Mosquito Blue Hotel & Spa - Playa del Carmen 20.62494, -87.07467

I go to Playa 4-5 times a year and this was my first time to stay at Mosquito Blue. I was very pleased. The location was perfect... you are right in the middle of everything. My room overlooked 5th Avenue, and although it's a pretty busy and loud street, especially late at night, it did not disturb me at all! The room and bathroom were very cute and clean. The pool was nice and it was great having internet access by the pool. Beds were just ok... but I didnt do a whole lot of sleeping on my trip anyways! Didnt get a chance to eat at the restaurant, but it was absolutely gorgeous. Did have the free breakfast at the other hotel - Mosquito Beach - and it was great. I cant wait to stay at Mosquito Blue again!

We found the staff at this hotel rather distant and cold, and were very dissatisfied with the reservations staff and manager in particular. Our outbound flight was cancelled due to a snow-storm, and when we called to change the reservation to a day later, they were very accommodating, "no problem!" They changed their story once we got there, and sprung an extra day's charge on us! We were horrified, because this hotel was a big splurge for us, and we had not budgeted for this significant extra charge. The reservations manager was, actually, quite rude to us - shockingly so, so much that it cast a dark cloud on our stay. The hotel itself was adequately clean, but lacked charisma. The room was a big disappointment - we had booked because of the lavishly described ultra premium Egyptian cotton sheets advertised on the web page, but instead found scratchy polyester blend sheets and uncomfortable pillows. Overall, a huge disappointment.

Mosquito Blue was a great hotel. We would definitely stay there again. It is in a great location on 5th street but not for the light sleeper. It is situated between the lively 5th street and the new Coco Bongos. A great place for late nighters who like to be in the center of town. The showers are a trickle but the atmosphere is an oasis from town.

We just took our "BabyMoon" in Play del Carmen. This hotel was the perfect place for it. The staff was friendly, helpful and spoke English very well. The grounds were beautiful and peaceful. The ambiance was never-ending "chill". They played loungy/chill-out music all day and evening. We stayed in a junior suite on the first floor and had the doors to the courtyard open whenever we were in our room. Felt very safe. Never questioned the integrity of the cleaning staff. The location was perfectly situated on 5th Ave. It was right in the middle...a mile in each direction of shops, boutiques, vendors, yummy restaurants and bars. And the sister hotel (Mosquito Beach) is just a couple leiurely blocks away which is perfect for playing/relaxing on the beach. Great service there, too. Oh, and the French restaurant at Mosquito Blue was incredible. We wish we would have eaten there a couple more times. We now plan to make this a yearly trip and plan on staying at this hotel many more times. It is definitely the best boutique hotel in the area.

I never write these reviews, but we were so pleasantly surprised with our hotel that I felt the need to do so. The location is fantastic. The hotel is not on the beach, but the sister hotel, Mosquito Beach is literally two blocks away and you can utilize their beach all day. The service on the beach was amazing as well. Waiters walking around all day, employees offering to put up umbrellas for you, etc. Our hotel was extremely clean. While it doesn't offer crazy amenities, it is all you need. It's very clean, the front desk staff is extremely helpful, and they can get you anything you need. We were extremely happy with Mosquito Blue and would recommend it to anyone!

Hotel is located on the main tourist shopping/dining street, and is also only 2 blocks from the beach. There is also a sister hotel, Mosquito Beach, on the beach where you can charge food and drinks to your room. So it is very convenient. Staff was very helpful. The rooms were nicely designed and clean. We had a first floor room that looked out onto one of the pools, which was somewhat worrisome for privacy reasons but that ended up not being a problem. Bathroom was very nice. Bed was comfortable, although the sheets could have been better. Only potential problem was because of its proximity to bars and nightclubs, the noise at night could be problematic for a light sleeper (it wasn't for us). I would definitely recommend the hotel.

