Picture this: white boxy, clean architecture that rises before you. Behind you, a purr of waves - pure aqua, crystal clear water that is hugged by pillowy, perfect sand. The temperature is a perfect 72 degrees. Then, as you turn around to take in this view of heaven, you feel a soft breeze. Time to hit the beach? The bar? The spa? Seems every choice is better than the next. What to do? Nothing. It'll all be here tomorrow.

We couldn't have been more pleased
I will do my best to make this review not too lengthy, but since I rely on accurate reviews myself, I am going to get into some detail. My husband and I found our vacation to SSS amazing! We stayed in a junior swim out suit in the 2000's building. If you decided to go here, you need to stay in these rooms!!!! ask for the buildings by the tennis court, unless of course you have the money to stay in a preferred suite. But to be honest, even if I had the money, having been there, I would absolutely request this building instead. The pool is completely secluded, beyond the pool is just a view of flowered shrubbery. It's like laying out by your own private pool except that a waitress comes around every 15 minutes to get you another drink! It's quiet and clean and really just the best location of a room in the whole resort. In fact the hotel had been overbooked when we arrived, and we were given a room with two double beds instead of a King size for the first night. The next day, they could move us to a "King" room, but since it would be in a different area on a different pool, we opted to spend our long overdue honeymoon in a 2 double bed room! And besides that first day, where they told us that they had been overbooked, and that we wouldn't be getting the room that I had paid for, and offered nothing in the way of compensation, WE really had no complaints. But this is a review so I will go through my list of "could have been better"s first.
We went out to Xplor for a day, and it was okay, I would suggest probably forgoing this park and go to the one with snorkeling, but the real issue was with the transportation. They somehow managed to overbook the ride home. And when it was time to leave the bus was full. Not only could I not sit with my husband, another couple had to be left behind. Because the 4 of us got there at the same time, it was quite uncomfortable reaching a decision. Thankfully for us I suppose, they were more adamant about sitting together, and asked us to get on the bus, but it still wasn't right to have to pull away from the park and stare at another couple from your hotel just sit there and watch you leave.
Again while I didn't stay in the preferred area, that pool had some construction issues that I am sure made some people very angry. And it was a little disappointing to see, but these things happen I suppose.
Room service was not great, and the burgers in general were not great. There were plenty of other completely delicious food options, but if you wanted a burger and fries, you should expect a frozen patty type deal. And it is possible that these foods made more of an impact because everything else was so delicious.
The beach was not great. The sand was great, but the beach in general, not so much. Still, the seaweed was kept cleaned up, and they had hammocks and loungers and they really made the most with what they have, but if you are obsessed with perfect beaches, you'll end up disappointed.
Lastly, and I hate to complain about this, because it really is beneficial, they were super conservationists! The majority of lights in your room won't come on unless the key is in place on the wall which is sometimes inconvenient when you come home from cocktail hour and its pitch black in your room. And when we stayed at the spa, you need to ask to have the whirl pools and fancy faucets in the pool turned on.
If you are still reading and considering this hotel, then let me tell you, really this is the perfect place for a nice low key relaxing vacation!!! The entertainment staff was just great!! Mufasa and Marcello, "El Sexy" himself, were fabulous! The service staff was just outstanding!! The food in all of the restaurants was very good, with the highlights being from the Italian one for dinner, Oceana for lunch and the breakfast buffet....oooooh the breakfast buffet!!! Our room was cleaned every day, the pools were beautiful, the bars were great and the drinks were not watered down AT ALL! Ahhh... the swim up bar!!! The fridge was always stocked with soda, water, juice and corona, and the cocktail waitresses were always on top of their game!! I really can't say enough about how much I enjoyed this trip and this resort. The spa treatments were fantastic!!! Guadalupe is the best! Such a sweetheart! And who can possibly complain about a jet tub for two in every room!!!! Seriously magical!!!! I only wish that we could have stayed a bit longer. We were so in love with just hanging out by "our" pool and drinking that we missed some activities during the day. But the shows at night made us feel like we were good participants. If you have a chance to see it, DO NOT miss the fire show!!! And if you are looking for a laid back, slightly romantic and crazy fun vacation! You've certainly found one!

