Rui Palace didn't dissapoint again. The property was very clean. The food was good. If you ask for good alchohol you will get, otherwise you get whatever is the cheapest. We liked the Japanese restaurant and Krystal the most. Entertaiment was good. The neon party was a hit.The only negative part was the seeweed. Other hotels around were cleanig them daily and at ours it was just left there to smell. The matresses can use some improvement as well. Not comfortable at all, but everything else was really good.

Information about the area

Playa del Carmen, Mexico
Playa del Carmen was originally a small fishing village south of Cancun, but in the last years it has transformed into a bustling tourist resort. It is one of the most colorful and diverse towns on the Mayan Riviera. Playa del Carmen offers balmy tropical breezes, world class food, good night life, amazing ruins, endless beaches, incredible snorkeling, wonderful parks, friendly people and so much more. And it is as mellow or as wild as you'd like it to be. Playa del Carmen is a great base for exploring all of the interesting places on the Mayan Riviera and the Yucatan peninsula. The island Cozumel, which offers some of the best snorkeling and scuba diving in the world, it's just a short boat ride away. The site of Chichén Itzá is 3 hours away, but it's definitely worth the trip! Although touristy Playa del Carmen is captivating and picturesque, full of small and charming Mexican shops and restaurants. This little city has so much to offer if you want it.
