Mayan ruins on the Cancun Hotel Strip! Muy authentico!…read more This place is pretty sweet. It's a cool building, with cool architecture, but not too terribly practical. You have to get all the way to the top floor to see the exhibits. At the ticket booth reads a sign, "The galleries are hot. We have no air condition. No refunds." They were right. The gallery is up on the third floor. No, the elevator didn't work. Instead they had a corkscrew ramp that sent me going round and round and round in circles to get to the hot gallery at the top. The gallery was pretty small, with some pretty cool artifacts, and a human skull, with some awesome carvings, and some jewelry. All Mayan. So cool. There's also a temporary exhibit that had portraits of working Mexicans posing in the photos with the tools of their trades. Outside, is a super fun nature walk along an improved trail that takes you past several small ruins (one with painting still in the interior). The path terminates at a half pyramid that you can walk around, but not up. There's a small bookstore that seems lacking at the exit. It's a fun, fairly inexpensive way to get some art and culture on your trip to Cancun, to get to see ruins without having to go way out into the jungle is pretty special.

This is in the hotel zone. Our 7 year old kid enjoyed walking through the outdoor part through the jungle (searching for iguanas). It was nice and shady and peaceful. The indoor part was fine. This is a great cheap and easy activity to do after lunch when it's super hot and bright, to stay out of the sun! We could have taken a bus for 12 pesos or $1 USD from our hotel, but we didn't realize.

The great thing about this "museum" is you can see it diving, obviously, but also snorkeling, and even in those boats with the underwater view decks. You cannot beat this dive experience, because you can get so unclose and personal, but if diving isn't your thing, it still worth it to go snorkel or on a boat tour. i know this isn't your typical shipwreck, as I'm usually not a fan of "intentionally sunken" wrecks to dive at, but this was still so awesome even though it was intentionally put there. I mean these statues would be cool in a building, but not THAT awesome, however, putting them underwater in the crystal clear, turquoise waters of Mexico's Caribbean, there's a magical eeriness about it that makes is one-of-a-kind. I loved all the fish swimming in between all the statues. It's an easy dive, not too deep, with lots of swimming room.

The shadee path is well kept and will lead you to multiple ruins, until you reach the pyramid at the end. Even though the museum was crowded, the ruins were not, which made for great photo ops. I definitely recommend if you have a few hours to spare!

This Mayan archaeological site is interesting intrinsically as well as for the fact that it was one of the last places inhabited by the Mayans before the arrival of the Spaniards. On the day we visited, there was hardly anybody else here, so chances are that you will have a very peaceful visit, should you decide to come. You can see the Museum and the grounds in about an hour.

Checkin was smooth and easy, bus ride great, a 5 minute walk to the boat to an unforgettable evening. It is a tight fit as we all sat closely around the table in the middle of the boat. Food was served, conversations and entertainment flowed all night. Between dinner and dessert we were up dancing. After dinner, we got off the boat for a 10 minute restroom break before continuing down the river. Very well organized!!! It was a party all night long! Food was incredible! Service and hosts were top notch. Organization of the evening made it go by so fast. About 3 hours were spent on the boat eating, chatting, dancing or playing games. Would do this again in a heartbeat. Wonderful evening!!!

What a fun venue!…read more Love the fact that they're offering family entertainment. Wish it were every night, not just the weekends. After all, every night is the weekend when you're on vacation... The venue itself has a bar area upon entry and they're offering up bags of popcorn as well. The seating is quite comfortable and being a smaller venue, there's not a bad seat in the house.

You gotta dive thirty feet underwater to see any of it, and all the art is all wet! Wanna get a photo of the sculptures? There's a good chance there's a fish that's gonna photobomb your shot. This place is hilarious! The art is poignant, creative, and fun. It's all lifesized sculptures of things like cars, people, and a bar scene. There's coral growing on the stuff, and fish all around. The sand is a light white, and the water is so blue and warm, it's a great place to check out some art. It's such a cool perspective to be able to circle around and see the art from all angles, even above or below with your ability to swim all around it. It's really fun to see the art this way. You don't have to dive with the museum itself. You can choose any of the dive companies, since there's no private property out in the sea, and anyone who knows how to operate a boat can take you out here. Diving was great, and visibility was par enough to be able to clearly see all the stuff underwater. The waters were choppy, which made for some currents pushing and pulling underwater, but it's a shallow dive and if anything goes wrong you can always just ascend to the surface from such shallow depths with much worry about anything going wrong. In two dives, we were able to take in about a dozen different sculpture displays. They're all near each other.