Great Vacation
Ok, just got back from a 5night stay. It was amazing!
Here’s my breakdown
Rooms- Amazing! Large, modern, and very comfortable beds. Balcony has a day bed, great idea. I fell asleep listening to the ocean!! I want to clarify one thing about the bathroom; many have posted about the glass door. There is a pocket type door from the hall entrance, so you can have complete privacy in the bathroom. Overall room looks exactly like the pictures.
Restaurants – World café was great, Portofino was amazing. Oceana and Seaside were very good also.
The atmosphere at Bordeaux was amazing, food was just ok, I expected more. Barefoot grill was great for burgers, chicken and chips & salsa bar. Room service was great too, had coffee sent to room every morning, always there before the standard 35 minute wait. Veranda bar and Barracuda bar were also great, top shelf liquor.
Beach & Pool – Pools were amazing, Main pool for partying, and other pools for relaxing. Beach was very clean! I did not go in the water, but the beach was beautiful!
The property in general was beautiful. Extremely clean!
You can see people at any given time clean the property. I must say, their hard work has absolutely paid off.
I cannot say enough about the service. The employees at this hotel go out of their way to make sure you enjoy our vacation. Everyone is always smiling and seem generally happy to be there. My favorite was my housekeeper Alicia, always smiling and happy! Ingnacia at check in and jay with entertainment were also great.
Overall it was a great trip and I will be back. If you are thinking about going here, just book it, you wont be disappointed!
Olympus transfers (to and from hotel/airport)also provided great service
We stayed at Secrets Silversands the first week of August 2011. We had a wonderful time!! I can't say enough about how nice this resort is!!
The transportaition service, Olympus Tours, was there when we arrived at the airport, just as promised. It is a short drive from the airport to the hotel. Once we arrived we were greeted immediately and given a welcome cocktail! . The hotel staff was great and explained everything we needed to know The rooms were beautiful, spacious and very clean.
The food was outstanding. We made it a point to eat at a different restaurant every night. I have been to several all-inclusive resorts but this place, by far, had the best food of all. I was very impressed. The Hibachi restaurant was a lot of fun, and we sat at a table with a great group of people!! Gentlemen, make sure you have long pants and collared shirts for the restaurants in the evening. They do enforce this.
The servers poolside were very attentive, and we always had a cold drink in our hands. The entertainment staff kept things fun but were never too pushy either. Almost every single staff member was outstanding!! They genuinely went out of their way to make sure we were satisfied.
There are several pools. The main pool water was actually too warm for us and not very refreshing, but the other pools were perfect. The beach was not the greatest, but it wasn't as bad as other reviewers said. I was anticipating it to be much worse than it actually was. The hote staffl was out there every day raking the seaweed off the beach, trying to keep it as nice as they could.
We arranged to take a day trip to Isla Mujares thru Olympus tours. Nacho was the representative at the hotel, and arranged it for us. We had an awesome time!! The trip included snorkeling, lunch, shopping and most importantly, all drinks included!!
I would highly reccomend this resort for your next vacaition!!

Excellent hotel
I recently stayed at silversands, and i had a blast . The hotel was beautiful, clean, modern, it had everything you wanted and more. I stayed at the JR sweet and i read some complaints that the room was dirty, well i dont know what those people expected. i went with a group and all our rooms were clean and pristine. The breakfast buffet was great, i would recommend the french restaurant. Mexican was ok not great. I would recommend this hotel..

