Nice place to stay! Rooms were clean and staff was friendly. Breakfast was served to us every morning on out patio.it was lovely and very close to everything yet was very quiet.
We had a great one bedroom suite with a view of the ocean through the palms. Staff were pleasant and very helpful. A great stay, within walking distance to 5th Avenue and shopping. Fabulous pool, small beach with fantastic view of the ocean. Swimming beach nearby.

Room was very clean and comfortable. Staff is very friendly.
Staff are very helpful and friendly. Hotel is right on the beach. Hotel is far enough away from the night life so not much noise. This is not an all inclusive, you can order breakfast for $10 us cold meal or $15 us per person for a hot meal. The restaurant next door is very accommodating, you can order and they will bring it right to your room or beach , we used them several times, great food!
The location for fish and the area 10, guy with the stash great reception

Lovely, small boutique hotel. Close to everything. Staff were very helpful.
Something that surprised us, was only given two coffee pods for our four day stay. No complimentary tea. Otherwise, a pleasant stay.
Room was great. Had everything we needed. The water jug with dispenser was a great touch. Location was very close to 5th ave..only a two minute walk. But far enough you don’t hear all the noise. Would stay here again
I LOVED this hotel once I moved to the 2nd floor.. Definitely worth the upgrade! The room, space, views, accommodations, and location to everything is great… however, that particular few blocks is kind of dark and secluded at night and there’s not really any type of access to a swimming beach from the hotel.. it’s about about a 4 minute walk to a nice beach..but I would definitely come back here! Staff was great! Gracias Alfredo!

This is my 3rd stay at the Playa Palms Beach Hotel. I love its boutique style, clean, ample sized rooms and its close proximity to the lively nightlife and restaurants but tucked away quietly on a "very" small beach. I also enjoyed having my daily breakfast, always delivered on time, on my private patio/balcony overlooking the ocean.
We had an incredible stay here! This beautiful little beach hotel really has everything but a bar (which you wouldn’t really want anyway with so many within 2 min walking distance). Our room was very clean, equipped with everything you’d expect from a more premium 4-star experience.
The staff were also amazing. Super friendly and helpful, they provided tons of recommendations for food and nightlife that we really enjoyed.
The room’s ocean and beach view was great, especially from the patio where they bring continental breakfast to the room each morning. On its own the breakfast is awesome but my wife and I split one of the entree options - 100% worth doing especially for the price.
All in all, we couldn’t be happier with the stay here. 5/5 across the board.
