Hotels in der Nähe von Isla Ceiba, Playa del Carmen

Ich würde dieses Hotel nicht empfehlen. Es gab keine Wasserversorgung im Zimmer und keine Stromversorgung im Gemeindebereich (was bedeutet keine Aufzug) für unsere letzte Nacht. Wir müssen unsere schweren Gepäck auf die Treppen abnehmen, um herauszuchecken. Der Empfänger versprach, das Geld für letzte Nacht zurückzuzahlen, aber unser Buchungsagent sagte, das Hotel ist nicht erreichbar, da sie nie auf Telefongespräche oder E-Mails antworten, so dass unsere Rückzahlungsanfrage noch in Betracht gezogen ist. Das Hotel hat sich verpflichtet, sofort unsere Rückzahlung vorzunehmen, aber das ist natürlich nicht der Fall. Ich bin wirklich enttäuscht über meinen Aufenthalt.

Das Hotel ist gut, das Frühstück ist OK, aber ich fühle mich nicht als vier Sternen, Samsung sind ähnlich. Und super nass, auch die Papierkisten im Schlafzimmer sind nass, das heißt, sie haben ein nasshaftes Gefühl. Das gesamte Zimmer ist nass und fühlt sich sehr unbehaglich an. Der Service ist immer noch gut, die Handtücher sind im Bad und es wird weniger als zehn Minuten gerufen, um jemand zu reparieren.

This place is nowhere near Paradise! Nightmare is far more like it. Let's start with the room inclusion list: Blackout curtains - YES; Air conditioning - YES; Desk - YES but I had to use the desk for my suitcase as there was nowhere else to put; Private balcony - YES there was a balcony but private? NO! All balconies had full sight of every other balcony left and right; Safe - YES; Refrigerator - NO; Flatscreen TV - YES; Complimentary toiletries - YES I suppose so, if you count two different sample size types of soap and two shower caps; Telephone - NO; Bottled water - NO. I will add to the list - Towels - YES but please see photo of the towel I was provided; Bath Mat - NO; Hand Towel - NO; Cups or Glasses - NO and was told at Reception when checking in that they don't provide either of those or water! However we were advised that we couldn't drink the tap water and told that we could walk a block to buy some water! Breakfast - now this was a doozy! Some sort of cordial water and Americano coffee were included but if you wanted milk you had to pay extra! There were three included options - scrambled eggs (not served with anything else), mixed potatoes and beans or fruit platter. I ordered the fruit platter which was served with a slice of toast, no butter and two tiny pieces of watermelon, two small slices of banana and two tiny pieces of paw paw. See pic which shows the fruit platter served on a dinner plate. They also have the hide to say there is a restaurant on site! More like a third rate cafeteria. The room itself was old and had quite a bit of damage to tiles, walls etc. It was very dark as the lighting was extremely poor. Some of the furniture was broken and the small night light was enclosed in a plastic case that was broken with wires on display! This is probably a place for backpackers who are happy to rough it - not for people who are used to a far better standard. We had been in Mexico for two weeks by the time we arrived at the nightmare, and at every other hotel, there were people to help with suitcases. Not here, just one person on duty for the whole hotel! The only good thing about the place was when we were leaving, there were two women cleaners who offered to help us (two women in their 70s) with carrying our suitcases down two long flights of stairs. We were very grateful and think, and are happy about it, that perhaps the tip we gave them was about a week's wages!

Das ist unglaublich. Ausgezeichnete Lage, das Personal ist sehr nett und lächelnd . Les repas sont d'une qualité remarquable !

Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut, Einkaufsstraße ist in der Nähe, 5 Minuten zu Fuß zum Strand, es ist ruhig mitten im Trubel, wurde an Freunde empfohlen, die Abtrennung des Balkons ist am besten matt isoliert Wenn die Anforderungen an westliches Essen nicht so hoch sind, ist dieses Frühstücksbuffet noch in Ordnung. Der Kellner ist sehr nett. Ich werde die Initiative ergreifen, um Sie um Getränke und Kaffee zu bitten, und ich werde es für Sie übernehmen. Kann ich natürlich auch selber nehmen. Ich liebe westliches Frühstück, also fühlt es sich sehr zufrieden an?

