This is a beautiful, all inclusive property with gorgeous views.

This 7 nights all-inclusive stay was the best trip ever!

The All Inclusive Live Aqua Beach Resort Cancun, absolutely fits into this category.

Hotel: Live Aqua Cancun: Ocean Front – Premium Room King Bed – all inclusive: 4.5 Stars!

The food is better than most all inclusive resorts and I have stayed at more than 20.

I would recommend several other all inclusive in the Cancun area,

Third night we went to MB which is their nicest of the all-inclusive restaurants.

Ala carte food was quit average for an all inclusive.

Live Aqua was an all inclusive and adult only resort.

The resort as a whole is everything you could want in an all inclusive resort.

There are too many all inclusive resorts that offer a higher quality across the board for any of these areas to be skimped on.

but this place does not feel like a typical all inclusive resort, more like a hotel with a very nice pool and beach.

The best food I've experienced at any all-inclusive
▪︎ Make the tipping culture clearer upon booking.

This hotel is the best all inclusive we have ever stayed in.

This resort also charges for normal amenities and is far from all inclusive.

This was an awesome and fun all-inclusive adult only resort.

This all-inclusive is awesome if you like low key grownup vibes.

One of the best all inclusive we have been to.

Great beach and pool area and there are plenty of chairs and umbrellas.

What truly was a unforgettable moment was Alfredo Santamaría coming down to meet us on the beach as lovely music was playing at the start of New Year’s Eve night.

But we gave our names and went for a brisk walk on the beach.

The food was amazing and the pool and Beach area were spectacular.

The beach and pool area were beautiful, nice and clean as well as heated

butlers, Eulalio and Chef Benedicto at Hidden Garden, Marco our smoothie guy, and Edouard on the beach.

but we had a really good time meeting new people, chilling on the beach and exploring downtown Cancun.

The property is beautiful and the beach is gorgeous.

The balcony was plenty big and we were able to see both the beach and bay.

Beach:
Walkability: You can walk for kilometers either North or South along this white sand beach.

The people that you could book the cabanas with and get the beach towels from were always very friendly and even remembered us each day.

The weather was mostly cloudy and rainy so we didn't hang at the pools or beach much.

Beach was clean and well attended for all of our needs.

Best part was the beach and pool areas with daily activities and fun!

Pros:
Beautiful beach with no seaweed

Variety of pools (they are pretty chilly if the outside temp is 75-82 F).

El Chef Chileno was very accommodating and kind.

After we were shown the hotel & room I thought it was new construction instead of over four decades old.

-so remember how I had the con for the construction next store?

They put us in a room next directly next to a construction zone.

We were initially placed on the right side of the hotel near the construction of the new RIU hotel which was very noisy, so the hotel was flexible and put us on the other side with an ocean view, making our 6th anniversary truly special.

I requested to change the room due to a lot of noise from constructions.

While there was construction next door, I didn’t hear it once.

Construction site next door was a major eye sore.

Imagine our shock on entering our garden view room after checking in , the whole view from the balcony is a construction site , not the type of garden view I had in mind when I booked !!

Cons: resort is older and needs some updates/maintenance, not many daily activities at the resort, location is not very private (noisy construction next door).

A large hotel is under construction next door, creating an intermittent noise problem for the next few months.

The daily construction noise was terrible and continued til 1 and sometime 2 am in the morning.

I was ok with the room until the 1st morning when I woke up and there was a lot of construction going on next door.

Be aware that “premium garden view rooms” may well place you on one side of the hotel facing a new construction next door, while the other side puts you over the mechanical plant and it’s constant noise.

I would ask for a room where you can’t see the construction – if possible.

Our room was room 1264 and should be blocked off until the construction is done.

When we were there, there was quite a bit of remodeling happening and we’re looking forward to going back and seeing the updates!

We could have looked over a construction site next door and not had the night time noise, so the couple of evenings of musical noise were not a bad trade off!

Neither Monse or Alajandra(manager) at the front check in counter was able to find me a room that wasn't extremely loud due to construction or from huge air vents for the hotel.

Very attentive and suggestive with meals.

The 6 restaurant selection and outside grilling food court gave many delicious choices no matter what meal you were eating.

The food was wonderful; high quality, smaller portions with interesting presentations, all with a professional and approachable staff.

The food was phenomenal as well as his Service.

At the end of our dinner he surprised us with these special plates with great conversation (not knowing we were here to celebrate our 1 year anniversary) so it was extra special!

