Great Time
We got the privilege package and it was worth it. All of the staff were very helpful and cheerful. Food was very good. Liked the Japanese restaurant the best (order the Saki). My wife loved the Spa. The pools are clean and beautiful. Our room was very nice and clean. We were greeted each night by a towel sculpture made by the housekeeping staff. We enjoyed the free shopping tour of Cancun and Xel-Ha park was awesome. We would like to go back again because there was just too much to do there in one day.
My wife and I had a blast. Great value! The hotel was clean. Room was very nice. Food was okay. You need to make reservations for better restaurants in hotel. We will definitely use Cheap Caribbean again!

Changes in the Mayan Riviera....
Just got back from the Ocean Coral & Turquesa (OC&T) on the Mayan Riviera. This is my 3rd trip to that area and my 2nd in two years. The OC&T is a very nice, modern resort. Well maintained with 3 pools and a large beach. It was a great value in that 6 days, 5 nights cost us $1250 per person complete flying from NJ to Cancun. The airfare was $575 so the hotel with food was only about $100 per day. Can't beat that. I've been to 8 all-inclusives around the Carib and the food at OC&T was average except that it worked very well for us because they did have excellent fresh salad and fruit as we've gone to a more plant based diet this year. These Caribbean resorts seem to change hands quite frequently. 2 years ago we stayed at what was the "Paradisus Riviera" which has become the "Now". When we were there I instantly said it was by far the best all-inclusive food I had found. We rode to the airport with a couple who had just stayed there as the "Now" and they said the food was horrible. I love the Mayan riviera, but was VERY disappointed this time to see that the ocean is being abused. I love to snorkel and as soon as we got settled I grabbed my fins and went in. I soon realized that the previously pristine ocean now had many pieces of PLASTIC TRASH floating in it like cups and food wrappers. This was not a fault of the hotel, as we walked toward Cancun a few miles and found garbage in the water everywhere. I questioned hotel staff about it and noone admitted to knowing anything about it. I hope it's temporary. I researched it on the web and one site said it's from the cruise ships and is a chronic problem in the area. It wasn't like that 2 years ago, but someone should look into it. We still had a great time, but hardly anyone was swimming in the ocean. I attached a couple of pics.

Is the beach rocky?12 answers

This resort has a white sand beach, but there are also coral formations so there is the possibilty for coral to wash up on the shore.
JenCC
Not at all. It was very nice.

Not at all

No, it was sandy. We stayed at a nearby hotel a few years earlier and the beach was very much a coral reef beach, but this beach was sandy. There was a lot of seaweed, and no shells at all.
Janna13
not a rock (or seashell) on it!
lduha
Not Rocky but does not have the beautiful turquise water like other parts of Mexico.
Anonymous
No it's beautiful soft beaches on Paradise Island.
Sundai
no rocks...little waves...just beautiful
joweeep
The beach is not rocky - nice white sand. There is a lot of seaweed washed up on shore, but does not interfere with your ability to walk along the beach or swim. The water drops off fairly quickly but you can still wade out about 30-40 feet before it reaches your waist. Gentle waves on the beach because it's protected by the reef about 1/2 mile out.
RockyMtnSunseeker
The beach was pure powder. I live in Miami and its nicer than South Beach by far!!!
acpo2000
No - it is very fine, powdery white sand. Seaweed does wash up daily, but the resort removes it from the beach.
Nashvegasduo
no the beach was not rocky, and in the water it was nice and sandy too! no problems with rockiness like up in cancun

I never stayed at this resort. it ooked nice from the outside though.