This was our second vacation trip to the Xcaret Mexico hotel. We really enjoyed the ”ALL fun inclusive” experience, with exclusive transportation and access to ALL Xcaret group parks. We were a family group of 5 rooms, with combination of adults, and adults/children in several of the rooms/suites. We had two concierge services representatives (K.C. and Laura), and they were very attentive and accommodating to our needs, requiring two suite changes to better suit our needs. They also helped us with the restaurants' and parks' reservations (for those which required it), and also with the wheel chair arrangements for my mother-in-law. The restaurants are big, and even though the hotel was fully occupied, we did not feel crowded or had to make lines to enter the restaurants. A most do is the Sunday brunch at the ”Las Cuevas” restaurant. Their meat and seafood offerings were way above what I was expecting, with even a Tuna processing experience made by the chef, ending in a delicious Tuna tartar appetizer. My wife is FULLY vegan (I am not), and we went to their vegan restaurant ”Bio”, and were able to taste almost ALL of their breakfast and lunch menu offerings, with every one having its own palate pleasing taste. Add to that their freshly pressed juices shots, and specialty frozen shakes. By the third day, Xiomara greeted us by our names, and waiter Edgar had known what we already tasted, and ”took care” of us. Kudos to both of them, for understanding and living a true ”costumer service”. This hotel is so well designed, that even there were live bands throughout the lobby and infinity pool areas, the volume was not overwhelming, and you can relax at another area, without it bothering you. Each restaurant had some special drinks, which you can enjoy, so make sure you ask the waiter for the ”special cocktail” of the day. We witnessed two ”destination weddings”, and the open area activities did no interfere with our time to enjoy the hotel amenities, so thank you for that. We even enjoyed another ”shot” of ”free” mariachi's songs while walking near them. On Sunday, we were able to enjoy catholic Sunday mass at the Xpiral chapel. All in all, my family and us had a blast, with ”not enough time” reviews from each and every one of them. We plan on coming back and visit some of the park attractions we did not have time to try, as well as enjoy again the amenities this hotel has to offer its guests. The weather was hot and humid, as it has been in every place in the world at this latitute. Be prepared and drink lots of water! ¡Muchas gracias por poner sus corazones al servicio de sus huéspedes! (”Thanks for putting your hearts into your guests services”).

Wir waren unglaublich enttäuscht über dieses Hotel, es sieht 5 Sternen aus, aber die Erfahrung ist nicht. Wir blieben im Juli 2024. Auf der Eincheckung dauerte der gesamte Prozess über eine Stunde, weil sie unsere Buchung für August abgelegt hatten...nicht für Juli. Das war endlich gelöst und wir wurden für ein paar Stunden einen „vorübergehenden“ Raum gegeben. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt waren wir verstanden - diese Dinge passieren und sie bieten eine Lösung. Der Mann auf der Kontrolle war angenehm, aber unglaublich langsam. Wir haben 4 Nächte geblieben und es gibt keinen Zweifel, dass die Lage wunderbar ist und die Zimmer waren wunderschön - obwohl das Frühstück (einschließlich) war grausam und fehlte an den Grundstücken. Brötchen, aber kein Butter oder Schalen usw., wir mussten jedes Mal und oft mehr als ein Mitarbeiter fragen, um es zu bekommen - oft über 20 Minuten. Einen Tag gab es überhaupt kein Buffet, aber niemand konnte erklären, warum. Sie konnten 2 von den 3 verbleibenden Gerichten im Menü bestellen, aber Sie wurden nur eine pro Person erlaubt. Ich hatte Pancakes, aber dann hatte ich das gleiche Fiasko, dass sie mit keinem Sirup kamen und ich musste 2 Mitarbeiter fragen und warten 20 Minuten, um es endlich zu erhalten. Am Samstag Abend haben wir dort geblieben, das Hotel beschlossen, eine Party bis 2.00 Uhr zu werfen.... Unglücklicherweise wurden die Gäste nicht eingeladen oder informiert, so dass wir für mehrere Stunden in unserem Zimmer wach gehalten. Ich ging zur Rezeption, um sich zu beschweren und wurde einem Manager gesagt, dass er morgens mit mir reden würde.. unnötig zu sagen, dass sie nicht. Die Adresse der Hotels ist in der Nähe von der Stadt. Wenn sie Hotelgäste eingeladen und ein Getränk im Haus oder etwas entlang dieser Linien angeboten hätten, wäre es viel sinnvoller. Die gesamte Erfahrung war völlig bizarr und nicht wert der Preis, den sie bezahlten. Ich würde diese Art von Service von einem günstigen örtlichen Gasthaus erwarten, nicht einem 5-Sterne-Resort. Das Personal war überhaupt nicht unbehaglich, aber schlecht organisiert und fehlt an grundlegender Kommunikation.

