First and the most important - pleasant and helpful personnel. They all were great! It feels like it's a family run hotel. It has such a vibe which is nice! The hotel is in the proper distance from 5th Ave. and beach. It's very close and far enough to not hear noise. Many small nice restaurants on opposite streets and shops like OXXO, Walmart, etc. Room had a very nice size and the bed was very comfortable. Very good WiFi.

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.

    The beach wasn't swimmable because it had a lot of rocks, a lot of seaweed and the hotel didn't clean it. Go to Cancún, Playa del Carmen is not beautiful. The resort: Yucatan princess was the worst part, as the food served there was horrible. I came home very sad.

    It was an unexpected delight. It's a walkable city close to the beach. It comes alive at night and is so serene to navigate through. The structure of the buildings are gorgeous. I loved also being around the people of Playa Del Carmen; I loved the local feel to it.

    Less crowdy and touristy than Cancun, much more beautiful and practical than Tulum. Stick to the eastern part of the fifth avenue which is much less turisty and has some wonderful local restaurants and brunch places

    Playa Del Carmen is a great place: fancy Fifth Ave with amazing restaurants and beautiful and expensive shoppings but also local and national with small retailers. There is even WalMart!!

    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.

    The property grounds are beautiful with the exception what I mentioned before about the laguna water. There are so many pools on the property which was a big plus because there was never an issue of the pools being over crowded. The villa we had was very nice, upon entering the room there was a bottle of champagne on ice with a fruit platter ,a well stocked mini fridge, a beach bag and coasters as a gift. The outdoor shower was the best amenity. The room was cleaned daily. The massage on the beach was really good too.

    A lovely hotel in beautiful surroundings, very tranquil despite being close to the centre of Playa Del Carmen ( 5th Ave). Loads of bars & restaurants close by with good food. We had half board, the food was delicious with many Mayan specialities & we didn’t have to queue for food unlike many of the much larger hotels with all inclusive deals. The staff were very attentive & friendly & also helped us organise a taxi to the airport within minutes when our prepaid Booking.com arranged transfer didn’t turn up!

    The staff were very nice and while the hotel is downtown Playa del Carmen, it is in a quiet area. It is your basic OYO hotel, clean comfy beds, reception and 24 hour security, daily housekeeping, free drinking water / coffee, hot showers with good water pressure, small fridge and very good internet. The person at reception spoke good English and went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. Good old Mexican hospitality!

Greeted with a warm smile and welcome, followed by a staff member helping us with our bag up three flights of stairs to our top floor room. Pool was perfect, hotel right on the beach and close to everything but far enough away from the club noises, room was extremely comfortable and the views were amazing!

    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!
