Gran Costa Real Cancun
Hotel Information: Barcelo Costa Cancun All Inclusive attracts families, young adults, and couples seeking casual, active holidays without the formality of restaurant dress codes.
Amenity highlights: At the compact resort's center is a large, free-form swimming pool that includes a children's section and shallow-water shelves for relaxing on lounge chairs. The 75-yard beach of fine, nearly white sand alongside the resort includes volleyball and soccer nets, features thatched-roof palapas for shade, and provides access to the Caribbean Sea, which is usually calm in this part of Cancún.
Insider tip: Some 200 yards from the resort--across a bridge spanning a narrow channel between the Caribbean Sea and Nichupté Lagoon--is an observation tower. Passengers can buy tickets to enjoy panoramic views of Cancún and the sea.
Designed like a Mediterranean village facing the sea, Barcelo Costa Cancun All Inclusive offers 357 guestrooms and studios in five-to-seven-story buildings colored pale gray with white roofs and blue glass. Rooms include step-out balconies or patios with garden, pool, or ocean views. Studios include balconies or patios furnished with tables and chairs offering garden, pool, or ocean views. Flat-screen, 27-inch televisions have DVD players.
Cool, pale decor features white walls and ceilings, ivory-colored furniture, slate-colored tile floors with red-marble accents, pale-yellow bedspreads with terra-cotta-colored throw pillows, contemporary chrome floor lamps, and Mayan-inspired art on walls. Small bathrooms contain glassed-in stall showers (no tubs) and red-marble vanities. Ceiling fans offer a cooling alternative to rooms and studios' air conditioning.
