“Friendly staff, Hotel is like a rundown motel 6, food not so great”

The website for this hotel shows a movie of the grounds and their beach and the movie is VERY misleading to what the hotel is. We are very low maintance travelers and used to Dennys and low budget motels but we thought we were getting a resort style hotel with this. The room was small, bed was hard (and pillows too, not sure how that worked) The food was not good at all, I think we had only two meals the whole trip at the hotel where we both were satisfied after eating. Each day the menu was the same (which was odd since their theme changed everyday) except rice, beans, chips and the fake cheese that comes from a can. The only fruit you will see is watermelon and cantelope. breakfast was dry HARD pancakes and dry toast, go with the yogurt or omelette. The 24hr snack bar was chips, cheese and some different things here and there, meaning dry grilled cheese, or old hot dogs etc. Now the booze was really disappointing. The lobby bar has a huge shelf booze. With the all inclusive you get to choose from 1/4 of that shelf (YES, it sucked) and of course the booze included with all inclusive was the cheap off brand booze that you would never buy yourself. The rest of the shelf (3/4) was everything you would have wanted, absolute, good tequila, gray goose etc BUT you had to pay for it, defeats the purpose of all inclusive. Overall the location was good, staff were friendly. Beach was 7 blocks away, food was terrible. would choose a different hotel next time

Area recommendations
Stay at the north end of 5th avenue, quieter, less party town area

“Real Playa del Carmen....It aint what it used to be....”

3 years ago my girlfriend and I stayed here and although it wasn't terribly impressive, it was in a good location, the people were friendly and it was good enough and we enjoyed our stay. Fast forward 3 years to last week when we (tried) to stay there again, but found that pretty much everything except the location was different. The bedspread had stains on it, the bed was sagging, the air conditioner had screw's holding the broken vent on it and it barely worked. The room seemed dirty and well used and it was hard to relax. We stayed there one night, had breakfast the next morning and when we saw that they were making french toast out of the HAMBURGER BUNS from the night before, we knew it was time to leave. The staff was unattentive, not real friendly and seemed a litte spaced out. We immediately upgraded to the Real Porto - thier sister hotel which is right on the beach and very nice. We upgraded for cheap (the website wouldn't let me say how much) and it was totally worth it. I wouldn't stay at the Real Playa del Carmen if they paid me (well, maybe I would). The staff, location, food and room were what we were expecting from our trip. It was my 3rd time to Mexico and every time I come home I'm sick. I don't know what it is but I'm going to steer clear of Mexico for a few years, but if I go back, I'd definatley stay at the Porto again.

“Great, but wish it was on the beach”

Great room, great location near the end of the main tourist road, friendly staff, clean. It was also nice to have a piece of the beach to call our own. The only 'down side' is having to take a shuttle or walk down the 6 blocks or so to the beach. Wonderful. Kids could play ping pong, pool, swim, etc.

Area recommendations
5th ave was wonderful for shopping, wandering, eating, and enjoying.
Getting there
It is helpful to know bits of spanish but most all of the people understand English and accept US dollars. It is best if you exchange into Pesos so you can be sure not to be overcharged by a poor exchange rate.
Outdoors or beach
The sand in Playa del Carmen is so fine, that it is almost like chalk. Soft and smooth. Light colored.

“Good location”

Not the nicest hotel but great location...at the quieter end of the main drag. Within walking distance to everything.

Getting around
We rented a car but it was not necessary. Renting a taxi for the day is cheaper.
Must see
Yal-ku lagoon near Akumal Bay is a great snorkeling spot.

“Would definitely go back!”

Had a very pleasant 5-day stay at the hotel. First time I stay at an all-inclusive hotel and it was well worth it. The food was good, the place is convienently located at the end of 5th (where all the action takes place) and is about 4 blocks away from the beach. The only downside to the beachclub is that it is located at the end of the beach and that part of the beach is not recommended for purposes of swimming since it is next to a boat dock and pier. In addition, the beach club and hotel (with all inclusive) has cheap keg beer (not bottled beer). So my girlfriend and I simply stayed at Mamitas Beach (which is actually a closer walk from the hotel) and either paid for chairs/beers at the beach club, or took our own beer to the beach. If you are into beaches, the very best beaches are in the Tulum area, go and see these Mayan ruins and take your swim trunks since the area has beautiful beaches. A little better than Playa del Carmen beaches, and a lot better than Cancun beaches.

Area recommendations
Playa del Carmen is small, so make sure you around the area. Definitely go to Xcaret (hotel can arrange you a package at face value price) and Tulum (you can take a cab or public transportation, i.e., shared vans). Regardless of your age, the show at Coco Bongo is a must see.

“FUn in the sun”

This hotel was located right on Ave 5 where all the shops and restaurants are located...a short walk brings you to all the action. Staff was friendly. Food was OK but there are so many choices down the street that lunch and dinner were better elsewhere. Breakfast was varied enough to satisfy. A shuttle will take you to the beach club but it really is not that far of a walk to the beach.

“I'll be back next spring”

If you want to spend thousands on a room to crash in then get one. If you want good food and a nice room to rest in while you're out sightseeing and doing all the activities you care to do then Real Playa del Carmen is the place to go. It's quaint, quiet and very relaxing. The staff is great and didn't leave me wanting for anything. I'll be back in May or June.
