Playacar Palace is an excellent resort for a getaway with amazing service and comfortable facilities. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, and the activities by the pool were a blast. However, while the beach is beautiful, it is on the smaller side, and the dining options could offer more authentic Mexican cuisine. Overall, I would love to return for another relaxing vacation.

I had an absolutely incredible stay at this hotel, with clean and spacious rooms that offered amazing views of the beach. The staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive, making the experience unforgettable. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the vibrant Fifth Avenue with fantastic dining options. However, while the dining experience was generally good, I felt that a bit more variety in the food selections would have been appreciated. Overall, this hotel is a great value for money and perfect for families seeking a joyful experience in a beautiful setting.

I had an incredible stay at Playacar Palace! The resort is beautifully renovated with a lovely intimate atmosphere. The staff went out of their way to make our experience enjoyable. The dining options were excellent, though I think there could be a bit more variety. The beach was stunning and we had a blast exploring Playa del Carmen. The only downsides were a few cleanliness issues in certain areas and one incident with the water being turned off without notice.

We had an amazing stay at Playacar Palace! The resort is beautifully maintained, and every detail was looked after by the staff. The new restaurant is a must-try, serving incredible Yucatan dishes. While the food was generally good, it wasn't always exceptional. Overall, the service was stellar, though it can get busy. The location is perfect, but if you're seeking a bit more vibrancy or variety in dining, that might be a downside.
