Antera was incredible. Our room was spaceous and the kitchen was very well equipped. The bed was the best hotel bed i have ever slept on for my back. We loved every breakfast, which was included, at the attached restaurant called 'Yum Yum'. It was our morning ritual. The coffee is better than any chain cafe, the fruit was so fresh, and everything was better prepared and presented than i expected for a hotel breakfast. It is one of the better restaurants in the area. The staff were always courteous and helpful. The rooftop has lovely pools and a great view of sunsets. The bartender is beyond professional. Downtown can be noisy into the evening, but we did not have any issues sleeping with the AC fan on for white noise. People watching from our balcony was a wonderul way to relax. Easy access to the beach, restaurants and the ADO station. Would definitely recommend and happily stay again.

Overall very good! Super walkable, central, and affordable. The room (2 double beds) was spacious and decently clean, though I wouldn’t describe it as “squeaky sparkling clean”, I do have high standards when it comes to it. I will say the bed sheets were so soft and comfortable though! The property lobby and pathways had lots of lush beautiful greeneries which gave wonderful tropical feels. The rooftop pool is nothing fancy and faces some construction but does get full sun for sun bathing and has a peekaboo view of the ocean. Staff were helpful and friendly with any questions we had. The first room we got assigned on the first floor had a very funky sewage-like smell from the bathroom, they were kind enough to switch us to a different room upon request on the 3rd floor where the smell was MUCH better but still faintly there — could be to so with their plumbing system but we were happy enough with the switch. The location is very central so you have lots of options for beaches, shops, bars, and restaurants steps away from you but with that, you can most definitely and very loudly hear the bars in the surrounding area especially during the weekend and nighttime. You are right in the center of it all so naturally that is the price you pay. Beware if you are a light sleeper or noise sensitive. Overall a great stay and would recommend it! PS. Don’t skip on visiting the bar at the lobby. Pavel makes the best drinks, provides great service, and brings such fun energy to be around!

The rooms are extremely clean and the staff was so nice. Only 2 things that hindered the experience. 1. The noise from the clubs was insane. Thankfully the staff was understanding and changed our room to the other side of the building. We could still feel the bass until 6 am but better than the music combo. 2. The bathroom in the suite smelled like mold. That’s most places in Mexico though to be honest. The location was perfect, lots of great local restaurants in the area and very close to Walmart.

Sleep in a room facing the street is not possible and the staff does not care. The issue is known for years, replies to negative reviews always empty apologies; it also seems that as the money is already in their pockets, there is no interest in providing good service. I recommend to avoid and stay somewhere else. I hoped to have a room on the back as the property looks nice, but no. At check in I was told the deluxe 1 bedroom apartments are only facing the street. So avoid that type of room and I hope other rooms on the back allow for sleep. Nothing deluxe about the stay, property needs maintenance and also the room. Also, not sure what's the point of providing dishwasher, washing machine and a full kitchen without any cleaning supplies, but also salt and pepper grinders but empty. Is it expected for every guest to buy all supplies for few days...and then what? Will not come back. If you want luxury stay, other properties are much better. This place isn't worth it if one can't sleep. Only positive notes are the cocktails by Pavel.

I stayed at this hotel eight times and have recommended people to stay. I booked in October a two bedroom two bath family residence. Upon arrival I found out that I was given a room on the bottom floor on the inside of the building. An upgrade wasn’t available, which I understand but I asked for a different room on a higher floor. They said they didn’t have any availability and I said you didn’t look at my prior reservations to see where I’ve stayed? And I was told no. I said that would’ve been helpful to see where I’ve stayed previously and I was told I guess you were just lucky. I noticed there was a whole new staff, and I found out the majority of the staff that I knew had quit. One of the bathrooms, the sink was broken and leaking, and it took four hours for them to fix. This is not the experience that I’m used to at Antera. I’m used to a welcome back, smiling face, but this was not my experience. Therefore, I seriously doubt I will be back and it’s such a shame. Their customer service has changed and not for the better.

Hotel, and room, was very clean. But an outdoor nightclub is right next door, so staying in a street- facing room , I could not sleep. Luckily, I was able to move to a rear-facing room . Do not book a street facing room if you want to sleep

Very large room for the price, the rooftop pool was nice and cold but it had a building in construction obstructing the view of the sea. Altogether a nice stay close to all of the action. The kitchen was functional and well supplied except it could have done with some cleaning supplies to wash up dishes.

Our only issues were the hot tub wasn’t hot and the apartment suite needed more dishes. The staff was lovely and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Property wowed us immediately. It was quiet, included robes, plenty of AC, beautiful finishes, and we got a juice the second we were checking in from the bar. The pool is on the roof and clean along with the hot tub, the spa is clean, the parking is easy and secure. The location is fantastic seriously we can’t recommend this place enough. We stayed at multiple hotels in Mexico this trip this was by far the greatest and exactly what we needed to finish off.

The property is beautifully designed with a sleek, minimalist vibe our spacious room (we stayed in one of the suites) was spotless, super comfortable with high-end linens, a plush bed that gave us the best sleeps of our trip, and The rooftop is the real highlight two gorgeous infinity-style pools, plenty of loungers, incredible views over the city and toward the Caribbean, and a chill poolside bar with great cocktails. It was the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The staff deserves special mention from the front desk team who helped with everything (luggage, recommendations, even carrying groceries!), to the friendly faces everywhere, they were genuinely helpful, professional, and always smiling. Breakfast at the partnered Yum Yum restaurant was delicious fresh, varied, and a great way to start the day. Yes, the area has some nightlife noise (typical for central Playa earplugs are provided if needed), but it didn't bother us at all as we're night owls. Underground parking was a huge plus too! If you're looking for a stylish, comfortable, well-located spot that's great for couples, families, or anyone wanting to experience the real energy of Playa del Carmen without sacrificing peace and quality, Antera is it. We'll definitely be back already planning our next trip! 5/5 stars — Highly recommend! 🌴🏊‍♂️✨

This is a lovely hotel in an excellent location. The inner courtyard is very pretty and calming. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was much as we expected, smallish but comfortable. Being in downtown Playa Del Carmen, it was pretty noisy at night - we needed ear plugs to get to sleep, but no surprise there. The kitchen amenities were quite limited - no dish soap, wash cloth, only one small towel. The laundry worked perfectly, and the AC easily cooled both the main room and the bedroom. On our last day we couldn’t get hot water. The rooftop pool was a treat, but the hot tub would be better described as a warm tub. The bartender was delightful and made a delicious coconut mojito for our complementary drink. We would stay here again, but I’d book an interior room to reduce the noise.
