Cancun, Quintana Roo Hotel Rooms at the Independent

My husband and I went on a last minute rendezvous (leaving our 14 month old with the grandmas) to have a 3 night stay in Isla Mujeres. We wanted to take a break from work and do one more trip before our 2nd baby arrived. We had been to Isla Mujeres before, but only for a night away from Cancun, and had previously stayed on the more touristy North end. We specifically chose this resort because it was more secluded (being on the south end) and knew it was a smaller hotel (I believe only has 10 rooms) so there wouldnt be a lot of commotion- so we could truly relax. It was the perfect amount of time to swim, kayak, tan on the pier, and lay out by the pool. The hotel itself was beautiful and the rooms were very comfortable, and all have an amazing ocean view and large balcony or patio (depending on what floor you are on).

The view from our room was absolutely breathtaking! The staff was friendly and the facilities are very well maintained. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a quiet laid back beach oasis. Plus the food is AMAZING! I also recommend renting a golf cart from the hotel and cruising around the island...this was our favorite part of our stay on Isla Mujeres! You will love this hotel!

Great hotel, big space, nice location, great stuff. Pricing is very good too. The only thing that needs improving is the food in the restaurants inside the hotel. Other then that very pleasant experience.

Very nice resort, clean, polite, helpful staff. Resort restaurant staff is very slow, food is horrible, ate off site after eating there. Breakfast buffet is a joke and expensive for what you get to choose from. They need to upgrade the food.... The c/a in the rooms should be more quiet they sound like a jet engine taking off. Pool towel location should be visual from the pool area. The hotel next to this resort cleans up their dinning area very late at night and all you hear is dishes slaming together throughout the night into the morning.

We reserved a standard room with two double beds 7 months before our trip. When we checked in, there was only a standard room with one king bed left. This room also had no view, and the window did not open (room 211 west building). Although we were disappointed, the room proved to be very clean and spacious and had a wonderful shower. We really appreciated the large water dispenser with fresh water. We always had plenty of clean towels and soaps. Housekeeping did a great job! I would definitely upgrade to a room or suite with a view in the future. The beach is outstanding! Although the hotel has two very nice pools, we never used either one. We spent most of our time on the powder soft beach or swimming in the calm, clear, turquoise ocean. We never had trouble finding lounge chairs, and the staff was very helpful in setting up umbrellas and a small table if we asked. The water is clear and warm, and you can walk out quite far before it gets deep. It was fun to watch the yachts docked just outside the swimming area. The hotel is located within walking distance of many wonderful restaurants and shops. We rented a golf cart for a week, and were able to take our time and explore the entire island. I would definitely recommend renting a golf cart for at least a day just to see all of the beautiful different parts of the island. We enjoyed the freedom to come and go as we pleased. There is much to see and we put on many miles!

Best vacation we've ever been on! Resort was ckean. Wonderful staff. Fantastic food. Cant wait to go back!

Excellent service all the way around. The staff will do what they have to do to make you happy. Our first room was down low and we paid for a complete ocean view. We were moved to the 4th floor the next day. You will not go hungry at the privilege Aluxes. I have been there 3 times now and will be back in 2015. I love it there. It's beautiful. Money is worth every penny. I can't wait to return to the Island of Isla Mujeres and stay at the privilege. The music could be better at the restaurant on the beach.

I HAVE BEEN STAYING AT BEACHSCAPE KIN HA FOR 20 YEARS. I LOVE IT, I APPRECIATE THE LOW KEY ATMOSPHERE, NO TIME SALES PEOPLE, CONVENIENT LOCATION, MELLOW LARGE BEACH, GROCERY STORE ACROSS THE STREET. WE USUALLY RENT A SUITE AND HAVE BREAKFAST AND LUNCH ON SITE, CHARMING PLACE.

We very much enjoyed our stay. It is a few scant blocks from the ferry and close enough but not too close to the main drag. We found the bay view and the coming and goings of the boats lovely.

Beautiful & relaxing island!!! Staff were very friendly & warm. Condo #26 was clean, comfortable & inviting. Hoping to visit again SOON :)
