Book a Hotel Near Centro, Playa del Carmen

The roof top pool is awesome. Nice view of the ocean. There are multiple slip, trip and fall hazards. Gets crowded....

This building is less than a year old and is located very conveniently to the beach, Avenida Quinta, buses, collectivos, grocery and convenience stores, restaurants, the ferry terminal, and basically everything in Playa. The room and hotel were clean. The rooftop pools were attractive and had plenty of loungers and tables. Hotel staff was pleasant and welcoming. Beach towels are provided as are soap and shampoo. There is some beautiful landscaping in the interior. The included breakfast was at the Yum Yum restaurant attached to the building. It included a nice variety of choices, a friendly staff, and everything tasted very good - definitely an added value. A word of warning - it's not a quiet area. There were discos on either side of the block that pumped loud music every night - until 4am on weekends. And then in the morning, if you're on the NE corner of the building above the restaurant (#117, #118 and maybe more), there are loud sounds of chairs and tables scooting as early as 6:15am. Automobile and pedestrian noise from the street is present at most hours as well. We enjoyed our stay immensely at Antera and hope to return in the future.

The rooms were great and the staff were very helpful and accommodating to requests.
