Random AI Family Questions

[shauni27]

Has anyone ever stayed at any of these resorts?

Majestic Mirage Punta Cana
Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun
Grand Park Royal Cozumel

I think we have it narrowed down to these three. Majestic looks nice and has great family suites for an insane price, but it is HUGE.
Royalton has the best kids activities, but is also the most $$$ (but still in our range)
Grand Park in Cozumel has the least kid stuff (minimal if at all for his age) but I am familiar with Cozumel and I know there is enough off the resort grounds that would keep us all happy.

Just looking for feedback if anyone has been to these resorts with their kids

I'm no help, sorry, but couldn't resist commenting that I'm sad that when I see AI now, I automatically think it's about Artificial Intelligence. And I was really curious about what kind of help you needed for that for your family.

Enjoy your trip, they all sound great!

Haven't stayed at any of those, but if you land up booking somewhere and going, please update with how it is! We're taking our first family vacation ever to Punta Cana in early June, but my parents gifted to us, so we had no say in resort. We're staying at the RIU palace, but heard kids club/activities is minimal.

This reminds me, I swear you reached out to me about Club Med some place (Insta? FB? Email?) but I couldn't for the life of me find the message to reply. Did I hallucinate this??

Looks like its not in the running so it doesn't matter lol.

I think I wrote it on one of your pictures, not via message, lol. I would still take your feedback on Club Med, I just do not get as much as a discount with them

Tell me about the kids club and your room set up and the overall price maybe?? (feel free to PM me in any of the ways that we normally communicate, lol)

I also read this as Artificial Intelligence, lol.

We stayed at the Majestic in DR (the adult only side) and really liked it. A few friends have stayed, and/or gotten married there and also loved it. The suite was ah-mazing, including butler service. I found it cheaper than Sandals, but that's not saying much. The room was indeed as big as a huge apartment. Our friends have gone with their kids and liked it...however their kids were pretty young so I can't speak to fun for older kids.

I think the food is better at Sandals, but Majestic otherwise is pretty comparable as far as nightly entertainment, drinks (better at the Majestic.) Pool is nice, and pre-COVID you could bring your own float and or re-usable cup. Apparently there are Facebook groups where people pre-plan and make friends, it's a whole thing I didn't know about until we went, lol.

Anyway, we've thought about going back there as we hope to finally take a "real" vacation later this year, but we'll see.

We want to go again with only our immediate family so we have say on a better resort lol.

Whatever you pick, find the Facebook group and join it. We're also going to Mexico this summer and the group for my resort has been such a help.