It's right in the middle of everything that's happening! If you're into that, nice pool, beach is very close safe walk from the hotel. Try the Taco cart in front of the hotel in the VW bus! awesome!

Really nice hotel if you want to be right in the center of the tourist district with a great location on 5th Ave. 2 blocks from beach. 1 block from the famous Blue Parrot night club. Shops & restaurants within a few steps. Excellent buffet breakfast included in cost. Dinner here is expensive and not nearly as good a restaurants in the immediate area. There is a good pizza bar 2 doors down with reasonable prices. The staff is very efficient, friendly and accommodating. The front desk staff speak excellent English and are most willing to help in anyway. The maids etc are friendly but speak little English. This hotel is lovely with 2 absolutely gorgeous swimming pools. The rooms come with comfortable beds & pillows The bathroom is European down to no wash cloths. Towels are huge and plentiful. There is a small refrigerator with bar as well as a TV which was not used. WE did use the computer center as well as wireless in public areas. Electricity is the same as in the US. There is a Drug store as well as a convenience store nearby. Playa has a Wal-Mart, a Sams Club as well as a large grocery store. The only negative about this hotel is that there is no parking. You must find parking on a nearby street. The hotel may be a little noisy as it is in the center of the tourist district. If you want peace and quiet, look somewhere else. WE found peace and quiet just south of Tulum at the Los Liros Hotel along the Hotel Zone thanks to a wonderful Tourist agency on 5th Ave in Playa called Solatino. Mike was wonderful and every suggestion that he gave us was right on. From hotels to tourist attractions, driving direction. He got us very reasonable rates on our hotels for the rest of our vacation. Playa is a wonderful tourist town and a good place to base. bbeerbower

this hotel is quaint, beautiful, and is a perfect mix between hip/european as well as mexican in style. It tends to get a little noisy LATE at night bc it is right off of 5th avenue, but its really not that bad. The hotel does not go over the top to be super friendly, but that is the overall style of the place -- which dependign on what you are looking for can be great or slightly annoying. They have maps and knowledgeable people working the desk who can tell you a lot about the area and where to go.

This was a surprisingly quaint in-town (Playa Del Carmen, MX) boutique hotel. The staff was supurb and exceeded our expectations. The two pools were unexpected for a hotel of this size. Our room was equipped with a comfy king-sized bed, plenty of shelf space and a nicely appointed functional bathroom/shower. Our room came with a balcony overlooking the front pool and we found that it was a great place to catch up on some reading. The hotel's sister property Mosquito Beach was the perfect beach setting with large black fluffy beach beds, sun-shaded chaise lounges and again, an outstanding staff. Food at Mosquito Beach (served oceanside) was the perfect faire and delicious! While using the facilities at Mosquito Beach, We enjoyed a lunch consisting of some delicious appetizers and Tacos-Camarones with a locally brewed beer... The in-town location of Mosquito Blue cannot be beat... it's right in the heart of the town of Playa Del Carmen and everything was within walking distance. We look forward to our next stay at Mosquito Blue and would recommend it to friends.

Tout est dans le titre ! l'hotel est très mignon, un vrai petit havre dans le plein centre de playa del carmen, la chambre etait très bien mais très bruyante. on entendait les basses de la boite de nuit d'a coté jusqu'à 6h du matin !

Elhelyezkedes csillagos otos. 1 perc setara a strandtol, a legjobb baroktol es szorakozohelyektol, megis csendes. Agy nagy es kenyelmes, furdoben van eleg hely, minibart toltik rendesen (az asvanyviz iszonyat draga). Ket medence, eleg napagy, halk chill out zene, es sok lehetoseg szoban kivul, hangulatos lazitasra. Ettermet nem probaltuk mert tul sterilnek tunt, de igy is jo benyomast tett rank. Szemelyzet eszrevetlenul es kivaloan teszi a dolgat. A legtobb nagy hotelt veri hangulatban, elhelyezkedesben mindent visz.
