First time staying at Sandos Playacar, definitely would come back. Resort was beautiful, beach was great. The girls at the Guest Experience (especially Zyanya) were amazing. They helped us book all dinner reservations while we waited for room to be ready. Also helped us to upgrade our room from a Family Junior Suite to an Adults Only Select room as these were closer to the beach and adult pool. The food was delicious, definitely recommend El Gaucho Steakhouse

I had a great room in the adults only section and loved it! The resort seems huge so there is a lot of walking but the adults section was pretty central. I do wish that adults only pool had the swim up bar and music playing like the family pool. Resort was clean and the staff was friendly. I did arrive to the resort pretty late and the restaurants were all closed. I ordered room service and it took probably 10-15 minutes to get through. Once finally ordered, I believe my food took 45 mins to arrive. I hit the buffet and the taco place for meals and loved everything!
