The hype
A fantastic, action-packed resort for families with great pools and staff, but the beach leaves a lot to be desired.
Sensira Resort & Spa Riviera Maya All Inclusive
$300-$450 / noč
Rezerviraj to, če You want a high-energy, family-friendly all-inclusive with endless activities for kids—from zip lines to a water park—without sacrificing decent food for adults.
Zakaj je to priljubljeno
- Incredible kids' amenities including an Aquapark, zip line, and trampoline park
- Excellent specialty restaurants like the Rodeo Grill steakhouse and French dining
- Friendly, accommodating staff who go out of their way to help families
Hitri pregled: The beach is plagued by massive seaweed build-up and the entrance road is a bumpy dirt path, so expect to spend your time at the pools rather than the ocean.
Pregledano od @mommycristinaknows: Our family trip to Sensira Resort was amazing. The kids never got bored with the water slides and zip-lining, and I loved that the resort wasn't overwhelmingly huge. Sneaking off to the adult-only pool was the cherry on top. We'd go back in a heartbeat!

Reality check
The beach is small, rocky, and frequently covered in foul-smelling seaweed that makes swimming nearly impossible.
- You have high-energy kids who need constant entertainment
- You prefer spending your days at the pool rather than the beach
- You appreciate having separate kids, teens, and baby clubs

- Linens & towels: Fresh premium bedding, but decorative pillows sometimes show wear and tear.
- Odors & scents: The resort smells fine indoors, but the beach area frequently smells like sulfur/sewer due to rotting seaweed.
