    vertical image of a bali bed cocoon at Haven Riviera Cancun

    Can you reserve a Bali Bed?

    The Bali Beds around the pools are first come first serve. BUT there were so many beds available, that I saw some beds that were EMPTY! I did not see guests heading out first thing in the morning to place their towel and bag on a Bali Bed as you may at other resorts. There was such a sense of calm relaxation at the resort, there was never a sense of urgency that you were going to miss out on an amenity because you were not first to arrive. 

     

    Will the staff bring your food and drinks to your Bali Bed?

    As you can see from my photo, YES the staff will take care of their guests by bringing food, snacks and drinks to your Bali bed. Menus are brought around and you are able to place your order. Pictured is crudite with dip, homemade chips and fresh pico along with salmon tacos. Ask for any drink, cocktail, frozen beverage, french fries, hamburgers, guacamole....the staff will bring it to your Bali bed. While tips are not required, being from the service industry, I know that tips are always appreciated. While I wouldn't necessarily tip for each drink, I would give a bigger tip to the server before I left the Bali bed for taking good care of us.

    Haven Riviera Cancun swim up bar

    Does Haven Riviera Cancun have a swim up bar?

    Haven Riviera Resort and Spa offers 2 different swim up bars for their guest to sip and savor cocktails while taking a dip in the pool. Docks Pool Bar is in front of the main building and has spectacular views of the ocean. Swim up and have a mixologist shake and stir up your favorite mixed drink, frozen cocktail or pour you a local favorite. I loved the side of the bar that was closest to the building because there was a bit more shade on that side. The ocean side of the pool bar had jetted seats for two for you to lay back and relax while sipping.

    Does the staff of Haven Riviera Cancun speak English?

    Every staff member that we had interaction with at Haven Riviera Cancun did have conversational English skills. Bonus for YOU if you speak Spanish but communication was not an issue. There were a few instances where things got 'lost in translation' but over all we were able to interact with the staff. I was able to get by with my one year of high school Spanish.

    Do you tip at Haven Riviera Cancun?

    While tipping is not required at Haven Riviera Cancun, I did tip when we were there. I took about $50 in singles and $5 to give for excellent service and employees who would go above and beyond. We gave the waiter at the restaurants $5, the bartender a dollar or two for each drink as well as the pool wait staff. With my background in the service industry I know that tips are always appreciated. It is up to you if and how much you want to tip.
