Magic Blue Spa Boutique Hotel Playa del Carmen

Magic Blue is a tropical Oasis right in the middle of everything. I had the pleasure of staying here during my recent travels to Playa del Carmen celebrating my birthday. Only one minor issue during check in but that was not on the hotels end but with the booking agency and they were very helpful during the process. From the moment I checked in until check out, the staff was AMAZING. There is a bar right outside your rooms and the tender Johan was great. ADULTS ONLY HOTEL give you more of a relaxing ,chilled vibe, so I think my friend's and I definitely brought some excitement during our stay. Location was perfect steps from 5th Avenue, the beach, shops, clubs,etc. I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK .

Two stars deduction for false marketing and non-existing fine print - beware! The good: beautiful property, a quiet oasis in a bustling resort town. Clean fresh rooms, lovely pool area. Courteous staff. Good covid awareness and prevention. The bad: if you book on their web page they talk about “benefits” you only get when you book directly with them. BEWARE - you don’t get them, they are supposedly samples of what you get with different rates. Free hydrotherapy means free 30 minutes use of indoors jacuzzi and sauna (!) for one person. If you get a $75 spa credit with your reservation BEWARE of the unwritten caveat - it is $37.50 per person (or maybe $25 p.p. if you stay 3 in the room) so they will still charge you for your spa treatments 🤦🏽‍♂️ If you ignore the advertised packages and just focus on the facility it is a beautiful place.

Small boutique hotel with very tentative staff and great location. All rooms face inner pool court yard with a meditation like vibe. This allows the street noise to be blocked. Bonus.. close to shopping restaurants and club

Extremely lush and clean hotel on 10th street, diagonally from Coco bongo. The rooms are eclectically decorated and full of light. They are set overlooking a pool and central bar area as 3-story wooden buildings with modern interiors, a large TV and coffee machine. Staff are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, and COVID rules are in place and enforced at all times. The location is fantastic, close to the restaurants and 5th Avenue but far enough to be quiet at night. The facilities are tidy and organized and staff are always available to help. The pool are has outdoor music playing, which is too loud at times. Unfortunately, this ruins the experience of sitting outside and enjoying the palm trees, wild orchids and other vegetation which is very neatly maintained. The landscaping is possibly most enjoyable best part of the hotel, it's a pity the music is so loud. The coffee in the room is not free, which was not made clear. However the coffee is not expensive, as we found out upon checkout. I checked out early in the morning and the cash box was apparently closed, so getting change to charge me for several days of coffee was a major odyssey.

Very welcoming staff. An oasis of calm in the middle of it all