This resort offers 7 restaurants to choose from with the standard all-inclusive plan and none of them require reservations. The dining options include everything from Asian, to American, to Italian cuisines. With this much variety it would be hard to be unsatisfied.
JenCC
I am a fairly picky eater but found there to be plenty of options for food and didnt starve on vacation. However, I cannot say I gained weight it was that good but I didnt go hungry. There was always something you could find and at dinner if we visited the al la carte restaurant and there wasnt anything on there I found I liked, it was nice to know we could go to the buffet and find something there.
burton98
We found the specialty restrauants offered very good selections. The buffett breakfast was good with them making on demand omelets and eggs to order. The rest of the buffett food was ok.
stat
The food was not good, there was no real variety. We expected to have some wonderful seafood since staying at a beach resort, and the only seafood or steak options were priced above and beyond the 'all inclusive', and the price was right around $40 for a small lobster tail or a small steak. The food was great at our last resort, 5star presentation as well.
Janna13
food was very good for an all inclusive.......fresh, tasty, well cooked. we ate at the buffet, the beach buffet, and 3 of the specialty restaurants and all was good.
lduha
Not worse or better than other all-inclusives I've been to. Some are quite good like the Villa Marina and others quite horrible like the italian restaurant!
Anonymous
The breakfast and lunch buffets had some decent things as long as you weren't too picky, some things were pretty bad though. Could've been better overall. Snack bars were open all day and had typically junk food/fast food. Didn't eat at the buffet for dinner (wouldn't), but tried most of the restaurants open only for dinner. They were much better in quality and service.
DetroitSMX
Food was amazing! And, the finer resturants no extra charge, first come first serve basis. I talked to alot of people in airport who hated there resort. They could not give you enough, and if you could not find what you like, I can't even imagine that!!
Trudi
The food was okay but nothing to rave about. However, if you go with the Privilege Package eat ther every night. The food was 4-Star.
dholiver409
the food was nice, the buffet had alot of fish, but there are other a la carte resturants, like an italian, japanese with a hibachi show, and a place for simple steak and potatoes! also u can get regular burgers and fries by the pool! i loved the food...
joweeep
I found the food provided at the main meals to be good. Certainly comparable to other resorts at which I have stayed.
The "restaurant" choices were fine. I think some people expect to get "real" Italian or Japanese at an all-inclusive resort in Mexico. (Which I think is an inherently flawed expectation.) I heard both positive and negative reviews about the same "restaurants," so I think it becomes a matter of taste and expectation.

Not sure was included in package, which was very convienent!
Trudi
$80 USD for round trip vouchers through Olympus Tours.
GoBuckeyes
Our shuttle was included in the "all inclusive" deal, however the resort stated a taxi to Cancun airport would be about $50 - $70 USD.
Nashvegasduo
we paid $120 round trip private van. I think it held up to 6 people.
2timesayear
$45.00 per person round trip. It's a real good deal.
SGTMAJ
When we booked our trip, transportation to the resort and back to the airport at end of trip were both included with the trip cost. Ask the call taker about that before booking for sure.
GMAF
the airport shuttel to the resort was included in the cheap caribian package, both ways.
if you take a taxi it would be about 20.00

