We were there with friends and family almost 2 years ago in December and we like it.

Good video. Just a couple remarks. You said in the video that Platinum is Oceanview but there are very few rooms in Platinum both on the Grand Sunset side and the Grand Riviera side that are actually Oceanview. Also depending on who you book your trip through, your transfer from the airport to the resort maybe included in your trip. Anyone that is unsure should check with your travel agent. We fly Air Canada out of Vancouver and our transfer is included. We have flown Westjet and also Sunwings and when buying the package the transfers are also included. This resort is amazing and we have been going here for the last 7 years. We stay in the Villas and highly recommend the Villas. It has its own pool with lunch served poolside. Also the area is exclusive to Villa guests and all others will be asked to leave the area. Also no kids allowed in this area.

Hello, yes not all have an ocean view but much of the platinum will have some sort of ocean view. The ones that don’t would be the ones facing the lobby side or the villa side. As for transfer, if you book with a travel agent, there is a possibility that your transfer is included in the price you pay. I booked this hotel and flight separately. The hotel offered a transfer at higher price than if I were to shop around myself. I ended up using Kalido travels for my transfer to and from the airport. Honestly, this was my first time in Mexico as I usually go to the Dominican Republic. I believe the beaches are much better in the D.R. (Punta Cana). Thank you for clarifying some points. Cheers

Thank you so much! I might've missed it, but how much $ was the ride to from the airport to the resort?

[@alilouschicago]

I booked with Kalido travels kalidotravel.com/ and payed about $140 USD for round trip and they were on time both ways. This was a private transfer for 2 people. We did not have to share or wait for anyone.

There are two hotels. The Grand Riviera Princess, and The Grand Sunset Princess. Refer to them as the Riviera or Sunset. NOT the Sunset and the Grand as you inadvertently reported. The raccoon-like animals are Coaties. Pronounced coe-AWE-tees (accent on the upper case) Normally there are lots of monkeys too. Perhaps the hurricane caused them to relocate temporarily? I have stayed there often and I would prefer to advise ‘newby’s there are NO OCEANVIEW rooms. Once in a while they’ll cut back the mangrove such that one can get get a glimpse of the ocean, but hardly oceanview. But who needs oceanview when one can spend all day at the beach ?! Also there is significant upgrades to stay in Platinum, so one should check it out when booking. Also, no mention of the shuttles running up and down both sides of the property all day ?!!

Is there a shuttle from the airport to the resort or do I need to get a taxi?

[@alilouschicago]

There are no free shuttles from the airport to the resort. You can book one on the Princess resort website. However, I did find it a little more pricier than the one I booked. The company I used was Kalidotravel. kalidotravel.com/ This was a private shuttle so no need to wait for others to join. They were also on time both ways. Good luck. I highly recommend booking a transfer before you get there. Do NOT use the taxis at the airport as they are expensive and can scam you by making you pay extra when you get to the resort. They will hold your luggage hostage till you pay and definitely do not use a credit card for a regular taxi ride.