Can you swim at the beach? Is it rocky?12 answers

Sam I am
Yes, you can, although they warn you not to because the waves are rough and big. They can be, but if you're from the beach, they aren't bad at all.
JessN
No, you cannot swim by the beach (unless you have aqua socks). It is far too rocky and has too much coral - very few spots are just sand.
TheHoneymooners
No... this is not a swimming beach......Rocks everywhere and the water really isn't the pretty water we were looking for........
slick1532
The water is shallow. Not good for swimming.
NeedaVaction
You can but the water is dirty and very rocky. I woudn't recommend do so at the resort we stayed at. Texas beaches are better. We did visit resorts closer to Cancun where the beaches were beautiful and perfect.
red10
You can swim at the beach, but I didn't see a lot of people doing that and the beach is rocky.
DonO
The water is very shallow to approximately 100 yards out. It's not rocky, but there's a good deal of seaweed on the floor there. The water is nice and clear too.
Dinks6
really can't swim on the beach, very rocky and painful to step on the coral and lotsa seaweed too.
Nasri
no...you cannot swim at this beach. you must take a walk to the South for about 1/2 a mile past a dog that might bite your head off unless you are willing to sink you body into the disgusting water in front of the house that has this dog...avoid this resort..see my review.
more00sunplease
Rocky, but you can swim if you take your time getting in.
JeffB32
You can definitely swim at the beach, you just need to go out beyond the first 15 feet, because there is some seaweed by the coast and some rocks. But, you can go out for a long way before you reach neck deep.
SilentButDeadly
We didn't go to the beach, really. I don't think it's really a beach for swimming. The pools were great, though. The beach was actually the only common complaint I overheard. (I really didn't hear any other complaints)

What is a swim-out room?11 answers
Literary, step out onto the patio and step off into pool?
3 years, 47 months ago
Mike
Most of these swim-out rooms have a bit of lawn in-between the patio and the actual pool, so you can pull out your chairs and get some sun on the lawn in front of your room...see attached picture
NHMATraveler
I have seen other resorts' swim outs to be the pool water coming up into your staircase out of the patio so you can simply step into the water from your patio. But here at Secrets Siilversands, the swim out rooms are like this - room, patio, then a foot of lawn, then the edge of the pool.
AvidVacationers
there is a small grassy area between the patio and the pool, maybe 5'...but the pools are very close for the bottom floor, swim out rooms
sunnymo
HI MIKE, A SWIM OUR ROOM IS A ROOM WITH A POOL DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE SLIDING GLASS DOOR TO YOUR ROOM.T HEY ARE VERY CONVENIENT. STEP ONTO THE PATIO AND THEN RIGHT IN THE POOL. ENJOY....
nursemade
Yes, if you have a room on the first floor. All first floor rooms have a patio that is in front of the pool. Downside, there is no privacy for a first floor patio. All rooms above the ground floor have porches that are private.
tttt
Maybe 2 feet of grass between your patio and the pool
Micah741
It is a ground floor room, you walk out and within a few feet there is a pool. Not very private....
Catherinek25
No, the "swim out" rooms are a total waste of money. There is a lot of grass to walk on before you get to the pool from the room, and to be honest, advertising it as a swim out is just a lie.It's not like the Sandals resorts, those really are made to where you can walk out of your room into the pool. Also, if you stay in building 6, you can see the ocean from the room. Try one of those. Also, if you are interested in scuba/snorkleing, the beach here is the worst I have ever seen. Our main reason for going was to enjoy swimming in the ocean, and we were not able to do that at all becasue of all the rocks.
vjobe413
Yep... you walk out and within 20 seconds... BOOM... you're in a pool.
SukiMySuki
There might be 5-15 ft. of grass in between depending on where your room is.
braveopenseas
A room facing the pool areas. Generally there is a small grassy area in between the room and pool for privacy. Very convenient since most come with beach chairs right in front.
Anonymous
There is about 6 feet of grass between the patio and the pool.

