My Husband and I stayed at Gran Costa Real in January and enjoyed it very much. As we were first timers, we had the yellow wrist bands but we did not see any others. We plan on returning next year!! :clap:

Chaos-they can tell if you are a repeat by their records! You get great service whether you have yellow or black bands. We got a bottle of champagne in our room welcoming us back.

Howdy folks, this is Leon from England... I was on holiday with "Cancun Crazy" who has just posted the previous message... i'm speechless, myself and thw 10 other english lads just had the best time of our life... I got back home about 2 hours ago, and i'm deeply depressed... I met Apple and her friend over there, but sadly didn't really get to know each other.. I was either been sick, in bed poorl, or DRUNK. Thankyou to all the staff at the Gran Costa Real - Cancun MX, especially Omar the sports & entertainment rep - your a legend in our eyes and if your reading this, RUFIO, RUFIO, RUFIO !! HAHA game on player....

Cheers Sol,

I will make sure I got to Senor Frogs! in fact I will make sure I get there more than a few times

I've been to Ibiza the past 4 yrs as I know some poeple who live there so will be nice to have a change. Not a big raver so not bothered about the lack of dance music

Thanks again

Mark

Hey! We are heading back to Cancun for our 4th time but this time we are staying our first week at the Gran Costa Real and our second week at BBG! I have so long to wait and want to be there NOW! LOL

Can anyone recommened an EASY way to get thru all the timeshare crap at the airport this time? I loved that BBG will pick us up but we are going to the GCR first and they don't do transport do they? How should we do it easily? Thanks!

Well when I stayed the GCR they picked us up from the airport, and as for he time shares just don't stop in the airport get your stuff and get outside as fast as you can to the terminal. Where all the buses and such are..

This hotel has now been sold to the Barcelo chain and is now called the Barcelo Costa Cancun. People staying here no longer have use of the other Real hotels. Hope that these are the only changes that are going to be made

We're scheduled to go here in November and when we booked the trip we wanted to go to a Real hotel. Now FunJet says there's nothing we can do because it's not their fault the hotel management has changed hands. FunJet assured us that nothing at the hotel has changed, but how can that be? I'm sure Barcelo runs their hotels differently than Real does. I've been to both Barcelos and Reals and there WAS a difference in our experiences.

I think any changes would be for the better. And let's hope they got better Entertainment staff since I was there in march...They weren't very nice.
