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 6th floor. The room was clean and with the exception of one night we had turn down service with fresh towels. The shower was awesome and we would like to duplicate it in our house. The only thing that would improve these rooms is a balcony but you know that ahead of time so no big deal. The three windows do open so you can hear the ocean 24/7 if you want. I did have to call the front desk about a couple of issues (bathroom sink would not drain properly and the safe needed to be reset) and they were knocking on our door within minutes to take care of them. The service overall was excellent.
We went to the breakfast buffet all but one morning and used the MAS rewards card for the 2x1. Great variety and fresh. The fresh fruit smoothie bar was a favorite along with the omelet and waffle stations. We went in town for dinner every night.
Most days were spent at the pools. The pool side beds were the most comfortable of any pool furniture we have experienced. They are at least the size of a king bed. Several days we did pay $35 for the adult pool Bali beds. The pool water was a refreshing temperature. As stated in other reviews they do have a DJ on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Not our type of music but it was fine for Friday and Saturday. On Sunday the volumn went way up so we moved to the main pool. Having way too much to drink the night before could have played a role in my decision to move.
We have been on many Mexico vacations so I always get a kick about all the people that complain about the "timeshare/vacation club" sales pressure. We never go to these presentations no matter what they offer and I do not spend much time discussing the offers with them. We just nicely say "no thanks we are not interested" and that is the end of it. They did call the room one time and approached us a couple of times in the lobby. No big deal to us.
We used the fitness room for a couple of workouts. Enough there for a decent cardio or weight workout. They do have Spinning bikes. The classes are $18 but they do not have a regular schedule. You have to talk to the trainer about setting up a class so I did not follow up. We were surprised that they do not have the cleaning supplies to wipe down the equipment. We were told by the receptionist that they do it at the end of the day. Not good. The ME sent me a survey this morning and this is the only thing I thought they needed to address and this comment had nothing to do with the current flu issues going on in Mexico.
