I can't say the place isn't nice, in fact the location is really good: in the middle of Playa's 5th Ave., with shops, restaurants, and clubs in front and all around. The hotel's beach club is just a block away. At night they have this amazing fire show with dancers. We couldn't sleep the two nights we stayed there, the... More

This is the worst hotel I've ever stayed in. My husband and I love boutique hotels and usually are very pleased, but this was like staying in a cheap college apartment from the 1980's. Our room was not clean (huge dust bunnies on the floor and on the fans, the sheets had stains on them, and it seemed like the... More

Good location. Might hear some noise out of 5th Ave. but still quiet. Got their beachclub just two blocks away if you want to party! Enjoyed a lot! More

This is very much still a work in progress. This was the site of the Playasia restaurant and the Blue Parrot is now reorganising its accommodation for 2012 on two sites, having demolished the rooms around the beach club itself. The rooms are of the quality one would expect, but there is no wi-fi and the reception is not manned... More

I stayed there couple of nights in 2009, and I can only remember of the nice breakfast and beach staff during the day. Everything else was mediocre besides the room isolation which was just... not existing. We could hear every single noise from the court, other rooms or street: and being a party area I let you guess how long... More

This was our 2nd time in as many years on a daily excursion to Playa from our nearby resort. We loved the beaches last year so decided to spend a day lounging on one of their chairs while we drank some of the best pina coladas in the area. Most of the beach area has been washed away so the... More

Blue Parrot hotel itself is ok. The first room they gave us was a disaster but they were accommodating and switched us right away to a decent and clean room. It was spacious and had all basic ammenities. The reception desk was unusually always closed (only open around 9am til 10pm)... but nonetheless they took care of us. The BEST... More

If you're staying in downtown playa del carmen, this is probably one of your better choices. It's a good value, rooms are fairly clean, pretty basic. The pool at the suites location is nice to look at, but not practical for swimming. But that's what the beach is there for anyways. And if you wanted a huge pool with a... More

Be careful with the staff of this place. We were a party of 8 people and asked for 8 cocktails, the gave us 6 cocktails without alcohol and 2 with alcohol. They assume we were drunk and we were not going to notice that they were stealing us selling drinks without alcohol. We were very polite asking the waiter to... More

Great location, great service from the hotel staff but not from the beach club staff. Beach club entrance and breakfast was included so that was great. Enjoyed the club! Staff at club is money hungry therefor you will not get treated well unless you blow money. Would not recommend sharing room with another couple or anyone you're not comfortable seeing... More
