Everything you could want in a Mexican beach resor
Everything was working as it should, the a/c was cold the shower was hot, the room was clean and well appointed and the location was fabulous. The Beach and restaurant staff was friendly and accommodating. The Restaurant had great food at reasonable prices. One of the nicest beaches around. I will definitely go back.

Excellent place to stay. Had no complaints. Location was amazing. While near the beach and Quinta Avenida, it was a quiet location and we heard no noise from nearby businesses. Staff was friendly and helpful. Would definitely do again.

Travel disruptions left us needing a room last minute and later at night. Check in was fine and the room was a great end to our chaotic day. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in Playa del Carmen.

This is the hotel we chose to stay after a terrible night at another place. This place was formerly Playa Maya Beach Hotel that we have stayed at before. The rooms do need upgrading which I think they are doing slowly. Bed was ok but somewhat hard. Staff mostly spoke Spanish but food and service was excellent! The chef Victor went out of his way to cook whatever you wanted and it was most excellent. The best is that it is right on the beach and they have very comfortable beach chairs and beds! There are a few stairs to contend with but all in all, I would stay here again! They were installing new refrigerators when we left.

VERY loud
We were not able able to check in until after 5pm, after which point the Luciana reception was gone for the day. Unfortunately at approx 6pm we checked in through the adjacent hotel, and our room vibrated and reverberated because of the adjacent parties and people yelling and partying next door. We were told this was only going to get worse but that there was nothing that could be done or accommated until possibly the next day. The sound was so potent my phone shook off the table.

Double Charged Thievery
Horrible experience! I arrived about 9 PM, and the front desk is operated by two different hotels. The hotel I was staying at did not have a person at the front desk, and I ended up being double charged because the woman who checked me and did not know how the other system worked for the other hotel. It’s been two weeks that I’ve been trying to get this corrected on my AMEX, and the hotel refuses to cooperate. Hotels.com has not been of any help, and I’ve had to go to American Express to file the dispute. Such a waste, find a big hotel that can assist you instead of trying to save a few bucks.
