Cancun is not very close to the Strip, but it's surprisingly convenient for its far location. Chipotle, Food4Less, and other popular diners/cafes are located within walking distance. \n\nI have roomed here almost every time I visit Vegas. The rooms are extremely well-kept, with earthy furnishings and modern accents... I wouldn't call it anything like home, but why else am I on vacation? I don't want to feel as though I'm home!\n\nI recall the pool was quite roomy; when I used to swim often, I loved that it wasn't a kiddie pool I could swim across in six seconds or so. The slide is definitely appropriate for older children, though. \n\nThe \"adults only\" gameroom is open to children as long as they look somewhat responsible... I know I don't really pass for 18+ and neither does my friend, yet we always manage to play several rounds of pool. Nobody ever really checks.\n\nDo try snagging the penthouse. It feels, at times, more luxurious than home.
