reading all these reviews makes me sick, the Caribbean may not be 1st class on food and be overly impressive but it wins hands down for its entertainment and kind staff! a group of 5 of us went to Cancun in March 08 and had the best holiday ever, as soon as we arrived we... more

We booked this holiday for my boyfriend's 40th birthday. The hotel was average but the food was very disappointing. There was no choice of food and did not cater enough for the amount of people that were there. There was no entertainment at all except for New Year which i... more

We first arrived to an indoor swimming pool in the room (fridge was broke, got fixed 4 days later. cheers guys) Air conditioning didnt work, food was barking and i personally thought it was still alive. Entertainment was booming a whole half an hour. wow someone knows how... more

I stayed at the Caribbean Princess in August 08 Before I went I was extremely worried as I had read some shocking reviews. When we got there, I was disappointed with the location - It is tucked down a side street behind a disused shopping centre (with a max of 4 shops) and... more

Yesterday I returned from my trip and I loved every minute of my trip, from the hotel to the resort. We arrived around 16.30 local time and the receptionist informed us the pool bar was still open for a snack if we wanted to eat after our long journey. We were then shown to... more

Rip Off
My husband and I just returned from Cancun. We had reservations at Caribbean Princess for 7 nights, but upon arrival the hotel told us they overbooked and we were being moved across the street to Aqua Marina (a dump) for one night. We'll the next day we went back to Caribbean Princess and were told they still did not have any rooms and just to wait another day and they would come pick us up. We'll we waited and they never came to pick us up. We went over to Caribbean Princess and demanded they give us our room that we had reserved. Big... more
great dissapointment
i stayed there with my boyfriend and we paid a lot of money for it. I was very dissapointed with everything the rooms were clean but old fashioned, we went all inclusive and the food was the worst part by far i swear i was eating the same batch of sausage for days. everyday the food was the same and i found myself actually missing baked beans its that bad!! it rained which i cannot blame the hotel for but there was just nothing to do our room flooded, and most people looked really fed up. i was ready to come home after the first week, we... more
Very sorry to be home....
My friend and I have just returned from a great New Year's week at the Caribbean Princess. We booked our holiday just 4 weeks before departure and were unsure of what it would be like as it looked unlike some of the smarter, bigger hotels in Cancun. I am delighted to say that we found a lovely hotel, with excellent, friendly staff, a high level of cleanliness throughout and great atmosphere for a week in the sun over New Year. There was, unfortunately a group of people in the hotel who were complaining about the food loudly to anyone that... more
Caribbean Princess is great!!
I really enjoyed the hotel! I went with a friend of mine and we had a fab time! I really recommend this hotel because it is just far enough out of the centre that you can have "chill out time" but there is a courtesy bus to the beach every day, and the public transport runs more or less all night so you can easily do as much as you want, whenever you want. The only thing that lets the hotel down is the food, but then again, it was good, there just wasn't a great choice. Big up to Charlie and Marco! And if anyone can tell me what the... more
Amazing place
Arrived home 17th December 2003, had a brill time. Location ideal, food basic but good plenty to choose from. All staff pleasent and can't do enough for you. Entertainment basic hoiwever the team are funny and work hard, only one professional show a week (dancers). Room spacious not much wardrobe space, bed enormous but very hard on concrete base still did not stop us from sleeping. We would recommend this idylic hotel and resort.
I loved it
i stayed at the caribbean princess when i was 12 (im 14 now) we loved it so much, we are booked up to stay at the hotel again in february (67 days! i loved it so much, im counting the days til i return!)I thought our entertainment staff made the holiday extra special for us. Charlie was so funny, so was Tracie. I didnt see much of Ivan when i was there, but he played table-football with my dad all the time! and finally Jesus - wow he was soo good looking! I loved the bar staff, Jose and Manuel were always smiling. If our drinks were half... more

Just came back from Cancun and had a really good time. The Caribbean Princess was a lovely hotel with friendly and helpful staff. The entertainment staff were excellent. Alex and Ivan went out of their way to make sure all of the guests enjoyed themselves with pool games and taking the guests out to different bars and clubs every night. The waiters were very efficient and worked really hard especially Manuel who had a permanent smile on his face. The rooms were spacious and cleaned everyday and any queries were dealt with immediately.My only... more
Fantastic
I have to say a big thankyou to CHARLY AND TRACIE!!! With out you both the caribbean princess hotel would be terrible! You both really keep the people entertained and have fun. I think that some of the reviews on here should be completely ignored they are just terrible fussy people who just can't stop complaining......I agree with this quote....." If caribbean Princess is not up to your standards...then lower your standards!!!!!!! " The rest of the staff were lovely, and so helpful. the rooms were cleaned everyday and the reception staff... more
best hotel in Cancun
We have just returned from a fantastic 2 week holiday staying at the Caribbean Princess. The Staff were tremendous from the moment we arrived and our room was spacious and clean with a large balcony and a breathtaking view of the lagoon with a Caribbean Sunset. Although there was not a large variety of food, you will not go hungry as there is always something to suit everyone. The restaurant and bar staff are very efficient and very pleasant. However, the entertainment staff - Charlie, Tracie, Alex and Ivan were excellent and made sure... more
