This is a great property, the room we stay in was very small with no mini fridge or dressers. Nonetheless, we enjoyed our stay. The lady at the front desk was awesome, and Angel in the beach club area was awesome and a lot of fun!

Great location, close to everything. Breakfast was just okay. We only got water in our room one day they told us they ran out, they also ran out of hand towels. The view from our room was gorgeous, being on a public beach it was a bit noisy but we enjoyed it

the beach was great with many chairs and beds. They put the cushions on late 11am. Most of the time the music was very loud and techno. YUCK. Pool was great but food was just ok.

Exactly want we needed and wanted. As close to the beach as possible. Private lounging area at the beach Big enough pool for cooling off Great, quiet A/C and comfortable bed and room. So close the the main shopping and dining streets

The hotel is centrally located, just steps away from the beach, shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Everything is within walking distance, which made exploring the area incredibly convenient. The staff was helpful and courteous, and the room was clean. While the room lacked a coffee maker and a fridge, it’s a minor detail considering the affordable price. The breakfast is simple but just what you need to start the day, coffee was great!

The hotel is nice but they need to do more with the facilities. There are no kini fridges in the rooms so is an inconvenient for guest that need to keep medications cold. Granted they allow to store them in the restaurant's fridge but then you are at the mercy of the hours of operations. The restaurant's is nice and right on the beach.

Staff was very helpful. Our room had no hot water and the room was full of mold. Very dirty. They had us by the beach and the pool are. Everyone from the beach kept come by our room. Because they thought it was the restroom. Very disappointed

Adult couple with no children. We had a nice 4 night stay. Our room was clean as was the hotel overall. The bed was quite firm, and we slept ok, but may be an issue for some. Hot water in the shower took several minutes. Front desk staff were helpful and friendly - thanks again for the recommendation of El Fogon - best pastor tacos! And after returning hungry from a long excursion day, the manager gave me her donut! The hotel and amenities were exactly as described - pool and beach were beautiful, and pool/beach chairs were available for guest use, with sunbeds requiring a minimum consumption. The beach club staff were friendly and didn’t pressure us to order, which we’ve often experienced at other beach clubs. What was not explicitly stated and what compelled this review - the beach club plays music from 11am to 7pm. Our room was adjacent to the bar and it was very loud, maybe not so loud for the other rooms - but for us, unexpected and loud. If your plans include afternoon naps, proceed with caution.

After reading some of the reviews we were considering cancelling but I’m sure glad we didn’t! Check in was easy, the room was simple but had everything we needed and most importantly had a terrific view and great air conditioning! We were 2nd floor beach front and wow what a way to start the day!!! The hotel was a little noisy at night (but not the hotel itself, it was from a nearby beach volleyball tournament and locals playing boom boxes on the beach haha). I’d say it was reliably quiet from 11:00pm-7:00am which was pretty much our normal sleep schedule so no issue for us. If I had my young kid and baby on the trip it would have been a problem however we didn’t so was a great hotel! Great location, walkable everywhere and safe. Free breakfast was a hot egg or French toast breakfast with coffee and was right on the beach patio. Not a five star hotel but for the price i would definitely recommend!!

Areia beach front hotel is the former Kinta Kan Hotel which has many reviews on google. Here’s my take on it: Pro: Location - Conveniently located near 5th Ave and walkable to almost everything ( Ferry to Cozumel/ Ado bus stop, restaurants, shopping etc.) Also the beachfront was gorgeous and hotel guests could use the beach chairs free of charge. The Cabañas came at a cost of 500 MXN per person minimum spend on food and drinks. The pool area was nicely maintained and the bar staff were extremely friendly. Cons - The hotel is quite old. We didn’t have a fridge in our room and the bathroom smelled like mold. The water pressure in the shower was extremely poor and the temperature inconsistent. The breakfast options were limited to toast, beans and scrambled eggs. One day they had pancakes but otherwise that’s it. Accompanied by lukewarm coffee or orange juice. Luckily there are many food options close by and a coffee shop right on the corner.

