Yucatan Peninsula Cheap Vacations

In Cancun, you expect fiesta vibes—not a Westin that feels like a timeshare trap with Uber Eats as its main restaurant Location-wise, you can’t beat it—right in the Zona Hotelera, where you come to do what Cancun does best: be in the middle of the action. Unfortunately, the property itself is dated and doesn’t live up to the Westin brand name. Food selection was so limited that even the staff recommended delivery apps (and yes, we joined the locals in tapping our phones). What really tested our patience was the relentless timeshare push—every time you left your room, like clockwork. Security protocols were solid, and they arranged a ride to the airport, but the private driver didn’t honor the quoted fare—classic Cancun “tourist tax.” Staffing felt thin, and when we arrived with luggage for five, no one helped until I tracked down a baggage cart myself

The only thing I didn't like was that I could have dinner in a restaurant because the others were never available

Nos gustaron las albercas muy bonitas, el bar y música en alberca dio buen ambiente, el edificio con elevadores y buen mantenimiento en jardines, muy buena atención de Mercedes en las balinesas nos hizo sentirnos cómodos, el buffet en desayuno y cena delicioso, fue buena experiencia la estancia en hotel Emporio

The resort was clean - from the rooms to the pool and beach ! The food was good , it just took a while to figure out what worked well for us. The breakfast was 10/10 , sooo many options & kid approved. It was noted to us that we came during a less crowded tourist time (mid August) so just a small tip. This is a more secluded hotel - not in Hotel Zone but you can take taxis around Cancun. If you’re looking for partying this may not be the right fit for you. This is a place to unwind, be with family & friends. We will DEFINITELY be coming back !

Services and property were good.

We booked this all inclusive resort because the review score was 8.8 but it did not meet my expectation. Limited choices of food in buffet area compared to other all inclusive resorts we’ve been too. The only air conditioned area is the room and hallway. So I’m sweating while eating especially in buffet area. The lobby needs improvement. Limited toys in play area and limited activities for toddlers less than 4 years old. Only one main pool and one children’s pool. The staff are nice and our room is clean that’s one advantage.
