Oleo Cancun Playa | Cancun, Mexico | Virgin Atlantic Holidays

Cancun, Mexico

4 stars

The sculptural ice-white architecture and matching monochrome interiors of Óleo Cancún Playa give it a calmness that’s a far cry from the buzz and colour of your setting — right at the start of the famously vibrant Cancún Hotel Zone. The dedication to ‘white’ is only really interrupted by flashes of blue — homage to the sea and surf just steps from the hotel. Overlooking the beach, the infinity pool adds a touch more turquoise, with the pool bar’s tropical-inspired cocktails adding their own shots of colour. You’ve got spa treatments, complimentary WiFi, an art workshop, and restaurant menus that take you from Japan to Mexico and Peru, with stops on the way for comfort food, international favourites, and bakery treats.

“Fantastic couples stay”

Sep 20, 2025KatieB5275

We really enjoyed our stay at Oleo. We stayed at 2 other hotels in the hotel zone, and found that our stay at Oleo was the best of the 3. We felt that there was great value for money and that the environment was suited to couples looking for great customer service and overall relaxing environment. We enjoyed the food, particularly at Hakka restaurant and the breakfast buffet and enjoyed the drinks selection. Our Inspira room had an incredible view (although we felt it was worth it for the room, otherwise didn’t see a benefit to the “Inspira” experience unlike other hotels with different classes of rooms). We paid to use the spa area (a shared environment but no one else was there) and found this very peaceful. Josefina provided an exceptional relaxing massage! The beach wasn’t swimable while we were there due to seaweed and rough waves.

“Our holiday here”

Sep 16, 2025Nikola S

Wonderful vacation, we really liked it and highly recommend it, the hotel staff are very helpful and helped with everything we needed, the hotel is clean. We didn't find anything that bothered us here.

“would highly recommend this hotel”

Sep 13, 2025Megan W

Óleo Cancún Playa was everything we hoped for and more. The staff made us feel like family from the moment we arrived, in particular Roberto, Charlie, Enrique, Felipe at the bar, Rambo, Geri, Vanessa, Felipe poolside —always friendly, attentive, and ready to help. Rooms were spotless with breathtaking ocean views, and the food at both the buffet and specialty restaurants was excellent. The beach and pools were clean, relaxing, and never overcrowded. This is the perfect spot if you’re looking for a peaceful, boutique-style resort with top-notch service and gorgeous surroundings. We left completely refreshed and can’t wait to return!
