Find Historic Hotels in Playacar

"Fantastic property with very nice rooms and attentive staff. Super clean with lots of things to do each day. Walkable to a small market about 5 minutes away and downtown Playa del Carmen about 25 minute walk. "

"Muy buena estancia, solo un detalle, de repente no teníamos luz en la habitación y nos salía agua muy caliente de repente en las regaderas, aún así , todo muy bien, tanto los alimentos como el área de alberca y playas muy bien y muy limpio todo."

"Very friendly and fun staff"

"Amazing hotel grounds, it's like staying in a jungle. Cute agoutis (local rodents) running around. At the time of our visit it had the best beach among the neighbouring resorts. All the other hotels had ugly sandbags everywhere to prevent the sand erosion. The resort has 2 other properties in Playa del Carmen, there are free shuttles all day long, definitely worth a visit, altough the beach is not as nice (many small boats spoil the view). This hotel is in a very secure gated district with restricted access, altough the beach vendors selling crappy sunglasses and vapes somehow can get in... There are some convenience shops a few minutes walk away. If you are into jogging, the main road around the whole gated area is 5.7km/3.5mi long. Rooms are serviced each day with fresh towels, beds are made, mini bar refilled. (Top tip: if you want extra beers, leave a note with a few $) The buffet meals were variable enough during our 10 days, never had the feeling that we're eating the same foods. We booked all inclusive premium so we could swap our buffet dinner to the other 2 restaurants on site. One is Mexican local cuisine, the other is Italian. We had some rainy days, you can get a free umbrella from the reception desk. Another tip: before breakfast reserve some sunbeds by putting down your towels, otherwise they could be gone by the time you want to go to the beach."

"So we arrived to our hotel rather late in the evening and upon arrival they said they had to move us across the street to stay at a different Riu. They sent us to Riu Playacar. The hotel was good however we would have rather stayed at tequila as it was a family reunion . I would suggest going to any of the riu hotels in the area as they were all nice and a very short walk between all of them if you want to explore. "

"We had a very relaxing trip. Which was exactly what we both needed. "

"This is not a five star resort, but a five star value. We have stayed at Iberostar properties more than 10 times and they never disappoint. Very good food,.good drinks, great service, friendly atmosphere and at this property an amazing landscape. Plus the best beach anywhere. We will return. One caveat. BD Experience, our shutt service from the airport to the resort had no record of our reservation. Staff claimed this was a recurring issue with Expedia. We waited 45 minutes for them to sort this. Not tragic, but a nuisance. "

"Found 2 cockroaches in the room. Food got repetitive at buffet A la cartes are very good Beach is pristine Staff are amazing"

"First resort experience, and it was wondrrful."
