I have stayed here at least 6 times, every time I’ve come to Playa and it’s always been the best. Not because it’s the newest or fanciest but because it’s location is perfect, just 1/4 mile walk to downtown Playa, right on the beach, never overcrowded, the staff is so friendly, helpful, and always in a good mood and remember my name, give it a try you will love it!

My first Mexican vacation was awesome! The beach location in Playcar Phase 1 was the best part, it felt super safe and private. Most nights the food was great, and lunch had lots of good options. There was some seaweed on the beach, but the Mexican people worked super hard to clean it up fast. If you want a romantic, quiet, or family spot, this place is a winner!

The beach at this hotel was gorgeous. We left a hotel close to Mamitas Beach because of the sargassum and the smell and color. We made our way down to this hotel and it was wonderful. The staff was very attentive, the food was delicious, and the area was very quiet and cozy. Will definitely be back. We typically stay in the busier area of town, but a taxi ride was 10-15 min away and cost $100-200 pesos.

This was a “ buyer beware” situation for me. I have been there a couple times previously with family members who have had a timeshare for 30 years and always stayed in nice quarters. This time I paid for my own one bedroom. I was put into a studio “ cave” with no window. That was NOT what was advertised. Of course, I was unable to get it changed. The ocean view is fantastic. Except for breakfast, the food was mediocre, at best. The servers are wonderfully helpful, the resort staff’s most often refrain to any guest was “ I’m sorry”.

Friendly staff, my king bed room was sufficient. Smelled old, couch had mold. Check in was fine, pool and jacuzzi is not heated. All inclusive saved lots of $, lunch menu really nice dinner not great. Only keg beer. The hotel layout of the pool and beach was nice, mostly timeshare folks older crowd. 10 minutes walk to 5th Ave for shopping and restaurants. Taxi only back to Airport $100! Or ADO bus.

Stayed 11 nights and really enjoyed it. This place is located inside the Playacar gated area. Nothing super special about this place but boy did we feel comfortable and relaxed here. The servers in the restaurant and beach cafe were just awesome. Special shout out to Noe and Samara. These 2 were just a step ahead of the other excellent servers. The cleaning gal for our room couldn’t have been any nicer. The whole staff was always there with smiles to make your stay welcoming. All inclusive was worth it. Breakfast was fresh and good. Dinner changed each night and was very good. Lunch at the beach cafe was just ok. Beds were comfortable. Will definitely check out again if in PDC.

The staff, especially the wait staff in dining room, Julissa, Genaro, Guillermo, Rigoberto, and Noe were professional and very friendly. Great service. Liked food in all inclusive due to quality and menu driven, not buffets(except breakfast, but did have cook to order items as well). Pool loungers were too low to ground, too close together, had to crawl in and out of them. Only had one bar (Pool ) and the liquers and mixers were the worst I have ever had. Only had one beer Dos XX Amber. Not my favorite Mexican beer.

Cuando llegamos a hacer check in nos comentaron que se les había caído el sistema hace un par de días, nuestra estancia ya estaba pagada de antemano pero ellos decían que querían volver a hacer el cargo de la estancia en la tarjeta de crédito para que ellos estuvieran tranquilos y que después harían la devolución, a lo que me negué rotundamente, se les mostró el cargo que ya se había hecho a la tarjeta de crédito y ya nos dejaron de molestar, pero fue muy desagradable la alegata, y otra cuestión que pedimos vista al mar y nos mencionaron que por haber hecho el pago por medio de Expedia no teníamos derecho a tal beneficio lo cual me pareció muy descortés

great place, perfect beach, honest advertising

Was perfect for us - relatively small resort (only 60 suites), big wide beach, after we god a free upgrade - 1bdrm, 2bath, 2 balconies apartment, we loved it. First place was a standard room and it was really depressing. Staff is amazing, they take a really good care of the place, great Spa, everything is clean and convenient and clean. Internet is everywhere and working well. Very good food, but very limited choice - only one option for each meal. Only 5 types of wine are offered - 3 reds and 2 whites and they are cheap. Minuses: - we had an AI option, so probably they are trying to be frugal, but cocktails are terrible mostly (only 1 bartender makes a decent cocktails) - showers are terrible (we tried 3 of them). But I think it's easy to fix. We will definitely come back

Right on the beach - friendly staff

This is a small hotel - very cozy easy to navigate with a great location right on the beach. very friendly staff - the hotel is not new - but it is very well maintained/operated. Excellent value with pretty good food.