Is the Privilege Service worth the extra $300+11 answers
It seems just for easy check in/out, premium drinks, priority seating at resaraunts I need to pay $300+. What are your thoughts?
11 months ago
The Rock
We paid for the upgrade. It is pricey, but we found it to be worth it. The dinner reservations were a MUST unless you like eating real late, and the premium drinks were nice. It sucks you have to pay extra for this, for sure, but If you don't mind parting with the cash, do it. Worth it in the long run to make a better trip.
GMAF
we didn't do it, and didn't miss a thing. We stayed 5 nights, and had two nice restaurant nights- Mexican and steakhouse (not the extra upgrade one) both were very good. I'm not a picky drinker- pina coladas and mudslides kept me going for much of the day, and never once missed upgraded liquor! If you're into clubbing, the one disco requires something additional, but between the buffets, a few nice meals, nightly shows, and the same incredible beach and pools, we saved our money and still had a top-notch vacation.
turtleboy
Something you'll want to think about is when you're traveling - if it's busy season the check in / check out and priority reservations would be great to have, as well as the seating on the beach. If those things don't concern you, the resort is beautiful without the extra service.
JenCC
didn't seem like it, unless you are their for a honeymoon
wzrfan
I asked myself the same question prior to booking my trip to OCT for the first time. True, you do get the perks of dinner reservations, fast check-in, butler service, in-room jacuzzi, Privilege lounge and private beach access, but you also receive staff that goes above and beyond serving you. If you do not have the extra $300 budget, then opt out; however, if you do, I believe it is worth it. We also received a lobster dinner. I noticed non-privilege guests waiting during dinner time for reservations and complaining. They were very perturbed. We received reservations without a problem on any night/time we desired. Consider it like VIP in a lounge or concert you would go to. Would you like the extra care, attention, and service? If so, it's worth it!
LiveBold
I would say its not worth it, just returned from a 7 night trip and did not pay for Privilege. Our check in was very easy, did not once have to wait for a restaurant (but we did get there very shortly after they opened), and i am not sure what the premium drinks are, because I was able to get Captain, Smirnoff, Skyy, etc without a Privilege upgrade.
Jules532
No it is not the only difference is the liquor and that is it....Crown Royal is privilege, however Captain Morgan is not...not much difference to me.
Justus10
I was completely fine WITHOUT the Privilege perk. Save your money and do some excursions with that $300. The regular liqour was all at LEAST average stuff and good enough for me. Restaurants seating was same as Privileged guests so I don't know what that's about.
JimDiesel
I would have to say no it's not worth it. We had no wait for check in or check out. Not sure what premiun drinks are included but I asked for Captain Morgan rum instead of the bottom shelf stuff and it was included in mine. I never saw priority seating at any of the resturants. The Japanese steak house was the only one that was a little hard to get into because they only did reservations on each day at 6:00.
dcinpa
We didn't do it. At first I thought I wanted to, because I wanted an ocean view room, and even though I don't drink much, I wanted my drinks to be GOOD drinks. However, we changed our minds. We decided it wasn't worth it. We got to see the beach all the time and didn't spend much time in the room anyway. We did not find the drinks to be watered down; they just weren't the best quality, but that didn't matter. We were there in mid-June and the hotel was busy but not super busy, so the waits at the restaurants weren't bad. Ten minutes for the Japanese one and about twenty for the Italian. My boyfriend didn't mind waiting anyway because he would buy Cuban cigars from the vendor outside and smoke them while we waited!
We had no problems at check in. I had requested a king bed when we made our original reservations and was surprised that we were not offered that. So, I asked for a king, and they gave us one. I was polite and friendly to the front desk staff, and that may have made a difference. We saw "privilege" guests being rude and were very turned off by that.
We would go back again and still not pay the extra.
Ava86
I talked with several people checking out and asked the very same thing.....their words were NO WAY! So I did not pay the extra. If would have meant better food quality, I would have paid!
BigDaddy76016
Not worth it at all!! It really depends if you like to drink top shelf liquor, which Im not a drinker at all. They have domestic liquor like the tequillas of course, long island ice teas, bahama mama, daquiris, pina colodas and so forth.

Is there nightly entertainment?11 answers

donna
Yes. Royal Solaris Cabo has a theatre inside their hotel. I was there for 5 nights and they had some type of show every one of those nights (magic show, dance show, carribean night, Mexican show, etc.). They were all very entertaining. They also have activities after the theater shows out in the lobby or outside. They have activities at the pool during the day. The kids at the resort loved the entertainment as did the adults.
75Degrees
There is nightly entertainment by the hotel staff, but we didn't participate. We chose to walk the beach at night or relax in the room.
Ava86
Every night.
Pete1
The Bravo staff was great!
BigDaddy76016
Yes, there were shows in the theater and sometimes things going on in the lobby every day and night.
dmdohmen
Yes, but I think there could have be more and they were not as impressive as other resorts that I have stayed at.
Boop
Yes. They post a schedule daily. Shows in the theater, parties at the bars, shows on the patios, kids stuff, and music in the lobby.
Staceven
yes there is nitely entertainment. theatre, dancing, lots of activities.
diaschm
Every single night!!:)
LadyM514811
there are things going on at the resort all evening but they do a very poor job of letting you know the details.
lillin
We didn't attend them, but they have a small theater with a crew that puts on nightly shows at around 9:30PM. They do imitations of superstars like MJ. Also, like comedy shows. They have a DJ that plays music at around like 10PM. They have things for Teens at their Teen Club.
But they highly promote this excursion called Coco Bongo which is going there and it's like a show that imitates stars like Lady Gaga and you dance. It's like a club.
NeedAVacay
Yes, they have a number of shows and kareoke another night and a "sudo" disco out by the pool bar. It is all low key. Each time we went there were families and children there. If you are looking for nightlife and entertainment go downtown to Cancun and hit the clubs and bars. You can take a taxi. Great during the day or night.
ALso the hotel has a nightly shuttle that takes you to a certain club for a fee. You get drinks and the ride to and from.

