An introduction to Ocean Maya

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the crowds, this Mexican retreat offers plenty in the way of peace, quiet and total R&R. You only have to look at the scenery to see what we mean. It's a mere few steps to the sandy white beach, or a hop, skip and jump to the tropical gardens. If you can't decide between the two, the pool area's right in the middle, so you won't have to leave your lounger to get the best of both worlds. Of course not everyone likes to spend their time horizontal, so point yourself in the direction of the sports area. Here, you'll find two tennis courts, along with football and beach volleyball. If you're feeling adventurous, you can even try a bit of windsurfing and kayaking. Or try your hand at something new, like salsa dancing. Activities aside, the food's just as impressive. But with so many choices, the only problem is choosing where to eat first. Walk on the wild side at the authentic Mexican eateries. Or play it mild and plump for the seafood option. And if they don't float your boat, there's Japanese cuisine and a la carte goodies galore. After dinner, there's plenty to keep you entertained until the small hours. You'll find shows, music and professional dancing on the agenda, but it's the open-air disco that pulls in the crowds. Here you can dance 'til dawn with a soundtrack of tunes from the past and present. So, if you're looking for an action-packed hotel with to-die-for scenery, look no further than this Mexican stunner.

Arriving at the hotel it looked like it was going to be very good value. As others have said, check-in is slow but there was only one family in front of us. Immediately someone was over to give us a drink and once we'd reached the desk it was a... more on this review
