I stayed at The Fives Downtown Hotel just after it opened, December 2017.

I have extensive knowledge of the travel industry and I loved this property!

It’s a very chic city hotel with a South Beach/Ibiza modern vibe.

It’s in the heart of Playa del Carmen, great proximity to go off property to experience the clubs and restaurants on 5th Avenue.

There’s nice outdoor dining, DJ’s playing around the pool during the day, the rooftop pool is like something you’d see at a high quality hotel in South Beach.

It’s a really unique hotel experience with impeccable service and dining! Everything is made fresh to order, not mass production.

There’s a really great coffee bar on-site too. I’d have a specialty coffee each morning and go back for something blended with ice later in the day, it was so good.

The area is really safe, not sketchy at all. Although the hotel is not on the beach, it’s just 3 short blocks away and there’s tons of great beach clubs just a few minutes from the hotel.

This hotel attracts a variety of people – some on business, some on vacation, it’s a great mix with a hip vibe.

It’s not for everyone, but to be in the heart of the action and have exceptional food and service, it’s perfect!

At night, most people go out, but if you stay in, the rooftop bar is the place to be.

The hotel is not adults only, children can go, but not a good place to bring them.

There’s great choices for dining nearby as well, I would go back in a heartbeat!
