About Beach Palace Cancun
As soon as you enter the lobby of the Beach Palace, see the red leather banquette in front of the large aquarium and notice the Mexican modern art on the walls, you realize this is a classy resort. One of four Palace resorts in the Cancun region, Beach Palace has an intimate, upscale appeal that caters to every whim of families on vacation. Forty-nine of the 287 rooms are Family Suites -- adjoining rooms complete with an indoor hot tub and large balcony space. Twenty of those rooms come with nanny service, so you and your loved one can slip away for three hours of babysitting each night. Even when you're apart, walkie-talkies are handed out to each family, so parents can contact their kids when they're playing at the Connection Zone Kids Club.
Yet, this being Cancun, the real appeal is that exquisite stretch of beach the aptly named Beach Palace is planted upon. The white sands lead to the lulling waves. If your children prefer pools to ocean water, you'll be happy to know the resort features three pools with swim-up bars and a kiddie pool and water slide at the kids club. Two of those pools are on the 14th floor rooftop overlooking the ocean and lagoon. This gives guests a rare opportunity to see the sun set over the lagoon in the west. If you're wise, you'll return every day to see the sun's red glow melt into the waters as you sip another frozen margarita.
If you can tear yourself away from the water, numerous activities beckon. Two Jack Nicklaus-designed golf courses are nearby. A complimentary shuttle takes people to and from the Wet n' Wild Water Park every day. The resort is only a five-minute walk to La Isla Shopping Village Mall, one of the best malls in Cancun. Then there are the numerous day trip opportunities to visit the Mayan ruins of Tulum, snorkel off Isla Mujeres, swim with dolphins, fish for marlin, scuba dive on the reef and relax on a sunset cruise. If you need a good dose of sunshine and warmth, it's hard to go wrong with Cancun.