do you need reservations for the restaurants?11 answers
We are planning on going for 4 nights. Just wanted to make sure we would not run into any problems with dining on the resort.
3 years, 37 months ago
melrose
The Secrets Resorts do not require dinner reservations at any of their restaurants.
MeganCC
You do not have to make reservations at any of the restaurants, with the exception of the Hibachi grill at Himitsu Restaurant. They do offer regular dining, though, as well. Just make sure to check out the dress codes as we did see a few couples get turned away for their shorts. (side note: the website said that some restaurants require "formal" attire, but none did while we were there....just "casual elegance"! Just so you aren't too overdressed like we were one night!!)
frostygirl
Dining was incredible. I would call to find out which restaurants are open when you go though. You need reservations for Himachi only if you want to eat Hibachi style otherwise we didn't need any for any restaurants. If you like sushi then you definitely want to go when Himachi is open. The rolls and the sashami was amazing!
The Fench restaurant was also very good along with Rata Touiolle.
We didn't eat at the steak place but heard it was very good. I am very critical when it comes to food and this place did not dissapoint.
zspeed95
You just need a reservation in the Hibachi resturant. All others are first come first serve and normally no wait. We had 85 percent occupation last week while we were there.
MSPHST
The only restaurant you will need to make a reservation for is Himitsu. A reservation is only required if you want to sit at a habachi table. You can just walk in and sit at a regular table without a reservation. Be advised that men must wear collared shirts and pants for dinner.
ispwife
no, they don't take any reservations at the restaurant but the wait usually wasn't long. I found that if i didn't want to wait for one restaurant, i'd go next door and find one that was seating right away. Suggestion, stay indoors for dinner. The restaurants outdoor are better off as lunch options.
JohnD
Oh, you may have already enjoyed your visit!
Then you've found out, only one restaurant needs reservations, the Hibatchi. You've had lots of options each night. Hope you enjoyed!!
jennybuttah
NO! Which is why we picked this resort. If you go and they don't have a table open, they will give you a "buzzer" just like if you went to a nice restaurant in the US. We only had that happen twice. We went to the lobby bar to get a drink and had a table within 10-15mins.
Anonymous
You only have to have reservations for the hibatchi.
Supersleeves
No, you do not need reservations. The only thing you have to reserve is habatchi (sp?) the day of in the Japanese restaurant.
ThinkPink
Of all the restaurants you need reservations for only one of them. This is the Japanese restaurant, and you only need reservations if you want to sit at the Benny Hana style table where they do the knife flipping and special food presentation. You have to book this table the same day you want to do it, and it's first come first serve. So if you want to eat at it at a reasonable time make sure to be at concierge the morning of at 7 a.m. right when they open up.

Upon reviewing the resort's website for their spa, https://www.secretsresorts.com/silversands/spa.asp, it does not appear that they list the pricing for the services offered.
MariaCC
Spa is very expensive as most of them at resorts are. This spa does have free amenities for all guests though. There is a calming pool and a hot therapy pool along with a cold therapy pool.. all free for all guests.
zspeed95
Spa prices are kind of high. $300 for a couples, $140 for a single person.
MSPHST
Spa massages are not worth the money....however spa atmosphere is very nice.
birthdaygirl
My husband and I got a couples massage. My therapist was a little to rough for my liking, but other than that it was nice. I also got a green coffee wrap. I would not recommend this particular service. I didn't see any results for the money. We had $200 in spa credits, and still spent about $300 for these two visits. I also jumped at the chance to recieve two different 5 minute complimentary massages out by the pool.
ispwife
There are different specials each day in the spa (e.g., facials, massage, etc). One day the special was 40% off any 55 minute deep tissue or swedish massage. They start at $149. Or they give you resort coupons for $40 off any spa service. It still adds up.
ThinkPink
The spa prices at the resort were very expensive! I recommend going to the Jungle Spa in Puerto Morelos instead. The money benefits the Mayan women, and the prices were much more affordable. It also is a unique way to learn more about their culture. My husband and I had an hour long massage (only $40 U.S. a piece), and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience! The concierge can help you arrange the services. It does require a $25 cab ride, but then you can also shop in Puerto Morelos too and make a day of it. We then walked the beach all the way back to the resort and enjoyed the lovely day (took about 1 hr. 15 minutes to walk back).
LovingTheTropics
It was $119/person for 55min june 2013

Spa was small but beatiful - There is a private pool that is available all day for your use with any service purchase - I got the fish pedicure and paid $60 - My feet were so smooth after! It wasn't my greatest pedicure but it was worth the experience - I talked with others who were thrilled with their massages - ranged from 100-220

Expensive... Around $170 for 80 min massage but they were running a promo for $119 for 80 min deep tissue.

