The ocean front rooms are great! Beautiful views. However, the mirror in the bathroom should be updated. Safe did not work, no one answered the phone when we called room service. Food was just ok. The beach is really great! Wide with lots of chairs and swimmable water. Great customer service! All in all, this hotel is nice, needs some updates but overall very pleasant stay.

The Select club concierge service staff was extremely helpful, polite and informative. Giving our thaks and gratitude to Zyanya, MaJo and Eyther. We did not liked the specific location in the room assigned to us at arrival and they stepped in. We got upgrated as Expedia VIP members to Ocean view room anx very grateful for that. Their attention to details on daily basis was amazing. Also all personal of the Sandos hotel is polite and always friendly. The territory of the hotel is beautiful and of course the Caribbean Sea and the beach are amazing. The waters are crystal clear with smooth white sand. We will be vack again.

This was our 3rd time staying at Sandos Playa Del Carmen. We like the property, beach is wonderful. Staff is friendly. Has lots of pool options and eating places but was harder to get in restaurants this time. All in all beautiful big property with lots of choices. And its very walkable if your at all fit somewhat.

This is a great motel for the price. It is clean, good restaurants, clean pools. You don’t have to fight for chairs. Our favorite restaurants were the Italian and the Asian. We were hesitant to go to the Asian, but liked it. The beach is wonderful. Very little seaweed. We have been to a number of hotels in Mexico over the last 25 years. This is a good motel and we will be back. Maria by the adults only pool is really helpful. Carlo made it fun with his activities by the pool.

Very clean, friendly staff, huge buffet and great food. Beach area super nice. Only thing I wouldn’t give 5 stars is because the pool close very early and theres no bar/bar waitress around after 6pm in the pool and beach area. Which makes the area very boring. Also keep in mind in the summer (busy season) the restaurants are all reserved 3/4 days ahead. So if you don’t reserve them your only option would be the buffet (great food).

Property fantastic! Room maintenance over the years has been a bit sloppy but the room was very clean with a fantastic view. Dining was fantastic as well and it's hard to imagine a more beautiful beach. Staff was very accommodating and friendly and while seemed very appreciative of tips did not treat us any differenly on occasions that we forgot to bring cash for tip. Drinks were fantastic as well. The only real negatives were non working elevators for the duration of our syay in our building(2000 building) and smoking outside of the designated smoking areas was not enforced at all including the resort owned beach area. Being as we are both very sensitive to the smell and the dirtiness of using the sand as an ashtray this was upsetting.
