The setting is tranquil, the villas are well designed, very large, and private. The staff are incredibly attentive, polite, personalble, intuitive, professional and take pride in what they do. This was a one week getaway for my wife and I to celebrate her birthday and generally unwind. This is our 8th time to the area and our taste has evolved from the big resorts that cater to everyone to the small boutique resorts such as Viceroy. We appreciate the personal attention we received by all, from Alberto's welcome upon arrival, to Christina and her teams perfection in the kitchen, to sommelier Carlos(1)' expertise, with waiters Pablo & Carlos(2)' attention (honorable mention to Mario) in the main dining restaurant "La Marea". Abner, Victor, Jesus, and Fransisco were spot on in the "Coral Restarurant & Bar". Jose, Juan, and Pepe were kickin' it poolside with snack, lounger, sunglass, chilled towel, and drink service. We'll not soon forget the salsa dance lessons put together by Alberto & Carla just for my wife on her birthday, from a simple mention my wife made to Pablo and Carlos a day prior. I don't know how we're going top this one... perhaps only by a second visit.

I just got home from Viceroy last night - I loved the quiet atmosphere of the resort, but at times it seemed too quiet. I’m not sure if it was the time of year I went, but there was at most 3 other people out at the pool/beach. It was raining off and on, so maybe that’s why too. Otherwise, the service and staff were amazing and went above and beyond every single interaction. The walking distance from my room to the common areas was not bad at all and the hotel has many umbrella stations around for when it is raining. There are a lot of animals, granted it is in the jungle, but there were multiple around the plunge pool, very frequently throughout the day. The food and drinks were okay, not bad, but I have had better at other resorts. Overall, I would go back, but maybe a different time of year with (hopefully) better weather since it rained literally every day of my stay.

Small boutique property with beautiful grounds, excellent service, spacious and very private villas with private pools. It is best for very quiet, relaxing, secluded type of vacations, even though Playa del Carmen is only a short taxi drive away. I think they strike a great balance between eco friendliness, nature and comfort. They have a very nice SPA as well

When I first booked this trip, I noticed some mixed reviews that I’d like to address. My experience was outstanding! The location is beautiful and peaceful, yet welcoming. You truly feel immersed in the jungle. The rooms are more spacious and comfortable than typical resort rooms. I was initially concerned about the beach being described as rocky, fearing it might be unusable. However, the ocean was very close and perfectly enjoyable. While there are some rocks, it didn’t hinder my ability to relax and soak in the waves. Additionally, a short walk down the beach offers a different experience if desired. Another review mentioned mosquitos as an issue. Expecting the resort to control mosquitos is like expecting a hotel in Seattle to control the rain. Yes, there are bugs in the jungle, but the resort provides ample mosquito repellent. One reviewer complained about a long uphill walk at the resort, but I found everything to be easily accessible. There was a slight uphill climb for about 20 yards, which is hardly worth mentioning. Compared to other resorts where I’ve had to walk 20 minutes to get food, navigating this resort was a breeze, and the surroundings are incredibly beautiful. Finally, I really enjoyed the food. Yes, it’s expensive to eat and drink, but that’s expected at a non-inclusive resort. Frankly, I’ve stayed at similar places, and the experience here was worth every penny. Alberto and others made the the experience so easy. I'd absolutely go again.

We had a fantastic stay at the Viceroy. From the moment we arrived it was first class the entire time. We used the resort car service which was nice to not have to hassle with the taxis when we arrived at the airport. Straight through the chaos, to our car and away we went. Greeted with drinks and quick lay of the land and shown to our bungalow after the financials were handled. Could not have been happier with #34. It was off the main path, plenty of privacy and extremely clean. Great plunge pool was used daily/nightly. Hammock needs changed as the ends were too close and couldn’t lay back. Room was amazing. No complaints. Clean, cool and comfortable. Outdoor shower was exceptional and almost every shower was taken outdoors. Entire setup was perfect we really felt like we were there alone. Food was very good. Menu selections had a nice variety. My girlfriend is a vegetarian so I was a little worried about finding options for here but wait staff understood and were helpful in making sure she had choices. Beach was the least impressive of the entire facility. It was nice but not great and was rocky as other reviews suggest. Would not go for the beach specifically but pool area was great. All staff were amazing and extremely helpful. Could not have been happier and it didn’t feel forced. Bottom line is we will be back and excited for another trip. You won’t be disappointed. Could be a bit noisy on the weekends from neighbor resort. It was on Friday.

