Posada Mariposa Boutique Hotel - 5th Avenue, hotel in Playa del Carmen

On Playa del Carmen's famous 5th Avenue, an area known as Little Italy, this small hotel offers unique, but comfortable guestrooms, just steps from the beaches of the Caribbean Sea.

The staff was very kind, and after we asked whether there were room refrigerators and told that our particular room simply didn't have one, they informed us the next day they would install one, since we needed it for our baby food.

FAQs about hotels in Playa del Carmen







It's Time to Playa

At the centre of the Mayan Riveria is Playa del Carmen, a playground for hip Europeans and toned-and-tanned Americans. This resort town showcases the renowned white-sand beaches of the Caribbean Coast along the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico.

Playa del Carmen's powdery white sands are nestled between Cancun to its north, Tulum in the south and the island of Cozumel, 20 km east with its fantastic diving in the nearby Great Maya Reef. Awake from an afternoon nap to take a dip, go snorkelling or deep-sea fishing in the beautiful blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Playa is an easy choice as a holiday destination with its range of hotels, many first-class restaurants and beachside nightclubs. Quinta Avienda, also known as 5th Avenue, is the main tourist hub and shopping district. For a more authentic Mexico experience, venture outside of the centre to a local cenote (sinkhole) or Mayan ruins in Tulum.

Cruise ships dock in nearby Cozumel and traffic people to the mainland arriving at the Playa del Carmen Maritime Terminal. If the glimmering Caribbean waters are full, then Booking.com has a huge number of hotels with an outdoor swimming pool by the beach.

    I went there to see a dentist.

    I went there to see a dentist. The cost to fly there and stay for week plus the dental visit was less than my cost do it here at home. So, I was there for a week. The beaches are beautiful and the sun is strong! PDC has a busy shopping district that you have to see. 5th Ave is about 2 miles of shops and restaurants and other services like massages and pharmacies. Lots of junk and somewhat aggressive shopkeepers trying to get you into their store. The roads that run parallel to 5th are also full of shops and restaurants, but at a much quieter pace. 1st and 10th Ave are a welcome relief from the hustles on 5th. Be aware of scammers on 5th saying "remember me from the hotel" also you will be offered weed and cocaine many times a day when you walk up and down 5th Ave. You will get used to saying "no thank you" and just keep saying it. PDC is safe, just keep you're head on straight and don't get too drunk while you're there. And make smart decisions. PDC is a 3 hour bus ride to Chichen Itza and that is the must see of any trip the region.

    The beach wasn't swimmable because it had a lot of rocks, a lot of seaweed and the hotel didn't clean it. Go to Cancún, Playa del Carmen is not beautiful. The resort: Yucatan princess was the worst part, as the food served there was horrible. I came home very sad.

    It was an unexpected delight. It's a walkable city close to the beach. It comes alive at night and is so serene to navigate through. The structure of the buildings are gorgeous. I loved also being around the people of Playa Del Carmen; I loved the local feel to it.

    Having spent some time in Cancun, (zona hotelera) before visiting playa del Carmen, I think I would definitely prefer the beaches in Cancun. Playa del Carmen had a lot of seaweed and I found that unpleasant. The sea was alright, the facilities we didn't use because our accommodation was right in front of the beach.

    Everything!! The resort is spotless and beautifully decorated. The rooms are stunning! They are so clean and so spacious! For an all inclusive the food is incredible. It is all mainly unprocessed fresh food. I have stayed in many all inclusive hotels all over Mexico and this has some of the best food! The service was incredible! Everyone is so helpful! There is so much to do! I highly recommend this resort as I have been to many others in Cancun and this one is one of the bests.

    I love that this place is right on the beach. It has a great view of the ocean. Balcony has chairs to sit and enjoy the view and there is a very nice breeze. The architect of this hotel made it so the breeze runs through everything very nicely. Love that they provide beach chairs for you to sit at throughout the day. It’s another big reason I selected this place. The pool it’s nice to dip into after the ocean though it’s small. They also had hot water.

    This is a lovely hotel! The room was a great size with two double beds and big bathroom. Everything was clean and well kept. There was a small balcony too. The rooftop pool and terrace are great, with views over the coast and a range of sunloungers, sofas and beds. The staff are all really friendly and helpful. The location is a 5 min walk to the beach and Main Street of playa del carmen. It’s also not far to walk to the ferry port to Cozumel.

    Cas'Arte was the perfect hotel for our stay over at Playa del Carmen. Nice facilities, easy to park our car, quiet during the night, and still super close to the centre and great breakfast places like Choux Choux Café. Above all, it was the owner and host Fabri who made it an exceptional experience. Fabri took intensively care of us, helping us with whatever question we had, he is extraordinary :-)
