Do not book -- go to Aldea Thai by La Divina
We booked through Hotels.com and received our confirmation. Upon arrival, we were told at the hotel reception desk that the Oceanfront manager didn't have the reservation and didn't have any rooms available. We were also told by someone not associated with the hotel that it had happened before with Oceanfront. As the Aldea Thai building has space managed by many different agencies and the reception desk is general, I didn't get the chance to speak to the person who actually manages the Oceanfront properties at Aldea Thai. Hotels.com couldn't even get the manager on the phone to find out what happened. I highly recommend against booking this property and believe Hotels.com shouldn't book for them. It's not right to leave people hanging and without a room. I will say, however, that Hotels.com staff were very helpful in staying on the phone with us and finding another room. Thank you. We stayed at Aldea Thai by La Divina which is always wonderful with very professional and helpful staff, as well as lovely rooms. We're very thankful that our vacation wasn't ruined by the unprofessional, and seemingly unremorseful, Oceanfront management.

Old, stinky hotel
Nearly impossible to find this hotel as google GPS has the wrong address, plus it was very expensive for the ugly, stinky, old building. Our blankets were dirty, called to get new ones, they just came to do the beds with the same dirty blankets. I would never return to this hotel,

Dirty, Old, Pictures show something else
When we first arrived we had to wait for the administration to give us the room since it is a rental, but since we booked through Expedia we thought it would be charged trough them, they explained to us it was not and they will only give us key when the person in chargers arrived. Then he GBM us the room, it was horrible not at all as the pictures, very old, very dirty, the pillows where old, not fluffy at all. The complex is beautiful but we definitely would stick to chain hotels next time

It was a great location. If enough people >4 I would recommend staying at the penthouse. It's beautiful. The vibe is more of an apart hotel which is great if you want to have a kitchen, buy food as well. That being said, for this same reason when we arrived we paid cash to the manager, not credit card. It was all fine but just something to be aware of. Overall good stay.

Booker Beware
Booked this hotel for the final 2 nights of a 10 night trip to the Riviera Maya over christmas holiday. Worst experience of the 6 hotels we stayed out over that time. Biggest disappointment was that upon arrival, they had sold our room to someone else!!! There I was with my family at 8pm on December 29 (busiest time of the season) without anywhere to stay in Playa del Carmen. The concierge for the hotel mentioned that they always "overbook" and I got the sense what we were experiencing was part of their booking practices. He took us over to the adjacent property in the same building (La Divina at Aldea Thai) and we found a room that slept 2 people for just that one night. My 14-yr old son slept on the couch. Aldea Thai at Oceanfront didn't offer to pay for the room and we forked out the same amount of money despite it not sleeping 3 people. We were on the street for Dec 30. It gets worse. Only one block away was an annual event - DJ Fest - blasting electronic dance music from 1pm-12am every day between Dec. 29-31. The building was shaking and the room we took was directly across from the event. The hotel would have had every bit of knowledge that this event was taking place (annual event!) and yet mentioned nothing of this before we arrived. A father of a large family with many kids was there at the front desk at La Divina asking what they could do to go stay somewhere else. The place was chaos! Even worse... the room they gave us smelled so strongly of garbage/compost.

No lo recomiendo - Robo de pertenencias
Tuvimos una experiencia muy desafortunada. Primero que nada, nos robaron algunas pertenencias y nadie del hotel se hizo responsable. Hubo construcción en un cuarto cercano al nuestro ocasionando ruido durante el día, y por último, los dos últimos días los cuartos olían a cañería por un proceso de limpieza que hicieron en el hotel. El staff poco servicial, y el proceso de checkin con muchas oportunidades de mejora. Creo que hay mucho mejores opciones de hospedaje en Playa del Carmen, no les recomiendo Aldea Thai.

La peor experiencia para tus vacaciones
Rentamos un Deluxe Penthouse Beach view que todo fue mentira, el departamento estaba en condiciones deplorables, nos cambiaron a otro que estaba peor, las fotos son falsas. La atención del administrador Gerardo que por cierto todo el tiempo esta drogado fue indignante, nos falto al respeto verbalmente, no hay agua caliente, es un precio excesivo por el servicio que ofrecen. No aceptan pago con tarjeta solo efectivo, no dan comprobante fiscal. Al parecer es lavado de dinero y tiene contratadada como hostess a una argetina llamada Cecilia que al parecer esta de ilegal en el país.

Experiencia Agri/Dulce
Yo hice mi reservación en línea, y ahí dice que tenía hasta las 7p.m. para hacer el check-in. Resulta que llegué a las 6:30p.m. y ya le habían dado mi habitación a otra persona. Tuve que esperar que llegara un señor llamado Gerardo quién me empezó a decir que él iba a tener que pagar de su bolsillo la diferencia y hacerme upgrade de habitación para "respetar mi reserva". Yo le dije que inclusive había enviado un mensaje al hotel diciendo mi hora de llegada. Después de casi 30 minutos finalmente me dieron una habitación por una noche, mejor que la que yo había pagado. Esa estuvo muy bien. Al día siguiente fue todo un suplicio cambiarme de habitación. Cerca de otros 40 minutos esperando cual desamparado en el lobby a que llegara éste personaje a ubicarme en otra habitación. Quedé pagando una parte en tarjeta de crédito y otra parte en efectivo directo a él. La segunda habitación era un desastre, tenía luces quemadas, donde se colocaba el papel higiénico se estaba cayendo, el techo con mal acabado, etc. Por el lado plus, excelente piscina (aunque no la usé) y gran ubicación.
