FAQs about hotels in Playa del Carmen







It's Time to Playa!

At the centre of the Mayan Riveria is Playa del Carmen, a playground for hip Europeans and toned-and-tanned Americans. This resort town showcases the renowned white-sand beaches of the Caribbean Coast along the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico.

Playa del Carmen's powdery white sands are nestled between Cancun to its north, Tulum in the south and the island of Cozumel, 20 km east with its fantastic diving in the nearby Great Maya Reef. Awake from an afternoon nap to take a dip, go snorkelling or deep-sea fishing in the beautiful blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Playa is an easy choice as a holiday destination with its range of hotels, many first-class restaurants and beachside nightclubs. Quinta Avienda, also known as 5th Avenue, is the main tourist hub and shopping district. For a more authentic Mexico experience, venture outside of the centre to a local cenote (sinkhole) or Mayan ruins in Tulum.

Cruise ships dock in nearby Cozumel and traffic people to the mainland arriving at the Playa del Carmen Maritime Terminal. If the glimmering Caribbean waters are full, then Booking.com has a huge number of hotels with an outdoor swimming pool by the beach.

    Having spent some time in Cancun, (zona hotelera) before visiting playa del Carmen, I think I would definitely prefer the beaches in Cancun. Playa del Carmen had a lot of seaweed and I found that unpleasant. The sea was alright, the facilities we didn't use because our accommodation was right in front of the beach.

    This is a very bizzy touristic resort. If you want to go clubbing and drinking, this is the place to be. If you want to find the real Mexican vibe, you need to go and search further away to Valladolid and Merida.

    Playa del Carmen has great weather and great food, but it is crazy expensive. It's been a few years since my last trip to Mexico, but beers for 20-30 Pesos are long gone. Now it is more like 65-95. A bad margarita was 110 pesos and a good one was 190 or more. Feeding my family of 3 cost well over $100/day, and that's eating only 2 meals. A two tank dive for a certified diver was $145. A one hour snorkeling tour for 3 was $210. Also, it's full of hawkers and vendors and scams (the tip is often added to your bill at a restaurant and they try to hide that from you). Playa del Carmen had none of feel that Zijhuataneo did in 10 years ago. It's not a community. It's a place to go for tourists (from Mexico, the US, and Europe) to enjoy the beach and weather and for Mexicans to go to extract money from tourists.

    Playa del Carmen had some beautiful areas. But also some very poor areas. The excaret parks are amazing. The Playacar beach was awesome. The people there are awfully pushy and will rip you off. If you aren’t careful. The transportation system is amazing.

    Went into town one afternoon and walked 5th Avenue a few hours. Lots of shops and eat/drink places. Beach in town was unimpressive. Many street vendors and hawkers, not too bothersome. Took a cab each way, about $20 plus tip. Some small, cozy hotels right in the midst of things if you wanted to get the real feel of the town, but we liked the resort.

    Don’t go for the beaches. Lots of seaweed and very narrow. We found 5th Ave to be a typical tourist trap. Overpriced restaurants and souvenirs. You’ll find better food and a cheaper price a block or two away.

    charming , the open roof allowed the occasional rain showers to come into the main part of the hotel. I felt immersed in mature .Posada Mariposa is located in a good central spot on 5th Ave. I could walk in many directions and find what I was looking for within 8 minutes. the beach Mamita was a short walk to the ocean. La Vaca Gaucho just steps away from Mariposa had the best steak dinner . La Vagabundo was so conviene . I could walk steps across the street to get my morning coffee or breakfast . and they open at 7 AM as I’m an early bird .

    The restaurant/ pool staff are amazing - they are professionals but also very genuine and kind in their interactions, a real personal touch. Our last evening at Fuego they set up a specific goodbye table with a sign and had small gifts for our children. Same at the breakfast buffet - a big thank you to Rogelio and Yexiani and Manuel and Ivan. The food at Fuego is exceptional, huge bonus to the hotel itself which is on a beautiful property full of green lush and on the beach with pristine grounds. Rooms are cute and super well cleaned.

    Being an all inclusive, once booked you didn't have to think about anything else. Everything you wanted food or drink was continually available throughout the day. The resort itself was directly on the beach, so access was pretty simple. Lounge chairs were plentiful, so relaxing the day away was a breeze. The buffet had quite the range. We didn't try the fine dining restaurants, as the queues were to long, and it was impossible to book a night anyway.

    This was my favorite place out of 3 different boutique hotels I stayed at in Playa del Carmen. The location is the best - right on the beach and on 38th, the cutest street IMO in Playa with lots of great restaurant options. I stayed in a penthouse suite, so it was amazing to have more space and my own plunge pool. The rooftop pool was also amazing and one of my favorite parts of the stay. I'll definitely be back here!

    This hotel is on 30st in playa del carmen. This is the real Mexico. There are excellent restaurants and shops all with in walking distance, and better as well as cheaper. Than on 5th Ave. You are not harassed to buy things here. It has close access to the highway which makes it easy to get to dive sites. It is very good value for the money.

    Really good location. The beach nearby is great (next to the hilton). Hotel staff (the one that book the room) is friendly and helpful. For example they provided sun umbrellas and sand toys. Our toilet broke and they fixed it the same day. The apartments are spacious and perfect for a group. Playa del Carmen is really lively and you are really close to everything.

    My husband and I went to Playa del Carmen, and it was by far the BEST throughout our trip. We stayed right at the end but we had access to small restaurants which were delicious and the location was the best when we walked la Quinta, which is like a Vegas strip. We also liked the breakfast that was included in our booking and the hotel was so cleaned!
