The hotel

This is Secrets first ever resort in Cancun and it’s a stunner! Adults-only and Unlimited-Luxury®, the design is cutting edge with every state-of-the-art facility you can think of. All rooms have private balconies revealing magnificent views of every sunrise and sunset over the ocean or lagoon. For true indulgence head to the Secrets Spa, inspired by local cave-like structures and cenotes; it’s a sublime experience, guaranteed to take your breath away! If yoga is more your thing, join like-minded others for some zen-like meditation in the open air or head to the pool for a spot of water aerobics. If you’ve always wanted to salsa, there are dancing lessons galore. After an action-packed day, or indeed a day just spent soaking up the sun — the choice is yours — head back to your beautifully appointed suite for sundowners on the terrace or enjoy a sommelier-led wine tasting with some of the world’s finest wine collections. When it comes to dining, again you’re spoilt for choice. The finest cuisine from around the world is served to you in a variety of restaurants, each one the perfect venue to linger in a while, soaking up the romantic atmosphere. Fancy a film after dinner? Some evenings there are films on the beach or dance the night away in the sports bar to the latest DJ-spun tunes!

Wife and I went to get out of the cold and celebrate our anniversary. Found the staff here amazing. Food was excellent. Entertainment was varied and quite good. Partial ocean view room seemed a little tired and spartan. No sitting chair in the room. Only disappointment was the beach. It’s as wide as the property but narrow with quite a drop from where the loungers are to the water. Lots of public traffic on the beach has people passing quite closely. In this area of development along the shore the hotels are close to each other and the properties are rather narrow unlike the sprawling properties further in to the hotel zone. All in all a very enjoyable experience. Read less

Was expecting to come to Secrets for a nice quite 5 day vacation, only to find out that BRX Mortgage came in a took over the preferred area and hosts an extremely noisy party. Guess Secrets The Vine is moving into the convention business, and forgetting their paying guests. Hopefully they be able to sink the money into the beach, and adding more staff. This location falls short of expectations in the Secrets chain of resorts. Secrets needs to establish a quality control group to over see each establishment is on par. They would find they all need to step up. Read less

Secrets the Vine in the hotel zone of Cancun was an amazing location. We booked an oceanfront room, which had views of the turquoise ocean and the lagoon. Friendly staff and enjoyed the three pools and hot tub. Plenty of bars and restaurants to enjoy.

Overall My family holiday to mark our retirement was very good, slightly pricier than I was expecting however we all enjoyed the experience. the rooms and facilities were excellent and the staff cannot do enough for you. We would definitely go again to both Cancun and to Secrets - the Vine. As an English traveller, the tipping process always gets confusing but it never felt like it was a problem with the staff as they were so helpful. Read less
