Definitely not 5 star rating but no worse than a 4
June 17-24th 2025 Eden room (4255) Food- Buffett provided a large variety of decent quality food. Best to go within the hour of it opening to get the best experience. It is worth mentioning however that my partner and I have had an extended episode of travellers diarrhoea most likely due to the food or potentially water and ice. We are both equally surprised by this as we are very cautious and would urge anyone staying here to take the caution when eating seafood,fruit ect… Room- very spacious, Air conditioning worked perfectly, fairly clean but the sofa was filthy as was the balcony which also had a poor view. Service- service on the whole was definitely as expected for a 4.5/5 star hotel. Staff within all bars and restaurants were friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately a cleaner had stolen one of our AirPods and as we’ve read on here this isn’t an isolated incident so it definitely impacts the 5 star rating as you shouldn’t have to be on eggshells in your own hotel room. Facilities- if there was anything that definitely warrants the 5 star rating it’s this. Plenty of entertainment ( free bowling, an arcade, regular evening shows) . Only 3/5 pools were available to us in Eden however the Eden pool and beach pool were both great. The gym and tennis courts were also high quality. The main lobby is probably the best facility due to the spaciousness alongside the main bar in the middle and piano bar. Buggy’s that ran every 5/10 minutes to and from the beach were a very convenient feature. Overall the stay at ORP did mildly meet expectations mostly due to the facilities and service, however I do believe the 5 star rating along with the £1285 is steep for the experience. I would say that the ORP is better than its neighbour Princess in most regards other than the beach due to natural corrosion, however this is not something in the hotels control.

Our Holiday - May 2025
Enjoyed our stay very much, it is the second time to this hotel. Staff are very friendly, the bar tender who brought our drinks daily at the pool ‘Irene’ was truly wonderful. She was walking backwards and forwards in the scorching heat all day getting everyone their drink requests and aways did it with a smile. She is a real asset to this hotel. The breakfast was plentiful and catered for all tastes. The buffet lunch was also good but the evening buffet was really not great. Food not warm, not much choice. We opted to booking the restaurants, one in particular is the Sports Bar, food was lovely. Overall a great holiday and great people. Thank you

Worst’s place to stay in.
AVOID STAYING HERE!! I chose this hotel specifically for its adult-only atmosphere, but I was disappointed to find that all the common areas are shared with the family section. The food was subpar, with few healthy options available. Additionally, the hotel looks nothing like the pictures, leading to a significant letdown overall. I won't be returning here, as there are many beautiful alternatives in Playa del Carmen that I would recommend instead.
