After looking for a long time for a hotel in Playa del Carmen for our 10 days holiday, we booked at Magic Blue after the good rewiews at Trip Advisor. And it was even better than we expected. A nice oase in the middle of the town, just two blocks from the beach and one block from 5 avenue. We... More

The place is very nice. The rooms are spacious, elegant details. About the noise, honestly it wasn´t impossible and my couple who is very cranky with these kind of topics, didn´t complaint. I am sorry for the last critic but it didn´t work that way with me: I stayed from saturday april 9 to monday 11, and no complaints about... More

I am deeply conflicted in writing a review for the Magic Blue Boutique Hotel in Playa del Carmen Mexico. Subjectively, this is a very quaint hotel with nice amenities and a helpful, smiling staff—I wish for them to succeed and thrive. Objectively—the proper approach for any Trip Advisor review (in my opinion)—I have to admit that I probably won’t return... More

The location is perfect, the courtyard and pool are very beautiful, but not much else on the positive side. The in-room ac unit didnt work properly. This was reported after our first night stay. The next night it worked a little better after someone looked at it. Very little water presure and the water didnt seem to stay hot for... More

We wanted to catch some sun for a week in this grey, boring Dutch winter and this was worth the trip! Perfect location, very close to the white beach and busy center. The rooms are very clean, spaceous, practical, great shower! This hotel is value for money for sure! The staff is very friendly though not everyone speaks English that... More

Magic Blue is like a slice of paradise. Each time we entered the resort, day or night, I literally sighed... it's calm and lush; a nice retreat from all of the activity and hustle of Playa. The location is good; steps away from restaurants, clubs, and 3 blocks from the beach. However, the drawback of the location is the night-time... More

This little gem is an older hotel that has been completely refurbished and updated. With land so expensive in Playa, it is rare to find a large inner courtyard with a nice pool and bar surrounded by rooms. This is my fifth winter in the Yucatan and I move around a lot, but this is only the second hotel I... More

Upon our arrival we were given a room according to our previous requests when booking the our trip. The room was very clean, lost of space, could be better furnished but overall it was ok. We had a problem with the shower which we reported to the front desk, they immediately sent someone to install a new shower!! The staff... More
