Playa del Carmen Eco-friendly Holidays

quiet, clean, and good services

The pros: the jungle setting was amazing. The animals were everywhere… every day I had an interaction with monkeys, coatis, and deer. The resort itself is really spread out. The staff was wonderful - shout out to

Great with many activities for all guests. Food was great

My husband, son, & I had an AMAZING stay here for 4-nights! What an amazing hotel full of activities for the kids and lots of restaurant choices for the adults and families. We enjoyed the Hibachi, as we felt that the cook entertained the kids well. The shows were good and tailored to the kids. We like that there is a “family” section separated from the “adult” section. The waterpark was great for the kids! Very clean. The staff were very friendly and professional, always helping the guests. The unlimited coffee, which is open 24hrs was a plus! The unlimited gelato parlour was beyond amazing! We are definitely staying at this hotel/resort again!

I have to say this property is absolutely beautiful. We went Monday - Friday and it wasn't too crowded. The staff was amazing and the rooms were clean, modern, and comfy. Then there is the serious restaurant situation at this resort. You can't get in most places without extreme wait times. The restaurant information on the website is inaccurate. Club members can make reservations so tables sit empty in every restaurant for dinner. The first night we walked into the Sea Olive early and luckily managed to get a table. The food was excellent. The second night we waited 2 hours for a table at Mestizo even though there were many empty tables. The food was excellent but not worth the wait. The third night we arrived late after an excursion and situation was the same - 2 to 2.5 hour waits. So we ate street tacos in the plaza while sitting on the wet ground. There is very limited seating. The fourth night we didn't risk it so, at 5:00 pm, so we sat by the door of Arezzo - which opens at 5:30 pm. Truly excellent food. Recommendations: Either eat brunch or have an early breakfast and a light lunch. (By the beach there are street tacos, burgers, and Meulle Ocho for excellent ceviche.) Then wait by the door of the restaurant you've chosen for dinner at 5:00 pm. My husband got sick and need something easy to eat mid-afternoon. All the restaurants were closed and room service had a 1.5 hour wait. Luckily the shop had crackers and electrolyte solution. We won't be returning.

The food and room accommodations were great

We love the service and staff at this hotel, this is our 2nd time there and both visits were for family weddings. Antonio was great making sure we had drinks at the beach and pool area. The bar tenders at the pool bar work hard but there was always a long line, therefore Antonio took great care of us. The food and drinks have gotten bad, they don't have good selection of liquior and unfortunately we did witnessed a bar tender watering down some of the liquor bottles, which was very disappointing. We only liked one of the dinners which was when they had Mexican theme food, the rest of the nights was the same type of food, same goes with breakfast, everything has gotten very generic. Also they terraza dinning room has no ac, therefore is hot. Our room ac wasn't working properly, and even though they checked it, it never went down passed 24c. The staff was always nice and friendly, but will not be returning there, they do try hard to keep the beach clean from sargassum, it's just not worth the amount of money we spent
