Secrets Capri, a luxury all-inclusive adults only 5-star resort along the Riviera Maya coast line of Mexico offers a romantic beach vacation that will re-charge your batteries. Christie, a seasoned 7-year travel agent with James TravelPOINTS , specializing in Mexico beach vacations, honeymoons, destination weddings recently stayed at Secrets Capri along with
My husband and I stayed for 6 nights at the wonderful Secrets Capri, located about 30 minutes south of Cancun airport in the Riviera Maya. Secrets Capri is an adult’s only hotel and became a Preferred Club Unlimited Luxury Resorts a couple of years ago. Some added great features include the World Class Pevonia Spa, a really fun large Sports bar with pool tables with comfortable couches an outdoor breakfast and lunch patio in front of the beach where you can order all kinds of delicious food along with a brick oven pizza where they make the best pizzas.
Room service is available 24 hours along with pool and beach service, even when you are laying on the beach you can order all kinds of different snacks, the fried jalapeño poppers are the best!!!
The Mexican and Caribbean Theme nights are so much fun, and the entertainment wonderful, some great singers and a really fun fire show, which was pretty spectacular. The nice thing about the Secrets Capri is that there is Oceanfront Dining, the seafood and steak restaurant are both located in the oceanfront building with a wrapped outside balcony which is a perfect setting for a very romantic evening. But the Japanese restaurant is also very good, I was surprised that even the sushi tasted great. The Italian Restaurant was our favorite just because we like what they had on the menu, but overall every restaurant is very good, and lots of different choices. The house wines are good and we did not feel like we had to pay extra for a more upscale wine. You do not have to make reservations at the restaurants, you just show up and if they do not have a table ready they will give you a beeper, you can even request a table if you with a nice view over the ocean. The longest we had to wait was about 20 minutes which is fine because at the mean time you can just enjoy a nice drink at the bar. Around 4pm in the lobby area they serve Mexican Coffee, and little cakes and cookies, for sure something you need to try.
Most of the rooms have king beds, a nice bathroom with a separate shower, and a small Jacuzzi tub, two sinks and an outdoor terrace with two chairs and a small table. The rooms facing the pool and ocean are nice, but changes are a large palm tree will be blocking part of your view. The ground floor rooms are a bit larger and have a couch, chairs and table to lounge in, the bathrooms are all the same size as the other rooms. Turndown service was great, each evening they leave a flyer for the next day activities which include the weather forecast, activities and entertainment along with the daily Spa specials I always looked forward to read it thru and get excited for the next day.
Every staff member works very hard and there is always a smile that greets you, they will treat you like royalty. One of the benefits of this hotel is that the Capri is that it’s a small hotel so its never a far walk to get from one place to another, but again not too small either, its just in my eyes the perfect size. The pool has a great temperature and the pool bar is fun, especially around 4pm when it gets pretty entertaining.
Secrets Capri is great for couples, honeymooner, anniversaries or friends that would like to have a good time but also have time to relax. The beach is short, so a couple of steps and you are standing with your feet in the ocean, but great for a beach walk specially towards the south. Seaweed has always been a small problem in this area but once a day they rack and clean the beach of debris. Swimming in the ocean was nice, the waves were not too big or overwhelming. The bottom is sandy and easy to walk in without the water depth dropping off to quickly. I thought it was the right depth, which I like. We always found a nice place to sit at the pool or beach, the staff will take away the towels off the lounge chairs if they are vacant for more than 30 minutes.
We had a great vacation and lots of fun and time to relax, Secrets Capri will be a good choice if you are looking for a relaxing fun vacation.
