Lots of options in playa. This is a small hotel located at very end of main strip. Close to beach clubs if that is your thing. They do offer 50% off chairs at mamitas not a lot of ambience and very small dipping pool found other hotels at better prices and amenities. More

On 5th avenue near the beach, the restaurants and the bars. Very clean. The free breakfast was ok but a little bit frugal. More

We came across Hotel Banana and loved it! It's not huge, not all inclusive, but it's clean, comfortable, quiet,... More

My Boyfriend and I stayed in this hotel in the discounted room right outside the pool. It was not the cleanest facility and the pool had some unwanted critters in it, however the customer service made up for the condition of the hotel. The price was great and the location was top notch! It puts you in the heart of... More
