Hôtel spa à Solidaridad

Standout was the unique rooms which are extremely private, spacious and beautifully designed along the lagoon. Personally I didn’t quite understand the ‘Butler’ concept and found some of the comms style a bit frustrating. The other standout was the ‘Day of the dead’ celebrations. The property was decorated beautifully and very well organised. The opportunity to also participate was great as we felt emerged in the festivities. It would have been nice if the dinner package also included the face painting. More broadly the property is set within mayakoba so you can explore the grounds including the other hotels and it was fun to explore on the bikes. The only other thing to be aware off is also this is the more premium / exclusive hotel in mayakoba it’s still geared towards families or at least there where quite a few kids around. Finally don’t have high expectations of the beach it’s tiny and there isn’t much space. If you want high end luxury visit Maroma.

Il s'agit d'un groupe d'hôtels. Il y a trois ou quatre hôtels combinés. Certains sont adaptés aux familles, et certains ne sont ouverts qu'aux adultes. L'hôtel est très grand et doit prendre un bus touristique pour aller et venir à divers endroits. Les installations peuvent être utilisées les unes avec les autres, et les activités sont très riches. Il y a une femme de ménage en bas dans chaque bâtiment pour s'occuper de tous les besoins des clients de ce bâtiment ! Le service était excellent! Après 8h00 tous les matins, le majordome organisera le programme des activités de toute la journée, les heures d'ouverture du restaurant et divers concerts, et enverra tout le temps d'activité à tout le monde, ce qui est très prévenant ! Il y a plein d'activités chaque jour ! Il y a vingt restaurants différents dans le groupe hôtelier au choix, tout compris, très attentionné ! Il y a aussi de nombreuses animations tous les soirs, des performances musicales, des fêtes diverses ! Arrangements autour de l'horloge! Le littoral est également très long, et il y a aussi des lacs intérieurs qui sillonnent l'intérieur. Le décor est très bien ! Idéal pour des vacances en famille!

Pros: very clean, staff are helpful and polite. The beach is beautiful white sand with turquoise water and palm trees for shade.  There are a lot of chairs around the pools and on the beach. The room was comfy, good beds and pillows. Great shower and bathtub.   The property is well kept. The are many activities, games and events organized.  CONS:  The food is average, generic and limited for vegetarians.  The restaurant menues are not a la carte. It’s a fixed menu.  The cocktail are way too sweet , except for David, it was impossible to get a good drink. The wine is dry but no choice not even to purchased. If you like an American diet with everything sweet and you want to hand by the pool and bar, you will be happy. If you want to rest on the beach, without having vendors bug you every 5 minutes plus  having to breathe cigarette smokes which is allowed all over the beach.   If you like decent food and enjoy a good cocktail and wine.  This place is not for you.

Great Stay at Riu Playacar We enjoyed our stay at this clean, well-organized resort with spacious, quiet rooms (ours had no balcony, but it was fine). The minibar was a nice touch, and the bathroom was spotless. Highlights: ✔ Food variety – Multiple à-la-carte restaurants (dinner reservations not needed) and buffets with good lunch/breakfast options. ✔beach – Plenty of sunbeds but no umberalla so bring your sunscreen, though pools get crowded les sunbeds. ✔ Access to sister hotels – Party lovers can visit Riu Tequila’s club nearby. ✔ Convenient location – Mini-market across the street, and Playa del Carmen (5th Ave) is just a 150-peso taxi ride away. ✔ Easy airport transfer – ADO bus (250 pesos/person, 45-min ride + 5-min taxi 150 pesos next to ado turism station). Minor drawbacks: ✖ No elevators – Tough for guests with mobility issues. ✖ Entertainment hiccups – The host sometimes forgot to switch back to English after Spanish announcements. Perfect for: Travelers who want good value, variety, and proximity to Playa’s nightlife.

