My stay at Playa Palms Beach Hotel was wonderful. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and let me check in early. Alfredo checked me in and was extremely kind, giving me recommendations for food and helping me get acquainted with the area. The room and patio was comfortable and clean, housekeeping left adorable towel animals. The kitchen is well equipped with dishes, cutlery, coffee mugs, etc. I enjoyed the pool, and the areas for washing sand off were extremely useful as the beaches in Playa I visited didn't have them. I found the overall atmosphere very calming, as the hotel was mostly quiet, with my only complaint being the construction noises during the day sometimes.
