Best Resorts in Playa del Carmen

"The property has speciality restaurants. The two we tried are Wok (Oriental) and Japanese restaurant. The food was terrible and aweful. To compare, the food in general buffet is far better than these speciality restaurants."

"Great place for families, kids loved it. This is my second time staying at the hotel and I’ll choose it again. "

"It was OK. Lack of engagement, evening entertainment, and activities team which would have encouraged guests to better socialize and enjoy their time away. (Compared to many past stays at other resorts like RIU.) Pools are fine but somewhat dated and would benefit from resurfacing. Service staff in restaurants appeared to simply be putting in their time. They would hear you but not listen to you often resulting in wrong orders being served. (Not a language barrier - simply rushing and not hearing.) Made us feel many did not actually enjoy their employment at this resort. "

"This property is absolutely amazing. This is by far the best food I’ve ever had at an all inclusive. The beach area at the resort is extremely clean and beautiful. The rooms are gorgeous. The access to their parks is a nice touch, but the resort itself is so nice you honestly don’t even need to leave. "

"Excellent "

"We stayed for a few days in February and could not have been happier with the entire experience, from check-in to our unfortunate back-to-reality departure! We loved the pool area and especially loved the location of the hotel in downtown Playa. We did hear music on the weekend evenings but with earplugs or our little handheld sound machine, we were absolutely fine. We will stay here again!"

"Great location. "

"A little bit diversity will be better."

"Traveled here in April 2026 and it was sooooo nice. The upkeep on the property is amazing, my husband and I had a great time, good music, staff was beyond amazing, everything was close by, beaches were kept clean and the pool, the food was amazing, I will definitely go back here again!"
