    Perfect spring break getaway!

    Absolutely beautiful property and top notch amenities. Everything is so clean and we'll maintained. You can tell the staff genuinely cares about their quality of service. Jesus, Alberto, and David were especially attentive to all of our needs for dinner, excursions, and our room. We can't wait to come back!

    March Break at Ventus

    El Cid Ventus never disappoints. We have been here five times, and love it just as much everytime. The food is fantastic. Rooms are clean and well kept. The butlers and serving staff go out of their way to please. Our butlers Luis, Hugo, and Noah made our stay very memorable with all the decorations and special attention to our birthdays (my husband and I both turned 50). My only disappointment is the beach (which is no fault of the resort). The seaweed situation makes using the beach unpleasant. However, we knew this ahead of time and so it did not bother us much as we enjoyed the many beautiful pools around the resort. Loved our vacation!

    Always a Pleasure‼️

    The three El Cid resorts in Puerto Morelos are all at one location. The grounds are lovely, the rooms are spacious and the restaurants and dining options are very good. I am a platinum member. We had 2 butlers assigned to us. Cali and Manuel were great and took care of our every need and request. All the staff members are courteous and professional. The beach is not good right now due to the sargassum situation in the Caribbean. The pools, however, are very nice. Only one is considered to be “slightly” heated. I love the gentle breezes and soaring birds above. Looking forward to my next visit.
