On my first trip to Cancun last week, Mar. 1-8, my boyfriend and I stayed at Avalon Bay. The location is great- it's not too far from the city and it's close to all the Hotel Zone bars and restaurants. This place has a beautiful, well-kept garden complete with beautiful peacocks. However, this place is not for those who don't like the outdoors or camping. We actually encountered some geckos on the ceiling in our bungalow (there was gap between the door frame and the wall) but that certainly was quickly overlooked, as they did not bother us. As for service, we were treated with the utmost respect. I would give Avalon Bay 3 stars but the service and attention we received really boosted my rating to a 4. There aren't many rooms, but there is the option of staying in a quiet bungalow or in the tower portion of the hotel. Getting back to the service - I don't think it could have been any better. The manager and also the other members of the staff (in particular the one who assists you with your luggage when you arrive) were incredibly nice and willing to help out with anything from fixing our shower to giving advice. The on-site restaurant is a little expensive and lacks selection but the staff there are very nice as well. Because of the quality of service we received, I would definitely stay there again!
