Hyatt Vivid Playa Del Carmen - Adults Only - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time in the time we spent at the resort, everyone was nice, helpful and very welcoming. Mario, Camilo and Santiago and all the servers were amazing 👍 We loved the location being so close to 5th avenue for shopping and walking around,"

Sofía by Bunik

8/10 Good

"My sixth time in this hotel. But this time it was loud (they said they were 100% capacity) and people were just loud and inconsiderate of the time of night. But still like the room setup. The staff is friendly but any hiccups and you’ll have to wait for the goodwill of the manager which usually will take a couple days. It’s a trade off. I like the location and the price and it’s an awesome place as long as it goes smoothly."

Meliora By Bunik

10/10 Excellent

"Très bien situé ( près du Walmart et de la 5eme) La gare d'autobus est a un coin de rue si vous voulez prendre le bus de l'aeroport si j'avais su c'est ce que j'aurai fait... Hôtel excellent rapport qualité prix, les suites sont bien équipées même mieux que certains rbnb que j'ai loués. La piscine sur le toit un gros plus. L'entretien ménager A-1... Franchement un score presque parfait si on ne s'attend pas à un service de congiergerie à la porte."
