Located in Playa del Carmen, 8.8 km from Playa del Carmen Maritime Terminal, Hotel Xcaret Arte - All Parks All Fun Inclusive - Adults Only provides accommodation with free bikes, free private parking,...

This hotel was awesome. Food and drinks were good, staff was great, parks and workshops were fun, room was big, clean and comfortable. Everyday you received a Mexican treat enclosed in a small weave basket to take home - in addition to your stocked out mini bar and snack tray. You also get to keep the reusable water bottles and beach bag in your room. The communication between me and the hotel via email before arrival was excellent. I was able to reserve activities, airport shuttle, and restaurants prior to my stay. You need a reservation for the restaurant Tah-Xido but it was worth it. I also enjoyed the other restaurants Mercedes de San Juan, Cayuco, and Arenal. The wet bar at the pool was nice and a lot of sitting areas. I recommend this hotel.

Located in Playa del Carmen, 7.6 km from ADO International Bus Station, Hacienda Xcaret provides accommodation with free bikes, free private parking, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden.

A small piece of Yucatan jungle, with separate apartments, a swimming pool, a neo-colonial main house (where the owners live). Monkeys in the trees accept bananas and it's so funny to see them eating. Iguanas, mosquitoes....well...you're in the jungle, right? Very comfortable apartments, clean and spacious. The gardener from Acapulco, Marco (I think), helped us a lot until the owner came.

    Quaint hotel with lovely affordable rooms, good wifi, water suply, powerful AC & comfy beds. Very central location close to all amenities at PdC, restaurants, and 5 mins to the 5th Avenue and ADO station. They also have a car park. Lovely pool to relax, and my son had a great time splashing around. We stayed twice during our trip, and Jesus and all the team went far and beyond to reply to all our queries, gave plenty of recommendations, and adapted to our plan changes. We loved our stay here.

    The roof top and pool were really nice, spacious room with internal patio facing on to a jungle simulation garden, very tranquil and pleasant. The location is away from the hustle and bustle and quite exclusive, close to beach. i am aware i wasn't the ideal customer as i encountered a situation and didn't check out on time, i did not mean to cause any trouble and appreciate your handling of the situation, thank you.

    It was very clean and spacious. We could leave our luggage very early and our room was ready which was really great. Hot shower. The location is really good to go by foot to the centre and to the Ado bus terminal. They let us leave our luggage the day of our checkout, very practical. They provided us quickly with a cockroach spray when needed. (it’s normal there, don’t worry) There are plates, cutlery and cups as well as a fridge. There is a good and cheap empanadas store on the opposite site.

The person in charge was always very fast to respond and deal with every detail. The contract and the way they handle legal part of the process was very clear and transparent. Location is amazing. Right at the end of 5th avenue. You are center yet far enough to enjoy the good night sleep. Thank you so much for everything.
