My wife and I stayed at Be Playa a few weeks ago. In short, it’s one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed anywhere in the world and highly recommend it for those looking for a place to stay in Playa del Carmen.

Pros:
-Modern, large, sun filled rooms with everything from dual shower heads, in room Jacuzzi, large outdoor deck, etc. These rooms have everything you want.
-Fantastic location about 4 blocks from the beach, in the main tourist area but yet on the fringe of a nice residential area. The location is one of the best parts of the hotel.
-Cool roof deck with pool, bar, great lounge chairs, and good views and music
-Amazing staff that you make you feel like family. You can’t ask for a warmer environment.
-Surprisingly good sushi restaurant. Some of the best sushi I’ve had and hotel guests get a 20% discount so it is affordable.

Cons:
-None really. Some might be disappointed with the size of the complimentary breakfast but it’s more than enough to power you to lunch.

I won’t hesitate to stay at Be Playa the next time I come to Playa del Carmen.

we steyed 4 amaizing nights in This tastefully decorated hotel. The service was excellent;The room was beautiful, comfortable and clean/ We loved the double shower and whirlpool.
The only thing that needs improvement relative - breakfast was not so good and the ingredients were poor
But who wants a different kind of hotel, with an experience of a stylish, centered of all the action - this is the place.

We enjoyed our stay at Be Playa. The room is very modern and cool yet it has a great deal of windows facing to the hall, instead of walls, making it sensitive for noise. The roof bar is very nice and it's fun hanging there especially at night but notice that on Thursday-Saturday there are parties there and you will hear the music pretty loud in your room until 1-2am.

The hotel restaurant (sushi bar) is great and the guests enjoy 20% discount which is pretty cool.

The breakfast is continental: only fruit, croissant and toast.


Location is perfect right next to Mamitas beach which is the best beach in my opinion.


Shower has no door so we had a tons of water on the floor after every shower.



The reception staff was super nice and helpful and we enjoyed our stay there very much.



The only things I would say that bothered me:

1. The mini-bar in our room didn't work and no one fixed it although i requested twice.

2. We had a live cockroach in our room.

3. The waiter in the restaurant pretty much forced us to leave 20 pesos tip on the complementary breakfast, which was very rude.

4. The pool has rusty table+chairs in it so I felt it was gross getting into the water.

I am picky. Beyond picky. I like things "just right".
I have been vacationing in Playa Del Carmen for almost a decade but have never liked staying at resorts. I always prefer to stay in town and do my own thing. Some friends recommended BE PLAYA so I decided to give it a try. Things could not have been more perfect. My room (Master Suite) was gorgeous and so comfortable. The staff was amazing. Everyone was so friendly. Every time I left or came into the hotel they greeted me by name. They took care of my every need and request. One morning I took a dress to the front desk and asked for it to be sent out to be pressed. No problem they said. I left the hotel for 30 minutes to run an errand and when I got back I found it pressed and hanging in my room. The attached restaurant (Sushi Club) was also amazing for all meals - breakfast, lunch and dinner. This is how all hotels should operate and treat their guests. BE PLAYA is my new second home! I will be back!
