My stay at Playa Tropical Resort Hotel had its ups and downs. The beach location was lovely, providing stunning views and a nice pool area (particularly for sunset watching!). However, the overall state of the resort screamed for a facelift, and some of the amenities, like the towels and shower facilities, were a letdown. Despite this, I felt welcomed by the friendly staff, making my stay more enjoyable.

I had two stays at this hotel, and while the beach was nice with fine black sand, I encountered several issues.

The pool area needed cleaning, and my experience left me hoping for more attention to detail.

We had a wonderful time during our two-day stay at this resort. The beach was just a stone’s throw away, and we loved the complimentary breakfast with a beautiful view. Although the rooms were basic, we upgraded to a suite that was spacious and comfortable. The dining experience was great, though the food was a bit pricey. Overall, it was a relaxing getaway, but the Wi-Fi and limited activities could be improved.
