We weren't sure what to expect because we had never stayed at this resort and read mixed reviews about Grand Oasis. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The bars and restaurants were excellent. The pool was our favorite spot and we stayed there daily open to close!!!! Would and have highly reccommend staying at the Grand Oasis to others!!!!
cacun was beautiful and pool was very nice, but could not recommend the resort, no pool side service if you need a drink you had to get up and wait in line for very weak drink. food was so-so after couple days it all seem the same..... i have stay at all-inclusive before where they they would be very well staff. did not seem the case here.
There was a lot of choices for dining. Scenery was great nice blue beach pool. The bars in hotel had great bartenders.
There are different levels of quality for the rooms. The "Spring Break" rooms are in bad shape and that pool area is definitely fun for the college crowd. The rooms for the "older" crowd are very nice and the pool area in that part of the resort is very relaxing. The lines at the bars are long and the food is okay, but has obviously been made in bulk.
Last October, my Wife, and I, enjoyed a seven night stay at Grand Oasis, Cancun. It was the best, pure vacation, we've ever had. The hotel complex fronts a long, wide, uncrowded, powdery white sand beach, with, of course, the warm,turqouise water. Fantastic architecture, with vast beautifully landscaped grounds. An incredible free formed, mosiac tile pool, -- that seems to meander for miles, features areas devoted to guests seeking either games/partying/excitement, or, quiet peaceful hamlets. The Hotel buildings and grounds were immaculately maintained, and the staff was courteous and attentive. The food was excellent at all the several, different themed restaurants, and dining venues. The location was great, --- in the quiet Hotel zone, --- yet, only a quick, inexpensive bus ride to the shopping malls, and clubs. The all inclusive value was outstanding.
My two friends and I went to the Grand Oasis as freshman in college. There is no doubt about it, it was definitely the place to be. The Grand Oasis takes MUCH better care of you than the regular one. I heard of many people that booked through the website, and the hotel became overbooked so they were transferred to a cheaper hotel and never returned money. Although the Grand still isn't a Ritz (or anything near) it is great if you want to party all day. The resort is far from family oriented. Although we were in the spring break wing, families were scarce while crazy college kids were everywhere. In my opinion, if you are looking for the crazy college spring break this is the place for you.
By far the most affordable and enjoyable vacation ever!!
The grand oasis had everything you would expect from an all inclusive. I would recommend booking a room in the main complex (shaped like a pyramid)
We had a great time. Beach was good, pools were nice and there were plenty of choices for dining and drinking.
My daughter-in-law suggested this through Cheap Caribbean and it seemed like an excellent value. We started reading reviews and got a little worried. Those worries were unfounded. We went in late September, which is off-season. My wife and I met our son, his wife and their two young children at the airport since we were coming from different cities. The transportation we secured through the package was waiting on our arrival. We arrived at the hotel just in time for check-in which went seemlessly. Although we had adjoining rooms, they did not connect. We asked to move and they changed our room within an hour and we could now connect through the inside door. The room was nice and clean, not spectacular, but the view right on the caribbean was wonderful. Air conditioning and plumbing worked fine and the bed was comfortable. The beach was a little rocky but we spent most of our time in the pools. They were great! Not crowded and the swim up bars made for a good time. I didn't have any issues with the drinks. The restaurants were varied and we found the service to be excellent. The food in the buffet was good, but did not vary much. The specialty restaurants offered some nice choices. Our wedding anniversary was on our last night and they brought us a bottle of champagne, unsolicited. We thouroughly enjoyed the total experience. I'd go back there again in a heartbeat. For the record, we're going back to the Yucatan Peninsula in November with another group and just the all-inclusive portion is going to cost more than our Cheap Caribbean vacation!
