We own a time share at Sunset Fisherman but were unable to use it during the time that our daughter and her family could join us. It was rather short notice so we were offered instead a stay at Sunset Lagoon or Sunset Royal. Preferring a smaller and more personal vacation, we chose Sunset Lagoon and were NOT disappointed in any way. The staff was extremely helpful, the food was great and even our family's wheat allergies were easily accommodated. Our rooms were more than we had hoped for. We had a studio and a suite that were adjoining with their own entrance. We had our own space, our daughter and her husband had their privacy and the 3 teenage boys absolutely loved it. Each room had its own safe, fully equipped kitchen and well stocked fridge with beverages and snacks. All the water in the kitchens and bathrooms was safe to drink as they had their own purification system. This was great with the kids who forget to rinse a toothbruch with bottled water! There was no need for concern whatsoever. The pool was clean and inviting as were the grounds and all the facilities. We took the boat trip over to the Royal and used the exercise facilities, dined there and took the shuttle back. It was nice, but Lagoon was much cozier and friendlier. You could walk around the area of Lagoon undisturbed or stressed. It was very near the ferry to Isle Mujeres and close, yet far enough away from the downtown shops and clamor. The entertainment was entertaining at both Lagoon and Royal. There were also organized tours of the discos and other Cancun funspots. Buses ran right outside the door and if you had a car, as we did, the valet parked and retrieved it whenever you wanted at no extra charge. We were asked if we were interested in a tour of their newest facility and a chance to upgrade our membership. We declined both and stated that we were there to enjoy our children and grandchildren as they live quite a distance from us and we were looking forward to every minute spent together. We were not bothered or pestered as some have stated. In our experience, all presentations are paid for affairs with discounted car rentals, sight seeing trips or cash and if you agree to accept these payments, how can you complain about them. No one gives you something for nothing. You have made a voluntary decision -- you could have said no. So please, if you are considering a stay at Sunset Lagoon, go and thoroughly enjoy yourself. We had a wonderful time, made friends with a lot of the staff and were quite surprised when my son in law said it was the Best Vacation he ever had!
