We had a group of 8 people stay at this hotel May 3-10 of 08. The hotel is small, clean and on the more mellow north end of Playa. First off, this is a very basic hotel. Its not for the all inclusive traveler or pampered types. We like staying at little spots like this because in Playa there are... more

My husband and I have just returned from a 10 day vacation at the Riviera del Sol. Had a great time. The rooms were a good size, large shower, fridge and cute balcony. The front desk staff were wonderful and our rooms were always clean. Beach passes to Mamita's Beach Club was a plus, as was the breakfast every morning.... more

This hotel is 1 block from Mamitas beach and 1 block from the famous "5th Avenue". Perfect location, small charming pool and very clean updated rooms with balconies. Friendly staff and great fruit and yogurt for breakfast. I'll be back!!! more

We stayed at Riviera Del Sol February 24, 2008 through March 2, 2008. Stayed in room 301. The employees at the front desk were all polite; the room was large and clean, but the room lacks ample clothes storage for places to put your clothes. Water and ice are not provided daily. Two small cups of purified water were provided... more

We stayed in this hotel the end of May to the first week of June and while the hotel was very clean and the front desk was very helpful, I felt it was a bit over priced. Granted it was 1 block away from the beach, most hotels are in this area! Bring AMERICAN cash - they peg their rates... more

I chose Riviera del Sol because of the location and the good reviews I read on various websites. First, the good. It's SPOTLESS. Whatever sand I tracked in was mopped up by Dulce each morning. The bathroom was very clean as well as the rest of the room. The water got very hot even though I didn't use it to... more

We stayed here in mid-April 2007. Trying to find a nice hotel in Playa del Carmen was a daunting task. Everything on or near the beach was booked. We didn't want to stay in Playacar and we didn't want to be on 5th Ave. We were driving, so parking was a concern. The hotel where we had stayed just seven... more

Since most reviews were positive, I booked 2 rooms for me and my kids. The rooms were spacious and looked out onto the pool area. My problem was that it was noisy because of the traffic; I don't think it would be much different in any other small hotel. One got use to it quickly. Showers were hot, so I... more

This was our 5th time to Playa del Carmen, and our first time at the Riviera del Sol. We only stayed one night, as we'd rented a condo for the rest of our time. The location is fantastic -- in the Italian section, away from the big crowds, and close to the beach. Like most places in Playa, however, it... more
