Went to Rio Secreto, underground river, cave. The cave and hike swim through it was awesome, our guide was very knowledgeable, and lunch at the end was very good.
Tips: The Rio Secreto was tone of the best things we have done in the Mayan Riviera,. Only problem one tour member couldn't swim, but was told the water would only be waist deep. One stretch was over 7 foot deep. Travelers should be aware that water levels can fluctuate.

Grand Palladium White Sands Resort ReviewKelly G., East Peoria, Illinois
May 31, 2012
Resort Overall :
Wonderful resort with a great staff! This is our fourth time at the same resort - it is so large that we never feel like it is repetitive! We were celebrating our belated honeymoon, the room was decorated with rose petals and a bottle of champagne when we arrived. Also, later in the week, they delivered another bottle of champagne and a plate of chocolate covered strawberries - yum! The special touches were really amazing!
Room :
We stain the Royal section in a suite. It was great to have a separate living room with a TV so that I wasn't bothering my husband if he wanted to sleep in or take a nap while I wanted to watch TV or read.
Pools :
Amazing! There are so many pools to choose from. We loved the large pools with swim-up bars. The adult pool on the Colonial side of the resort was a little to quite for our tastes
Beach :
Absolutely beautiful! There were a few storms while we were there which caused extra seaweed to wash ashore. But, other than that, the beach was beautiful. Lots of rock and coral in the ocean, so it is necessary to watch where a person is walking or swimming.
Resort Activities :
One day while it rained, we plablackjack and my husband won a bottle of tequila! The Spas was also gorgeous.
Restaurants and Bars :
Since we stain the Royal section, we were able to make reservations for dinner each night which allowed us to bypthe waiting line. The food was very good and plentiful. If there wasn't something that wasn't to our liking, we just tried something else. There are bars everywhere!
Nightlife :
We enjothe nightly shows and the Sunset disco. Since the sun seemed to drain us during the day, we were normally not out past midnight.
Tips: This is an amazing resort. We highly recommend the Royal Suites Adults only section. The cost isn't that much more, and the extra perks are worth it - restaurant reservations, access to golf carts to take us around this large resort, private restaurant, special pool, top-shelf drinks, etc...

Resort Overall :
Room :
Stain a suite and the room was absolutely beautiful! Loved it.
Pools :
Gorgeous huge pools with tons of room
Beach :
 Beach was nice but nicer in some sections than others. Some sections had a lot of rocks so people tended to congregate in a select few areas which made it crowded.
Resort Activities :
Wonderful activity team.
Restaurants and Bars :
Great food selection and service!
Nightlife :
Didn't participate in too much nightlife.
Excursions :
Did our own thing.
