Hotels with Swimming Pools in Paamul

"We really liked staying at the Occidental. It is huge, it was busy but somehow, it is so well designed that it never felt crowded. We were very surprised by the additional fees to be charged at check in ($750 pesos) (why not give a heads up from Expedia or in advance?), and disappointed in the lack of communication by the hotel when we repeatedly asked, months ahead of our stay, for adjoining rooms but managed on day 2 to change rooms to be close TO OUR CHILDREN instead of down the hall. Thank god for David at the front deck as Lily did not help the night before but ignored our ask. But once that was settled - we loved the hotel, the food, the cleanliness. We do think we were a bit hoodwinked by the Chichen Itza trip - which was promised as a 3hr to Chichen trip but was 5 hours to get there because of multiple buses. We would return to Occidental."

"Tudo muito bom! Apenas não há nada estacionamento no resort. Há vagas públicas em frente, mas precisa ficar atento ao horário . Funcionários educados e prestativos, comida boa , excelente localização."

"Eveything was amazing! "

"Our trip was amazing. We had a wonderful time with our family. The resort is beautiful and clean and the staff were all very friendly and accommodating. Restaurants were all great. Lots of pools. Lots of food options. Lots of kid friendly activities. The only things that we didn’t love was the chair saving at the pool down by the beach was a little crazy. By 8 am all the chairs are covered with towels there isn’t anyone around. But we have been to other resorts that are the same way. Would highly recommend this resort especially with families. "

"Clean room, excellent service, great amenities, delicious food. "

"The location was great, taking a tunnel under the main street to the beach area and snorkeling right from there. We snorkeled as far south as the ferry pier a few times, was very convenient. We borrowed the included bikes and went about 2 miles south (to the marina) and pretty far north as well. Very nice to walk 4-8 blocks to two grocery stores and the main square. You can catch a cab right in the parking lot. We took a cab most days for scuba and they were all friendly and charged the expected rate. The food here is buffet style, it is clean and well prepared but not very interesting. Same for the drinks, it's pretty much the all inclusive basics and nothing special. The shows were also pretty average. That said for the price you can't expect much more. You can take those savings and go elsewhere for a luxurious meal or a drink you might post a picture of on insta. Everyone seemed pretty happy with the resort, and many people in the hot tub were return visitors. If you are a foodie, or want pictures of food for whatever, this isn't the place. Also, no drinks (alcohol or otherwise) in the room fridge, or snacks for that matter, but the grocery is right down the street. "

"10/10 on all. Jose at the beach service and butler service perfect. Great place to go and to go back again."

"The best All Inclusive vacation ever!Resort, staff, food 3rd time going and will be back soon…."

"We stayed at Paradisus Playa del Carmen and had an excellent experience overall. The resort truly deserves five stars. Our room was spotless, and housekeeping was outstanding. Every day while we were out, the staff cleaned the room, refreshed the bed sheets, and made it feel like the first day again. The pool area was very clean, well organized, and never felt crowded. Poolside service was attentive, and the drinks were high quality. The pool buffet and lunch options were delicious, with great variety and fresh ingredients. Chefs and staff clearly cared about food quality and presentation. The main buffet was open from morning until late evening and offered a wide selection. In addition, there were several specialty restaurants with very good food, and reservations were generally manageable. The beach area was clean and relaxing, with towels, a beach bar, and activities like kayaking included. Entertainment and shows were enjoyable and added to the overall experience. A few small cons: shows were held in different locations each night, so following the schedule was sometimes confusing. Also, some restaurants closed briefly between meal times, and the main pool and pool bar closed around 6 PM, which felt early. Bars in family areas also closed around 10–10:30 PM. Overall, these were minor issues in an otherwise fantastic stay. We would happily return and highly recommend this resort. Booking through Expedia was smooth, and staff professionalism made the vacation stress free."
