From the time I arrived, I knew we were going to have a blast. Upon arrival we were greeted with smiles and Mimosas. The rooms were immaculate! Unfortunatley, due to past hurricanes the beach has extensive erosion, but that didn't keep anyone from enjoying the crystal clear (extremely salty) water. Pools(heated) and grounds are well kept. We explored downtown (ate... more

I stayed at the Me the last week of June, My first impression of the hotel was that it was so beautiful. The hotel bellhop's were great they opened the doors for us and took our luggage upstairs. Now the FRONTDESK was a different story she was rude and basically said here is your key and sent us on our... more

I took my daughter to the ME for her 18th Birthday. We were there 5 nights in a Deluxe Ocean view room which is absolutely fabulous! Turn down service was a little inconsistent and the room never really cooled off (to my standards) but I think it was because it was so HOT outside. The adult pool is great, especially... more

The Good - My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the ME the first week of June. The hotel is beautiful. Very upscale feel and we both enjoyed the cucumber melon smell in the lobby. The infinity pool is very nice and being able to swim in the ocean below it was a treat. The a.m. buffet breakfast was... more

Travelled to Cancun with my hubby to celebrate our 5th year anniversary. The hotel, pool and clear blue waters made a very good first impression on us but everything went downhill from that point on. To mention just a few examples: -Very rude and pushy sales people. Refused to leave us alone and lied through their teeth the entire time.... more

I just got back from ME Cancun, and although right now Cancun is "not the real thing" because of the Swine scare, for me that did not make a difference. I thought that the location of the hotel was great....not at the very end of the strip by all the crazy bars, but not so far down that it is... more

I had visited Trip Advisor and read many of the reviews about the ME in Cancun. Most were very helpful so I thought I owed future travelers a quik review. My wife and I stayed at the ME for 8 nights (4/19 - 4/27) and really could not have been happier. We had a standard ocean view room on the... more
