"Great stay in PDC. I absolutely love the hospitality and would visit again. The food was nothing to write home about, but it did the job for resort food. If I ever come back to Playa Del Carmen, I would still stay at this property given it's proximity to the nightlife, which I did not get a chance to enjoy because I really wanted to relax and just let myself enjoy the property. I would say the highlight of this property is the staff and the service and it's so good that it's worth a repeat visit."
