Krystal Grand Cancun All Inclusive

Hotel is barely a 2 stars hotel. Starting with the elevators they are supposed to have 4 but only two work properly. Also, when you check in they say they have 6 restaurants, that’s a lie they only have two “specialty restaurants “ for dinner and impossible to get a same day reservation. Only one bar for whole facility. Buffet restaurant is too small and you have to make a big line every time you want to eat. Hotel does not have A/C at the lobby/bar area. Property conditions are poor, hotels need maintenance and remodeling. Only two pools and very difficult to get sitting there. I won’t recommend this property for future staying.

The staff are all friendly. The food are marvelous and very tasty. I just dont like our room, you can hear the noise of the water from the pipe from other rooms. The concierge doesnt have foreign exchange but overall experience was great. Will definitely come back and recommend!

Servicio del personal y la bella playa

I loved it

We have stayed multiple times at all inclusive resorts and this was by far the worst one. The staff was not friendly, they lied about dinner reservations,

It was okay

Excellent service by every single staff member that I spoke to during my trip. They were knowledgeable, helpful, and went above to ensure my questions were answered and needs were met.

IT WASN'T GOOD CHEAP HOTEL BAD FOOD PRICES FOR THIS HOTEL SHOULD BE LESS THAN A 100$ A DAY. THE ELAVATORS WERE HOT AND SLOW. THE AC IN THE ROOM WAS CONTROL TO LIKE 70%. THE TOWELS WERE STAIN. THE BLANKETS WERE STAIN.THANK GOD I ONLY STAY ONE NIGHT AND SWITCHED.

Staff were excellent. Very happy with the hotel and all the workers. I will definitely be coming back.

Its been on a decline but the service is decent

The quality of the service was really exceptional. The staff was extremely friendly and willing to help. The food was delicious and the swimming pool was great. The downside is the quality of the facilities. The tower is old and although the entrance atrium is really nice, there are a few things that are outdated. For instance, the elevator is slow and really hot inside. The conditions in the room were also not great. The air conditioning worked well (thanks god!), but they have a few minor items that were either run down or broken. For instance, the main large mirror had desilvering all around (black regions and spots), the lift rod of the drain stoper in the sink was broken and a few other minor things. The bottom line is that this is a great place with exceptional works and nice environment/vibe outside the room. However, if you want a luxurious room, then you will be disappointed. In any case, I highly recommend this place.

beach view , good weather

The hotel and staff was great. The AC was not the best

The wait staff was good. The woman who made the fresh quesadillas was amazing. But getting a reservation in the app didn’t work. The reception employees were terrible with service. And I’ve never been to a hotel who didn’t give you a room at 2:30p instead of 3p, go away come back in a 1/2 hour and then wait till they are ready to help you.I would NOT RECOMMEND!

Drain in second room did not drain First room toilet stopped up after house keeping cleaned room

The view was amazing, the staff as well. Everything in general was an Amazing experience

No opciones de comida , los restaurantes q supuestamente son tres permanecen cerrados, los abren alternos , una reservación nos tocó esperar una hora y la otra Cdo llegamos, teníamos una reservación para 11 y al llegar nos dicen q era solo para 8,en la piscina tienen muy buen servicio pero la piscina de los menores estaba resbalosa

I have stayed at several properties in Cancun and this hotel is okay at best. Room - The beds are extremely hard and uncomfortable and the AC did not go below 74 degrees. We even had maintenance come look at it. We had issues with the shower draining and the toilet constantly running that maintenance looked at as well. When we would have house keeping done - we would get 3 towels (3 people in the room) but no floor mat, hand towel or wash clothes. We would have to call daily asking for more. Restaurants - We felt like this was deceiving because not all of the restaurants are open daily and you must make reservations ahead of time for them, aside from the buffet. The food at the restaurants was okay/decent. The buffet was not good at all with very limited options. The smallest buffet I’ve seen at an all inclusive. At the buffet it was very hard to get simple things like water, coffee, maple syrup, etc. Also, the cafe does not do any coffee flavors/syrups and bars are not open until 11am. Grounds - Very dated hotel. The elevators are extremely hot and slow and the pools are just okay. They are pretty small. Staff - We had overall great experiences with staff. Kevin, Fernando and Pedro just to name a few. Overall, this hotel is not worth what we paid and we had to make the most of it.

