| said: The food - the food was lovely. There were 4 different restaurants and at night in the lounge bar there was a little buffet. Every night there was different food based on different countries. The fruit was gorgeous and fresh. In the mornings if you asked for an omlette they would cook it right in front of you it was amazing to watch, they cooked it in 2 minutes.
The entertainment - in the daytime at pool 3 there was an animation team. They played different games for the ages 12 to 112 there was bingo, water polo, basketball, volleyball quizzes etc. At night there was a different show every night. There was also a kids club that I loved and I am 10.
The staff - the staff were very nice at every bar and the reception.
The location - we were across the road from a posh shopping mall which was closed 1 night so that Paris Hilton could do her shopping. There was another shopping mall that was a 10 - 15 minutes walk.
Cleanliness - the bed sheets were cleaned every day and the towels. You also get tubs of shower gel , conditioner and shampoo included.

| said: We stayed at the Barcelo Tucancun Beach resort in Cancun, Mexico for seven nights during September 2007. Situated centrally in the hotel zone of Cancun, other attractions are nearby. Check in was speedy and we were shown to our room immediately after been given the All Inclusive bracelet and the room- and towel keys. The room was tastefully decorated with ample room for personal belongings. The bathroom did have a shower only. In the room, a safe (extra charge out with the All Inclusive package), minibar (included in the package), iron and ironing board and full entertainment system was provided. The balcony provided sun in the afternoon to dry any laundry on the drying rack provided. Within the hotel, two buffet restaurants and two a-la-carte restaurants were provided as a choice for the dining arrangements. In addition, snacks were provided on a regular basis. A total of 4 bars ensured drinking pleasure from 10AM until 2AM. A choice of three pools with more than sufficient sun loungers as well as the narrow beach provided a change of scenery when worshipping the sun. The staff were efficient and very friendly. The entertainment team works hard all day and night to provide entertainment for their clients. Pool- and other games during the day were complimented by a nightly show in the air-conditioned theatre. All communal areas were spotlessly clean. All the food was of very good quality, with the Mexican a-la-carte restaurant very well recommended. We would not hesitate in recommending this hotel for anybody wishing to visit Cancun.

| said: This hotel was pure heaven after transferring from the Caribbean Princess. The staff at the Tucancun Hotel were so friendly and helpful, they really made the stay so enjoyable. The barman on the lower pool bar was very fast with serving people, he really gets to know everyone and has a good memory for what you drink. The food variety was fantastic, so much to eat, good quality and value for money. Four very lovely restaurants with a good choice of food. Lunchtimes were great, burgers freshly cooked for you while you wait! When we first arrived on the 29th August we were put in a ground floor room with not much of a view and the bathroom kept flooding with the shower, so management moved us straight away to a room in the north tower, 6th floor overlooking the sea! They were very helpful with move from one end of the hotel to the other, the Bell Boy moved our cases for us without us needing to ask. He was tipped very generously for his hard work with lifting our cases! I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone wanting a relaxing luxury hotel.

| said: The hotel is right on the beach, which is absolutely beautiful. The best beach I've ever been on, with cool, soft white sand, and a warm, clear sea.
The swimming pools are fab, 3 of them, one with a swim up bar, one had sunloungers in the water which were great for cooling off on without having to actually swim!
The food was OK, a bit repetitive, especially for the vegetarian we went with. The Mexican restaurant was lovely though, steaks cooked to order.
The rooms were really well decorated, and a decent size. Air Con is a must in Mexico, it gets really humid. The entertainment team were really full on, but would happily take you with them on their nights off to the local nightclubs. They know the staff at the clubs and got us in VIP.
Whilst at the hotel we had photographs taken of us with a monkey, a snake, and there were parrots and a lizard being taken around too. You can then buy the photo's for about $5.
A great trip to go on is where you drive a speedboat out through the lagoon (watch out for crocs!) into the caribbean sea, and then snorkel with the Huge but amazing fish.
A great hotel, definately worth staying at.
