Better to visit other beaches a bit further, that one was very small.

9/10 Wonderful! (600 reviews)
The best things about this place are the location and the people. Right off of Quinta Avienda maybe a 5 minute walk to the beach. The staff is super friendly and helpful with all of our requests.

8.4/10 Very Good! (585 reviews)
The resort is beautiful one of the most aesthetically pleasing that I’ve stayed at. However, the food at the restaurants came out cold and was very bland and mid. Same thing with the food at the buffet, room service and pool side service. Overall, the food at the resort was underwhelming, a lot of fancy options that didn’t hit home. There also needs to be louder music at the adult only pool to create a better vibe with a more curated playlist to cater to the adult crowd. There also should be music playing at the bars on the inside of the resort also. Lastly, there needs to be more interactive activities at night catered to adults that last longer than 30 minutes.

2/5 - Disappointing
Verified traveller
Local beach was covered with seaweed and stank
1/5 - Terrible
Verified traveller
Seaweed problem awful, despite everyone's best efforts to remove. When machines are moving the seaweed, lots of flies appear. I wouldn't come to Playa Del Carmen for the beach, as it is not possible to use.