The beach was beautiful and amazing! The food was not impressive. The staff were all very kind. My daughter got very sick one night and threw up and they were asking for $180 USD

Me hospedé recientemente y la experiencia fue muy buena. La ubicación es inmejorable: playa limpia, agua cristalina, sin sargazo y muy cerca de la zona de antros, bares y restaurantes. Las instalaciones son decentes. Las albercas están muy bien cuidadas y la zona de camastros es cómoda, pero el hotel en general luce algo antiguo. Las habitaciones estaban limpias y tenían aire acondicionado, aunque en las áreas comunes no hay, lo cual puede ser incómodo en horas calurosas. El servicio fue excelente, todo el personal fue amable, servicial y siempre al pendiente. En especial Rosamaría, la concierge, quien nos atendió con un trato impecable y cálido durante toda la estancia. Se nota que les importa el bienestar del huésped. La comida del buffet fue regular, con opciones algo repetitivas, pero los restaurantes de especialidad sí mejoran mucho la calidad. Lo negativo fue el sistema de reservaciones: habíamos apartado una cena en el restaurante italiano, pero nunca nos informaron que estaría cerrado ese día, lo que nos obligó a repetir cena en el mismo lugar y llegar sin reservación, lo cual es incómodo. El ambiente es relajado, cómodo y seguro, ideal tanto para parejas como para familias. Entre semana se disfruta más, aunque el fin de semana hay más gente. En general, una buena opción con excelente atención, gran ubicación y un ambiente muy relajado. Con algunos ajustes en su logística y mantenimiento, podría ser fácilmente una experiencia redonda. ¡Gracias por recibirnos!

Location of property was great. food options were okay, not the best. Beautiful property. Rooms do not get below 74 degrees and some restaurants were extremely hot

Great location, beautiful beach. Rosamaria was very nice and helpful concierge. She booked a dinner reservation for my fam and helped with our transportation reservation. Also, she was able to arrange a late check out. All staff was very friendly. Overall, everything was good and my family and I had a great vacation.

Room not what we expected It smells a lot like humidity. Needs renovation Blankets had a funny smell and found bugs on the bed. For the food there wasn't a lot of options Needs more improvement for the price.

Great hotel but food was not very good!

The room was very comfortable and roomy. Although we wanted the dinner buffet on Sunday it was closed early which was unknown, but everything else was great !

Not full all-inclusive service

Not AC providing to elevator, limited time for cold drinks, not accessibly for your own transportation to lobby.

The hotel had no air and no AC in room; limited hot water

Overall stay was good staff very friendly but NEED AC in lobby and restaurant too hot!Especially elevators !

Rooms need to remodel other than that is good

Buen ubicación y opciónes para cenar

Food Could've Been Better, But Everything Else Was PERFECT! 💜

Ceiling started leaking all over and when called front desk to let them know we were advised someone will be coming up to check the issue someone came an hour later and he did not speak a word of English he left and came back and placed a bucket in the middle of the room and they never came back to fix the issue. Let the front desk aware again and we got no help at all. Ac barely worked. Hot water issues. No one was helpful or better yet wanted to help resolve any of the issues we were having! We had 4 rooms booked it was awful. Elevators had no ac at all either. The resort definitely went down hill. No pool activities or entertainment. The list is endless of all the dissatisfactions.

Janer, the front-end mgr. was SUPER helpful moving me into the nicer room via Expedia and even got us special food; our massage therapists, Consuelo (amazing) and Yahaira did an amazing job with our massages and body wraps. Please give them kudos!!

Great beach, good food. Nice ocean view room. Room had a connect door but we were able to change room. Loved the heated pools.

A server in the grill which I can remember his name he worked morning shift and lunch very professional nice!!!!

The beach front was phenomenal! Would recommend and will be booking again on my next trip to Cancun.

The beach

Victor & Isai at the Mosquito Beach Bar were the BEST! They made the best drinks & keep them coming. Very friendly & attentive. The beach is breathtaking. We stayed in the Altitude building. This is our second time staying at this resort this year.

The hotel is relatively new, with complete facilities, and excellent options for dining, entertainment, and leisure. The staff are all very nice, especially the manager. The price is reasonable, and transportation is convenient, with the ferry terminal being very close to the hotel. I highly recommend this hotel.

I liked the beach had plenty of seating and great location from Downtown Cancun. I liked excellent service all around especially at the main pool! I liked the room service. The food was fresh and hot. I would like more option to be added to buffet and restaurant menus. I like using the website to make reservations to restaurants and room service.

Overall the experience was enjoyable. One major downside was the elevators. One of the elevators was out the entire week we stayed. There should be more elevators considering there are 13 floors and the resort is pretty full. Getting up and down to our rooms was more times than not difficult. There often was quite a wait and the elevators were hot and full.