Did anyone go on the excursions? Were the costs reasonable? Favorites?6 answers
2 years, 33 months ago
JBtravel
The excursions are a great way to spend the day and take a little break from the beach. The cost of the excursions offered on our website are typically 10% cheaper than what's offered at the resort. If you like history, the Chichen Itza Mayan ruin excursion is fascinating. I loved Xel Ha (pronounced Shell Ha) for a full day of swimming, snorkeling and sunning.
ccsusan1
We did the Tulum extreme excursion and highly recommend it! The zip-lining and repelling was really fun. The freshwater cave snorkling and ruins at Tulum were amazing! About $220 for two people.
ispwife
We took an excursion to Chichin Itza (one of the seven wonders of the world), the Mayan city with the largest existing Mayan pyramid. If you like historical stuff, this is the place for you! We booked through Apple while on the resort for this excursion. We were bussed about two hours away and got to tour the ruins with an incredible guide for about two hours. This was followed by an awesome lunch at a resort on the site. After lunch were able to go to a "cenote", a giant fresh water sinkhole, and swim for an hour! We were finally bussed back. This was about $110 a person, but worth every cent.
cmccleary44
Yes, we did Chichen Itza and Playa del Carmen. The Chichen trip was an incredible value (Tours R Fun via Olympus) and our guide Ave was absolutely incredible. It was a LONG day (12-13 hours) but definitely something you should see once in your life.
The Playa shopping trip was nice, but would probably just take a cab next time to avoid having to make 10 stops at other hotels on the way there. We got it for free from Olympus though so can't really complain.
Bowser
We went on the Dolphin discovery excursion where we did the royal swim with the dolphins, It was amazing and very reasonable price wise. However, be aware you are off the resort for 6 to 7 hours but the rep says it is only a 3 hour trip.

Not quite sure but I don't think its needed

It's all about personal preference, but given the service oriented nature of this resort, personally, I did not see the value. The preferred lounge always seemed dead when we walked by with the fun being more in the common areas.
Better to use that extra money to upgrade the room itself.

I didn't play at this resort, but spoke to a gentleman that was playing four times last week and had played when he visited the year prior. He said that you might as well figure $100 for your "complimentary" round. He still felt it worth the money as he returned in consecutive years...

$100 per person which includes round, transportation, rental clubs, cart, and a bucket of balls.

Its good, not great, the French restaurant was the best. Breakfast buffet was good. Most the of time the seem be missing something, everything was edible, just wasnt fanastic. Dessert was below average. The barefoot grill had good hamburger and hot dogs for lunch. The food at the Mexican Fiesta was great don't miss it.
jtripper
Enjoyed all the restaruants except the Italian - worst meal ever!!
The Asain was the greatest by far - also enjoyed the Mexican
Breakfast is average and lunch varies - everyday lunch is different - sometimes great and sometimes disappointing - but there's always a constant room service menu!
traceface
Food is amazing, you will have so many options: French, Italian, Mediterranean, Asian, Mexican, sea food etc and the service is impeccable.

How much does it cost to rent golf clubs at the nearby golf course?3 answers
2 years, 25 months ago
Kyle
It is best to contact the golf course directly. Although Secrets works to offer our clients discounted golfing rates, we do not have the club rental rates.
LaurenCC
you get free "green fees" but you must rent a cart: $75 per person, and club rental is $40. That's the peak morning rates, I think it's cheaper after 2pm
BrianW
It cost me $100 for a round, transportation to and from hotel, rental clubs, cart, and bucket of balls. Great course.

