Meanwhile, families will be more than happy with the shorter transfer time. But there’s so much more to enjoy than just that. Let’s dive a little deeper to cover all the incredible reasons that we think you’ll love this hotel. Why You’ll Love the Sens Cancun The Sens Cancun finds itself in the gilded company of the Hotel Zone – one of the most popular holiday destinations in Mexico. However, this resort particularly benefits from its geography. It occupies a strip of land between the Caribbean Sea and the gorgeous Nichupte Lagoon. So, there are plenty of opportunities for water babies to go splashing. Plus, adults exploring the dedicated Sian Ka’an section of the resort will also be able to access the facilities at The Pyramid at The Grand Cancun. So you’re basically getting two resorts for the price of one! Meanwhile, because this is a family-friendly resort, your little ones can go wild in the KiddO Zone. This has the makings of a family holiday that no one will forget. Location is Everything As we mentioned, the resort is dotted delicately between two bodies of water.
