When it comes to large all-inclusive resorts in Cancun, the Moon Palace has one of the highest profiles. And during a recent stay at The Grand at Moon Palace, I discovered 8 fun and surprising things to do that are far from the usual experiences at a Cancun hotel.
In this Cancun travel video, I share at The Grand at Moon Palace Cancun, the most upscale part of the Moon Palace all-inclusive resort. This Mexico hotel has a bunch of things that you can’t find at most Mexico beach resorts, making it an especially interesting place to stay. I also give an in-person, unfiltered and unscripted tour of my hotel guest room, which features a balcony, large Jacuzzi tub and lovely decor. If you’re looking for an all-inclusive Mexico beach vacation, this video might provide some inspiration.
So let’s take a look at 8 AWESOME THINGS TO DO at The Grand at Moon Palace Resort in Cancun.
#1 is to go bowling! Yes, the Grand has its own bowling alley!
#2 is get wet at the giant Water Park! This is NOT your everyday hotel pool. It’s a giant park with multiple water slides, a lazy river, a ProFlow surfing wave simulator and a wave pool.
#3 is for the kids: ride the bumper cars! The Playroom at the Grand features actual bumper cars as well as neon mini golf and other fun activities.
Habibi is a beautiful Lebanese restaurant at The Grand at Moon Palace Cancun Resort.
#4 is savor the Lebanese cuisine at Habibi. This is the only all-inclusive resort I’ve visited that has a Lebanese restaurant, and it is DELICIOUS. (For another unique Cancun restaurant experience, consider The Grand Journey, a table mapping dinner experience.)
After you’ve eaten, you can do #5: Pop into the speakeasy! Hidden behind a row of inconspicuous bookshelves, The Library is a decidedly cool place to sip a cocktail. It’s not your average hotel bar, by a long shot.
#6 is to work off the calories by heading to the large fitness center and take a seat in front of the gigantic screen for extra motivation to get moving!
#7 is something especially relaxing: Make an appointment at the Awe Spa, a luxuriously large spa that features a juice bar, beauty salon, barber shop, and a gorgeous hydrotherapy facility with a large pool.

#8 is something quite unique: Watch a Bollywood movie right in your guest room! Zeemundo is a network that showcases Bollywood films, dubbed in Spanish.
And speaking of the guest room, you won’t want to miss my video tour of where I stayed (it’s included with the hotel tour and roundup of the 8 great things to do at The Grand at Moon Palace Cancun Resort).
