Top Playacar Hotel Reviews

Wyndham Garden Playa del Carmen

4/10 Poor

"The staff were rude and unprofessional. The service was okay, management appeared indifferent towards my family. Staff overlooked us at times. The hotel needs an upgrade. The breakfast was okay and minimal. We did enjoy like the location to the beach. "

Allegro Playacar - All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"A small and very well kept resort. I appreciated all of the lush greenery and local wildlife that live in it. The beach and pool are great, and there were always enough loungers in the palm trees on the beach. The staff were constantly cleaning and it showed. The food was great as were the staff. My only real complaint is that the room are so very noisy. We shared a thatched roof with 3 other rooms in our bungalow and could hear everything. And our room building 14) was close to the theatre and I swear that the show was louder in my bed than at the actual theatre. As someone that is early to rise and early to bed I hated this."

Iberostar Waves Tucán - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"resort was beautiful, room was kept clean, staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was great, Beach and pools were beautiful. Beaches had lots of cigaret buts in the sand and found other debris (broken glass/plastic) which was a big concern since we had little children. Other than that it was wonderful."

Playacar Palace All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"We just returned from a wonderful stay at Playacar Palace. Staff, facilities and food was incredible. Location is great - walk to Cozumel ferry with free access to Cozumel Palace hotel - just show your Palace hotel bracelet. Resort credits were very helpful for spa and dolphin swim. Only downside was the lack of beach but everything else made up for it. "

Royal Hideaway Playacar All Inclusive - Adults only

10/10 Excellent

"We just returned from our 4th stay at Royal Hideaway and we had a wonderful 10 days. The property was beautiful and we were very impressed with the large number of staff working each day on the property. Our room was great and our housekeeper was excellent! The staff throughout the complex are warm, friendly and very helpful. The restaurants were delicious and we enjoyed having our favorites again. The beach was beautiful but did have some seaweed. The staff and workers were diligent in removing the seaweed daily with a tractor. We have always enjoyed staying here and look forward to returning again next year."
