For a week in Cancun we were treated to nothing but great sunrises.  The sun rises early but it’s worth it because the resort is quiet, there’s barely anyone on the beach, and you have no trouble reserving some chairs wherever you want poolside.

We also took a day trip to Chichen Itza which was worth it.  However, if you want to take photos taking one of the large group tours probably isn’t the best idea because you are there in the middle of the day with harsh sunlight that isn’t great for photos.

Room service was hit or miss so we had to schedule it. Staff were hit or miss as well. Juan and Ramiro made my stay here much better. Went above and beyond when my daughter had a bad sun burn and needed shade. Food was great!

The Grand Park Royal Cancun exceeded our expectations -- the food was fantastic (tip: have breakfast in one of the restaurants, as it's all made to order), though you do need to make reservations for the ala carte restaurants ahead of time, especially if you want to eat on the earlier side.
