As we entered through the front gate I could tell already that this was a different place then it was before. When we drove through, the inlaid brick work along the way and the attention to detail on the gardens reflected a sense of charm found only in the most discriminating resorts.

The reception desk area has been redone in rich woods, completely enclosed and air conditioned. Very noticeable was the new concierge desk to handle any and all requests, including massage appointments (plus a full spa opening in the spring), restaurant reservations – inside the resort or out, or whatever your whim. Next to the reception area is our beautiful newly air conditioned theater / lounge which is perfect for our new grand theatrical productions or set as a night club with comfortable lounge chairs and tables.

Even the main bar area has been enclosed and air conditioned, redesigned with wide open spaces and plush couches and lounge chairs. The bar itself has a luxurious granite top, is nice and long with plenty of room to be served or have your drink order taken and served directly from the comfort of your table.

As we glanced out from the bar we were all taken aback by our beach. The initial reports of the beach being washed away from the hurricane last year was tangible. However, Club Med experienced something different. As the beach did wash away from most of Cancun, being that resort is at the end of the island, the sand all washed down to the resort. So, as a result, the beach in front of Club Med is the largest it’s been in over 30 years and certainly currently the largest in all of Cancun. Adorned with palapas (thatched beach umbrellas) and lounge chairs, this is an idyllic and beautiful locale on a mostly private beach.

The newly renovated main restaurant, La Hacienda, has been entirely redone with 5 different themed dining areas – from the ‘Living Room’ to the ‘Library’ to the ‘Kitchen’, each dining experience is unique while you enjoy the delicious cuisine that is prepared fresh in front of you by expertly trained chefs and, of course, with an abundance of choices (don’t forget to try a piece of their world famous white chocolate bread).

And, let us not forget about the other restaurants: La Cazuelas our Mexican Fusion restaurant that sits waterside with beautiful views of the Caribbean and La Pergola, specializing in light fare throughout the day and with Mediterranean Tapas at night that offers excellent views of the beach, and Cancun Bay.

The completely renovated rooms with views of our tranquil lagoon and the gardens offer rich colors and décor, having the influence of the Mayan region, makes you feel comfortable and ‘at home’. They feature two twin beds adjustable to a king, bathroom with shower, air-conditioning, hair dryer, mini-fridge, coffee maker, iron & ironing board, clock radio/CD player, telephone, flat screen TV, and personal safes.

The new and spacious oceanfront Jade Suites offers a king size bed and a sofa. This beautiful room features enhanced amenities such as bathroom with separated bathtub and shower, concierge service, private transfers from the airport, room service, complementary laundry service, daily turndown service, Free Wifi and a computer in the room, bathrobe and slippers, deluxe branded toiletries, air-conditioning, hair dryer, daily stocked mini-fridge, coffee maker, iron & ironing board, clock radio/CD player, telephone, flat screen TV, personal safes and much more, all with a magnificent views of the ocean.

If its sight seeing that’s your interest, you can take in a free excursion to El Meco, an archeological site just north of Cancun that offers an initial immersion in to the life and culture of the rich Mayan history that is abundant in this area. This 2 hour jaunt is a perfect tour for families to do together. If you’re into experiencing more of the culture, they offer many different options to the likes of Chichen Itza, Xcaret, Coba, and Tulum. Each tour is enhanced by an expertly trained guide that will offer you an insight to the rich Mayan culture and history.
