Visit our site for the full review at TheVacationAdvisors. We think that converting a condo unit in a condo-complex into a 3-bedroom bed and breakfast with a shared kitchen and living space is pretty smart, so we have to give the owner credit for having the smarts and courage to do this. Unfortunately, along with doing this are some small... More

We enjoyed our three week stay very much thanks to our host Roberto who was very hospitable and helpful. The reviews we read before booking were accurate. We enjoyed meeting other guests as well. The room was clean (thanks to Teo) and the bed was very comfortable. It was also safe to leave our passports, etc. The location was also... More

My husband and I stayed for a week at Posada Picalu in Playa Del Carmen in January 2011. We had never been to Mexico before and were very excited. We have done the all inclusive resort thing in the past but did not think it was the thing for us this time around. We were hopeful that we picked right... More

A friend and I have just returned from a short vacation to Playa del Carmen. Playa is a pretty fun place to begin with, but staying at Posada Picalu helped to make our time there truly memorable. Owners Roberto Pino and his wife are absolutely delightful people and exceptional hosts. Their warmth and consideration made us feel a little like... More

Staying at Posada Picalu is like staying at your favorite uncle's house. Roberto, the proprietor, is amazing - very gracious, helpful, and goes out of his way to accommodate all your needs. The breakfasts were delicious and plentiful. There is also a pool, which we took full advantage of. Location is a few blocks away from the main street and... More

My husband and I stayed at Posada Picalu for 5 nights and had a wonderful time with Roberto, the proprietor of the B&B. He truly made us feel welcome, comfortable and at home. Breakfasts were delicious and plentiful and the room was spacious and very very clean. The B&B is in a very safe neighbourhood within walking distance to the... More

I spent there almost one month so you can trust me… Clean, spacious and comfortable rooms, with private bathroom cleaned everyday, ceiling fan and AC. There is a common living room with cable TV and WiFi in all the building, and a swimming pool shared with the rest of the condominium. Located in a great place, just 4 blocks from... More

We have been to the PICALU for 6gg. The posada is very pleasant. The position is good to reach in few minutes: sea, Quinta, commercial centers, in anymore the owner is taken care of us and he has not made us miss nothing. The price is moderate and is a good solution as B&B.
