This property is fantastic if your desire is to go to a laid back property and have a relaxing but fun time. It is not packed with party hungry 18 year olds. We noticed the guests were mostly couples and friend trips made up of ladies or couples. While they say tips are not expected, they really are. For the price of flights and the say along with the amazing food options on property, throw your server or housekeeping staff a few USD. Be careful when it comes to converting dollars to pesos - pay...

This is a great, little resort. The beach is, in my opinion, is one of the best in the area. It is white and powdery. The staff rakes it each morning so there are no rocks or debris. There could be more beach chairs, but the staff work very hard to assure that you get a chair. My room was perfectly located within walking distance to the beach. I had a room directly above Rick’s bar and the adjoining pool, but never felt it was too loud. The staff are all very hard working and welcoming. The...

This hotel is beautiful! Beds are comfortable and the rooms, views, and roof top pool are extraordinary. I loved the feel of the property and it provides a very personalized experience. I traveled alone from Seattle and even though I was alone (my bf broke up with me three days before this trip we were supposed to be on together), but I had the whole team at Mvngata (pronounced moon-gata) to help me heal from a devastating breakup. They loved on me and made me feel safe and full of joy. This...

We stayed for 6 wonderful nights in a 2BR penthouse. Staff were wonderful, A/C and WiFi worked great. The kitchen had just about everything you could need. Bedrooms were very comfortable and bathrooms very nice. The public spaces were always well maintained. We loved all of the furnished outdoor spaces, 2 on the main level and the amazing rooftop patio with a hot tub, BBQ, palapa and ocean views! Book a penthouse and you will not be disappointed....Word of warning though, there are a LOT...

Porto Playa Condo Hotel & Beachclub

Gonzalo Guerrero

10/10 Excellent

We had an incredible experience at Porto Playa. From the moment we arrived we felt so welcome and comfortable. The room was gorgeous. We had the penthouse so it was HUGE with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. We had room to spread out and have our own space. The pool is gigantic and so nice to swim in and the hot tubs are also lovely. The staff was so friendly and gracious. It was a pretty slow week so we had the place mostly to ourselves and it was very quiet. I will definitely return.

It's close to everything!! The rooms are spacious, the beds are huge, and it's very quiet and relaxing. The beach nearby is nothing to get excited about but Lester referred us to Kool Club just a few blocks away and we spent our days there by the pool & beach, well attended by the staff. The only bad thing I have to say is the wifi never works and they should stop advertising that they have it. If you go on vacation to get away from all that like I do, it's not a big problem. There's a Stabucks...

The hotel was very calm and quiet which was great. The location was perfect, felt like 75 restaurants and shops were within a 5-10 mins walk of the hotel. The beach was also a 5-minute walk from the hotel. Loved the floorplan of the suite. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The only negative we had was that we booked roundtrip airport transportation through the hotel (VM travel services), which arrival was great but they completely forgot to pick us up for departure which caused us to have...

First time staying in Playa del carmen and we stumbled upon this gem. This hotel is on 10 Ave and 12th street which is literally at the center of it all. You are across the street from CocoBongo, two blocks from the beach, and one block from 5th Ave where all the shops and food places are. The hotel is quite, all of the rooms open to the pool and have hammocks. The pool is gorgeous and looks like a lush garden. It was raining the first two days we were there and spent the day in the pool. I...

Property was great! The large central pool was very clean and fun to play in. 2 restaurants located on site. Easy access to the beach. Beach was very clean when we got there and then became full of seaweed the last couple days we were there. It really all depends on weather and currents as to how bad the beaches will be. Property manager was easy to work with. We had an issue with the AC and they fixed it quickly. We had a great stay. Just a couple heads up items: Kitchen had plenty...

Hyatt recently rebranded this property in December of 2024, so those returning to PDC might remember this as the Thompson. If you reserve the downtown location, it is literally in the middle of everything. The beach house is about 2 blocks away. Regardless of which property you reserve, you have access to both. The beach house is right on the beach. Both locations have pools and restaurants. The downtown location is adults only. The pool at the downtown location is stunning. It's an infinity...
