I recently hosted 336 people at the lovely JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa and our trip was top notch and our guests loved the hotel. The Sales Incentive Trip was well handled by the hotel and our guests experienced the JW service I expected. I would bring a group to the JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa (or any other JW property) again, without a doubt.

This was my first trip to Mexico so I was nervous about not speaking Spanish. Everyone that I came in contact with was so very nice and accommodating. I was blown away by the service they offered which made the event I was attending even more special. It was such a great experience that I wrote to the GM. The views and waterfront areas were also wonderful.

Excellent property, management and service staff. Indeed upholds the JW tradition. Attendees were very pleased, from arrival to departure. Conf facilities were ok, we had breakouts, and some roooms were tight due to fitting a group in a room. Overall guest experience was great, the rooms, service were great, On site restaurants were a big hit, also having the Casa Magna next door adds another great property next door.
Overall Rating: 4.4/5

Beautiful property. Conference Services Staff was attentative once I arrived at the property. However, it was different prior to my arrival as there seemed to be a lack of communication with the Conference Services Staff. Food was great; overall meeting experience at hotel was nice.
