<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/aqua_margs.jpg" class="top"> We have a bit of a tumultuous background with Mexico similar to LiLos journey to non-slutdom and sobriety but we recently gave Cancún another shot at love. Although all the usual suspects are still there (and some <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/6/22/142452/365/hotels/The_Real_World_Cancun_s_Bi_Level_Suite_Now_Open_for_Regular_Guests">Real World leftovers</a>), we discovered a civilized side of Cancún beyond the conveniences of the big-box hotels and silky blond beaches that few tourists ever see especially for those who venture the 80-mile stretch south of Cancún, or the Riviera Maya. In some rare cases, culture and calm (and even a bit of continuing education) can even be found amongst the partiers paradise of the Zona Hotelera. Sometimes it simply helps to know where to look.

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/26601/AQUA.jpg" class="top"> When we stayed at <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+Aqua+Cancun/local/1108">AQUA Cancun</a> right after its reopening last year (it was formerly Fiesta Americana Grand Aqua), we scored an Aqua Club room upgrade on the fifth floor. Our entertaining ready room came equipped with a private oceanfront patio, living room, a freestanding circular Jacuzzi tub, a spa-worthy bathroom with locally made soaps, and access to the (drum roll, please!) Club Lounge. Private check-in and dedicated concierge made us feel more Tori Spelling than Joe Average tourist. An endless stream of adult beverages, five food and beverage servings throughout the day, including continental breakfast and a lovely hors doeuvre spread timed right around sunset/happy hour kept us happily sated.

That shortly went up to $500+ a night during the boomtime of the hospitality and travel industry. But like all hotels all over the world, GPH needs to fill its rooms. Which is perhaps why the hotel is offering guests a second-night half-off. <blockquote>Now through April 30, 2009 for every night a guest spends at the Hotel, at its best available rates, they will receive the next night at 50% off.</blockquote> Rates start around $330 a night.

So what if weather.com says it's going to be a sweltering 90 degrees in Cancun today? If you were staying at the Aqua Cancun, you'd be lolling in one of their eight pools, cocktail in hand, thinking about your pending massage.
