The staff was wonderful about coordinating airport shuttle pick up and drop off. Sandra, was always very responsive and helpful. The staff did upgrade us from a Standard Room to a much larger room. It was spacious. However, we were disappointed for several reasons. -The water did not get hot. It barely got to room temperature. We reported it to the front desk but it did not get any better. Showering here sucked. -They do not provide any comforter, just a thin sheet. -The rooms are not soundproofed. There are several clubs on either side of the hotel. If you're counting on a good night's rest for an early tour to Chichen Itza, you can forget about it. -We returned to our room with the door wide open two days in a row. The first time it happened, we thought maybe we didn't shut the door good when we left. The following day, we conscientiously shut the door making sure it locked behind us. Low and behold, when we returned in the evening, the door was wide open again. My husband immediately reported it to the front desk and security who said they would speak with housekeeping. Luckily nothing was missing. Unlike other 4 star hotels, we noticed this hotel did not provide a blowdryer, robes, houseslippers and wash cloths.

The balcony door was broken so it was highly unsafe especially with all the sensitive document with me. The water wasn’t hot for almost 20 minutes leaving us highly uncomfortable. Water you can work with but lack of safety forces me to ask for a reimbursement. Kindly refund the amount as it was highly inconvenient for us to carry our stuff around the city and it was a big liability and huge inconvenience.

The palm is one of the best locations in playa del Carmen. It’s a short walk to the gorgeous beaches of playacar, nightlife and restaurants are right outside the door, and it’s close to public transportation. The hotel is clean and basic, but comfortable and all one needs for a great time. Make sure to check out happy hour on the rooftop deck. The staff are welcoming and kind!

It was a little less than great service. The pool had a booger or something in it that the staff took their time to take out. The breakfast only had three options. When we arrived we had to have the shower changed because it didn’t work. One night we also took of the sheets and their was a blood stain on the mattress cover. But it was really close to everything. Great location. The rooftop pool was nice and the room is very spacious.
