![]() They were so pushy, and we were so hungry and tired that we just wanted to get to our room. Free $25 buffet for an hour presentation and they will put $450 on your room as credit. Once we checked in, we were then passed onto another person who was extremely pushy about signing us up for a timeshare breakfast. You wear it in the pool and shower and ours worked half the time letting us in the room. They put a bracelet around our wrist which is your room key and nothing more. They do not offer this bonus at the resort at time of check in. ![]() If you put money on your room prior to your arrival, they offered to match a certain amount (i.e.: you put $2000 on your room, and they add another $400 to that). They discussed putting money on your room since they are not an all-inclusive resort so that you do not have to take your wallet everywhere with you. They gave us free drink coupons which got shoved into our bags and forgotten about. They gave us a paper map and told us to download the app. ![]() We had been up since 3am Pacific time to catch our flights and now it was 6:30pm, we lost three hours in the time difference, and we were tired and hungry. ![]() Once at the Grand Mayan lobby, we were directed to the RCI counter for check in. We drove by our building not knowing it yet. After a few minutes of waiting and confusion of what was going on, we were directed onto the resort shuttle and taken to the Grand Mayan lobby for the actual check in process. We then parted ways with our luggage and were walked through the Central Lobby to the resort shuttle. Once on the carts, they sprayed the luggage with a disinfectant. It would have been faster to take a taxi.Ĭheck in process: The shuttle dropped us off at the "Central Lobby" at Vidanta where they unloaded our luggage from the shuttle and reloaded into carts. They say the shuttle is complimentary, but you actually pay for it through your room charges when you check out. Once on the shuttle, we had a 45-minute drive to Vidanta. From the time we landed to the time we got on the shuttle it was 2 hours. We met our shuttle driver outside who said it was a 20-minute wait to leave but we stood there for about 30-minutes waiting prior to getting on the shuttle. It took us one hour to get our luggage after we landed. We were picked up at Cancun airport by a shuttle that we reserved through the resort. The plunge pool on our patio was cold, too cold to get into so the birds used it as a bird bath. The noise had us up early in the morning and kept us up late at night. The shuttle stop for our building was right next to our room so we heard the shuttles stop and start constantly. The condo slept the five of us just fine and could have slept another 5 (although would have had 4 people in the living room on the trundle beds.Ĭons: Our room was overlooking the road which the resort shuttles run on (train of golf carts) from 5am until midnight every single day. There is a full-size fridge, stove and microwave to use along with all of the dishes and utensils required. ![]() The kitchen is fully stocked to cook (however, we did not cook) but we did buy snacks to have in the condo. Pros: The condo was a nice set up with two large bathrooms including two large tubs. We stayed in Building 9 at the Grand Mayan on the second floor from Friday Nov. We stayed at Vidanta Riviera Maya in the Grand Mayan Resort in Playa Del Carmen in the Yucatan area of Mexico. We exchanged our RCI timeshare points to stay here for one week (7 nights) in a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo with a full kitchen and plunge pool on the patio.
