Book spa resorts in Playacar, Playa del Carmen from CA $376

"Not a lot to do on resort. Limited food options and restaurants closed certain days. Drinks are mediocre at best, bottom shelf liquor. Staff was friendly. "

"Overall Riu Yucatan was good. This was our first all inclusive resort and the staff was great. This resort was not horrible but I definitely think it's fair to know what you're getting into. I can say the resort rooms are a little older which was okay but they occasionally smelled like sewage (we had 4 different rooms) and also a couple of times while at the pool, we caught that same smell. A few of their public restrooms were clogged a few different days so maybe they were just having plumbing issues at the time we were there. The power went out for about 6 hours one of the days of our stay. There was no entertainment at our resort we had to walk down to the Riu Tequila a couple the nights to participate in whatever the other resort had going on. The resort gets real quiet after 9pm. The food was mid and the restaurants open times are very scheduled. Having more authentic Mexican food would have been nice. Lastly, if you want a chair on the beach or by the pool you best be up around 730/8am to get one. Anytime after 930am they were completely taken (pool and beach chairs) which sucks because some like to sleep in on their vacation. I would like to try anothet RIU when returning just not this one.

"This is by far one of my favourite resorts. Food was great. Staff are amazing. We had a wonderful room. The only thing that is lacking are umbrellas on the beach. It makes it really hard to find shade on a very hot day. "

"Our ground floor room opened up to pool area which was relatively quiet, with a poolside cocktail bar and daily lunch served at the small restaurant. The hotel was very comfortable, with walkways through the jungle to the beach with many small mammals and lizards along the way. We loved the sustainability of the complex (no plastic bottles, straws etc) and excellent restaurants. The staff were super friendly and helpful, especially the Guest Experience team of Melisa, Zyanya, Mar & Maria who helped with excursions and restaurants. They also arranged a surprise cake to celebrate our anniversary, which was very nice. Overall, an excellent relaxing place, but does need some renovation during the offseason. "

"We come for the beach, and its great here: white sand, always could get a beach lounger. Workers cleaned what the sea spits out every morning."
