often no hot water, fresh towels only 6 times in 14 days, same food every day, saw a rat, nothing is level and tripped all the time, no hand rails. Only 2 of the pools had ladders to enter and exit. We did not drink there alcohol as the rum was "on tap" bought our own. No lounge to visit... More

Do not stay here,it could ruin your life! Bed bugs are very hard to get rid of and can stay dormit for one year. You pretty much have to wash every piece of clothing you own and be willing to throw some furniture away in order to get rid of them along with paying for an exterminator. Went through it... More

This is how it went down.. So we arrived from the airport, a woman came out and welcomed us, very friendly. She said to let her... More

Well well well. Even thought I read some horrendous reviews about Dos Playas I decided to give it a try because quite frankly, the price was very reasonable. I stayed there for four days and I wasn’t disappointed and didn’t regret staying there. I was warned that the housekeepers go through your personal things and money gets stolen. I left... More

It was perfect for those who prefer a smaller more intimate setting. Super budget-friendly. Really special staff who remember you and make you feel increadibly welcome. More auhtentic... More

Dos Playas in Cancun is a smaller, less flashy type of resort. However, it was exceptionally clean and the service we experienced was top notch. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. There were people from all over the world staying there and the smaller, more intimate atmosphere of the resort made it very easy to sit by the pool and... More
