  Great family resort!

  Our family of 8 went to this resort early January. We had 3 generations on this trip and I cannot recommend this resort enough. Four of us 8 had been here prior, in April 2024. Right from the start we were warmly welcomed by staff. Check in went smoothly, especially given we had only booked an hour prior after leaving another resort. The property itself was beautifully maintained, the rooms were clean and decently sized and the staff were fantastic. The dinner reservation desk was very helpful in finding us times that worked for our family of 8, I recommend booking all your dinners when you check in. As far as the daily activities go, there was always something special. Whether its extra snacks by the pool, face painting for kids, or a market in the lobby there was something for everyone. We could always find a spot to sit near the pools, or on the beach, no fighting for chairs! The waterpark was perfect for our family, all generations enjoyed it and the fact that it was slightly removed from the main area of the resort was great! It meant we didn't hear the noise and excitement all day and could still relax by the other pools. The restaurants also were great, while the buffet could be considered smaller I found that it meant food was being refreshed more often. The general atmosphere of this resort was very calming, yes there are lots of families here but it's a family resort and Paradisus does a great job catering to those families. We will absolutely be back.

  Fantastic staff and beautiful property! 5 stars for sure!

  Wonderful experience! From the start, we met Victor, aka “Numero Uno” who felt like an instant friend. The kind of person you’d love to meet your family. Excellent English and he loved Mike’s jokes and broken Spanish. ¡A Toda Madre! Great service also from the bell desk giving us golf cart rides: Javier, Antonilin, and one other. Great food choices. Alberto the sushi chef made custom selections and was fun to hang with at the sushi bar! Jesus the bartender was fun too (laughing at Mike’s Sancho joke). Five stars for sure!! The rooms were beautiful and equipped with all you need.

  Memorable Family Stay with Outstanding Concierge Service

  We had a wonderful stay overall and truly enjoyed our time at the resort. The beach was beautiful with plenty of seating, and the team did an amazing job cleaning the seagrass daily. There were always enough chairs available, and the pool was very well maintained. The Family Concierge service was outstanding. Luis was our concierge, and he created so many “moments of delight” for our kids. One of the highlights was when he prepared a bubble bath on our last night. After a full day of excursions, it was absolutely perfect and such a special treat for the kids. The lunchbox service was excellent, and the food was great all around. Our favorite restaurants were Bana Teppanyaki and Cappella. The shows were fun and very kid-friendly, and we loved the added touch of providing popcorn and candy. The resort also has bars conveniently located throughout, offering mid-shelf liquors, which was nice. Our only small complaint regarding adult beverages is that the rooms only provide beer. If you don’t drink beer, you have to walk to a bar to get a drink. That said, it was only about a five-minute walk, so not a major inconvenience. One suggestion for improvement would be the snack place at the beach area. It opens at 10:30 am, and with small kids and families, an earlier opening time would be very helpful, as many families were waiting anxiously for it to open. Another important note: do not book the snorkeling excursion through the vendor near the pool if you have children under 10. We were sold the excursion specifically because our kids wanted to snorkel, but upon arriving at the boat, we were told children under 10 were not allowed to snorkel. This was very disappointing and put a damper on what was supposed to be a highlight for them. Despite these small issues, our experience was fantastic, and the service, especially from the Family Concierge team, truly made our stay memorable.

  Paradise at Paradisus

  Everything about our experience was spectacular, accommodations, the beach/pool experience and the entertainment were all top notch. We were taken care of at every turn. A special shout out to Tiara and Erika who made sure we had what we needed and made our vacation extra special. They were wonderful! The included Cenote Trip was memorable. We’re so glad we chose the Concierge Level for this trip. We hope to return soon.

  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Amazing Family Vacation – Highly Recommend Family Concierge

  We stayed at Paradisus Playa del Carmen with our family and did the Family Concierge with one of the larger rooms, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The resort itself is beautiful, and the Family Concierge service truly made the trip special. Our concierge Eduardo Monroy was outstanding and made everything seamless — from reservations to activities. The restaurants were excellent, with plenty of variety and quality that exceeded expectations for an all-inclusive. The beach was amazing — it felt incredibly tropical and unique, especially with the mangrove forest separating the resort, which made it feel more private and serene. Our kids absolutely loved the water park, and the cenote excursion was a highlight for the whole family — such a memorable and special experience. This resort strikes the perfect balance between luxury and family-friendly fun. We would absolutely return and highly recommend it to families looking for a memorable vacation.
