Grand Sirenis - Not as good of a resort in terms of food or such, but you get your own concierge for every building which is very convenient. The beach was fantastic for corals and fish snorkeling and the drink waitresses are always around ready to take your order. Good service, good beach, not as good food, not as nice looking of a resort.

Grand Riviera Princess - Beautiful resort, best buffet restaurants, a la carte restaurants weren't as good as the buffet. Beach wasn't good and had no corals and very few fish to look at when snorkeling, boring. The beach also lacked drink waitresses and was very commercialized in terms of sales people bugging you all over the place. Concierge was all the way at the front of the resort which was inconvenient. FREE shuttles to Playa del Carmen. All though the food was awesome, I missed how personal the other resort felt in terms of customer service. I also missed the beautiful beach.

Need to figure out a resort that has good everything without an expensive price. I think on both trips I paid approximately $1000 all inclusive with flights.
