We had a recent 5 night stay at Excellence Riveria Cancun. We enjoyed our stay and thought everyone there was fantastic, especially our morning tennis clinics with Alex. We thought the food was great but was slightly disappointed that some of the restaurants took over two hours from start to finish. While this is a very minor complaint, it would be nice to limit dining to an hour or hour and a half. Drinks and lounging were fantastic, wait staff in the excellence club were especially great. Staff would always be checking in to see if you needed anything, including your sunglasses being cleaned. The beach was clean, staff would be manicuring it in the mornings before heavy use. Rooms are starting to show their age but do not detract from the stay, but it would be nice to see an update. Transportation between the resort and the airport was a breeze, so that was a relief to be able to get from the airport tarmac to the resort in a little over an hour. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.
