プラヤカー パレス オール インクルーシブ(Playacar Palace - All Inclusive)

I loved the central location yet still relaxing atmosphere at Playacar Palace. The cafe was a favourite and we enjoyed visiting the Cozumel Palace for the day where same privileges applied. Dining options were good and provided enough opportunity for variety across our week stay. One criticism is the cool temperature of the rooms which persists even when the aircon is turned off - apparently a fan is constantly on the reduce humidity build up in the rooms. The beach, although rough, was preferred by our children (12 and 9) but we ended each day in the pool and spa watching the sun go down- really idyllic! All in all, a great stay.

Pros - close to 5th Ave shopping, close to ferry to Cozumel, good restaurants with good service in them, good pool service, available reservations for dinner, front desk staff good, cleaning crew great Cons - no beach-just pool, not a fan of the process after check-in where they try and pressure you to sit down with them and talk about the resort, credits and setting an appointment for them to sell you on time-share weeks-especially after a long day of travel, morning buffet service is terrible if you want to drink anything other than coffee and then they give it to you once and you never see them again, don't ask for anything else, because you won't get it, check-out process comes with the hard sell to come back again for a promotional offer.

Playacar palace resort property is a pretty small property. It has 4 restaurants and 2 cafes but very limited options for vegetarian. Food was good but menu items were repetitive on multiple days, so after spending 3-4 days you feel like there is nothing new that you can try. Pool closes at 7pm and there is nothing to do in the resort post 7pm. Staff were friendly and quite cooperative. Property is clean. Good point is that it’s location is pretty good and located next to the local market which is one of the good option to explore post 7pm.

This resort was at a convinient location near Playa de Carmen shopping district. It was smaller in size than most of all inclusive resorts but had good staff and service. There were not many options/activities after 7 pm apart from live music in lobby and one 30 min show on weekday nights. Pool area were also closed after 7 pm. But the resort had good ocean views and had courteous staff.

Service and staff were incredible and helpful. Food was amazing, especially the desserts! The restaurants were excellent and far better than many all inclusive i have stayed at. There was never any problem getting into the buffet. The adult only Mexican dinner was the only meal I didn’t like. The rooms were good and beds comfortable. Small balcony. Location was right in playa so easy to go into town and get street food and shopping. Very busy town! Endless streets of places to go. Only downside to this resort is the beach- the hotel is beside the ferry so beach only goes to the one side, no beach chairs or umbrellas on the beach, locals all use as public beach and it is blacked with very little walking area. For the price of this trip and location we were okay with not having the instagram beach although I would have liked a quite spot on beach. The pool area was ok. Need to get up early to get good seats reserved and pool is not that big. I liked that like resort felt smaller- I hate having to walk forever to get to room it was easy to get around quick here. Coffee shop and former cocktails were outstanding.

Staff were kind and friendly! However, when multiple family members got GI problems from food and water the management ignored us and did nothing to make amends. We were also unable to secure a rollaway bed for our entire 6-day stay.

This is a fabulous place to stay. The service, food, cleanliness, beauty and friendliness of the staff is excellent. The people go out of their way to make your stay the best. Many convenient and delicious dining options, Our entire family had the best time… something for everyone!

Pretty hotel, great food and service, but no beach and not much to do otherwise. Plus incredibly noisy since they hold events in the lobby or courtyard each night and it is very hard to sleep.

Friendly, fun and relaxing. The resort is in a great location with easy walking to town. The food was excellent. The buffet had numerous choices each day and the onsite restaurants were great (we were easily able to make reservations after we checked in). There aren’t a ton of amenities but enough to keep us busy and happy during our stay. The staff were exceptional - very friendly and eager to help in every way.
