Good hotel,
Our room was very fine: 2 bedrooms, 3 toilet/showers, laundryroom with washingmachine, kitchen with microwaveowen, dishwasher, cookingposibilities and refrigerator, livingroom and 2 balconies, bigger with jaguzzi. Everything was new and goodlooking. The american breakfast was a bit dissapointment: fruitplate, a glass of juice, basket of toasts and omelette/scramled eggs/fried eggs with bacon. We spend there 9 days and the omelette came threw our ears at the last days. The pool area and the beach were very large, nice and clean. Some of the staff were very friendly (the older ones), some younger ones were not very helpful. We liked about the food in the snackbar and beach restaurant (salads, pastas, steaks etc.). There were also two tenniscourts which were free of charge, also the equipments. There were only two bigger problems in the hotel. The first one is the location: it´s a bit far from the center (about 4 km). If you look from the map, the hotel seems to be in the end of the 5th avenue. That´s true, but there is no shops or restaurants at all before you have walked about that 4 km towards the city center (which is very nice and full off nice restaurants and shops). The second problem was that there was no restaurant in the hotel area, which would be open after 5 pm, so the only option is to cook yourself in the hotelroom (no foodstores nearby, need a car/taxi) or go for a dinner to the center of Playa del Carmen (4 km). The taxi costs 140-150 pesos (10 €) one way. I would definately recommend the hotel, especially if you have a car with you.
