1. Nidara Suites

Luis Donaldo Colosio, 1.8 km from Punta Esmeralda Beach

"La habitación tiene todo lo necesario y más! Ya ni me dio tiempo de usar la terraza ni la tele jaja. Tuve que planchar ropa porque se me arrugó en la maleta y al abrir el clóset encontré una plancha y hasta un burro, 10/10. Mi cama era enooorme y el cuarto tenía cortinas blackout así que dormí súper bien. La cocineta fue muy útil, había platos y vasos y pude guardar lo que me sobraba de comida en el refri. Me encantó que está a menos de una cuadra de la 5ta avenida, pero en una zona...

Everything is within walking distance, including restaurants, coffee shops, and the lively Fifth Avenue.The apartment itself was very clean, modern, and extremely well maintained. I would definitely recommend staying here.One thing to keep in mind is to request a room at the back of the building. The rooms facing the front, across from Karaoke 44, are extremely noisy until around 2:00 a.m., making it difficult to get a good...

"Perfect location and service, but rooms need an update. I had a mixed experience during my recent stay. On the positive side, the location is unbeatable, the staff were wonderful, and the breakfast was truly fantastic. However, while the hotel is marketed as 'vintage,' the room furnishings felt more outdated and musty than charming. Practical issues, like drawers that didn't work, made the stay less comfortable. It’s a great spot if you prioritize service and location, but the rooms could use...

Top Punta Esmeralda Beach Hotel Reviews

Devossion By Live Aqua Playa del Carmen All Inclusive - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"The property is amazing and very well maintained. I thoroughly enjoyed everything about my stay. The staff was very friendly, welcoming and accommodating."

Ocean Riviera Paradise All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"Fantastic staff and pool, but some areas need attention: All of the staff here were absolutely amazing and incredibly helpful throughout our stay! The buffet was fantastic, and we loved the beautiful swimming pool right on the beach. However, there are a few areas that need improvement. The public spaces require more frequent cleaning, and our room was in need of some minor maintenance. Additionally, if you stay on the top floor, the balcony desperately needs a cover or awning; when it rains, the entire balcony floods, making it impossible to dry your clothes. Finally, while the buffet was excellent, the à la carte restaurants did not live up to expectations compared to other resorts we have visited in Mexico."

There wasn’t one person we passed that didn’t have a smile in their face! Guillermo at the lobby bar was fantastic! That young man deserves a raise!! Marco at the sports bar was VERY accommodating and an excellent bartender! Boris was so fun and made every day exciting! Alan was a wonderful server and had an excellent personality. They all had a huge part in making our trip so good, they made us feel like family. The beach was beautiful and clean. The food was good.
