Looking to go to Cancun, mayakoba/playa del Carmen, or Tulum in May. Nicest hotel recs? Some of the mayakoba ones look to be best I think? Hard to tell. Appreciate any advice!

I stayed a week at Grand Palladium’s TRS Yucatán resort in Riviera Maya. Adult only. All food and drink included throughout the resort and connected resorts. Daily stocked mini bar with certain choice bottles of alcohol stocked in your room and replaced as finished (I chose a whiskey and a tequila). Butler service outside suites to coordinate dinners and transport. We also had our own private pool with our suite which was cool. My wife and I enjoyed it a lot and would go again.

The Fairmont Mayakoba is beautiful and amazing service! If you go to Playa del Carmen visit El Fogón for some of the best tacos I’ve had.
