Grand Velas All Suites & SPA Resort

We had a GREAT time. Where to start?? The Mini bar in our suite was complimentary as was room service & all drinks, meals, snacks at the pool. I had more than my share of mango popsicles :) Terry & I enjoyed the infinity pool & had our picture taken in it for good measure! The Welcome dinner on the beach was a blast. I enjoyed the marshmallow roast after dinner and brought home 6 of the little pottery shot glasses for the kids to use for Tequila shots. Mercedes Benz had lined up numerous activities for us to enjoy. I chose to take the 2 hour Cooking course from Chef Claudio & came away with my own chef’s apron & the recipes for the items we prepared in class! The next day we opted for the Zip-Line canopy tour high in the Sierra Madres instead of swimming with the dolphins , whale watching or Golf. I thought it would help me to conquer my fear of heights- hmmm- not so much. It was thrilling but I wouldn’t do it again. The suspension bridges were frightful & the rappelling to get down at the end of the tour was something else!
The Spa was such a relaxing & zen like environment . I was totally pampered during the 80 min. facial. You can use the hydro-pool and steam room as well as just lounging listening to the waterfall &sipping tea prior to any scheduled spa appointment in a fluffy robe and slippers provided upon your arrival to either the Men’s or Women’s check-in area. I highly recommend this Resort.
