Is VIDANTA the Best Family Resort in Mexico?

[@maxgillie]

I will agree that Vidanta is an amazing resort, but I'll add a caveat. My son was assaulted by another guest (for sitting on an unmarked lounger by a pool that they claim was theirs) on Vidanta property. Because we made a scene, we were asked to leave, not the person who assaulted my son. Something that we previously had never considered is that security is not there to protect you and they do not allow the Mexican police on to the resort property. We have since found other people who have been assaulted on the property and Vidanta quietly tries to cover it up. Just keep that in mind when travelling.

[@MomDuty]

Oh wow! Had no idea. I’m so so sorry to hear that. Now that I think of it, you are right. There’s no security😲

[@robinpettit7827]

I do like Vidanta, some criticisms come to mind. Lighting is inadequate in the units. The next criticism is it is too huge. If you want to exercise to get around, this is the place to go. They do provide electric vehicles to transport but it can take up to 10 minutes for one to come around, depending on where you want to go. Depending on which building you are staying at can limit your options for food and water activities. We're happy overall, but as we age, the above issues tend to come to the fore. However, facilities are very nice overall and the grounds are beautiful.

[@MomDuty]

Yeah I’d have to agree. Waiting for the electric vehicles is very inconvenient. Especially if you have hungry husband and kids.lol. So you really have to plan it out. I actually do like that it’s big because it’s never overcrowded in one area. But again….it does take time to go from one place to another. I would definitely go back. I’m planning on taking my extended family there one day. So many activity options and restaurants! Great place to unwind and relax OR the opposite…..get the full Vidanta experience and explore the grounds.

I am about to reserve Grand Mayan. I won’t have access to Grand Luxxe or Grand Bliss pools. Will this be enjoyable? Where are the lazy river and water park located?

[@MomDuty]

The Grand Mayan is located next to the lazy river and wave pool. Yes of course you’ll still have fun! You can get a golf cart shuttle to take you anywhere. You’re going to have a blast! Do you have kids?

We have been members of Vidanta for over 18 years and this is by far the best video I have seen! You guys are professionals correct? Nuevo is our favorite of all the locations! We can’t wait to go back!

[@MomDuty]

Oh my goodness! Thank you so much! So kind of you to say. We aren’t professionals. Haha. We just REALLY enjoy creating these vlogs for all of you and memories for ourselves:) That’s great that you’re a member! Now i know why. This property is so magical. Counting the days we can go back.

Hey! I would love to visit this resort after having watched your video! How long did you guys stay there to be able to enjoy so many different activities? I am trying to see for how long I should book for.

[@MomDuty]

Hi Jess! Thank you so much for watching! We really appreciate it:) We went for a week, loved it and realized we wanted to spend more time there. So we stayed for a whole month! It was awesome! But I recommend 2 weeks so that you can really take in all it has to offer. When are you planning on going?

[@DarlaIsaak]

Thank you for this complete and fun video! It helps us to describe to our family and friends what this place is all about! We have been owners since 1994, when there were 6 buildings at the Mayan Palace. We love it so much and have had generations of our family here and pass and the legacy lives on and on..... Very talented video and editing!!

[@MomDuty]

Oh thank you SO MUCH for the compliments🙏☺️🥰Wow! That is wonderful to hear! You must have seen it really grow to what it is today. I can’t even imagine.

I read a lot of negative reviews on Trip Advisor about this resort. See for yourself

I want to know what is the price range in their restaurants? How much do you spent in one meal for 2 adults and 2 kids? In that way i can calculate how much do i need to spend for a day in foods.

[@MomDuty]

Hey there! So sorry for the very late reply. I’m active on my IG account: @momduty that’s where all our vlogs and posts are. They have a range of prices. So they have the nicer restaurants and the more casual bites restaurants. There’s no meal plan there. Since eating at very nice restaurants can add up, what we did is buy food. They have a grocery store on the property. I made breakfast almost every morning wether it was cereal or an omelette for my kids. And bought snacks. You can also order pizza for dinner if you want a lower cost dinner option. Gong was our favorite Asian restaurant but its pricey. But unbelievably delicious. We treated ourselves 2 times during the week there.

[@MomDuty]

They also have a breakfast buffet deal. You get 10% off if you do the sales presentation. But what they don’t tell you is that you have to go during certain breakfast times in order to get the 10% off. With kids that didn’t work for us. The time was way too late or way too early.

[@MomDuty]

Sorry for the late response Fiddy. I’m way more active on IG: @momduty. Are you heading to Vidanta? I wish they had a meal plan but they don’t.

That is awesome!!! I’m so excited for you! I’m counting down the days we can go back again. I miss Vidanta. Nope we’re not owners but we have a travel membership that allowed us to get those rooms. Are you an owner?

[@brendonjay2101]

That’s great. I’m not an owner but have also used my travel membership to visit there. It’s truly such an amazing place with so much to do and see. Most places I wouldn’t go multiple times but there is always something new or different when I go.

[@MomDuty]

Yes! I totally hear you. We went just to try it out for a week, fell in love with Vidanta and then ended up extending for a whole month! So true, there is so much to do. We barely could fill it all in one month.lol. I wonder what will be new when you go back. You gotta tell us:)

Great video, I had a blast at Vidanta Nuevo Vallarta! However, I got scammed by a Vidanta timeshare salesman. I loved vidanta so I wanted to buy in... multiple salespeople lied to me and sold me a membership that was NOT vidanta. I was told I would have access to Vidanta forever... in reality my access to Vidanta ends in 5 years. They are refusing to give me my deposit back and I am going to be complaining to the Mexican authorities.
