You can also check www.vacationstogo.com and even TripAdvisor
There are many AI in Cancun and down the coast. It really depends on what your priorities are.
How old are the kids?
Do you want to do anything but stay on the resort? (the main reason for picking an AI is not to go anywhere else)
Are you looking for luxury , mid level or inexpensive? The food quality will correspond to type of AI you pick.

You might also look at Cozumel if you can get flights there. Very small so easily managed with kids.

If your kids are old enough for the kids club probably the Palm since it is billed as their family property. Both look nice!
When you say city are you talking about Cancun or the Hotel Zone? Two very different places. Most tourist stay in the Hotel Zone and eat, shop ect there. You can go into Cancun city proper to the local market by catching a bus from the Hotel Zone. This might be an option if you want to escape the resort for a few hours. But the feature of a luxury AI is to keep you on the property since everything is already paid for.

A friend of mine stayed at Villa del Palmar Cancún all inclusive (north of downtown and away form the hotel district) and they both loved it. They chose to not go anywhere else during the week they stayed.
Google the property and include the word "packages" or possibly "discounts" to see if anyone is offering a better deal than they might, though some part of that will depend on what time of year you are planning to visit (e.g. Christmas - New Year, as well as "Semana Santa" - Easter and spring break are not likely to get you anything more than huge crowds, high prices and aggravation).

Last December the Mrs. and I stayed at the Crown Paradise Club for a week. Decent location, decent food, great staff, nice pools and beach. We would stay again. Check Trip Advisor further. Some mixed reviews but then which resort pleases everyone? If you golf, you can play for only the cart fee at the Iberostar course across the street.

We used to stay in a presidential suite every year at the moon palace (part of palace resorts) and we loved it. I haven't been back in a few years (I think 5-6 years) so I don't know if things have changed but I would def recommend based on past experience. You can also use facilities (pools, restaraunts etc) at the other palace resort props in cancun.

I suggest to get the best price it depends on what hotel you want go to, I usually get the best price through either sky auction or by booking with airfare together.i always get good deals tell me your travel days and ill tell you where to book.
