Great holidays in Mexico
I have to say that rooms where very clean and restaurants as well, the staff in general were very polite and helpful. The only thing I would point is the lack of air condition in lobby or in the front bar.

Lovely holiday
Had a lovely time at the the playacar ,the room was nice and clean,bautiful beach food was nice,only down side is there is no air con in bar areas.
Relaxing enjoyable holiday
Recently returned from a relaxing pleasant holiday at the riu playacar Rooms are good spacious and kept spotlessly clean and contain everything you would need . They even have a minibar and optics although these were never refilled during our stay Restaurants are good with lots of choice we especially enjoyed the asian restaurant staff throughout the hotel are friendly and very attentive The hotel reception area is not airconditioned and neither is the lobby bar which leaves areas very hot during the day The room airconditioning also only seems to go down to 21c which for is to warm
NOW FOR MY ONLY REAL COMPLAIN AND THE REASON FOR NOT GIVING 5 STARS The hotel has 3 pools an activity pool ,a swim up bar and a quiet pool Why are people allowed to take drinks into the quiet pool when you have a swim up pool also why are drinks issued in GLASS for use around the pool this is a health and safety hazard and shouldn't happen Finally the pool says no inflatables but they are everywhere please enforce your own rules
