After many years, now a disappointment
RNTravelRuby on May 15, 2025
Well, after coming to Paradisus Playa del Carmen 6 or 7 times in the last 10 years this will unfortunately be our last visit. Every year we have come and gotten a swim up room with our two kids and my mother in law with the family concierge. A few things that have definitely changed for the worse- The pirate ship pool is one of the main attractions for young kids and really the center of the family side of the resort. My kids love it. We found out 2 days into our stay it would be closed for the next 2 weeks or so. I understand that things need to be closed for maintenance, but I think they should have communicated this to guests who had booked here during that time. We could have easily moved our dates but they didn’t bother to let anyone know. Not only that, they were doing a lot of grout work and sanding, plus painting, so we’ve been breathing that in all week. Not great. The family concierge used to be a great service that felt very personal and worth the extra money. We have not met our concierge in person once this entire week. The first day he eventually texted us on WhatsApp several hours after our arrival which was disappointing because it was too late to make dinner reservations for that night. We tried to make them up at the dinner reservation desk but they told us to contact our family concierge who was nowhere to be found. Basically all he’s done for us this week is book the rest of our dinner reservations and that’s it. Kind of a bummer. The beach is totally unusable. It’s sargassum season so I’d expect that but we came in January a few years ago and it was the same, so I guess you just can’t go to the beach here anymore. The activity crew and activities for kids seem kind of lame now. Last year they had mermaids swimming, a hamster ball for the pool, piñatas, tons of fun stuff. This year all they’ve done is lead some games out at the pool. Today they had a magic carpet thing that was cool but that’s about it. Pretty big bummer considering the pirate ship pool and beach are out of commission. Just so many upsells- trying to get you to buy coconuts, pictures, wine, alcohol. At night they have vendors set up in the halls who basically scam you. We’ve been here SO MANY times and they even made us pay extra to get the room we had originally requested and I’m pretty sure was the one we booked from the start (the name of the room on the reservation was vague so they could say it was either one). Positives: the staff are all excellent. All the servers, bartenders, cleaning staff, etc. are so lovely and helpful. The kids club is exceptional. The staff there remember my kids year after year and are so kind and my kids love going. The spa was wonderful.

Alfonso and Darlene at the Nube margarita bar are the best bartenders in the whole resort hands down without a doubt. The drinks they make are amazing and they are true masters of their craft. They are kind and super pleasant to be around. I hope you have the pleasure of experiencing the two of them.
