so glad that it helped :D
Thanks for the video! My family and I were there in July and had a wonderful time. It was fun to see the hotel again:) (beach tacos🔥🔥🔥)
Ha thanks! Glad to hear that it was a good experience for you and your family as well.
Thank you for making this video. I’m planning Cancun trip, we have 2 little girls. It’s very helpful!
Thank you for watching and glad that it was helpful! We are going back to Cancun, visiting the Villa Del Palmar Cancun, so another video will pop up in Feb / March reviewing that resort!
Thank you so much for such good information. It’s very helpful we are also visiting in fall break. 🎉
So glad that you found it helpful! :D enjoy your trip... wish we could go back soon.
@@perfectpals thank you! Just one more question Wyndham alltra don’t have shuttle service. How did you go form airport to the resort?
@@iqragulzar828 Hi! Sorry for the delay. When you book your trip direct through Wyndham Alltra, they give you the option to add transportation. We added whatever transportation was offered and it worked out perfectly. It wasn't clear during the booking process that the transportation includes BOTH when you arrive and when you depart - can't beat the price knowing that. I can't find the actual company that provided the travel, but when going through the booking process with the hotel we added "Package Name: Round Trip Private Standard Airport Transfer"
Thanks for sharing, I’m booking!
Have a blast!
this vlog/review was gold! adorable family! we are contemplating booking here, and I think your video sealed the deal for us!
any chance you happened to see what their top shelf tequila is?!
Thank you so much, and hope that you have a blast!
This is great to hear. Reviews can be so trickly. We are planning for next year with our 3 boys!! Are there buffets options all day?
My kids are not the best at sit down restaurants 😊 Ventanas looks amazing though
How long was your trip?
I don't think that you'll regret it if you book here! It was pretty perfect for our family - Camp Alltra was amazing for the kids and also so you can get a break, and I know they have those rooms with 3 beds for kids which would be perfect for your family. I *think* that only the Ventana's buffet was open all day, the downstairs one (right underneath Ventanas) was only open for breakfast and dinner (when it became the Asian place.) I hope that you and your family have a blast!
@@perfectpals thank you so much. It helps to here from a real person lol. Yes we plan to get that 3 bed bunk sort of room. This helped a lot. I will def secure for next year. I know that’s strange asking now but We plan a year out to budget with our large family.
@@stacyb6461 Totally get it! It's my pleasure to help.
Great video. Thanks for sharing your experience. Would you recommend for a couple celebrating an anniversary?
Thank you! If you don't mind kids being around then yes. But I know that there are plenty of adult only resorts in MX.
Great video! Ive been looking at this resort, and this video is super helpful. As a first time all-inclusive visitor I was wondering. What would be in your opinion, some acceptable tipping amounts for drinks, dinners, and snacks?
Hi! Technically it's a "tip free" resort but we tipped like we would typically tip here in the USA. I believe that I brought $300 cash and divvied that out over the 5-6 days we were there. Plus we also tipped the kids camp attendants a hunk of cash at the end of our trip.
Hi! I enjoyed your vidéo. I'll be at this hotel in april. I was wondering how does it works for diner réservation. Thanks!
Thank you! And awesome, I hope that you have a GREAT time! They do not take reservations. To get into the Italian place, your best bet is to get there 10 - 15 minutes before it opens to get in if you want to eat right at 5pm or whenever it opens. I went there like 10 minutes after it opened at 5pm, and the next available time to eat there would've been 7:30pm at night, so at least when we were there, it was the most difficult to get into. The other places didn't have a wait when we went to eat. But the busyness of each restaurant probably depends night by night. Have a blast when you're there!
This was helpful. Question, they say not to drink tap water so how do you deal with ice in you alcohol? did you avoid ice? Thanks! ❤
We did avoid the H2O as a precaution. I had my Dr. prescribe something in case we ended up sick from the H20 but none of us got sick. We used bottled H20 to brush our teeth and never put the tap water into our mouths. However, we did use ice in our drinks and had no issues. I did order a Coke once and it tasted different and my tummy felt rumbly after, so I decided to avoid it - the Coca Cola came from the tap not a can so was probably mixed with their H20.
how much should one tip each meal?
Thank you for reviewing! Is room service available 24hrs?
Hi Kimberly! I honestly don't know the answer to that question, we never used room service during our stay.
Where was the Ventana restaurant? Is this walking distance from your hotel or on the strip somewhere. Also the Salsa taco on beach place
Hi! To access Ventana, when you walk into the resort pass through the lobby / check in area. Before you were to head outside to the pool area, take a right, past the Mexican restaurant (Casa De Rosa) and follow that hall and you'll walk right into Ventanas. To access the salsa beach taco place, if you visit the beach bar at the hotel, walk past it and the little taco place will be on your left. Hope this helps!
What mode of transportation did you guys use from the airport to your hotel? Thank you
We used Discova (I believe is what it was called!) By booking direct with the hotel, they offer you transportation. Highly recommend, it was a very good experience. You'll have a to do a little waiting at the airport but nothing unreasonable.
From what age is the kids camp available. I have a 22 months old do they have activities for toddlers. Or just for older kiddos
Hi Jennifer, I did not see younger kids in the camp - you might want to email them and ask what the age limitation is? Sorry I don't know the answer to this!
Hello is all of the food free?Also did any of the restaurants make salmon?
Hi! The resort is all inclusive, so all food, beverages AND alcohol are FREE! I do not remember seeing Salmon on the menus, but I'm honestly not 100% sure.
Solo traveler here. Would you if you had choices stay here if you were a solo traveler?
It probably depends on what you're looking for as a solo traveler. If you're OK with having families / kids around (not like an overload, but a normal amount that you'd expect at a hotel or resort with families vacationing) then yes, it was a great experience. It quiets down later in the evening from what I understand, but we only stayed up until 9 or 10pm any given night, so couldn't really tell you what the nightlife is like anyway. Apparently the pool and ocean area are still popular places to hang at night, so I heard. So this isn't like a "party vibe" hotel but you can find that outside of the hotel at clubs and what not. I hope that helps?
From which state u travelled to cancun. Was it direct flight
Cleveland, Ohio
Do they have their own airport transportation?
Yes they do, when you book your trip direct through the resort you will have the option to choose transportation which includes both trips to and from the airport!
silly question....does all inclusive meaning all meals and drinks included in the resort?
There’s no such thing as a silly question! Yes all inclusive means that all food and drinks - including alcohol (name brand) is included - you don’t need to pay anything more. We brought cash so I could tip but the hotel states that you don’t have to tip because it’s “included” but the staff works really hard to make for a great experience
@@perfectpals thanks for this info. because of your youtube, we pulled the trigger on this and looking very much forward to it. another question; we have been trying to set up the shuttle situation through DISCOVA by phone but unsuccessful. Did you do this online or over phone? any tips? thx!!!
Hi@@agentgringo1996 ! I believe what happened was that the hotel / Discova emailed shuttle information closer to our departure - like a week prior to going to Cancun. I remember it was quite easy once they emailed me transportation details. I hope this helps and I hope that you enjoy your trip.
