Oasis Playa

I went during the Canadian spring break in late Feb. Me and my two friends were sharing one double bed room. The room itself was fine, we weren't expecting much, and only in it at night. However, our room was across from another hotel that was being built, and like 500 workers arrived everyday really early in the morning - which sucked because we were always woken up at like 7:00AM. The food was decent. During the day, they have a small place on the beach that serves hamburgers, and other small dishes. Truthfully I only ate enough to not get hungry, I was in Cancun to drink :). Dinner was always alright, big buffet offering anything from seafood to beef. As for the partying, there was a pretty big group of us Canadians, and all got along. Not enough ladies though. The bartenders were friendly, and didn't mind continually filling up our beer bong. I was suprised at the number of older folks though, I think Oasis Cancun has a lot more college kids, and less older people. The entertainment staff was great. We went out with a few of the guys on their day off, and just got hammered. They knew the people that worked at one of the bars, and we got VIPish treatment. If you are going for Spring break, i'd honestly suggest booking at Cancun Oasis, but if that's full, the Playa is still good.

went to oasis playa oct 2005. rooms were ok, nothing spectacular but they were clean. food was absoultely dire. 11 of us went together and there was not a day that one or other was not sick. when we started to eat dinner out at night we were ok. not in a hurry back there. nicknamed the buffet hall "sloppy joes"

We were their(6) in my party,family on Oct16th,for 12 days.We were caught in the hurricaine Wilma.We can never thank the staff,Carla,and I think Frank,anyway he told me he worked the night shift in the hotel before the hurricaine.They were above and beyond their duties.They never ceased trying to make us as confortable as possible.We will always remember how well we were taken care of by the hotel.We did not want for food or water through the whole ordeal.I just sing enough praise about the way we were well taken care during those days we had to wait before it was safe to leave.My sister in law made a joke saying if they interviewed her when we arrived home she said she was going to tell them"if you got to do a hurricaine do it in Cancun.(smile).Hats off to Oasis Playa,Iam sorry it took me so long to write this ,again THANK YOU.

me and my family stayed at oasis playa in october 2005 when hurricane wilma hit. The staff looked after us so well, they were really friendly and we can not wait till we go back. The rooms,pools and food were all brilliant, we didn't have a complaint about anything. If u decided to go to Cancun stay at oasis playa as the staff are wonderful and you are certain to have a fantastic holiday.

We just got back from Oasis Playa. We were four single ladies travelling together. There were hardly any other singles at the resort. It wasn't truly an all-inclusive - many items were an additional surchage, ie. safe in room, steak, lobster, alcohol, etc. Some of our jewelry went missing from our room. There was no bar fridge in our room, no water, no pop, no drinks. All of the bars closed pretty early at the resort. They say that you can use the sister resorts, but you need a day pass, and there are restricted times when you can visit. There is quite the distance between them also, you would need to take the bus. The beach, ocean and weather were absolutely fabulous. There were alot of Brits there, and some were incredibly rude and ignorant, we did however meet some nice ones. No other Canadians though. The nightly entertainment was pretty pathetic, and I didn't see any theme nights. The disco was absolutely dead. The night snack consisted of a mystery meat sandwich with a piece of cheese and tomato. Yuck! None of us would ever go back.

All I have to say is that Oasis Playa is NOT a four star hotel!
