Moon Palace Resorts in Cancun is redefining luxury all-inclusive resorts and the place to let go of stress, reconnect with family and find unlimited activities right on the property. The massive resort features 2,400 guestrooms spread out over three sections, including Moon Grand, Sunrise, and Nizuc, and with that comes endless opportunities for fun with 14 restaurants, seven pools, six tennis courts, a 9-hole golf course, a Dolphin Encounter, a FlowRider wave simulator, and so much more –you could never possibly be bored! With our recent trip, we didn’t just hole up in our Presidential Suite digs (although we would have been just fine doing that!), we got out there an enjoyed all of the endless amenities this mega, all-inclusive resort has to offer.

Here are the 12 things you must do at Moon Palace Resort in Cancun.

Have a drink at Sky Bar with top-shelf libations and start your vacation off right! Recently renovated by legendary French designer Francois Frossard, the Sky Bar is the perfect ambiance to grab a nightcap while in paradise, whether you’re traveling on business or enjoying your vacation.
You can’t leave Moon Palace Resorts without tasting the homemade ice cream that is made daily at the resort. Some of our favorite flavors include coconut and mango!
Looking to focus on wellness? Book the recently renovated Resort’s 19 “Palace Wellness Suites,” for your chance at clean eating, physical and mental well-being, and physical fitness in the Sunrise area of Palace Resorts. Guests can enjoy activities including yoga, CrossFit-style classes, traditional spinning and Pilates and guests of the Palace Wellness Suites get access to a private instructor for aqua spinning in a private pool.
Leave the beauty products at home! Well, at least some of your main beauty essentials –and get this, even your flat iron! Each guest room is stocked with an original CHI Ceramic Hairstyling Iron and CHI Pro Hair-Dryer, as well as the CHI wetline beauty products including Infra Shampoo, Infra Treatment (conditioner), body lotion, and bubble bath.
Enjoy the 24-hr room service! One of our favorite parts of traveling is relaxing in the room and enjoying room service. Whether you order breakfast (we recommend the huevo rancheros) or a midnight snack, don’t miss out on ordering whatever your heart desires –even if at 2 a.m.!
Order something from the Pillow Menu for a restful night’s sleep. One of our favorite services from Moon Palace with options like: Orthopedic, Lavender, Chamomile, Goose Feather, Hypo-Allergenic, Water and Mint Lavender. Aromatherapy scents to fill your room are also available in Balance (coconut and verbena), Energizing (tangerine and vanilla), Revitalizing (eucalyptus and mint), and Relaxing (lavender).
Swim with dolphins and show your family a once-in-a-lifetime experience with the onsite Dolphin Encounter! Learn about Dolphins, interact with them and get even closer to activities such as the famous kiss!
Ready to dine poolside at Grand? Don’t miss an opportunity at Eat at Los Tacos –an open-air restaurant serving casual fare like tacos and Mexican tortas for both lunch and dinner.
Check out the nightclub, Noir, designed by designer Francois Frossard. You can experience all of the all-inclusive decadence Noir has to offer, whether you’re dancing the night away or enjoying a few cocktails in the lush atmosphere.
Try the FlowRider in the Sunrise section of Palace Resorts –perfect for any adventure seeker! This is the first property to have a wave simulator in all of Mexico and was created by Waveloch. This will no doubt entertain kids as they can work on their bodyboard skills, while the adults with more advanced skills can try the standup flowboards.
Traveling with teens? Have them check out the Wired Teens Lounge where they can enjoy console video games, play arcade games, watch their favorite TV shows, try delicious snacks and listen to a DJ spinning the latest hits.
