Avie Barron
We love our family vacations here at Sandos! Our favorite restaurant is at the the Royal Elite breakfast for members only. Eddie, Rodolfo and Marcela our FAVORITE servers! They greet us every morning, make sure they are attentive and that everything is to our liking. They are wonderful at helping us try new things and truly make our mornings as special as it can be to help set the tone for the day. The rooms are spacious and always clean. The rates are so affordable which makes Sandos an easy choice for our family to come back year after year!

We had the best hostess named Janet at lunch in the Rivera Blue pool area. She went out of her way to help us get something not on the food bar. She was incredibly nice and helpful. Love her!

Great Family-Friendly All-Inclusive Experience! We stayed at Sandos Playacar for 8 days and had a great overall experience. Check-in and check-out were quick and easy, which helped us start and end our trip stress-free. The staff was friendly and helpful, and we enjoyed the variety of food, entertaining night shows, clean beach (even during seaweed season), and the peaceful walking paths and pools. The family-friendly vibe throughout the resort really stood out. One thing to keep in mind: the specialty restaurants require reservations, and availability is limited, so it’s best to book them as soon as you check in. If you don’t reserve in time, you can always enjoy dinner at the main buffet, which stays open until 10:30 p.m., or head to the taco spot that serves until 11 p.m. The barbacoa and cochinita pibil tacos there are amazing! Also, the coffee spot is open until 11 pm and besides drinks they got lots of pastries too! As for the rooms, they’re decent but could use some upgrades. We would have preferred a more modern design, central air conditioning instead of a mini split, and less humidity overall. Also, the room service menu is quite limited, and it would be a nice touch to include snacks like chips or cookies in the rooms or have them more available throughout the resort. All things considered, we highly recommend Sandos Playacar for anyone looking for a well-rounded, all-inclusive resort in Playa del Carmen with great service, beautiful grounds, and plenty of family-friendly activities.
John Williams
Rooms are rated 4 only because they are old. They still sleep and shower very well. As Royal Elite members we had breakfast most mornings at the French restaurant instead of the buffet. Juan, Karen, David and Erick were great! Attentive, helpful and funny! Love this breakfast spot. At the Ocean Snack location near the beach, are favorite servers are Jesus and Samuel. But truly everyone has been fabulous. You can’t control the weather or the sargassum, but they do everything they can to ensure a great stay.
Travis Smart
Ian from the bike area gave exceptional serviced everyday! My family and I rode bikes almost everyday and we were always greeted by him and his friendliness. Sandos gets a 10/10 and I’m so happy with our choice of resorts! Beautiful and clean facilities! All workers go above and beyond in everything they do! Great resort but even better service and workers!