Clean property. Great friendly service. Everyone spoke English. Awesome photographer on site. I would definitely recommend.

I paid for a deluxe room with a king bed and an ocean view. They gave me a terrible room with a pool view and two beds. It was dilapidated. After waiting for two hours, they gave me a deluxe room, part of which barely had a view of the ocean. It was my birthday. They ruined my celebration. I swear that this is the last time I choose this very bad hotel.

I had a terrible experience with this place. Despite having prepaid for my reservation, they tried to overcharge me when I arrived. When I asked to speak with the manager to explain the situation, he was completely dismissive and showed no concern for the stress this caused me. He had no interest in resolving the issue and was only focused on charging me extra. In the end, I was turned away without any assistance or proper customer service. This kind of treatment is unacceptable, and I would not recommend this place to anyone.

This was a great place to stay the staff is very nice

Older resort. Elevators had no air. Needs new bed. Beds were awful. Restaurants food wasn't bad. Pool area food was great.

June 14-18 / travel for pleasure - 2 adults All inclusive. this is my experience = i would like to share that I am very generous, tipping everyone.. this resort was a WASTE OF MONEY 👎 WITH SO MANY OTHER HOTELS TO CHOOSE FROM, YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD DO BETTER. 1st off : Very, Unwelcoming staff upon check in, not friendly, Elevators are very SLOW - +, NO AC in elevators?/ you're in a hot box, extremely slow elevators & it was not busy. The room Tv or Toilet was not working- shouldn't these things be tested before issuing room to a guest? Buffet was low quality food, my companion got sick after eating buffet food / violent vomiting on Day 1. A doctor had to be called for the severity. Then they charge $8 for Room service ? Even though you have all inclusive, and you're not allowed to bring your own food to the room? Seating in buffet restaurant again it was not crowded or busy, we request a table by the window.As we are on vacation and we like the view of the ocean, with over ten empty tables, they told us that we can only sit at a table that holds two chairs!? Also calling the front desk to report these various things. The phone would ring and no answer. When I did reach someone i would be transferred around several times. I did speak with a Guest Services Manager "Grisselle" who was very nice to speak to but, nothing changed, as my stay was very disappointing. Outdated hotel & features. I have photos, but it's not letting me upload? Overall very disappointing.

The experience was horrible the service. The food was not wrll cooked no variety. The room and ac not working fine. Bathroom has rust.

Great property

The reception is VERY slow for check in and out

The elevator were like a sauna, no air conditioning in this hot weather, also the staff just waiting for tips , some of them don't even look at you .

Todo estuvo excelente bonito lugar y muy atentos. 👌

The food is not so good

Food selection and food in general was awful, doors slam very loud, hot when you come in main entrance

Great location, amazing staff

Elavator was broke, hot in the elevator and lobby...if youll fix that it would be a great hotel.

The staff was friendly and accommodating to us. I enjoyed my stay very much. I plan to return.

It was good stay but the room i expected more with the ocean view, i expected more fancy but it is what it is .... the buffet was great 👍 ill stay there again but with a more newer room.the location was excellent

My stay at Krystal Grand Cancun was nothing short of spectacular. The hotel radiates warmth, and the staff’s kindness and professionalism made every moment delightful. I highly recommend upgrading to the Altitude Suites for breathtaking ocean views that truly elevate the experience. A special shout-out goes to Jahar, who became more than just a bartender—he became a friend. His infectious laughter, engaging conversations, and spot-on recommendations for local activities and dining made our trip unforgettable. Thank you, Jahar, for your incredible hospitality, and thank you, Krystal Grand Cancun, for an extraordinary vacation.

Employees are friendly. Ocean view is excellent. Everything is good except 1. Hot water didn't come out well (Shower) 2. Elevators were very slow 3. No seafood at all

The location is good and convenient. Direct access to beautiful beach. The room is not bad with daily service. However, my experience at their dinning restaurant in all 3 nights are TERRIBLE and beyond disappointment. In both times i tried their grill and Asian restaurants, we had to wait 1hr to 1hr and 30 minutes to get seated and until the food comes to the table. The food is not even good and the waiter even told us that food is pre_made and cannot be customized. What made my experience worse was the attitude of the employee at thr Grill restaurant when they served us. We had to wait 40 mins before we got seated and they sat other ppl who came later first. When I questioned, she ignored me and just said that we were next without further explanation. When i asked to talk with manager, he then explained that bc other ppl wants to sit in balcony . But that same couple after getting sat down in balcony then requested to go inside bc it was too windy and then we had to wait for another 15 mins bc of that. Same experience occured in my second time using their Asian restaurant when we had to wait at least 1 hr to get the food to our table. We also saw other couple got up and left in anger after waiting for a long time. This is my 2nd visit to this resort but my first time wasn't All inclusive and didn't have to experience in their dinning restaurants. This will be my last time visiting this resort.

