“Very Good Hotel but...”
The airconditioner is not cold enough.
“Excellent experience”
Everything in the hotel is excellent.
“Perfect for families or events”
The JW is a huge resort, perfect for the family or older couple looking for a hotel with all amenities. If you're a young couple or worse, single, this is not the place to stay. It's relatively isolated, and after 9 pm is very quiet. Also, I had a pair of shoes stolen outside after a wedding (I left them unattended for 20 minutes).
“JW M”
JW Marriot the excelent hotel.
“Returned to this hotel numerous times & was 100% satisfied every time”
The J.W. Marriott in Cancun is absolutely beautiful, well-maintained, and a hotel I'd highly recommend. I've stayed there four times in the past 5 years with my family and this past visit, with my boyfriend; I've had a perfect experience every time. The staff is like no other-they are exceptionally friendly, helpful, and professional; such hard workers! Cancun is in itself, a beautiful place to visit, but staying at the J.W. Marriott has made my vacation experience even better. I rate it a perfect 10 overall.
“Aged look needs big refreshment”
Clean and well maintained, very nice staff. . .however - outdated look, poor planning and clumsy architecture of building, spaces and outdoor areas. Contributing to aged look are the lounge chairs throughout - in old and dark stripes, with wrought iron frame, uncomfortable to use. Tables and Furniture throughout as well. The cheap look of the motel type suburban Marriotts haunts this hotel. If you can put up with some of this - you can get something out of a good location, wonderful sea and beach, good spa and excellent masseuses. Food in restaurants is mediocre. Try the Aquaworld great guys will advise and show you a few tricks - Fernando is the best!
“Great hotel and great location”
The hotel lives upto its billing in terms of service, facilities and quality. It is right on the beach and very convenient to transportation. The only minor drawback is that for the 5-start hotel it should have a 24 hour coffee shop which is lacking here.
“klaoud”
Overall we had a good stay at the JW Marriott. Great location on the strip, not central but sufficiently removed from the "party" area of Cancun which we weren't really there for. some of the highlights; Nice Pool, great beach front, excellent and attentive staff, very nice SPA and exercise facilities including an indoor lap pool. Overall a good experience, can't really find any negatives to point out.
“Clean and excellent service”
Really nice and comfortable. The perfect combination of up scale and attentive service.
“Best Hotel I have ever been to!”
This is a very grandiose Hotel. The rooms are clean, new, spacious. The floors are marble. The swimming pool is great. The amenities are awesome. The service and food quality is outstanding. I really had no negative experience during my stay with the family. We have a 6 year old and a 16 month old. We all had a great time and will definitely consider going back there again. The only cons is the price.