I was spied on in the shower by a hotel employee, and management tried to cover it up. It wasn’t until we involved the police that they became cooperative. What happened? Look at the photos, and you’ll see a sliding window in the shower that opens to a hallway closet. While I was showering, I looked up and saw a man’s face in the window, watching me. I screamed, grabbed a towel, and ran out to the hallway. When I opened the closet next to my room, I found that same man wearing a hotel uniform, trying to climb down from the window that overlooks my shower. He tried to push past me, but I caught him by the sleeve and took his radio. I shouted for help, and he said over and over, “Please, don’t tell.” Other guests arrived to assist me, and started taking photos and video of the scene. The desk clerk named Angel came upstairs and initially claimed that he’d told the pervert peeping tom named Vicktor to get a broom from that closet. Observe from the photo that this is not a utility closet, and is empty except for pipes. We also found footholds carved into the cinderblock beneath the shower window. Once we pointed out the falsehood of his claim, Angel then said that Vicktor was never in the closet, that it’s his word against mine. Angel refused to call the hotel manager, and then refused to call the police. He took Victor to the office behind the hotel desk, and we saw him on his phone, smiling and laughing. Members of my group called the police and contacted the hotel owner Gilberto, who said he would come in 2 hours because he was not nearby. I give credit to the local police in Cozumel, who responded quickly, and also called their supervisor to the scene, who took our reports and investigated the closet. We discovered that many rooms, on all four floors of the hotel, have these fake utility closets with windows opening to the shower. None of the closets were locked, and only women had been assigned to these rooms by the front desk clerk. When the owner Gilberto arrived, he initially denied everything, then once the police sergeant supervised the interaction, the owner finally conceded that “because it’s bad for business,” he would repair the shower windows and lock the closets, and he also said Vicktor the peeping tom would be terminated. However Gilberto the owner denied that Angel the desk clerk had any part in covering up the incident or funneling female guests to those rooms. I was very concerned about what appeared to be a serious safety and privacy problem—who knows many staff are involved in their peeping tom operation and how long they’ve been doing it? How young are their victims? Are they taking photos and video too? I’ve never felt so violated and disgusted. There are plenty of nice places to stay in Cozumel, go someplace that takes the privacy and safety of their guests seriously.

Celeste, the manager was always available within healthy boundary hours. She is available to reach with her WhatsApp contract. She will help you with any question you have. The clientele is a mix of older and younger people when I was there. From Mid-20s to late-60s (retirees, digital nomads, scuba diving tourists and fanatics, couples, families (no children, just young adults), and people on sabbaticals). The space was clean and well maintained. There were a few off pieces like the door frame to room was off alignment. The furniture was dinged and scraped in many places. There was a missing large carpet that was shown in the pics but overall most of what you see in the pictures are true but somewhat outdated. As with almost every property in Mexico in the hospitality industry the current reality is not exactly matching with the past photo albums presented on their websites. People come and go and as a consequence the place gets some wear and tear through the process. So don’t expect everything to look as nice as the photos. Despite these small things, the bikes are decent for rental and you can get almost anywhere on the island in 2 hours. The neighborhood is safe. There is a gym across the street and many restaurants nearby. The guests are respectful, kind and friendly. The staff are polite, helpful and flexible. With all that said, I definitely recommend this space.