The good is the beach , beautiful beach The bad : The food low quality and no choice, every day the same The drinks low quality 5 restaurants,only 2 works Remodeling everywhere, noise and dust They paint in our room and it was crazy stinky Check in only at 3pm ,if you did it early ,you can't eat in the buffet before 12 , stay hungry:( Only 2 elevators work for all hotel , no ac in elevators Only Expedia guy helped us with room , and other issues

Amazing staff!!!

From the check in to the check out everyone was very helpful. Altitude Tower service was VIP. Thank you

Room was not the best. Water stinked horrible even when you brushed your teeth you could feel it wasn't safe.

The staff was rude. They were dismissive. It took a long time to get a drink which was extremely watered down and the facility wasn’t even near capacity. The ELEVATORS SUCK. Super Hot. No air. Very small. We walked 10 flights up and down it took so long for the elevators. We were there for 4 days and 3 nights. We got served coffee with our breakfast THE LAST DAY. They never come to your table and offer you anything. You self serve most of the time. And they seat u right next to someone when there are tons of empty seating. Hands down the worst stay I’ve had in all my travels. Wouldn’t recommend at all. And Cancún itself was just horrid. Too many salesman who sale the same thing. They wanted $40 US for a IPhone charger. Then when you order food they UP THE PRICE at the register. And try to make you use ATMS where your charged a PERCENTAGE rather than a flat fee. It’s crazy there now. I see why no one talks about Cancún anymore

Todo extraordinario, muchas gracias

This all-inclusive resort is a gem: 5 restaurants/snack bars, gorgeous beachfront rooms; excellent cleaning service, and activities seemingly arranged around the clock. Though you don’t need to leave the resort unless you want, you should. Shopping areas include markets with lovely original designs, and excursions to places like Tulum’s Mayan Ruins are a must-see. The concierge can arrange anything for you. We’ll return soon.

Excellent service, delicious food and amazing beach! Would return for the experience!

Beach

The place is very clean, the beach is beautiful, the staff are kind- but I think everyone can agree the food is ordinary at best. The place advertises 5 restaurants, but every night one is closed which causes big lineups and/ or bad dinner service. I wouldn’t come here if you are looking for 5 star food. Everything else was great.

Great overall resort — be aware there are two towers, highly recommend staying at altitude it’s a much nicer experience. Food is just ok, entertainment mixed depending on night some good some just ok. If you are looking for nice resort definitely worth considering great beach too. I would say though If you are looking for something very authentically Mexican, this is not the place. Would definitely stay again.

We put a lot of time and effort into going on this vacation that was much needed for my family and I. Everything about our experience was amazing! Griselle, the property manager made sure that we were satisfied and had a great vacation. Our housekeeper, Reyna was the best. Our room was spotless every day. The concierge staff downstairs also was very helpful especially Mariana, she was very kind and sincere. All of the servers were amazing and attentive at all venues, (pool, cabanas, restaurants, etc.) Variety of food options that were all great. It does take a while to get dinner so keep that in mind, if you have kids tell them you want their food sooner rather than later and they will accommodate. Staying at the altitude building will give you a better experience. The room service is nice to have. Also, keep in mind you should be tipping the staff, this is how they make a living. Get up early if you want umbrella and chairs on the beach. A day with the cabana was a wonderful experience and very relaxing. Muchimas gracias a todos. Nos va a regresar in el futuro :)

Stayed in the Krystal altitude very clean. All the staff on the property were friendly and helpful. For sure, will be revisiting this hotel to stay in the future. 10/10

The physical property was outdated. Most of the elevators weren't working. The food at the dinner buffet was terrible. Frozen drinks had huge chunks of ice in them. We won't be back.

Pros: 1. Location was awesome. 2. The Beach is beautiful. Cons: 1.The bed and pillows were hard as a rock. 2. Our room wasn't ready at check in time. The hotel wanted us to wait for another hour or longer for a room to be ready when they initially denied early check in. 3. The elevators were horrible! They didn't work most of the time or were very slow. 4. The specialty restauraunts were all booked when we checked into the hotel so we could not reserve any special dining. We were forced to eat at the buffet or deli the whole stay. 5. The buffet was closed all day Sunday.

