The Royal Hideaway Playacar is a hotel just for adults, which undoubtedly represents the ideal option for couples wanting to enjoy a romantic break on the Riviera Maya. Royal Hideaway Playacar features 6 restaurants serving international cuisine with à la carte options; the Chef’s Table at Las Ventanas restaurant is particularly outstanding, as it is the only restaurant on the Yucatán peninsula based around interaction with the chef.

Location is very good with white sandy beach without rock. The time we visit there were a lot of see weed but we heard it happened for all Cancun and Riviera Maya area. All the restaurant were very good with 3 course à la carte meal. The service is also excellent. Chairs on the beach are easy to find. The ground in the resort is in manicure condition.

This was our first experience with an all inclusive resort. I can tell you with certainty that we will not go back to any other type of vacation! This resort lived up to expectations and really was a good value. If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing place to recharge then this is your place!

My friends and I came to the Royal Hideaway last year for the first time and had a wonderful experience we booked as soon as we could for this year. We had a great time this year, but unfortunately there were a couple of snags. Many reviews say that the AC units in different suites are often broken and I think it happened in our suite this year. The monitor said it was 22.5C but it felt closer to 24.5C, which was quite uncomfortable at night. The other issue was that we asked not to have any room cleaning during our stay and they came in to clean anyway. Other than that we had a wonderful time at the pool and at dinner each night! The activities during the day and in the evening were fun and engaging! When we come back to Cancun we will definitely stay with Royal Hideaway Playacar again!

Great hotel if you are looking for a boutique style stay. The atmosphere is more subdued and upscale than a "party hotel" but if that is what you are looking for this is it. Not a ton to do in the evening but it's a great place to rekindle romance and getting to know your partner all over again. The staff is phenomenal and Grills restaurant is the only one in front of the beach from all the other hotels we saw up and down the beach. Rooms are a good size and kept very clean. We went in May so there was sargassum on the beach. The hotel did a way better job than any of the other hotels up and down the beach of trying to keep it clean. Unfortunately it is an impossible job but the pool and entertainment staff were excellent. Overall a 4 out of 5.

Second to none. My husband and I stayed here and were so spoiled, it was very very hard to return home. Your every wish is granted and some you didn't even know you wished for. It is sophisticated and elegant with out being stuffy. The food is wonderful. Drinks are all prepared with top-shelf liquors, wines are good to very good, and champagne is always flowing. I could not imagine anyone having any complaints.
