瑪里維爾情感渡假村及套房飯店 - 全包式 - 新巴亞爾塔

Pros -- clean, good service overall, pools, beach is great, specialty restaurants, rooms are good size and comfortable. Cons -- timeshare people, buffet average at best, certain portions of property is exclusive and not available for all guests, cruise line passengers bussed in and use facilities making it very busy during the day, pushy with their taxi services.

Overall we really enjoyed this resort. Our kids (5 & 7) loved it and asked if we could move there. For our part, there were things that could have been better. The buffet food on the nights other than the New Years gala was so so. The pizza was pretty bad. We weren’t able to get into a restaurant with a reservation on our date of arrival because they were all booked. The rooms were so so as far as comfort and cleanliness. because of the deal we got on hotels.com I felt good about the value for what we got but I wouldn’t want to pay full sticker price for this place.

My daughter was married on the beach in what was hailed as the best wedding most there (70!) had ever been to. The food, decor, wedding planner, music, flowers, fireworks, service, hairdressers, photographers, and location were exceptional and we could not have been happier.

This was our 4th time to the Grand Marival. The hotel is beautiful as always but that is the only positive. Most of the staff speak little or no English and you would think they could improve on that as these days Canadians are their next favourite customers after the Mexicans. That made experiences at the desk very difficult. The food is awful. You don't really know what you are eating with their stew like dishes that have poor quality beef, pork or chicken. Good bye Marival. We won't be back.