Property is clean. Lines to restaurants are outrageous and not that many food choices. There is a hibachi place impossible to get a reservation. Food in general super salty. Kids club smells like mold. Waiters and service is super slow

This resort truly sounds like a delightful place to stay. The accommodations must have been exceptional, creating a memorable experience. It's wonderful place to enjoyed my time. Such positive feedback speaks volumes about the resort's quality. I hope others have the chance to experience the same level of satisfaction.

Amables personas todas

The best thing was the beach and stopping store walking distance.

The water in the shower doesn’t have good pressure and it doesn’t get really hot. Food choices were awful.

Friendly staff. Felix is especially great. Food is good. Coffee bar is great, staff are fantastic in there. Ivan at the checkin desk is polite,friendly. AC needs work, elevators are slow.

Food service is a joke

Overall, it was a decent trip. The rooms need to be renovated and the elevators definitely need to be fixed. If you do stay here, I recommend reserving a room in the Altitude tower as it's a newer building. The food was decent, but the breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffet surpassed the other restaurant options. All said, the beach and staff exceeded expectations (especially Janer and Mark). Overall, it was worth the price we paid for the trip. If anyone knows what the different color wristbands are, please let me know (it's killing me not knowing what each color denotes. I would stay here again.

Great service!

The elevator’s need to be fixed. That was the biggest issue for me. One round trip to my room on the tenth floor took 17 minutes.

This was a long weekend Anniversary trip for me and my wife . We had a wonderful time staying here . The beach was great .the location was fantastic close to everything.we enjoyed the food at the three restaurants on property.All the staff at the hotel were amazing so helpful. The only problem we had was this hotel has four elevator.which in the five day we stay there we never saw all four running once there were three ,most of the time two and a few times just one .this hotel has fourteen floors .so that was I bit of a problem. But overall we really enjoyed our stay One last thing we REALLY ENJOYED THE CABANAS ON THE BEACH

It was a great time. Our concierge Janer was great! I will definitely be coming back

My issue was the bracelet they give you when you check. I had a blue bracelet and that bracelet did not give me access to the infinity pool. It didn’t give me access to the good restaurants in the property. All inclusive means all inclusive they can tell you where you can eat and where you can swim.

Scam! The resort is in a great location and some of the staff is awesome. I left feeling taken advantage of. When I was leaving they said I needed to check out to be able to leave and stated my daughter was not on the reservation, when she clearly was. It was stated on Expedia. They said I owed $600USD to be able to leave the said $400. I kept refusing and asked for a manager. Finally after a heated debate, having them go through my phone I paid the $400 to be able to leave. I was close to missing my flight and missed the shuttle scheduled and had to get a taxi. It was an awful experience. It seemed they do this often but its when people are leaving so nobody sees it.

Service is not good!!

Very nice, beautiful beaches

Wonderful resort, many restaurant options.Just make sure you make reservations ahead, so you don't miss out. The beach location is superb.

The staff was very good. The food needed to be improved for an all inclusive. The beach area was nice the rooms were good also. Enjoyed my trip.

Jesus Curtz was the best waiter! He was happy and very attentive! Was the best! Also, Juan Pablo helped us sooooo much we can never say enough thanks for these two. It was a great experience. We stayed at the Altitude and loved it, top floor! What a view. It is a must to book!

El hotel esta ennuna area privilegiada tiene una playa aue parece piscina ademas de su espectacular volor azul turquesa. Nuestro amigo Janer se encargo de nuestro recibiemiento al igual que Sara y Mariana del area de concierge, fueron muy amables todos.

Great beach access!!

I had a great experience checking in with Cindy who upgraded me to a suite & allowed me access to the room when I got there at 9am + gave me the all-inclusive benefits to start right away instead of at noon (thanks to booking through this app!) I then met with my concierge Janer who was excellent, texted me all the hotel info I needed & more. He had a welcome gift sent to my room not long after arriving. When it came to check out time he gave me access to continue using the all-inclusive benefits until I left at 5pm (after checking out at noon) and he also gave me a complimentary access to the Moskito beach club (a Bali bed & the all inclusive!) Roberto at the Moskito beach club was amazing, after ordering a few drinks he just kept coming without asking for the rest of the day. He was super friendly and helpful. He also brought me lunch there which was pretty good too - pizza al pastor. The service at the buffet was almost non existent though. It seemed as though they were only there to clear tables. The service and meal I had at the oriental a la carte was excellent. The room was clean and spacious with gorgeous views of course. I had a huge patio to sit and enjoy the views, and even some music from coco bongo. This hotel is on the best beach in Cancun, so if you’re looking for an amazing beach and stay to go with it, definitely book here.