Not inside the resort

Kayaking and katamaran at resort. Great excursions for snorkeling, dolphin swimming, ziplines, etc.
SusanandJeff
Yes both BUT there right there on the edge of the hotel. Nothing special. You have to pay extra for the better stuff that takes you out into the ocean but well worth it
dolphins
The activities are not AT the hotel, but the hotel can book the excursions for you if you don't book them while booking. Many of the excursions will pick you up at the resort. My husband and I did snorkeling, ATV on the beach, sunset cruise, and zip-lining/repelling. The excursion people picked us up for the ATV and the zip-line tours. We took the resort shuttle into Cabo for the snorkeling and sunset cruise.
75Degrees
The resort does offer kayaking and sailing, but the snorkeling is limited to lessons in the pool. There are excursions you can take for snorkeling, which we did. We went to Maroma Park and loved it!
Ava86
If you can find anyone to help....they do have snorkel equip. POOR SERVICE
BigDaddy76016
You can book snorkeling right off their beach. There were several tour guides available everyday at the resort to book off-resort activities.
dmdohmen
Yes. Kayaking, snorkeling and wind surfing.
Staceven
yes there are lots of water sports.
diaschm
tons - not enough time in the day to do everything
Melaylay01
they charge you for everything at the resort, you can only use the kayaks for 30 minutes, the snorkeling is more expensive to do from the resort, cheaper to book an excursion with the tour guy at front lobby, it includes the spinnaker with the snorkeling and is better snorkeling than at the resort.

Ocean Coral Turquesa, how is the beach? How's the crowd?11 answers

Qbanaza24
The water can be a bright blue, but it can also be a tad murky depending on the tides, weather, etc. Sometimes the water does have some sea grass in it, which makes it not as crystal clear as it normally is.
There is nightly entertainment on the property, but it can depend on the individual guests at theresort at the time and how many people are participating, etc. There are usually shows in the theater and Karaoke most nights as well.
KristinCC
I havent been personaly but some friends of mine came back the week of the fourth and didnt like Ocean Coral Turquesa, Beds were terriable the smell of sewer and spider bit and Sand Fleas. They had two 19-20 year old with them and they were pretty bored. Hope this helps
Cofer
The water is a little murkier than at Cancun or Tulum because this area is protected by a reef. The reef is protected by an environmental agency and they are not allowed to spray poison to kill seaweed like they do in Cancun. It's not bad, just more seaweed. The water color is still beautiful.
They have a club-like party every night. The pools during the day are awesome fun too. There are lots of young couples.
Staceven
I have not been to either of those locations so I really can not say. However, there was a storm brewing when we were there so the water was not as blue and clear as I had hoped. You would be very satisfied with the degree of entertainment they provide. There were all age groups represented at the resort and the 'adults only' pool was perfect when we wanted to get away form the noise and activity of the other pools.
johnniebean
The water isn't as clear as Cancun or Tulum, but it is still a great beach to be at.
There are a lot of families and not a lot of night time adult activities. I would recommend an adult all inclusive.
Caballero76
you will have a wonderful time. there are activities for young people. salsa dancing, kayaking, sailing,snorkeling, 4 great poolsand a large white powder beach. nitely entertainmet and great food. lots of people your age from all over the world. have fun!!
diaschm
Having never been to either of those places, I really can't answer your question, but when we were there, the sea was a little choppy, so the water was a little sandy right at the shore. As to the crowd and entertainment, there was something for everyone. A LOT of young adults your age, but no matter what the age, everyone was so friendly! I would go back in a heartbeat!
PKC59
The beach was beautiful. Tiki huts, staff taking drink orders, beach volleyball, and soft sand. Didn't have a problem getting a chair (in August). The water was very warm and clear, there was some seaweed, etc on the beach, but we traveled in hurricane season and the water got a little rough, so that could be why. I am 24 and I traveled with two friends and we had a great time. The resort is split 50/50 between a young, fun crowd and couples. We had a great time at the resort - plenty to drink and parties at night. You HAVE to go to Playa del Carmen - Coco Bongo was the best part of the trip. The resort offers a very fun, safe bar hopping trip which was worth every penny.
Melaylay01
Tulum is crystal clear and very blue. We were there for an excursion to the ruins, so we saw that. The beach at Ocean Coral Turquesa was brown and green, kinda like the Gulf. We tried snorkeling at their beach and visibility was terrible. The water was warm though. Tulum's water is much better.
NeedAVacay
The color of the water at Ocean Coral does not compare to Cancun. The beach at Ocean has alot of debri, water seems dirty and no waves. The better beaches are in Cancun. Beautiful and lots of waves and clear water for snorkeling.
Young couples should go here only if they want to relax and unwind. The night life at the resort is low key. The pool bar only stays open until 1:00am. The entertainment staff trys to engage people but you would be better off getting a taxi and going into Cancun for the best nightlife ever! You will love Cancun. We went to Cancun for years and had a blast. Now we are looking to just relax. Wait until your in your 40's or 50's- then go to Riviera Maya.

