Oceanfront hotel - not beach front hotel
The hotel was very clean. The pools were clean and comfortable temperature. The staff was helpful. The room was very large. This hotel is not a beachfront hotel though. This hotel is very much an oceanfront hotel, not any real space for laying on the beach the way that someone normally would.
Samantha, 3-night trip

Hotel was excellent, clean, big enough for our family, my kids had their own room. Full kitchen we were able to cook and have our breakfast in the room, and they have a very nice restaurant, where you can seat by the water

Second time to stay, beautiful view, staff are amazing and helpful, if you like the nightlife this place is the correct one, there nightclubs around the corner and they're amazing, La Quinta Avenida is 2 blocks away. Nothing else to say because the experience was everything.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful place to stay in the heart of the city. Beach and pool area was beautiful. We stayed in a penthouse suite and the rooftop deck was amazing! If I ever come back to Playa Del Carmen, I will stay here again.
Jessica, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Above our expectation
Above our expectations! Very comfortable apartment with all we need for our holiday. Tho only small detail is that the front desk personnel upon our arrival offer us a late check out and the personnel on the check out day didn’t stand for what it was promised. Note: There is no beach, all is gone with high tide.
Ricardo, 1-night trip

This was a lovely hotel by the beach with full kitchens in the rooms and a good gym. Would definitely stay here again.
Justin, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Our stay was ok. The bed was so uncomfortable and extremely hard and very little beding/blankets. Our stay was short, but the owners were attentive and nice. Over all stay was a 8/10.
Nallely, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cozy place
This hotel/condo was cozy and quiet, yet a hop, skip and a jump close to 5th street the highlight of this area. I did not use the pool, with limited sun hitting the two pools, the water was too cold. Although the water is very close to the hotel, it is not a beach shore. The hotel does provide lounge chairs for the 20 by 50 feet of sand by the water.

It was a nice area but not on the beach which was disappointing. Photos do this place very much justice... See through curtains lack of privacy, tv’s do not work and getting a water gallon tank fixed took over 12 hours and 3 times asking.

So close to everything yet it feels so remote. The grounds are green and lush. Wonderful and relaxing.
