We were a bit shocked having seen the photos and read the reviews in tripadvisor, which were good, but sadly did not live up to it. We were surprised with a visit from friends in Toronto as it was part of my husband's 60th birthday present, and they too were shocked with their room where the shower did not work....took 2 days to get it fixed. Then our shower packed up too and we had a job to get that fixed. Rooms are basic but clean. Drinks wise, all inclusive did not work here, as I was unable to have the other cocktails or drinks, I could only drink the beer as the local brandy or whisky was "unavailable" - however, if you give them a tip in advance, it miracleously appears!! Here you have to tip first like a bribe before you get any service or help. Despite complaints, the managers etc just shrug their shoulders and are of no help at all. The only, and I mean only redeeming factor are Marco and Freddie...ever so helpful and entertaining. Best was Coco Bongo. My watch was swiped from the room, after I left it on the basin after my shower and forgot to put it on. 10 mins later, I saw the maid had cleaned the room, when I asked her she said she hadn't seen it and had a smirk, though I know I left it there.
Sadly not a place I would visit again and I am sorry that having chosen this place it ruined the holiday for my friends from Toronto as well as my husband!! The food was gross in the evening though the breakfast and lunch was good. Beach was nice too. A sad reflection on our first trip to mexico.

My friend and i have just returned from a boss holiday...met amazing people and miss them to death.
would recommend this hotel to people who like enjoying themselves and not bothered about noise. For single girls or lads or mad couples. The food ....well the pizza delivery company does well lol. The security system is really dodgy as anyone can ay there key doesnt work and get another one for anybodys room as u only give ur room number ....things were stolen daily so lock them away in ur suitcase.

For the price we paid couldnt complain some people upgraded and moved hotel to 5 star but came back to r hotel as we most definately were having the best fun.

Rooms basic but very clean, toilet system worst ever but theres always an outside toilet lol..

Would go back 2morrow coz we met the best people to holiday with. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

My wife and two sons and I stayed at Dos Playas. Our first night we were given a tiny room with two SINGLE beds, but had paid for two large beds for 4 people. We spent two nights in this, but then got a much nicer room. For the most part, it was well worth the money and was good enough that I'd stay there again. We were out most all day anyway, enjoying the sights and sounds. We used it mainly to sleep, so why pay double or triple the price?

Just like the movie "Dirty Dancing", we HAD the time of our lives!! We have no idea where to begin. A party of four ladies from a small town in the center of Missouri, were treated like absolute queens by everyone at Dos Playas!! From the day we arrived till the day we left, we enjoyed each and every moment. The entertainment staff, "Freddie and Marco", are the BOMB!! They kept us "entertained" sunup to sundown. When we went out to the clubs (Daddy Rock, Daddy O, the City, and Bulldogs), we felt so safe and taken care of. Freddie and Marco made sure that we had plenty of activities to keep us entertained during the daytime such as; Bingo (papacito, chi chi make a bingo, and papachulo), water polo, and volleyball (we did beat Marco, Missouri style, and he is a little bit of a sore loser, but we still love him). We have already planned our trip for next year. You have got to take the Velvet Tiger boat to the island and do snorkling and swim with the shark too. The food was so much better than it was 2 years before, prior to this trip. The other people that you meet and become aquainted with is amazing. We befriended people from England, Scotland, Spain, Germany, Wales, and even some from the United States. We took so many pictures and captured every memory that we made, well almost everyone!! The security (Pedro) at the resort was strict, yet friendly and very accomadating to our EVERY need. The waiters were the best too, (Enrique, Fidel, Manuel, and a few others) Our cups were never allowed to get half empty. The Tequilla,,, WOW... we now fully understand the meaning of 1 tequilla, 2 tequilla, 3 tequilla....... beach!! Overall we ABSOLUTELY loved this vacation and will be back next year in MAY for another 14 days of fun in the sun and soaking up the night life. When the day came for us to leave, Freddie met us at the office, loaded our luggage and kissed us goodbye, 3 times. We cried all the way home, because we miss our new AMIGO'S!!!!!For those that want a GREAT place to stay and feel welcomed go to DOS PLAYAS.
