Yes, it can be rainy but usually only last a few hours or during the night. I was their two years ago during August and it was very nice some days and partial clouds others and rained hard some nights but sunny the next morning. It is their rainy season but still nice.

In the 7 days we were there, it rained 6 with 4 of those days being complete washouts. Now, this probably had to do with the hurricane crossing over Mexico so it may not be the norm. However, it rained so much that any ocean activities were not an option. The water was muddy brown so when we tried snorkling you could barely see the fish. The water is very dirty this time of year. When it wasn't raining, it was extremely humid! Worse than I've ever experienced. I hate to say it, but I wouldn't go this time of year if I were you. We will never go back in August again. Sorry, but I'd hate for you to be as disappointed with the weather as we were.I'm planning to go to the grand mayan in august. i keep hearing the weather is very hot and possibly rainy. we need to travel when my child is out of school is the weather that bad? it will be my first visit to the grand mayan. i see from reviews it's a beautiful resort. thanks for any/all info.

Just came back from a 3 week stay. It is a very beautiful resort. Only owners can have ocean view, so you might get stuck looking at the parking garage. August would be very hot and humid. If you can deal with humidity, might be ok. I personally wouldn't go in August. I would try for Spring break or Christmas vacation.
