Let me start by saying that I've traveled to 13 countries, lived abroad for more than 5 years in Germany, Cozumel, and Cabo San Lucas and currently reside in California. I've seen all types of hotels, and this was exactly what I was expecting. A great value for the money. My husband and I have two kids, one 12 and... more

I'm a 46 year old mom and stayed with my 17 year old daughter the week of August 2-9, 2008. Overall...we both enjoyed it alot! The price was right for my single mom income. The place was so so clean! Very small, no crowds, on the quiet side--quaint! I will admit...our first day there, the boats anchored just of the... more

The hotel service in general was a disappointment. The food was horrible. To top it all I made 2 phone calls to Florida for a 1 minute duration and 2 minute duration only to come back to the States to find out that I was charged $41.91 for a 1 minute call and $41.94 for a 3 minute call. more

We stayed at the Grand Coco Bay for a grand total of one night the last week in July. I was traveling with my Husband and two small children 7yrs & 8yrs old. The shuttle took us about 45mins from Cancun airport to the resort. That was fine until we drove through some very uncomfortable, run down, Ghetto type neighbour... more

My wife and I just returned from a 7 night stay at the Grand Coco Bay Resort in Playa Del Carmen. This was our first time visiting Mexico, will returned but not to a 3 star hotel. As we approach our hotel destination we were alarmed and almost afraid of the surroundings where the resort was located. Inside the hotel... more

We stayed at the Grand Coco Bay (GCB) from June 29 to July 6, 2008. It was not the place that I thought it would be. If I had been in Florida and had a rental car I would have cancelled my reservation and drove down the road and found a nicer place, and there are nicer places. If I... more

We stayed here July 19th- 26th with our 6 yr old daughter. It was our 19th trip to the Playa del Carmen area. Our second stay at Grand Coco Bay. I had become leary after reading several bad reviews but we booked for this trip anyway. We prefer a quiet resort that isn't crowded. We also want a short walk... more

Oh gosh where to start!! First thing we went in July as we always do for vacation, and I did some research on different resorts in Playa because we had never been there. I found the Grand Coco Bay Resort and read some of the reviews which weren't to good, but my husband and our travel agent talked me into... more

My husband and I spent 7 days at Grand Coco Bay. We travel about 3 times a year and booked this hotel as we enjoy all that 5th ave provides, bars, restaurants etc... So we chose the hotel to have an average hotel on the beach and utilize it fro breakfast, lunch and drinks. Beach.... its a great beach, excellent... more

Our experience is as a couple in our late 20s/early 30s with no children. We stayed at the Grand Coco Bay hotel for 5 nights from June 16-21. Overall - it's just ok. Here are some good and bad aspects of our trip: THE GOOD: Small hotel = less crowded. Room was clean and everything worked. We tipped the maid... more
