Sister Dining Access
Moon Palace Cancun is divided into three distinct properties: Moon Palace Cancun (comprising Sunrise and Nizuc sections) and Moon Palace The Grand. Sunrise and Nizuc guests have FULL reciprocal access to each other's restaurants, bars, and amenities — plus access to the Golf Course restaurants. However, Sunrise and Nizuc guests must purchase a day pass ($99 USD adults / $50 USD children) to access The Grand and its exclusive restaurants (including Habibi, Le Château, Circus, JC Steakhouse, Jade, etc.). Resort credits cannot be used for The Grand day pass. Palace Elite Diamond members receive complimentary access to all three sections. Grand guests have free access to Sunrise and Nizuc at all times. Free bus shuttles connect all sections throughout the day. Walking end-to-end takes approximately 20 minutes. All-inclusive dining includes 24-hour room service at The Grand, and specialty restaurants are all included with no upcharge (except premium cuts at JC Steakhouse and Japanese wagyu tableside at Jade). Reservations for specialty à la carte restaurants can only be made after arrival by dialing 0 from the room or using the Palace Resorts app.
Insider Tips
Agra
Frequently cited as the best restaurant at Moon Palace Cancun. Dinner reservations fill fast — book on day of arrival. Try samosas, naan, and the curry selection.
Arrecifes (Carvao)
Also referenced as 'Carvao' in some sources. Dinner only with smart casual dress required. One of the best meat options on the property.
Los Caporales
Breakfast here is a great alternative to the buffet for a sit-down Mexican breakfast experience. Dinner also recommended with smart casual attire.
Palapa Pelicanos
Unique Mediterranean dinner option at Nizuc. Smart casual dress required for evening dining.
Trattoria
Reservations required. Frequently praised for high food quality. Smart casual dress required. Worth the trip to the golf course for dinner.
