Carretera Cancún-Tulum Km. 36.5, Fracc. Tamul, 77500 Cancún, Quintana Roo, Mexico · Family-Friendly · 3 Resort Sections · Beach, Lake Terrace & Ballroom Venues
Resort Overview
Moon Palace Cancun is a sprawling, family-friendly all-inclusive resort just 10 minutes from Cancun International Airport, split across three distinct sections — Sunrise, Nizuc, and the more exclusive Grand — each with its own pools, restaurants, and atmosphere while sharing full access to the resort's amenities. Couples get real range here: 16 restaurants, multiple bars, 9 lagoon-style pools, a FlowRider surf simulator, a water park, a Jack Nicklaus Signature 27-hole golf course, and a 39-room spa. Wedding venues span an unlimited-capacity beach ceremony, the 300-guest Lake Terrace, the more intimate Meditation Garden, and indoor ballrooms — giving Moon Palace real range from an intimate elopement to a large-scale reception without leaving the property.
