Hotel Marina El Cid - Our Home Away From Home

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 30 Oct 2024
This is our third visit to the Hotel Marina El Cid Spa and Beach Resort. We thoroughly enjoyed our month-long stay. The facilities (suites, restaurants, bars, entertainment venues, and pools were impeccably maintained. Moreover, the food and beverage service did not disappoint.

Best of all was the hospitality of the staff. We would like to single out our two butlers, Are and Manual. They were always friendly and attentive to our needs. They proactively made dinner reservations and recommended activities based on our expressed and regularly checked in on us.

We availed ourselves of the nightly entertainment especially the production shows. We really enjoyed evenings spent listening to Claudia, one of the vocalists who performed at various lounges and bars during the week. She sang songs from a wide range of musical genres and inspired the audience to sing and dance.

We are looking forward to returning to El Cid in January when the weather will be perfect!

We desperately needed a week to relax & unwind. No tours or major acrtivites, just relaxed at the pool & shore, and played my mandolin on the balcony. And, ate real well!

Rain for the first three days we were. Heavy rain and high winds. Our room flooded the first night. Water came thru the door that wasn’t water tight. Hotel offered to move us to another room. My wife was having none of that. “The view is to beautiful.” Restaurants mostly buffet with average food. Tried to make reservations for the specialty restaurant. No luck all full. You could get a reservation at 930pm. Pools were great and so were the hot tubs. Wait staff at the pools very attentive and friendly. Didn’t get our room clean for three days. They did mop it after it flooded the first night. The beach is poor. They have put cement wave breaks in the water that make it very dangerous to swim in the water. The adjacent beach to the north of the resort was covered with large rocks. The beach is basically unusable. Royal Solaris Cancun next time.

Room tip: The are a lot of all inclusive resorts in the Cancun area. My wife chose this one because it was offered by Costco. I would pass on this one

Had an excellent time and had excellent service. It wasn’t crowded this time of year so there’s no issue finding a good chair on the beach or pool. So many pools depending on what you prefer. Lots of food options for all the meals. We did a bike ride into the local town that was no extra cost. There’s also kayaks and paddle boards free to use. Our butlers for our building were so accommodating and arranged reservations for each night. We did 1 excursion to Tulum and a cenote and we felt safe and had great service. We also renewed our wedding vows on the beach and it was beautiful. There was an evening show each night that the whole family could enjoy. We had kids 19, 16, and 12. The spa was a wonderful experience. We didn’t use the platinum alcohol package as much as we thought. It was a little inconvenient to find a platinum bar.

This is a great resort. From the moment we arrived and met Juan we were amazed at how friendly and helpful everyone was. Our butlers, Erik and Alejandro were amazing as were the great personnel at the lobby bar, especially Carlos, Noe, and Lemuel. Gilberto and Angel kept our drinks flowing at the main pool everyday! We highly recommend this resort!!