Every course was fantastic and was our favorite meal at Lice Aqua.

Azur restaurant is a favorite for location on the resort.

The food for New Year’s Eve was great quality food, very well made, and presented.

The property is beautifully maintained and the food is just fabulous.

The food was delicious (I did get an upset tummy troubles into day 5 and 6 -

They definitely do not skimp out on the alcohol at the bars/restaurants which was a huge bonus

Also, Caeser at the Mb restaurant was incredible.

Our favorite was Azul, the Mediterranean restaurant.

We got massages during our stay and it was personalized and the greatest massage I have ever gotten.

Rebecca in the lobby gives amazing hand massages and was very helpful with spa bookings.

I liked the beach area and the fact that on most days we could either sit on the breach loungers or book a cabana with its included foot massage.

We had facials and massages and used the hydrotherapy, sauna, and  vapor room each day we had a service.

It was relaxing, the spa services and attendants were some of the best that I have encountered with extensive traveling.

They helped us with check in, helped make spa and restaurant reservations and checked in consistently to make sure our stay was perfect.

The couples massage was one that made my husband fall in love with professional massages.

Alexandra, Hector, Flavio and Jonathan at the towel hut - thank you so much for always, without fail, setting us up in our cabana and scheduling my foot massages like clockwork.

Elena and Karina give the best foot massages ever!!!

Try the spa, they have excellent masseuses on staff.

If I'd known this, I would've budgeted it in to my trip

To conclude, this is a wonderful resort with many positives; the spa, amazing rooms, great choice of restaurants, immaculate grounds and near to the airport.

Morelia for helping ro arrange things before we arrived, Daniel and Guillermo in the Aqua lounge for their excellent service, Flavio and  his team (including Hector the protector) for ensuring our cabana experience was seamless,  Gabriel (Gabo) for making sure we stayed hydrated on the beach, Elena, Nancy and Mayeli for our wonderful foot massages, David our wonderful waiter at Sea Corner, our

We loved the daily foot massages and cabana as well as the included couples massage.

Special shout out to: Jon at pool area; Santos and Raul at Azur; Rebeca, Daisy, Alexia, Sonia and Lucy Spa Team; Siete: Daniel, Marco, Ana, Franco, Hector, Cristiano and Rosalindo; Cesar at Sea Corner; At Sushi : Julio chef, sushi chef Carlos Gonzalez, SushiChef Jonathan; Mb: Julio, Frida; Cabana Hut: Miguel, Edouard, Rodrigo, Alexandra, Flavio, Hector, Rodrigo; Paella: Luis; Eduardo at Hidden Garden; Burger grill: Porfi; Bracelets: Erick; Bbq chicken: Jose.

The hotel itself was great as well I appreciated the spa like feel and the crowd was great.

My wife and I did the couples massages and that was very relaxing.

It was cleaned daily and turned down at night with accompanying aromatherapy scents for our pillows.

Thank you Alfredo and Ashley for you leadership in putting together the best team in Cancun.

You could feel he is passionate in hospitality and our dining experience was nothing short of enjoyable with Omar as our server!

Live Aqua is lucky to have him as an employee!

Very helpful with restaurant recommendations and restaurant and cabana  reservations.

He was very helpful with menu recommendations and was a very friendly server.

Thank you Live Aqua team and we will see you soon!

The staff was incredible and went out of their way to make our experience so memorable.

The staff were excellent too - they all work very hard.

The staff here were also super friendly and very helpful with any questions or needs that we may have.

I'd like to give a shout out to Roberto and Kenya our

Everyone at the resort was very attentive, polite and helpful.

He recommended and explained each meal for us.

The best part of Live Aqua is definitely the staff.

We met a few folks, prayed for restoring relationships and family.

The staff here will bend over backwards to resolve it and they are truly interested in feedback.

His experience, care and hard work were very appreciated by everyone in our group.

Hotel Personnel who had a direct impact on our stay was the Ashley Garcia who should be revered for his dedication to leadership and hospitality.

Our experience was made even better by the service provided by our

Omar at Azur made the experience extra special for me and my wife.

They definitely made the experience better in spite of some of the deficiencies of the resort.

My boyfriend and I stayed at Live Aqua for 8 nights in Dec 2023 and it was a magical experience.

Among the most opulent experiences in Cancun, this place stands out.

Cesar at MB stood out the most with his warmth and willingness to make our final meal unlike anything we experienced.

Their goal is to truly make your experience super special.

