Excellence Rivera Cancun vs. Secrets Maroma Beach?

Jess, on February 16, 2015 at 8:02 AM Posted in Honeymoon 0 7

FH and I are not well traveled... I've never even flown... and I'm trying to figure out where to go for our HM. The Cancun/Rivera Maya area is a top contender for us, and there are two main resorts that I'm looking at - Excellence and Secrets. Is there much of a difference between the two? Or are there any other resorts we should consider? I'm looking at all inclusives because I'm lazy and I want easy. Smiley smile Also, I definitely want an adults-only location.

We don't even have passports yet so I hope we're not screwed.

    1- order passports now

    2- I prefer Excellence but you can't go wrong with either

    3- also look into LeBlanc in Cancun

    Good luck!

    Get your passports now....when when I had to renew mine 2 years ago it was ridiculous and got sent back requesting more information....basically everything but a promise to give up first born child. I sent out my information the day before Thanksgiving, got it sent back right before Christmas but had a passport in my hand the beginning of February.

    Other than I don't have much info for you...FH and I aren't big fans of Mexico (but I would go to Riviera Maya rather than Cancun)

    Yeah, passports are definitely on the list but getting the information for mine will be difficult. They ask for former spouse's birth date and place as well as the same information for your parents. I've tried to forget my ex's information and I don't know my parents' so this will be a challenge.

    Depends on when you go to Cancun Valarie...in May and Sept you are safe and there are no kids or spring breakers at Le Blanc ever. ?

    Secrets Maroma has a nicer beach, however Excellence is also an amazing resort!

    We are staying at the Secrets Silversands resort in Riviera Maya!! We chose Secret over Excellence due to cost and "feel". We chose Silversands over Maroma based on price and that Silversands had more restaurant and bar options.

    Hi Jess, a big Congrats on your engagement. My name is Kelly Burnett and I am owner and travel expert of Travel by Kelly. So I have been to both these resorts and also a few others I could highly recommend. One of my faves is Secrets Maroma for sure, it has a great beach. The Excellence is also a fantastic choice and another resort that always has really great prices and I could tell you all about is the Valentin Imperial Maya. This resort has been very popular for my honeymoon clients. there is a lot to do in this area, with fun tours, you can take the ferry over to Cozumel even for a day. our money definitely goes very far here so it is a big bang for your buck. Adults only is the way to go and your making a very wise decision to go with all inclusive, it creates a nice stress free feeling when your on the resort and you can just relax and not worry about prices of meals and drinks etc. It would be my pleasure to help in any way, answer questions get some price quotes, make suggestion, so feel free to reach out to me anytime. Your welcome to check out my storefront here on wedding wire. have fun with all your wedding planning.

    Love more.....Dream more....Travel more.... Kelly

    me and my husband in Mexico
