Secrets The Vine Cancun - Adults Only - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"This is by far the best all inclusive we've stayed at. We loved the contemporary styling of the room (ocean view king suite) and public spaces. The food in the specialty restaurants was outstanding for the most part. We took advantage of the Preferred Club and were not disappointed; the club pool and Olio restaurant were reserved for club members during the day, making it a nice haven from the louder lower pools and busy restaurants. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I was worried by some of the negative reviews I had read but was pleasantly surprised by the whole experience. If I had to complain, the pools could have been cooler and there were some minor cosmetic maintenance issues, particularly around the preferred club pool. The food really was the big surprise. No reservations at the specialty restaurants were accepted so you could wait at peak times, but the quality, variety and presentation was superior by far too anything we've seen at an all inclusive. This really did have the feel of a higher end resort and we enjoyed every minute of our seven day stay."
