Location - Great if you do not want to be right on the beach. Your right next to 5th Avenue and the better side of it in our opinion where its less touristy and the quality... More

Dear "newyork1717", Thanks for the feedback. We can't agree on your view regarding our front desk. We are sorry, but we do not do, ever, what you said we did when you arrived. Most hotels in the world charge for stained or otherwise damaged towels; makeup is extremely difficult to clean, and some towels have to be discarded. Anyway, we... More

We went there for our 10-year wedding anniversary. This hotel attracts more Europeans than Americans, mainly couples, all ages. The staff is very courteous and laid back, and they want to make you happy. The rooms are well designed and comfortable. If you want to avoid the typical resort and try something more trendy, check it out. Really! Rooftop with... More

I like the hotel in that it is well situated. However, for a hotel that has been recently built, it feels somewhat rundown. The a/c caused water to drip into our room one night. When we told the hotel, they didn't seem all that surprised. Also, just the general amenities were not that awesome. However, one plus is the breakfast... More

We stayed two nights at Be Playa, while we were in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. Right off the bat, when we arrived we knew we would not be disappointed. The beautiful reception was right up my alley, just the right mix of vintage and modern, there were so many things I would be proud to have in my own home.... More

The hotel has a great location, the decoration of the rooms is contemporary and modern, somewhat minimalist. The staff is very friendly. A nice touch is complimentary to put apples in the halls every day. One detail that not everyone may like is that the bathroom has no separation of the room. This means that the shower has no door...
