I spent two weeks, over Christmas and New Year's in Playa, staying at El Tukan. My very first impression was that it was kind of sparse, but then again I didn't go on holiday to stay in my room. Through the upcoming weeks I was impressed by the efficiency with which the hotel was run, the gorgeously delicious breakfast buffets,... More

El Tukan is located right on the main tourist shopping street. However, you cannot even tell such a busy place was near there. Huge trees shadowed out the streets making it look like you were in a dense tropical rainforest. It included a pool (although it was always freezing, it was very shallow). The breakfast buffet was delicious, and you... More

We stayed in El Tukan for 10 days in November 2011. We chose El Tukan because of the central location and rather good reviews. The location of the hotel is great, but the location of our room was not. We got a room in another building on another street. The room was on the ground floor, facing the side street.... More

The ElTukan isn't worth wasting your valuable vacation time or money to visit poor on a fronts wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy . More

Our original super-cheap hotel cancelled on us due to the impending Hurricane Rina, so we had to find one through the help of Best Day travel, the intermediary on our Expedia trip. It was the nicest of the three that had meal-plan/drink options. We originally planned for just breakfast, but we decided on the "all inclusive" red wristband deal, which... More

I visit Playa Del Carmen often. I have stayed at a variety of hotels and condos in the area. My friends and I were coming from different cities and wanted a cheap all inclusive in the downtown area. We narrowed our choices down to the Tukan and the Real. We decided on the Tukan based on a post from the... More

Nice hotel, rooms are ok, service is pleasant but go only for the breakfast not for the all-inclusive. The breakfast is great, the lunch is ok but dinner isn't. The bar from the all-inclusive restaurant is, comparing to the nice bars and cafes of playa del carmen, not worth a visit. By the way the all-inclusive deal I booked on... More

This is not a 4 or 5 star property, and if you are expecting to be pampered and like luxurious all-inclusive resorts, go elsewhere. This is very clean, basic accomodation with A/C. The location is fabulous, and you can't do much better for the price. This is one of the first "large" (in Playa terms) hotels to be built in... More
