Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
After a 14 hour experience to get there we were put in a room with no water and no phone working and I and my wife are in the late 70 and this was at the furthers end of the property (1 kilometre) from the beach and changed me 6160.00 pesos to upgrade to an elite room close to the beach as we have trouble walking long distances. After getting up at 4:00am to leave for Mexico it’s now 9:00 pm we finally get to the elite suite the air conditioning is so noisy we have to shut it off to sleep and on the second last the fan assembly of the air conditioning unit fell off with a loud bang and after waiting 2 hours a repair man fixed. Also the bathroom had lots of mould on the ceiling and they totally refused to compensate the 6160 pesos for the week. The building wire elite suite had 2 of 3 elevato permanently out order so made very hard for us at our age to do the stairs. So yes never Sandos for us ever again

Great stay! Great food! Great staff!
Sandos Playacar is absolutely amazing! Their costumer service goes above and beyond! SO MANY employees that made our experience amazing! Very clean! Great variety of restaurants and food, and the buffet is SO good! A lot of activities from music, to water sports, to shows! In the Spa, Thank you Araceli for your kindness and extra TLC. At our new years celebration, thank you Rodolfo for answering all my questions and making sure we had exactly what we wanted; thank you also Teodoro for helping us in wine selections; and thank you Juan for going the extra mile at the New Year celebration and also at the delicious Gourmex restaurant. Thank you Isabel at the buffet, and Alex and all the boys from the pool bar.

The property is beautiful with lots of dining options. Our 2nd visit. Beautiful beach and multiple pool areas to choose from. We had some awesome dining experiences along with a couple unsatisfactory experiences. Rooms are very spacious. The property was always very clean but some areas a little dated. If you're in the back family section, it's about a 8 min walk to the beach but there are a couple pools right around the corner. Night life & entertainment is limited. Kid friendly.

Lots of lush greenery and the beach is amazing! Food is quite good as well. Lots of walking. We were at the very back but had our own pool and near by restaurant plus the swim up bar and pool we had actually came around to serve unlike the beach one. Overall was pleasantly impressed with this place for the price.

We enjoyed our trip. It was tough to get reservations at some restaurants. We ended not going to them at all. Food is great just makes whatever you eat from buffets are cooked properly. The shows was great.