Here’s a polished review you can use for the Wyndham Hotel Playa del Carmen: ⸻ Wyndham Hotel Playa del Carmen – Honest Review We had a very enjoyable stay at Wyndham Playa del Carmen overall! The customer service was truly amazing — we were even upgraded to a beautiful suite with an oceanfront view, which made a huge difference. The buffet was great with lots of options, and the staff throughout the hotel was consistently friendly and welcoming. However, a few things to note: there are very pushy salespeople around the property who are constantly trying to upsell timeshares and spa packages. It’s understandable, but it did get a little tiring at times. The hotel is directly on the beach, but the beachfront isn’t ideal for swimming since it’s very rocky and shallow. You need to walk about five minutes down to find a spot where you can comfortably swim. The overall vibe of the hotel is a bit outdated and cheesy — definitely a mixed crowd of younger people looking to party and older guests, giving it a bit of a “cruise ship” atmosphere. My husband and I had never done an all-inclusive before, and although we got an amazing deal, it’s probably not something we would repeat at this property. As for dining: • The buffet was solid — lots of choices, decent quality — I’d rate it a 7/10. • The two à la carte restaurants (that required reservations) were subpar, so we honestly preferred the buffet experience. • The sushi swim-up bar was a bit of a letdown; the sushi wasn’t great (but understandable given the location). Our only real disappointment was the hot tub — it was very tiny, difficult to find, far away from everything, and when we finally reached it on our last night, it was lukewarm and not fully functioning. Final thoughts: If you’re looking for a budget-friendly all-inclusive with great staff, decent food, and a nice view — this is a good choice. Just know it’s not super luxurious, and swimming directly in front of the hotel isn’t ideal. It’s located right in the heart of Playa where there are lots of partying going on, if you want that sort of scene. We’re glad we tried it, but we’ll probably explore other options and quieter locations next time.

T’es bel hôtel chambres spacieuse belle piscine Personnel aimable petit déjeuner correct Dommage que le cappuccino du matin soit payant quand on a le peut-il déjeuner est inclus Au calme malgré l’emplacement dans le centre Très proche de la gare routière Je recommande

Pros - the staff is all wonderful. The resort has been recently renovated so it’s in relatively good condition.  Cons - the food isn’t great… I would call it mediocre verging on poor. The a la carte restaurants weren’t great either and I would call the booking system/insane red tape process to visit the a la carte restaurants off putting, verging on insane.  I probably won’t be back for the above stated reasons, but I must reiterate that all of the service staff were truly lovely and no question the highlight of the trip.

L'emplacement est super. L'enregistrement a été facile. Les chambres sont spacieuses avec une petite kitchenette (cuisinière et micro-ondes) mais il n'y a pas de vaisselle ni d'ustensiles pour cuisiner. Installation de café/thé décente. Beaux peignoirs. Réfrigérateur de taille moyenne avec section congélateur. Les chambres avec vue sur la ville n'ont pas de balcon et donnent sur la rue avec vue sur le glacier et la laverie. La piscine est chaude et des serviettes de piscine sont disponibles. À 1 pâté de maisons de la rue animée et à 2 pâtés de maisons de la plage. Il y a un bar avec une table de billard, un baby-foot et des fléchettes où l'happy hour était proposé pendant une heure par jour. LE PETIT-DÉJEUNER NE VALAIT PAS LA PEINE DE SE LEVER TÔT. Les options étaient très limitées et il était froid. De plus, après avoir vérifié notre réservation au restaurant du petit-déjeuner, ils insistaient pour que nous le payions lorsque nous l'avons payé avec la réservation. J'ai également eu l'impression que le personnel du petit-déjeuner était un peu impoli lorsque j'ai essayé de demander des détails sur la station, d'autres faisaient la queue pour me rappeler des choses qui étaient incluses ou non.

Firstly El Beso is simply 1 building within the larger Ocean Rivera resort. Meaning only your building is Adults Only. Our Swim up room was lovely. We tried almost all if not all of the 10 restaurants and we had no complaints the food was good. Maybe not always amazing but never terrible. There’s like 3/4 different brands or levels of service within the larger resort. El Beso seems to be 1 level from the top which is Privilege we switched for an extra night & the mini bar for privilege was much better as well as having the butler service and priority restaurant bookings when they were all booked. There’s also a special restaurant only for privilege that was great but none of the restaurants were extremely crowded. There’s an app or webpage that works like an app with all of the resort info and you can book reservations there. There’s also lots of entertainment nightly. It’s definitely a place to go and stay there’s no need to venture outside of the resort there’s so many things to do schedules are packed for all of the different areas & a bowling alley and theater. There is not much near by the tourist area is maybe 20 mins away by car down the beach.

Tout le personnel était sympathique et gentil. C'était mieux car il n'y avait que des étrangers et pas de Coréens. Personnellement, c'était une aubaine que je n'aie pas fait Arte ! Au contraire, j'ai rencontré beaucoup de Coréens pendant la tournée hahaha.
