I booked this resort for a long weekend with my wife, and having read about the prior guest's problems with reservations not being honored, and being offered a stay at the Maya, I thought I would take proactive steps to avoid this. I called a week and then 2 days before our arrival and was told that our reservation was... More

The Azteca is a smaller hotel, located on the white sands of the Playa del Carmen beach. It is very nice, but nothing exceptional. The rooms are... More
