Oasis Cancun
Hotel Information: Guests enter a broad lobby with warm-toned gray and taupe marble floors and, to the side, a wall of cascading water, below which lies a large sculpture of a reclining figure. Directly ahead, steps lead to landscaped grounds dotted with dining and drinking spots, and paths that wind to the beach, where rows of palapa-shaded lounge chairs await.
Amenity highlights: A long freeform pool highlights this resort and is shared with Oasis Cancún’s neighbor, Grand Oasis Cancún. The pool is traversed by three arched wood bridges and is home to three swim-up bars. Seven other bars, along with 12 restaurants and snack bars, are featured, so that every path through the 13-hectare (32-acre) area shared with Grand Oasis Cancún leads to refreshments.
Insider tip: A quiet stroll through the grounds can bring an up-close encounter with one or more peacocks, which flourish their iridescent blue and green feathers before disappearing into the shrubbery. More often, guests hear their distinctive calls across the grounds.
The majority of amenities, activities, and gratuities at this resort are included in the room rate; guests will not be charged extra for the majority of amenities and activities (scroll up to the All-Inclusive Details section for more information).