Children friendly? What activities for kids?1 answer
2 months ago
Ray
Upon reviewing the resort information posted on our website, Ocean Coral & Turquesa stands out as a vacation oasis because kids stay free. The resort makes sure they have the time of their lives. In addition to a children's pool, the resort has both a Kids' and Teen Club. At Mini Club Daisy, kids 4-12 can set off on treasure hunts, play water sports, and put on shows. The older kids stay busy at the Teen's Club, with beach volleyball and kayaking. They can even get their daily video-game fix thanks to the five gaming stations.

has anyone been parasailing while staying at Ocean Coral & Turquesa????1 answer
I have read a ton of warnings...no first hand horror stories but a lot of people scared to parasail here. Anyone have first hand experience, good or bad?

I have not had first hand experience here but one should always be cautious when selecting a company offering parasailing. You want to select an experienced, well rated, and safe company. You should always do your research and review their safety record before selection.

Hotel Description
Adios, Real World... Hola, Paradise!
Imagine gliding through clear blue waters, around a tropical reef teeming with colorful fish. Picture yourself exploring the wonders of a Mexican cenote, an underground source of water. These adventures, and others, are waiting for you at the Ocean Coral & Turquesa Resort.
Known as the gateway to Mexico's famous Riviera Maya, this all inclusive resort is located in the quiet fishing village of Puerto Morelos. Its gorgeous coral formations attract divers from all over the world. Even if you are a beginner, you can experience them, too, since Ocean Coral & Turquesa offers introductory scuba lessons in the pool. The nearby Dive It! Diving Center is also available for PADI-diving courses or snorkeling excursions.
Besides out-of-this-world diving, Ocean Coral & Turquesa also stands out as a vacation oasis because kids stay free. The resort makes sure they have the time of their lives. At Mini Club Daisy, kids 4-12 can set off on treasure hunts, play water sports, and put on shows. The older kids stay busy at the Teen's Club, with beach volleyball and kayaking. They can even get their daily video-game fix thanks to the five gaming stations.
At Ocean Coral & Turquesa, four pools, a children's pool and a Jacuzzi make your vacation wet-n-wild! Paddle over to the Blue Pool swim-up bar for a pina colada. After a day of play, it's time to head to one of the resort's seven restaurants. At Villa Marina, pair a grilled-seafood entree with a salt-rimmed margarita. In the mood for something lighter? Head to Le Petite Creperie for a sweet or savoury crepe. The Score is an American-style diner that doubles as a sports bar at night. Meanwhile, Mike's Coffee is the spot for your morning tea or a little afternoon pick-me up.
To top it off, there's a daily activities program and nightly entertainment. Add in a seaside massage or a facial at the spa, and in no time at all, you'll be saying "Adios, real world... hola, paradise!"�� �
