Cancun Palace  T rating: 5

 

An introduction to Cancun Palace

The Cancun Palace pulls out all the stops to impress. Completely refurbished, this elegant resort is the perfect retreat. Sitting slap-bang between the Caribbean Sea and the Nichupte Lagoon, it looks out onto an opal-white slice of powder-soft sands. So you can flit between the shores and the swimming pool to your heart's content. It's also only a short bus ride to downtown Cancun when you fancy letting your hair down. If you've come to simply stay put and shake off your stresses though, you won't be disappointed. This is most definitely a 'here I am, pamper me' kind of place. You probably don't usually spend much time in your room, but here – it might be difficult to leave. Light, spacious and decked out in delicious creamy tones, you bag a flat screen LCD TV with satellite, luxurious bathrobes and a fabulous double whirlpool bath. And that's just a standard room. Most also have gorgeous ocean views. When you do venture downstairs, oodles of first-class facilities await. Cool down and stretch out on one of the sunbeds that are partially submerged in the pool. If you're feeling active, enjoy a game of tennis or go for the burn in the fitness centre. Or slow the pace right down and get pampered from top to toe in the soothing spa. After all that, you're probably ready to tuck into a slap-up meal. But with five top-notch restaurants to choose from, it's a difficult decision. If you fancy an elegant buffet feast, the 'El Mercado' serves a delicious selection of international dishes, or go Mexican in 'Frida'. Up the ante at one of the swish a la carte eateries. Tuck into the finest cuts at 'The Steak'. Twizzle some spaghetti at 'Leonardo', the Italian choice. Or try some Eastern promise at the oriental 'Miyako'. Decisions, decisions.
