Workers where super friendly
Gelen, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda had multiple options for dining keeping it varied throughout your stay. Drinks were plentiful and varied as well too which made hanging out by the pools, beach, and bars enjoyable. Housekeeping was also prompt and left the room tidy every time you came back from an activity, an excursion outside the resort, or when getting back from breakfast. The resort was also very walkable from your hotel room to the beach, pools, lobby, or the various restaurants. Each day and night different shows, activities, fairs, and parties were hosted. It made every night fun and different when staying at the resort. Overall, I'll definitely be coming back to this resort the next time I'll be going to Playa Del Carmen.

Yericia, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff was friendly and helpful the hotel was in disrepair. I had no hot water in my room and the lights kept going out. Not enough chairs around the pool and the beach. Long waits to get into the restaurants to mediocre food. Very little choice and lots of carbohydrates. Were it not for the friendly staff I would give this place a one out of ten.
