The hotel is located 1 mile from the centre of Playa del Carmen. It takes about 45 minutes to get to Cancun airport located 32 miles away.
With their walls plastered white and yellow and the tiled flooring, the rooms, in medium size, are furnished in the Mexican rustic style. They open onto a small balcony and are equipped with air conditioning, telephone with access for international dialling via the switchboard of the hotel open 24 hours. Safes are available at the reception.
Built in 1990, the Club Bananas hotel includes 132 rooms spread into six 3-storey buildings located in the middle of a tropical garden. Their façades, all painted white, blue and ochre, give them a fairly lively appearance. They face an elevated swimming pool that is divided into 3 basins. Nearby there are hammocks where you can have some rest.
The restaurant El Platanar offers breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet style. The cuisine is both local and international. Every day, a special evening with a show is organised: Mexican, Italian, international... Its main hall is lined with rows of tables placed under fans suspended to a palm-leaf roof. The brightly coloured fabrics and blankets in Mexican design decorate all the space around. Take a seat at the restaurant Machos where the chef prepares Mexican specialities "a la carte" and a bar, the Banana Daiquiri.
The hotel operates a small concession on the public beach of Playa del Carmen that is within a 5 minute walk. The sand is white and fine and the transparency of the waters along the shore turns into a gradient of blue lagoon that stretches beyond the sea horizon. The beach is guarded and lively. A bar serves refreshments. Parasols made of palm leaves provide a little shade. A shuttle from the hotel commutes every half an hour, then every hour from 3 p.m.
A simple and restful hotel on the edge of the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, the Club Bananas is suitable for families and couples who enjoy rest and recreation. The comfort is functional and the details are carefully selected.

The Caribbean Paradise is a small hotel that benefits from simple animations of the bustling seaside town of Playa del Carmen, where it is located in the town centre. But you should appreciate its Spartan comfort. It is a good stopover place for a few days.

This is a small, basic hotel with very limited facilities, although the atmosphere is friendly. Here, you can go diving all day long and enjoy the school just on the ground floor run by the enthusiastic French owners.
As a medium-capacity club hotel, the Real Playa del Carmen has an advantageous location at the heart of Playa del Carmen, and offers a varied activity programme. It offers quite a contrasting quality of services and facilities: whilst the location and the choice in terms of the food available are very good, the smallness of the swimming pool and the narrowness of the bedrooms, on the other hand, are lamentable.

Next to Fifth avenue in Playa del Carmen, Las Golondrinas is a small, nicely decorated family hotel. As it offers few services, this posada is an ideal pied-a-terre where you can simply enjoy the lively sea resort, famous for its beaches and shopping facilities.
