Moon Palace Cancun - All-Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed at sunrise moon palace and the pools were probably the best part, lots of entertainment, we took our 3 kids and there was more to do than we had a chance to, we stayed 8 days and there was always some event going on. 24 hrs room service was a must, some of the nights we were too tierd to go out to dinner and simply just ordered room service, the food was actually really good, my favorite was the crepe/Coffee shop. To be honest I got sick in the middle of our trip. Im not sure what caused it but I brought charcoal pills and by the end of the day I felt way better. I highly suggest you bring money to tio because if you are out by the pool ot beach and you tip. The service is 100% very we better... only thing i didnt like was the beach, it had soo much Seaweed! The water was filled with it. We brought our snorkeling masks and u still couldn't see anything in the water because of the Seaweed, but honestly it wasnt that big a deal. We got to release baby turtles into the sea one night and my kids will never forget that"
