Our experience at Great Parnassus was fantastic. We waited no longer than 5 minutes at any restaurant for dinner. I would also like to recommend the Mexican restaurant by the kid's pool. They had the best cuisine AND the best margaritas, the only downfall was that it closed at 5pm :(. All other restaurants were very nice as well. Adults... more

It's even shaped like a cruise ship - a long skinny hotel with about 20 feet of beach front. It's very poorly laid out, and difficult to get from point A to point B without walking for miles. For instance, the water park, which is the best part of the hotel, is in a remote area probably 1/2 mile from... more

We just got back and I have to say the place is beautiful, very clean and everthing we ate was delicious. The only thing was everything was not open every night because of the low occupancy. We ate at Big Ben 3 nights and the filet would melt in your mouth and the mashed potatoes were great, Edgar took care... more

This resort is very well laid out, unbelievably clean and an all-around great place to spend a week!! Check in was quick and easy. We had a king bed family room with a balcony view of the ocean, just beautiful!! The only disappointments with the family room were that the TV in the bunk bed room does not have cable... more

My boyfriend and I arrived on Saturday, April 25th. At first site, the lobby is amazing. There are no doors to the lobby, so it's very open, breezy, and welcoming. We checked in with no issues at all. Our luggage went with the bellhop and we went up to have a look at our home for the next 5 days.... more

Myself and boyfriend just got back from cancun, we are 21 and 23 years old. We both had a spectacular time at the Great Parnassus and after a terrible trip to Cuba last year, this place went above and beyond our expectations. All we really wanted was to get away and relax for a week and we were definitely able... more

This hotel was clean, well maintained and the staff were beyond helpful. You have to adjust to "Mexican time". meaning room service might be late and they might forget about you a few times, but they tried very hard to keep us happy. The restaurants are AMAZING! The adults only one has great steak and make sure to go to... more

The hotel rooms were nice and roomy - no complaints - except my AC didn't work as good as my sisters - but my view was much better! The pools were not very clean, especially the bar pool. Since it was the shallowest pool at about 3ft deep, the kids seem to use this one to play in. The main... more
