Girl’s Trip 2019
What a great resort. Service was excellent. The rooms were a little older than expected but they are very well kept. The beach is absolutely gorgeous. There was a little problem with seaweed but they worked on that endlessly every day!
We absolutely loved our time at Sandos Playacar. We stayed on resort the whole time and all the food and drinks were great. It was truly an all-inclusive experience, we didn't need to purchase anything else! I am a picky eater and everything was great. We loved the adults only pool and beach area; it was easy to find a spot to relax. The weather was great in early November also. They had a nature part of the resort with cats! I thought it was the cutest thing. It was also very close to some other attractions if you want to go off-resort, and easy to get a cab, though there was so much to do that you definitely don't need to go off the resort to have fun. The shows were also super fun - I thought they would be super cheesy (and they were a little bit) but they were really fun to watch. I recommend earplugs! We would absolutely stay here again, and book through cheapcaribbean. Our only possible complaint was with our room - it was hot and the AC filled up with water a lot, so we had to dump the tray often.

Sandos Playacar in Playa del Carmen3 answers
Can someone please tell me ASAP: At the Sandos Playacar Beach Resort in Playa del Carmen, are the RIVIERA JR. SUITES in the NEWER building and is this building the FARTHEST from everything? Also, where are the HACIENDA JR. SUITES? Does anyone know?
I have a trip scheduled to the Sandos Playacar on July 17, 2011 just around the corner and I sure would love to know this before I leave.
Thanks!

The Riviera Junior Suites and Hacienda Junior Suites are located throughout the resort in 12 two-story buildings, with 10 rooms in each building. You can request a specific building upon check in, but there is no guarantee as to the exactl location of your room.
KristinCC
The suites are far away the rooms close to the ocean are the standard room
DiverDan36
Riviera Jr suites - not sure
Hacienda suites - Are in the middle of the complex (about a 3 min walk to the beach). Fyi, didn't look inside these, but they looked very nice from the outside.

What is the "disco" like and how do you dress?3 answers
7 years, 93 months ago
April
The disco has a variety of ages and is all about the dancing and hanging out with other guests. You may dress nicely or a little laid back if you wish.
DanielleCC
The young people like it, I have been once and had fun, the music is good, and people dress how they want, dressed up or down.

The disco is very small but if you are under 30 you might enjoy it ...late night place to hang out and drink and dance.
Any attire works.

18
Beachin1
I don't think they checked IDs, but suspect wristbands may identify those who are underage. The Disco is awful. They played a bunch of techno music from Argentina. The place had a really funky smell and the DJ didn't know what he was doing. There were times where there was long periods of silence between songs because the DJ was missing in action.
evilrabbit
I don't know as there was a specific age as they didn't sell alcohol in there - my guess is 18 yrs or older.

Sandos Playacar is located only 7-10 minutes from downtown Playa Del Carmen.
ccsusan1
by cab - 5 minutes. By foot - 30 minutes. By bike - 12-15 minutes.
jsbalentine
You will need to take a cab into town or over to the Avenues. There is a sweet litte plaza within walking distance or a fun bike ride from the resort. Nothing else is close enough to walk unless you are a marathon walker. Plan a day to go into the different shopping areas.

it is 5 minutes away by taxi and within walking distance.

Is gratuity included?6 answers

Spokane
Taxes and gratuity are included in the total package price, however, it is certainly your prerogative if you would like to tip any staff members at the resort.
MariaCC
yes
pittpanther1
yes it is, however, the staff works really hard and never expects a tip, but it is good to give them a dollar every once in a while for the wonderful service with a smile you receive.
doublenickletraveler
Yes, but the staff appreciate extra tips though no one tips much since you don't carry money
Brb1
It is customary to tip the bell boys when they get your luggage, but beyond that, nothing else is expected .
blairgentry
They say they are in an all-inclusive, but the staff works really hard & it's always appreciated when you give them tips when deserved.

Are premium drinks included?5 answers
6 years, 84 months ago
Virginia Beach
The All Inclusive Plan includes unlimited domestic beer, domestic & international wine and cocktails.
MariaCC
Yes and no! You can request certain brands, but they don't offer the premium brands at all the bars. There IS a club you can join where you get the top shelf stuff.
GypsyJackie
I think it depends on the type of room you book. There are lounges in both lobby's with the highest end liquors but all bars have really good name brand liquor.
doublenickletraveler
There is a cost if you want something from the top shelf. If you upgrade your room to Black bands then there is not, but you will spend a lot of your time riding a van or golf cart back and forth to your room.
blairgentry
Not really. You might get some better quality drinks if you stay in the adults only section

Is it possible to make reservations at the resorts restaurants online before going?4 answers
6 years, 80 months ago
Illinois
Majority of resorts do not allow restaurant reservations to be made prior to check in. Please contact the resort directly for more information.
CaitlinCC
I'm not sure but they have places where you can go and eat without recervations inside the hotel. Also, the Meeting point thats where you go and reserve. Try the Janeiro Brazilian Restaurant you will love it.
Chrirosa
the reservations need to be made at the resort, but it is no problem, we call from our room to make the reservations.
doublenickletraveler
I'm not sure about online, but you definitely will want to make reservations 1 week before arriving. They will turn you away if you do not have a reservation. I suggest the French to be one of the restaurant you try. Brazilian didn't have much taste and was a bit dry.

