Recently stayed at the South Seas for 3 nights with our 3 children, ages 4, 7 and 8. We were looking for some days of swimming and relaxtion. The Area. Cancun is extremely built up. There are miles and miles of high-rise hotels along the stunningly lovely beach. This is NOT the spot for a low-key holiday. You can eat,... more

IF YOU READ BAD REVIEWS - SOMEBODY IS CRAZY! I own 3 timeshares in varous locations and traded within to try out the Gran Melia in Cancun with mixed feelings at first, reading a toss up of good and bad reviews on this location. So, I went expecting the unexpected. The old saying you can't please everyone still runs rampid... more
