A couple things…just get the breakfast package, there are far too many amazing places to eat on 5th street to eat the food at the hotel. Secondly if you want to be able to go to bed early also not an ideal place to stay, there are a couple bars surrounding the hotel and they are really loud usually until 1-2am. Other than that, amazing place, very clean rooms and the rooftop bar and pool is awesome!

Good people, meh resort

The people that worked there are extremely helpful and nice. the place though is pretty meh. The food was just average, the pool/sundeck was WAY too small and inconvenient, and as an all-inclusive it felt annoying to have to sign for every meal/drink/snack. Not a bad place but pretty middling when compared to other all-inclusive resorts I've stayed at.

Property has some internal rules that are only presented to you when you checkin and either you accept them or you don’t get a room, if you don’t agree then you have no options (no where shown upon booking), internet was intermittent, phone on the room was not working, extra pillow and blanket dirty and smelly.

Overall, it good place to stay. I wanted more active resort hotel, not aware that it is essentially a hoyel with a couple restaurants. I wouldnt say it is the typical large all inclusive resorts. I did enjoy the food. Choices were limited but delicious. Staff was great. Walking distance to beach. This place has sister resorts in which you need to play extra for access and/or transit to. If you just want to chill and do nothng, this is place for you.

Staff was top tier! Did not encounter a single staff remember who was not going above and beyond. My only complaint is the noise at night from the place across the street- I understand this is a party town but I also like to get some sleep while on vacation. Ask for a room on a different street - food was good, did not LOVE the Italian. This was our 5th trip to playa but first all inclusive. We decided while it was nice to have all inclusive that we would much rather venture to the surrounding areas for food/drinks because there are SO many options. Would stay again just not all inclusive, would need to make sure I had a quieter room though. Also nice to visit the sister hotel in playacar for a great beach day.