We had an excellent experience at the carnivore restaurant, they gave us the service from the Italian place and it was amazing 
…………………………………………………………………………………………………….

House Keeping: Our housekeeping experiences were wonderful.

The drinks service on the beach was the best that I had ever experienced as they came round often which for me was good for my water, sprite, or a cheeky cocktail (or two – I do like a pina colada or Cosmopolitan).

but is pretty much all vendors/shops that we experienced and that's not a positive thing.

The scents of the hotel were one thing we weren’t expecting and found to be such a cool thing as well making the experience that much more elegant and memorable.

This fact in and of itself says a lot about the experience you will find here.

I do have to say I had a great experience with all of the servers/staff at that restaurant and went back for breakfast as well.

Cesar (Buffet and NYE Host) 
Estephany (Front Desk)
Ricardo (server at Azur NYE)
Noe (supervisor) was so kind
Jonathan (supervisor) 
Aminael 
The director of operations, gentleman who was always walking around attentively and introduced us to Alfredo was so kind 
The cartoonist vendors (floor P)
Maria (Ino) cigar vendor (floor P)

If you need a trusted taxi driver that will treat you like family ask for Max Martinez when requesting a taxi in the lobby he is amazing!

They even set up a personal Whatsapp Group chat with us as a means of instant communication when we needed anything from booking dinner to ordering a taxi.

The diving was at Aqua World a short taxi ride away, or you can get the bus for $1.

Guests dont be afraid to leave the resort, we went to the fun party side of town, took a taxi at night and took the bus during the day.

Would recommend taking bus as it costs $1, comes frequently and runs all day versus taxi which was $15 for probably a five month walk.

When we took a Taxi with a highly knowledgeable driver, he began talking about all the different resorts.

From the moment you get out of the taxi, you have a bell boy waiting to get your bags, they take you to check in, and gather all the necessary items for you.

She handled our dinner reservations, taxis, massages among just a few things.

Fabulous hotel and a short 5 min taxi ride to the nightlife.

waiters, pool staff, bartenders, front desk, concierge, taxi drivers, parrot vetrinarian….

Check In: From the minute we got out of our taxi we were greeted with a glass of sweet tea and a smile as Alicia guided us through the check in process.

And while my husband and friends returned from an outing, when entering the hotel from the taxi, he was approached and someone tried to sell him.

From the moment you arrive until the taxi arrives for your departure, this hotel takes you to paradise.

The price to go by taxi to the airport was 500 pesos.

Cancun— Felix, Mariana, Heber, Alejandra, Jonathon at pool, Kevin, Martin, Enrique at AKA bar, Marco in Mb, Norma, Victor in Starbucks, Victor, Katia, Aaron, Victor, & Marco, at Siete, Aminael & Eddie at pool, Arabi at spa, Jesus, Casandra, Santos & Isaac at Veranna, Cesar, Adrianna and Astrid at spa, Gerardo at pool, Faride with birds, Martin at front, Cirila in cleaning, Daniel and Fernando at Siete and Starbucks, Victor at Starbucks, Daniel at the pool, Hector at Egos for offering us water while we waited in the lounge for our airport taxi.

We were shuttled to and from the airport, so we didn’t have to worry about getting a taxi or a rental car or whatever!

If you want to try something really fun and good, take a $10 taxi and visit Surfin Burrito.

From the moment we walked in until the taxi took us away, we felt like we belonged.

We all had a great day on the beach making new memmories.

The beach is ok, and is roped off from vendors

Resort guests are kicked out of beach and pool chairs when ship passengers arrive.

The location is perfect, right on the beach and close to everything.

The guys at the pool and the beach are great.

We enjoyed very much the breakfast in restaurant right on the beach.

The girl who cleaned our room, Monica, was very good and so pleasant.

Happy hour at the pool and beach 11am-12 and 3-4pm.

Beach in front is great as are the pools.

but for the most part the area was looking great, beaches still needed to recoup some sand.

Jesus was awesome at the beach with chairs etc.

Incredible views from both the beach and the pool.

Walking distance to everything and right on the beach.

Guys at the beach (especially Carlos) were always available and accommodating.

This year our view from the pool is blocked by the Mango deck addition and they added cabanas on the beach in the front row that obstruct the ocean view.

The beach service guys are always top notch and will get you what you need.

I was walking along the beach and I saw that the place is clean and with air conditioning inside and the experience was extraordinary despite the fact that I was not a guest of the hotel and the work staff was excellent.