I wish I had my pictures here so i could show you. also do the parasailing and snorkeling ask for Nacho the tour guide when you go snorkeling he is the best.
Chrirosa
You can rent them right at the beach. I do not know what the rate is however. They also have catamarans, kayaks, parasailing and kite surfing.
Playafun
There are jet ski rentals and parasail right on the beach. It is an additional cost. It is not part of the resort. The driver has to be at least 16 and have an adult with him on the jet ski unless he is over 18. It was about $60 for 1/2 hour. The rental company there was named Scuba Libre
Travellingfamily
yes, the beach area has a waverunner/parasailing company you can rent from. 30 minutes for $55 for waverunner. $60 for para sailing.

It is. All of the resorts in Playacar have beachfront areas. The properties are long and narrow , so they maybe hike from the beach.
SaraSorensen
Yes sandos is on the beach that resort is next to it not in front
justj8125
yes it is... it is in the Playacar area and is 5 minutes from the town of Play del Carmin and the resort sits on a beautiful stretch of beach
doublenickletraveler
It most certainly is on the beach. The resort is situated as a longer than wide so the further back your room, the longer the walk to the most awesome beach ever. Iberostar is next to Sandos.
Koyjam
The resort is right on the beach. The Iberostar is not in front of it.
Brb1
The resort is on the beach although the rooms face the pool or the jungle.
bwalker5070
Yes, it is on the beach! If you are facing the ocean, there is nothing but vegetation on the right. This resort you reference must be on the left...a side we did not frequent as the "adults only" side of the beach was on the left.

This hotel is All-Inclusive.
Features include:
•Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, including 24-hour room services
•Unlimited domestic alcoholic beverages and soft drinks
•Non-motorized water sports
•Kid's club and Teen's club
•Taxes and service charges
For additional information, please contact the resort directly. Some amenities and restaurants are only available for guests booked into the Select Club Adults-Only room categories.
AlixCC
Room service comes into the room 4-5 times a day; it was off-putting for us to have our personal belongings removed from a bed that has been made to hanging over the couch
PeanutButters
you are issued a wrist band, and that is it. Each type of reservation (adult, family, ect) has their own color wrist band.
doublenickletraveler
When you check in you get a bracelet. There are different color bracelets that provides different service. Blue is the basic i believe and from what i can notice it more than enough. No room key or ID needed. The staff will see the bracelet and you are good to go. Basically the other bracelets allows you to access premium alcohol at designated area and the cabana by the beach/pool. I saw no need to upgrade bracelet.
You will need to make reservations about 1 week ahead if you plan to dine at their a la carte restaurants though. If you do not have reservations you will be turned away. Check on the resort site for menu and different restaurants. I suggest the French to be one of the a la carte. My GF and I liked that the most.
beachguy1
This all inclusive resort is simple- when you check in, they give you a wrist band to keep on the whole time you stay. You are open to go into any of their buffets and bars anytime, no cash required (however we tipped when we thought service was great, or if they added a little extra alcohol into our drinks). Depending on how many nights you stay, they offer a variety of A La Carte restaurants, we only stayed 4 nights, so we had 1 opportunity. You make a reservation at the hotel lobby/guest services for an available time and when you have dinner no cash is required (but we did tip them). They also have lots of activities like a gym, a night club, game rooms, a mini golf course, bicycles, tennis court, archery court and a few more things that are all included.

As Cheap Caribbean has no affiliation with the spa, please contact the resort directly for inquiries regarding the spa or spa pricing
AlixCC
Depends on the type of service, but for a massage it was about $80 usd for 55 minutes from what I saw when I was there.
beachguy1
spa services are kind of expensive but definitely a highlight of the resort! We got the moonlight couples massage is was 250 that included an hour massage then 30 mins in Jacuzzi tub with chocolate covered strawberries and champagne. It was definitely worth it! Hope this helps a little
jenlb
We paid $120 for a 50 min massage. you can get a one hour massage down town for $27. plus a $14 round trip taxi fare. But hey, you can shop and enjoy all that is going on there too. Its fun!

Mimi
Please contact the resort directly for this information. They are best able to assist you with questions regarding upkeep, maintenance and renovations.
AlixCC
The resort was hit by a hurricane and tore thing up about 10 years ago. they have really got the grounds looking great, the pool excellent, and the beach, unbeatable. The rooms are not kept up as they should have been. The beds are hard, the furniture is scuffed up pretty good, and the lamps had mildew on them. They offer an upgrade for their newer rooms, but they are too far away from the pool and beach. You have to hop a van to take you to that area.
blairgentry
Sandos purchased an older resort and they have constantly been making upgrades to it. The adults only section was the first part to be remodeled and is currently in the process of being remodeled again.

