i sent my friend to the ROYAL CANCUN over the weekend and he had the best time ever. He loved the hotel it was perfect in service elegance the food was amazing and he was shocked he was in Cancun!

Mexico is great.
I have been to Puerto Vallarta, Ixtapa-Ziuhatanejo, Cabo, Cancun, and Playa Del Carmen. Favorites are Cabo and Playa.

Depends on what you guys want to do: nightlife, relax, sightseeing, diving/snorkeling, etc..

I would recommend Puerto Vallarta or Playa Del Carmen.

PV is great: good sightseeing, history/culture, good nightlife.
But it is on the pacific side, so its further for you and the water is more blue, not white sand/clear blue water.

PDC is fanatastic, you fly into Cancun, but it is south(30-35 miles) on the Mayan Riviera and is NOTHING like Cancun. White sand beaches and clear water. Has nightlife in town and Cozumel is very close, some of best diving/snorkeling in world.

If you are looking inclusive, this place is great:

Yes, Royal Hideaway is pricey. Its like $500 a night, but that does include ALL drinks and food. The only thing you pay for there is if you order a bottle of wine, spa stuff, or water activitites. If you can swing it, I recommend it.

Let me look around and I will post something soon.

Puerto Vallerata is very nice, actually stayed in Neuvo Vallarta. Hotel was cool didn't have to leave for anything, had three pools, zoo, club, six restaurants. Go see the city sites. Cancun is to Americanized IMO, i liked Isla Mujeres tho alot of women there hence the name.
