I have stayed at this resort 3 times in the past few years. It is a great property. Location: Huge perk is that you can walk into the heart of Playa del Carmen in 20 minutes! It's a $5 taxi that takes 5 mins if you prefer. Amazing location, couldn't be better! Beach: About a 10minute walk if you stay... More

We stayed at the Sandos Playacar for a wedding from Feb 8-15. We arrived and were checked in easily. We were guided to our room and advised the bellhop would be there in five minutes with our luggage. He was about half an hour in getting there - said he was running on Mexican time :). ROOM: Our room was... More

Thought to post a review due to the resort changes. Our 10th stay pretty much says it all @ Sandos Playacar January 22-29th. Was in an +21 Riviera Master Suite in the 9000 buildings , just one of the changes. With all new lounge/pool chairs. The main other change was a new roped off beach section (north side) for +21...

Ok I guess I didnt quite understand the situation but now having been there I get it. First off, Playacar is like a separate town from Playa del Carmen. Playacar is a whole giant gated community next to PDC. It is not a walk you would want to do, so getting to PDC town will involve a rental car or... More

I have been meaning to write a review since we came here for one week in Oct. This was by far the finest chain that I have stayed at and I have stayed at about 20 resorts. This is the perfect size reosrt. THe rooms are clean, the food is good, the drinks were fab, and we were just overall... More

Excellent location at the end of Playacar close to the jungle.Nice resort with all facilities inside (pool, restairants, activities, animation, cash dispenser). Enough room for everyone no rush for chairs around the pool or at the beach. Friendly staff. We had a select room chosen for its location beachfront and renewed room. Nothing really exciting about the room itself (no... More

just got back from a five night stay on February 6, 2012. We stayed at the ocean front property and upgraded to the royal club. The ocean front was well worth the extra .The grounds were excellent, spotless! Housekeeping was superb. All of the staff was cheerful, worked hard and very pleasant to the guests. Beach was awesome and able... More

We arrived in Sandos Playacar on Tuesday, Jan. 23, 2012. We were wonderfully greeted by the Doorman and Milton, who is in charge of the Royal Elite Club. We sat down and had a drink while we were checking in the lovely atmosphere of the Royal Elite Club. Milton, himself, made sure all of our requests were taken care of... More

Just back from a 5 day stay at the Sandos Playacar. Overall the resort was decent. The beach was great, I loved that this property was at the end of Playacar resorts and you can walk away from all the other resorts. The food was decent, the room was decent (Rivera section) but the beds are very firm! The spa... More