We did not travel to Playa, but we did go to Puerto Morelos. It was about 10 min. by taxi. Cantina Habanero has the coldest beer I've ever had. If youre looking for something larger, with more people, Bar Unico is the place to be. A thing to note: we asked how much the taxi to town would be and were told $15 each way. 24hrs later, when we actually wanted to take the trip, we were told $25.

It also offers a free mobile app for smartphones that allows guests to stay connected to family and friends at the resort and at home, without any cell phone roaming charges.

The workout room and equipment was actually better than I expected. Free weights and cardio with plenty of room. The treadmills and bikes were in working order. I think they were the Lifefitness brand.
diva82
The fitness center is up to date
AlixCC
4 ellipticals and treadmills, a few regular exercise and recumbent bikes and steppers. Total body gym, pull up bars, and plenty of weight/resistance machines for major leg and arm muscle groups.
Sonny33
The workout facility is actually pretty decent (I'm an amateur bodybuilder). It had enough equipment to get in a good workout. It included a rack of dumbells; about 15 machines; a couple free weight bars/benches; and a handful of steppers/treadmills. And as you can imagine, it doesn't get very crowded--I was the only one in there for a majority of the time.

Can you take off and run 2-3 miles on the beach or any trails?2 answers
1 year, 13 months ago
South Dakota
The resort sits on a beautiful stretch of beach on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. While you may certainly go your own path and run along the beachside, it gets narrow at times and can cut off shortly after going beyond the resort border. We suggest whenever going out to bring a friend along so you are not alone! While Silversands's beach isn't as large as Secrets's other properties, it is exceptional in its quality.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please call us at 1.800.915.2322.

you can run toward Cancun on the beach but not the other way as there is no beach that way
there are no trailes

As of June 2018 you can bring your furry friend along!
Uber posh architecture. Sophisticated, ultra modern buildings with sleek lines. It's LA on the beach.
The ahh-some suites with private terraces or balconies - some with killer views of the hypnotic turquoise water. (Will be hard not to stare 24/7).
Epic, romantic moments like dining on the beach under the twinkling stars, the purring waves just inches away.
Sweet Junior swim-out suites - instant gratification for cooling off.
Secrets box for private room service delivery - you don't ever have to see a human if you don't want to.
Foodie Alert: there are featured chefs nearly every night who can whip up some wildly creative cuisine.
Losing all track of time at the spa with Purifying hydrotherapy and Swedish massage.
The Staff who makes you feel like family - everyone knows your name. (Better than "Cheers" - the liquor is top-shelf).
Breakfast in bed with mimosas. Nothing more need be said.
For birthdays, the champagne, cake and everyone at the resort singing "Happy Birthday" to you. Woot!
There's usually a waiter hovering & ready to take your drink order. Serious service goin' on here.
What We'd Change
While the beach is a little on the small side, it's so beautiful you can't help but be thankful for this little slice of heaven.
Why You Should Go
Just 20 minutes away from the airport so you'll be at the resort before you can say "margarita."
Upgrade to Preferred Club, get better rooms, a private pool, and exquisite desserts/fine liquors and more.
Go reef snorkeling at the world's second largest barrier reef. Boom.
You can play tennis, bocce ball or go on a scuba diving tour.
For something a little different, there's Euro-bungee. (You're like a human slingshot. It's a blast).
Get to pool by 9 a.m. to snag the floating chairs and mats in the pool.
You can swim out pretty far into the ocean before you are neck deep. But be careful!
Enjoy a complimentary round of golf at Grand Riviera Maya. Schwing.
It's Rainforest Alliance Certified so it's environmentally-friendly. Big kudos.
Snorkeling or kayaking out to the aahh-mazing coral reefs.
There are Hobie cats and sailing, too. Whatever floats your beach boat.
There's a special hospitality suite for changing into beach gear if you arrive and your room is not ready yet. They know you luv your beach.