Room service is included but the room service menu is very limited
Brb1
Included though we didn't use it as the adult section had close buffets.
PackNWTraveler
They told us it was included, but since we could never get through to them (only busy signals regardless of time of day or night) it was not much good.
Beachin1
Room service was included for free with a menu that was limited, but still good variety. Tips aren't included or expected, but are well deserved by the hotel personnel!

Yes, the room service is available, they have a menu of it but it is limited in selection. We ordered in room service the day we had to go to the airport very early and it was delivered on time and food was very fresh.

Hi Rox, yes there is shopping within walking distance of the hotel. Actually it is a very nice walk in the evenings. It is only a small amount of shops and the prices are not as good as taking the cab down town to 5th ave shopping. The price for a cab one way is $7
blairgentry
You can walk (around 25 minute walk) or take a taxi for about $7 into town (5th Ave). There is a lot of shopping there. There is also a nearby Walmart and Sams club, which I recommend you go if you want to buy alcohol to take home... all the places on 5th Avenue charge what you would pay in the states.

There is a small shopping area within a 10 minute walk. You can also take a 15 minute taxi ride into Playa del Carmen.

This resort has 3 bars that are open late in to the evening and offers nightly entertainment. It is also a short distance from Playa del Carmen, which is considered a safe town and many travelers go there to enjoy the nightlife.
BethCC
Hi New York, feel safe about walking around at night. You are in a gated community called Play Carr. We felt safe even walking around in town in the shopping district of 5th avenue.
The shows we saw were not very good. They have a couple of group participation shows that were not bad.
Didn't see any action happening at the disco though.
Hope this helped.
blairgentry
nightly entertainment is nice. did not go to disco so wont comment. Playa del carmin is relatively safe. Just remember you are in a foriegn country and act appropriately. You can easily catch a cab from sandos to playa del carmin for 6 or 7 us dollars and a return cab is very easy to find.
shopping on 5th ave is good and everything is negotiable. Dont miss the mayan dancers beside the ferry terminal.

Playa Del Carmen is one of the most popular beach destinations in Mexico! They do have the white powdery sand beach you are looking for, however, the water is clear, but it tends to be more turquoise blue closer to Cancun.

Travel usually can't be booked more than a year in advance. A deposit option can be set up for most packages, where a certain down payment is required up front and the final balance is due 21 days prior to travel. How you make the payments in between is up to you and wouldn't be automated.

There do tend to be some wandering the property, the amount varies based on the time of year, weather, etc. How this would affect your allergies is entirely dependent upon the severity. However they generally don't wander the more crowded areas.
JeannieCC
No i did not see any cats in the resort. We did see a dog the first day but he disappeared after that.
AlboTraveler87
It wasn't an overwhelming amount of cats. Saw one or two at the pool, some hang around the restaurants.
loohoo060789
There are cats on the grounds. They're not "all over" by any means. Only saw them in one little area designated for them, la Ciudad de Gatos, where they had a little cat house and some stuff to play on, and presumably food. They lounged around there. You might walk by them, but their little home isn't even near any of the hotel sections. Never saw them anywhere else, including pools or the beach.

Just came back from Sandos Playacar this week. The main difference is the location and there are some amenities differences. The Riviera is the farthest from the beach and most of the attractions of the resort (there is a pool there). It's close to the lobby and a couple restaurants, but that's it. The Haciendas are small buildings with maybe 2 (?) suites in each. They're beautiful, very modern, and in a secluded garden type area of the resort. For 7 people, you would basically take a full Hacienda suite and have like 3 rooms- master suite, bedroom, second bath, living/dining area. Would probably be nicer than two separate rooms. These are between the Riviera section and main beach section of the resort. Each has a private small pool and a jacuzzi. Can't speak to the price difference but hope that helps.

Sorry I dont know. You can call their toll free number

Where are the riviera junior suites in the family section actually located with comparison to the beach, the standard rooms, and the reception area?5 answers
2 years, 25 months ago
JoJoPiccoloPlayer
For a full resort map to see where all of the different buildings are located, please contact the resort directly.
JeannieCC
You can get a riviera junior suite by the Beach area or in the family area (close to the main lobby), which is next to the adult area. The adult area is at the end of resort. You will have about 15 min walk from the beach. Then there is a family area around the lobby. There are three restaurants there, Asian, Brazilian and Steak House at the ground level.
Then there is a VIP area with villas, Jacuzzi and private pools.
Then it's the beach area where is the main pool, buffet, bars and the rest of restaurants.
Petro
OK I'll try to write out a map for you. The resort is organized West to East, with the Beach on the far East side of course and the lobby at the West end. The Riviera is closest to the lobby on the west side, then the Haciendas in the middle, then the Gran Plaza, Spa, most of the restaurants, stuff to do etc., then the Beach Section closest to the beach. So the Riviera junior suites are probably a 10-15 min walk to the beach. They also have shuttles going pretty regularly back and forth from the Riviera/Lobby to the Plaza/Beach, we usually walked. Hope that helps.

The family section is back away from the beach next to the main lobby