We are beach people as we love being by the ocean and mingle with the vendors when we choose to.

but respectful sales folks along the beach if you opt for a cabana rather than poolside.

The Casa Dorada Los Cabos Resort & Spa is near these landmarks: El Arco de Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo main square, Playa Grande, Chileno Beach, Playa Palmilla (Palmilla Beach), Playa Grande, Playa Grande, Medano Beach, Marina Cabo San Lucas, Playa Grande, Ivan Guaderrama Art Gallery, Playa del Amor, Mt.

The hotel is beautiful, immaculate, with a great view of the ocean, and a small swimming beach. It is very close to El Chileno, one of the most popular beaches in the area, with very pretty landscape and a first aid station (beware of jelly fish in here!)

The Office, Omega and Mango Deck have a lot going on which is great if you want to walk over a short distance to party and eat/drink on the sand on the beach.

It is close to many amazing restaurants- Roasted Grill, The Office, Esquina, and Edith's just to name a few!

The Office and Mango within arms reach too.

Mango Deck, The Office, Ediths, Tres Serenes and Roasted Grill.

Noel Mata Reyes, front office manager, and his team have done a great job taking care of every detail during our stay.

Good thing is the resort is located right next to the Mango Deck, Office, and Me Cabo resort which have an awesome vibe that you can join in.

Front Office Guest Service Mgr, Noel is very helpful & accomodating.

These things take your entire day and you are usually trapped in an office.

The Office & the Mango Deck are so close they feel as if they are part of the property.

Wonderful week with special kudos to Monica( in the office) , and Luis, Emilio, and Gabino at both the pool and beach 
They are wonderful longtime employees who make our family( especially our 2 and 4 year old grandchildren) feel special
Thanks again for a great week

We have enjoyed getting off the resort to enjoy Edith’s and The Office too-

You can walk to Mango Deck and The Office from the pool area which is right next to the hotel with a gate in the back with a security officer there to let you in and out of the gate.

So I was able to setup my office in the spacious 1-Br.

If you’re looking for a must-remember moment or simply want nice photos taken on vacation, stop by her office at the resort!

- The Office is a well-known icon, and we had some great food and drink there; definitely recommend.

The resort is close to everything you want , beach,  Mango Deck and The Office.

you are right in the middle and right next to water sports, massages, Mango Deck and the office.

Right next to the mango deck and the office.

Hotel is directly next to the mango deck and the office.

When Luis, the lifeguard, was there he made sure none of the vendors would come directly up to your chair, touch you, and persist to try and sell their goods even when you have said "No thank you".

The lifeguard helped me out of the water and up the sand and the service at the beach really treated us like princess’s.

We used the chairs and food service out at the beach and everyone there was amazing as well, even the lifeguard was a joy to talk to.

Aleaessa (Lifeguard) was very friendly, attentive and made sure all guests in his area were comfortable and safe.

Specific staff at the hotel that made our trip extra enjoyable were Noel at the front desk, Ceasar at activities desk, Emilio and Daniel with beach service, Eleison the lifeguard is super friendly and helpful, and Carlos around the pool made us feel very welcome daily.

He was a life guard for a while and has moved into guest services recently.

While I believe his duties are that of the beach life guard, Luis is extremely customer service oriented.

👘
- Door man or security guard: Thank you for the recommendations to Taco Gardenia, we loved it 🌮

My only complaint was being ask to do timeshare tours right after checking in.

Very friendly staff from the greeters at the front and back beach doors, bellmen, front desk, concierge, B bar bartender, Cristian at the hotel restaurant, the lifeguard at beach (sorry I don’t remember name

Luis the lifeguard and all the amazing waiters at the beach really make you feel taken care of.

Luis, the lifeguard is amazing and so friendly

Luis the lifeguard is the kindest and hardest working man on the beach.

Luis, lifeguard, was always there monitoring beach activities and people swimming in the ocean.

We felt VERY SAFE with COVID safe guards in place everywhere at the Hotel and throughout Cabo !!!

He was attentive and went beyond the call of duty during this crazy COVID 19 time. .

Pool Side - Joel & Rafael 
Beach - Fidencio U
Lifeguard - Luis (thank you for always keeping an eye out for everyone.

Luis the lifeguard is terrific, as mentioned in several other reviews, both watching as you swim and helping with the chairs and umbrellas.

To walk to the Marina and the "town" only took a few minutes or a quick uber ride.

There was a little walk to the marina and downtown Cabo,

Just minutes to walk to the marina where everything is located!

We easily walked to the marina area and downtown (daily).
