This Curio Collection by Hilton property has 133 rooms, spanning deluxe double rooms, multi-bedroom suites, ocean-view suites and residence-style apartments. All Senses Inclusive plans are offered, and facilities include two pools, restaurants such as Mercatto and Lola Rooftop Restaurant, The Spa by The Fives and a 24-hour fitness center.
The rooftop infinity pool sets the pace at the top of the building, where sea views give the deck a social, unhurried holiday feel. The Spa by The Fives and comfortable beds supply the quieter counterweight. The central Playa del Carmen address keeps the surrounding streets active, and the family-friendly policy welcomes children across the stay. The result is a hotel that works for a slow pool day and an evening out in equal measure.
All Senses Inclusive plans are available at the hotel. The two pools, the 24-hour fitness center with Technogym cardio equipment, The Spa by The Fives and the restaurants are on-site facilities. Availability of a facility is distinct from what a given plan covers, so compare the plan terms alongside the room rate when booking.
The inventory spans 133 rooms. Named categories include deluxe double rooms, multi-bedroom suites, ocean-view suites and residence-style apartments, giving the property a mix of hotel rooms and larger-format accommodation.
Deluxe double rooms are the named room category. The property also lists multi-bedroom suites, ocean-view suites and residence-style apartments among its named suite categories, so the accommodation range runs from deluxe doubles to suite and residence formats within the 133-room inventory.
Multi-bedroom suites, ocean-view suites and residence-style apartments are the named suite categories. Together with the deluxe double rooms, they form the listed accommodation choices at this 133-room property, with each category booked as its own distinct option.
Dining spans Mercatto, Cantina El Tigre, Lola Rooftop Restaurant and Fives Rooftop. Recreation centers on two pools, including the rooftop infinity pool, plus The Spa by The Fives and a 24-hour fitness center with Technogym equipment.
Dining options include Mercatto, Cantina El Tigre, Lola Rooftop Restaurant and Fives Rooftop. Themed dinner nights and happy hour are part of the activity program, giving evenings structure beyond the restaurants. All Senses Inclusive plans are offered at the hotel, which suits travelers who prefer a plan-based stay to arranging each meal separately.
Two pools anchor the recreation, led by the rooftop infinity pool and its sea views, the property’s signature experience. The Spa by The Fives is on site, and a 24-hour fitness center with Technogym cardio equipment covers training at any hour. Activities include snorkeling, themed dinner nights and happy hour, so days can split between the water, the pool deck and the evening program.
