Just thought I would post this review I found. Adults Only wont work for us but man does this place look great. Anyway here is the review. Quote: September 11, 2006
We were married in February at Aventura Spa Palace, in the Riviera Maya. It is an amazing all inclusive, adults only resort and spa. We had 30 guests, all of whom said it was the most beautiful wedding and most amazing resort they have every seen. Most are now making plans to return, because they had such a great time.
We had a white horse drawn carriage, decorated beach gazebo (there are 3 gazebos of varying sizes to accomodate your wedding size), red carpet, beautiful flowers and candles, marriach band, great photographer, lots of champagne, fantastic reception dinner with beautifully decorated tables, music and dancing, wedding cake.
When we returned to our Presidential suite at nights end we discovered the great staff had decorated our bedroom with balloons, confetti, lots of flowers, bride and groom towel art on bed, and the wonderful large double jacuzzi was full of warm water and bubbles.! A bottle of campagne and a fruit tray sat near the jacuzzi !
Of course breakfast was deliverd to us the next morning.
We had a fairytale wedding, followed by a perfect honeymoon.
Aventura has many things for your guests to enjoy. There are 7 restaurants (no Reservations) and 24 hour room service. All of the restaurants are very good and have quite a variety of food. There are 2 beautiful outdoor pools with swim up bars. One pool is quieter than the other. One has volleyball and live music. There is also a cross current pool, 5 jacuzzis and an indoor pool. There is a beautiful clear lagoon to swim, snorkel, or kyack in. The restaurant, beach, and pool service is spectacular! There is a world class spa that our guest took full advantage of, an excellant beauty salon, a state of the arts gym, a fitness trail, zen garden, laberynth, climbing wall, tennis and basketball courts, diving tank, pool and ping pong tables, 5 bars, live music and dancing in the lobbies, disco. Also, there are free unlimited tours to many popular destinations and when you stay at one Palace Resort you can use any of the others for free (restaurants, golf, spa etc).
The rooms at Aventura are beautiful, all have a large double jacuzzi that looks out on the ocean, all have balconeys and hammocks.
Also, if you want to have your rehearsal dinner somewhere else, you could go to one of the other Palace Resorts for that (Playacar Palace, Cozumel Palace, Moon Palace, Cancun Palace, Beach Palace, Sun Palace) and it would be free or you could take a 15 minute ride to Playa and have dinner at a restaurant there.
Aventura Spa is truly a first class resort and has a very romantic atmosphere. You will fall in love with it. | Who knows If I'm doing anyone any help by posting these but I love to read reviews and since their arent any brides around here that have been married in this area (I dont think anyway) I thought I'd try and grab some info and just bring it over. Geez I hope this is legal, Tammy, am I allowed to do this? Maybe I'll hold off til you get back to me. Ive only posted 2 so far. God I hope its ok. | |

My FI and I went to Aventura a couple of years ago for some R&R. It was the best!!!!! We would've been married there but it was all adults  We absolutely loved it and that's how we decided on Mexico in general! I think the pic of the room is the room we stayed in-probably not but it looks just like it! It is great though-for anyone interested in going:) It was humid as hell though at the end of May!!!! FYI!

Yeah, I know! We were looking to get married in the Cancun/Cozumel area and this was our top choice... until the "adults only" part came into play. We were so bummed out. But it sure does look like a gorgeous place to get married. I love the large gazebo!

Link to wedding packages/costs at the Aventura Spa Palace.
I would cut and paste everything in here but they have so much extensive information (which is great) that It would take me 4-ever.
Just a reminder that this hotel is also the one that e-mailed me back in less than 24 hours with the wedding info I requested. That's a good sign that maybe this Hotels resorts will be good to do business with. DW brides so often have trouble contacting there resorts WC that the fact that the resort was so quick to reply might alone be a good reason to look into it for a wedding. http://www.palaceresorts.com/Wedding...lit_Cancun.asp | |

I sent Occidental an e-mail requesting some wedding info Tuesday afternoon and they havnt gotten back to me.
It was a much more detailed e-mail though since it pertains to my actual wedding so I'm hoping that they are so busy answering all my questions that it is going to take a few days. | |

if it is an email wanting detailed info instead of a canned response it may take some time for them to get back to you. | |
