Moon Palace The Grand Cancun 

Inside The Grand you’ll find the extensive wellness retreat, O Spa. This isn’t your quick pre-dinner massage stop, but a serious spa with a full hydrotherapy circuit including steam rooms, saunas, plunge pools and cascading waterfalls. Treatments range from deep-tissue massages to botanical rituals and couples sessions. The fitness studio sits nearby, fully equipped and ready for anything from yoga to strength training.

There’s mini golf tucked among the palms, a bowling alley, chocolate tasting, an arcade for competitive types, and a steady line-up of poolside games, Vegas-style shows, theme parties, live music. When you want a change of scene, you can wander or grab a golf cart to Nizuc or Sunrise for extra restaurants, bars, and beach time, then head back to The Grand for quieter evenings.

Non-motorised options like kayaking and paddleboards along the beach are included in your stay are.

The resort group treats and reuses most of its water for landscaping, uses solar panels to generate part of its electricity, and runs a coastal-management system that protects the beach and nearby mangroves. Wider initiatives also include reducing single-use plastics and landscaping with native plants to lower water and waste use.

The Grand’s Playroom is exclusive to this part of Moon Palace and is enormous, with soft play zones, climbing structures, mini racetracks, and creative workshops that keep children busy for hours. Teenagers gravitate towards the Wired Lounge, a slick hang-out space with consoles, air hockey, and arcade games. The Family Suites add extra space and connect two bedrooms, and the water park works for every age, from toddlers to teens. Families based at The Grand can also use the facilities in the other Moon Palace resorts, but those staying there can’t access the Playroom or water park here — a perk that helps keep things pleasantly uncrowded.
