The location was excellent, overlooking busy and bustling 5th street. Room was clean, and nicely appointed. We thought the pools were very nice and loved the layout of the hotel. You will have access to their sister hotel on the beach if you want. Most everything you could possibly want is within walking distance. Shops, restaurants, activitiy kiosks etc. The... More

My husband and I went to playa del carmen for a wedding. We just wanted rather a little nice boutique hotel than a gigantic resort you feel like you are in a zoo or amusement park with lots of people. Mosquito blue was the perfect place for that. Though the hotel is couple of blocks away from the beach, there... More

I stayed at Mosquito Blue for the second time this March and enjoyed myself again - this time with my husband! While there are a few language barriers with the delightful staff and it is very tough to keep a tropical property completely clean and without mildew - Mosquito Blue is still my go to place in Playa del Carmen....

Stayed at Mosquito Blue for a week prior to the Easter break. Felt like a little haven when we arrived from our long trip and still does whenever we come in from a walk along the main drag! Rooms are stylish, clean and beds/pillows comfy with effective air con & safe. Only downside is just one accessible plug socket in... More

Small rooms, but clean and modern. Friendly service. Good food. Not a great value for us, but it was Christmas vacation week, so prices were high. If you can get the room at a bargain rate you won't be disappointed. Near the beach, but the pool was small.

Me and my husband were staying at the Blue Mosquito for our honeymoon the past week. The agency which recommanded us the Blue Mosquito was so amazed with the people working in the hotel, the location and the service in general, so we immediately decided to stay there. The first impression was already really bad, because they gave us a... More

Nice little boutique hotel and we found it very relaxing to come back and lounge by the pool to get away from the beach crowds. The staff was wonderful, everyone always smiled and greeted you and the front desk would go out of their way to help you. Room was always clean. They pay attention to little things. Came back...

My friends and I stayed in the 2 bedroom master suite from Fri - Mon this past weekend. The room was lovely and far enough away from the front of the hotel that we didn't hear the crazy music and partying from 5th Ave. The room was large and nice, but the master bathroom's jacuzzi's stopper was broken.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Mosquito Blue Hotel & Spa is Playa del Carmen’s first luxury boutique hotel located in the heart of 5th Avenue amid Playa’s many shops, bars and restaurants. This intimate two-story, adults-only hotel offers two pools surrounded by lush landscaped gardens and chaise lounges, open-air gourmet dining and lounge area. Mosquito Blue Hotel’s design elements stand out with its mix of contemporary European style and tropical Caribbean colors, created and designed by its Italian owner. The décor is tropical chic, a mixture of modern elegance with casual tropical living. The curving pools are surrounded with subtle lighting hidden among the tropical plants and winding paths to help achieve the mood. The center-piece is the palapa-thatched two story open-air ‘tent’ with a sofa and cushions below, and a billiard table above. In the upper sitting area, guests enjoy a complimentary petit dejeuner in the morning of tea, coffee and fruit. Padded seats carved into the stone create a convivial meeting spot. Just three blocks away is Mosquito Blue’s beachfront sister hotel, where guests can enjoy a private beach club with day beds, lounge chairs, towels, food and wait-staff. Mosquito Blue Restaurant and Lounge has been a trendsetter in Playa del Carmen, unequaled in quality and sophistication of both its menu and design. When it opened in 2003, the restaurant became the first in Playa to offer a chic gourmet dining experience on the popular 5th Avenue, in the heart of Playa del Carmen’s tourism district. A team of Italian chefs transforms ingredients from the Mexican Caribbean kitchen into a delicious Mediterranean Italian culinary experience. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Full bar with emphasis on wine, both by the bottle and glass. Enjoy a superb collection of Italian wines carefully imported just for Mosquito Restaurants. Open for dinner; no reservations required from 6 pm-12pm. The 45 air-conditioned guestrooms are spacious and intimate, modern and ethnic. They feature hand-crafted mahogany beds, arching doorways, artisan coffee tables and modern accessories. All have cable television and high-speed Internet access. ... more   less
