Loved our stay. We were here for 7 nights and it still wasn't enough to enjoy everything the property had to offer. ALL the staff was amazing. Everyone was so incredibly helpful and kind. We traveled with my 85 year old grandma and they accommodated switching our room part way through our stay since the stairs became hard for her to manage. All the restaurants had such great options for a vegetarian like me! Can't speak highly enough of how wonderful this hotel is.

Loved the food quality, ocean view pool and the other quieter pools scattered throughout. My husband and I enjoyed the 1pm classes offered everyday. We went kayaking for free (had to figure that out on our own). A short 30 minute walk to 5th Ave and the public beach.

We had a wonderful stay at the Royal Hideaway. The a/c in our Sunset room was not working correctly on our first night. Someone did come to fix it and it was slightly better the second night, but the room was still warm. We advised our concierge, Suncil, who upgraded us to a suite for the balance of our week. This was the only problem we had, but it was quickly rectified. Both rooms were extremely clean and this is possibly the cleanest resort we have ever stayed at, out of the 15 all inclusive trips we have made to the Caribbean. The restaurants were all delicious, with Azia and The Grill being our favorites for dinner. Lunch at The Deck was great every day with numerous buffet or menu selections. The bars were all excellent with almost every top brand liquor being available. Wish we remembered the bartenders names at Bar Allegra, but they were great. We will definitely put Royal Hideaway on our list for return visits. Thanks for a great week!

The property was beautiful and it was pleasing to the eyes. I knew there was a problem with the A/C before we got there because it was set to 13C, but it was 23C in the room… the lowest the room temp got to the entire time was 22.5C, and it was running the entire time. While the beds felt great, it was uncomfortable sleeping at such high temps. Our shower was also difficult to control, as it was either all cold or scalding water… there was no in-between. The food, while there were plenty of options, was less than desirable. This was one of our first vacations where we both lost weight. We found dishes we could eat, but had a tough time as we didn’t want to eat the same thing every meal… breakfast was probably the best thing there. Our concierge Ricky was awesome. He was kind and really seemed to know how to help us with anything we needed, although I will admit that I didn’t mention the A/C until the final full day we were there, after asking another guest about their A/C experience. We make an intentional effort to not be a nagging couple. We agreed that cruises will be our vacation of choice after this experience, even though we did enjoy spending our anniversary together.

Great property, nicely setup and well taken care of. Common areas are fantastic, with touch of luxury and authenticity. Food is nothing special, average at best, but the restaurants setup is really nice. If you like activities, the staff is not that interested in summoning people in to participate, there is not an active engagement to get few people in to play volleyball or stretch. If you are there, you're there, if no one shows up they leave. Service is wonderful, rooms are great. Beach is super nice, but seaweed is unbearable, like in all areas of that coast. Water is brown. I am a beach person and dont like swimming pools, yet couldn't force myself to go into the water, it was that bad. Yet again, it is not a property issue, it is a regional issue at large. Outside areas are nice and safe to walk. There is a small shopping plaza right across and Playa Del Carmen is 25 minutes away walking. Cab is $10 each way. The whole area is safe and fun to walk around. The whole Playacar area is gated, and the hotel is double gated. We had a great time.

We stayed at the Royal Hideaway Playacar from July 24-28, 2025, and everything was fabulous! My husband and I have never stayed at an adult only resort, but we will definitely be back. Each villa has a dedicated concierge. Our room was in Villa 22, and our concierge was Cipriano. He was wonderful! He anticipated our needs and helped us with things we didn’t know to ask him about! He made sure we had our dinner reservations set up for each evening, and reminded us to set up our transportation back to the airport when our stay was coming to an end. He gave us great recommendations, tips and tricks for our excursion to Cozumel. His advice definitely saved us from what could have been a frustrating situation. Every single staff member, from the check in staff, to the concierges, the event staff, the servers and hosts in the restaurants, the maintenance crews, and housekeeping staff were all so pleasant and always had smiles on their faces. No request was annoying to them, they just happily accommodated. We felt valued and taken care of from the moment we stepped onto the property until the very last second we were there. If you are someone who enjoys the big parties at other resorts, (the foam parties at the pool, the crazy contests, the loud music and flashing lights, guests drinking until getting hammered drunk, and dancing the night away), this might not be an enjoyable resort experience for you. The clientele are definitely an older, more mature crowd, but so much fun!

Review 7/10-7/12

I recently stayed at The Royal Hideaway in Playa del Carmen, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcomed and well taken care of. The resort itself is stunning tucked away in a peaceful, adults-only setting with beautifully maintained grounds, private beach access, and luxurious amenities throughout. The food and drinks were top-tier. Every restaurant on site offered a different culinary experience, and the service was consistently attentive and friendly. Whether we were lounging by the pool, enjoying dinner by the beach, or grabbing a drink at the bar, the team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Our room was spacious, spotless, and beautifully designed, with a comfortable bed and a view that made it hard to leave. I also appreciated the little details like turndown service and daily restocking of the mini bar. The vibe at the resort is quiet, classy, and ideal for couples or anyone looking for a relaxing, all-inclusive getaway without the loud party scene. We left feeling refreshed and already planning our return. If you’re thinking about booking, do it you won’t regret it.

The grounds are beautiful, our room was clean and spacious. Couldn’t get the shower to work consistently- temperature kept varying between extremely hot and cold, despite asking management to fix it twice. Food and service at Italian restaurant was excellent. Had a disappointing encounter with one member of staff in the restaurant at the beach ( which served breakfast and lunch) who was determined not to give me two spoons one day when I had ordered uber eats and wanted to eat in our room. Two spoons and he would not give them to me . After about an hour and having to go to the Mai desk, I got the two spoons for our now cold food. There is a bar there open most of the time called Allegria which has about as much atmosphere as the moon. They do afternoon tea in the main building which is nice. There are about 3 or 4 pools, 3 of which look like they have a hot pool, don’t be fooled, they’re not. The pools, however, are nice.

This turned out to be an amazingly relaxing vacation at Royal Hideaway. I’m only giving 4 stars because of the immense amount of seaweed in the ocean at the time (not the resorts fault). The food was excellent here!! And the grounds are kept immaculate. The staff is incredibly helpful and kind. It’s wasn’t too crowded and the whole resort has an overall quiet atmosphere, but still fun at the main pool with activities. Shopping right across the street with a short walk. Highly recommend visiting this resort in Playa!