We stayed in the 3 bedroom/3 bath apartment.The hosts are super friendly and helpful however the room could use some TLC. The faucets have calcium buildup(not a super big deal though). The apartment is clean overall but there is mold on the bottom part of the wall in the living room area. It stormed one day and we found the cause of it. The sliding door area that leads outside leaks when it rains, therefore we had water everywhere in the living room. We did inform the front desk and they came and cleaned it up quickly. The beach club is included. We did not have the breakfast, but we did swim and have a few drinks. If you dont tip very well, they will question the amount you give them which was a little rude. The person did apologize the next day and we did enjoy the rest of the time we spent down there even though it's a little pricy for drinks. Overall, it was an enjoyable stay. Location is perfect, hotel staff is amazing, the beach club started sour but ended up being relaxing.

Hotel OK, but Playa del Carmen not for everyone!

The hotel was OK, the general layout with the pool and beach club was good. The room was supposed to be a luxury suite but was tiny, particularly the bathroom. Towels had stains and the curtains were hanging off the wall. All that said, this was not an expensive hotel so for what we paid probably reflects all this. The general layout of the pool, beach bar and beach club was really nice, however it merged directly with the public beach and it was crazily busy and noisy. Lying on a lounger I could hear 3 different types of music at full volume, making for an atmosphere that only the best noise cancelling headphones could cope with. Not my idea of a relaxing holiday! We really didn't research Playa del Carmen well enough. If you are looking for "lively" and are not worried about getting any chill time then maybe you will be OK with it, but not for us. It also could be anywhere, with bar after bar and shop after shop and no real resemblence of Mexico. A few hours were enough for us and we booked a different hotel in Cozumel which was much more to our taste. For Europeans wanting to visit here for a party then you will get that in Playa del Carmen but no different than you would get in Greece or Spain. So hotel I guess OK for the money, but do your research on Playa del Carmen and check if it is for you!

This place didn’t have any reviews when I booked through Expedia. I was worried but decided to take a chance. The pictures of the property are accurate, but not the rooms. Our room had bugs and looked dirty. The door did not lock properly, which was a struggle. Additionally, there was no water when we arrived; it came on 40 minutes later and was very weak. I came with my two daughters, aged 14 and 24. Our rooms were near the beach, bar, and male washroom, which made me feel unsafe. There were just too many problems upon arrival, so I decided to leave! Overall, my experience at this hotel was very disappointing. I had high hopes, but the lack of cleanliness, safety concerns, and inadequate amenities made it impossible for us to enjoy our stay. I would not recommend this place to anyone, especially families. It's important to prioritize safety and comfort, and unfortunately, this hotel fell short in both areas. I hope management takes these issues seriously to improve the experience for future guests. Also the hotel had a name change only, old name is Kinta Kan Hotel. Review aren’t good at all!

Beautiful ocean beach view as we paid extra for that type of room. The pool area and restaurant are also beautiful, couldn't ask for more there. Our room was at the far west corner of the property and where this review takes a hit. Very very noisy, as the sound from the park on the other side of the wall to the west comes right into the room, usually until 2am, as there are Mexican local buskers playing loud music and singing desperately for tips. There was no notice of our room being the noisy one, would definitely request any other beach front room, as the noise from the beach finishes much earlier, around 1130pm. AC worked but the fan was extremely weak and so it wasn't very effective. One of our bed lights was broken off the wall and hanging from the power cable. But this doesn't affect the review much as the ocean view really was spectacular. Not a complaint, as it's a reminder your far from home, but none of the staff speak English, so you'll need your phones translator handy for anything other than hi and bye. Breakfast doesn't start until 8am which is unfortunate as most day trips you have to already be at the shuttle for then, no reason not to start breakfast at a more reasonable 7am, as the days do start and finish early there. Perhaps this works in the hotel's favor, less takers. You get what you pay for and this was a 2000$ CDN 8 night stay, but the noise from the park was terribly inconvenient making rest limited for our eventful day trips.

Me and my daughter had a lovely stay here, the ground floor room looked out over the hotel pool which we had pretty much to ourselves every morning!! Breakfast was in a great spot overlooking the beach and the day beds and loungers in the beach were ideally situated. The staff took care of us really well, you can’t beat this hotel for location to the beach and just off 5th Avenue, no taxis required our entire stay!!