Hotel / resort was good and well appointed. Staff was nice and friendly. You got feel as we stayed in a jungles. Main value of this place - privacy and quietness. Few things to consider: beach was rocky and inaccessible with bare feet, need short walk to neighbor hotel sea access point. There were only two restaurants on the property - consider 15 min taxi ride at fixed $20 as alternative dinnner in town. Another tip: Once book airport transfer - stay away from Shuttle Central transfer company (offered by Expedia - we regret) : driver came late (40 min.), minibus was bitten up. Our driver - also had fun watching TV season on his cell phone all way while driving to our resort. 😀 We did his video! Viva Mexico 🇲🇽!

The grounds are beautiful and our room couldn't have been better. The private plunge pool and outdoor shower were so relaxing. We stayed 8 days and had all meals but one at Viceroy - the food was fabulous. The beach is beautiful but rocky at the shore line. The staff and service are first rate. Every request was taken care of immediately! Playa Del Carme in an easy 15 cab ride away with lots to see. Many excursions are available but we came to just take it easy and didn't try any. I HIGHLY recommend Viceroy and hope to go back.

Great place to stay if you are looking for something quiet and relaxing. The private pool villas are awesome and perfect for a romantic get away. Lots of wildlife to see on the property being set in the jungle. Staff was very professional. Came here in September 2022 for reference and the main drawback is that the beach is not good for swimming due to an abundance of rocks. Food and drinks were very good but could use a little more variety in the breakfast menu. I did some spearfishing in front of the property and the kitchen cooked the lobsters, octopus and fish I caught which was prepared wonderfully. Not a great spot for the family, but I would definitely recommend this place for couple looking for a romantic escape.

The service at this property was beyond excellent. The pool, gift shop, and wait staff went above and beyond my expectations. The exceptional staff members included: Pepe and Francisco at the the restaurant, Yvonne at the gift shop who shopped for a sun shirt for my daughter, and Pablo at the dive shop. The food was also excellent. The real drawback at the hotel was the noise at night from the properties surrounding the hotel. The music was SO INCREDIBLY LOUD and being inside the rooms seemed to amplify it. Instead of addressing the issue, the hotel passive aggressively left ear plugs on the night table. The music was so loud on the edge of the property that the water in my glass was vibrating. I asked the first night if this happened every night, the reply was that “it only happens on the weekends.” Two days later when the noise was at a crescendo, I requested to move our room. The front desk staff was condescending and acted as if it were an unreasonable request. At the end of our stay, I was told by the butler that our late checkout was no longer viable because “we moved rooms.” Later, I showed the front desk staff our letter of guaranteed late check out and was granted a check out at 2:00. The noise would have been so much easier to tolerate had I known about the noise at the start of our stay. An explanation of the ear plugs and an acknowledgment of the noise at night would have gone a long way.

I highly recommend the mayan all inclusive option. I don't think that there was anything that we would have changed about the trip.

Loved the staff and the hospitality we were shown. The staff really worked hard to make us feel special and well taken care of. The resort itself is by far one of the nicer ones in the area. The resort is relatively small, is clean, and quaint with nice restaurants (2) and lounging areas. The food and drinks were surprisingly yummy (and we consider ourselves a little food snobby-we love GOOD food). Our villa was spacious and private. We LOVED our outdoor shower (there is also one inside). There are not as many amenities because the resort is smaller. No game room or activities. They have two kayaks so if other people have them, you have to wait your turn. They were available when we wanted them, so maybe not a big issue. Our only real complaint is that it was more expensive then we were expecting. The food was quite expensive (we didn't stay all-inclusive) with the average meal for 2 costing around $100 USD. Drinks were also not cheap (average cocktail $14 USD). A spa treatment (50 minute massage and 30 minute facial) cost $236 USD and that was with a promotion! They really nickel and dime you for stuff which adds up quickly. Overall, a GREAT place to stay. You'll feel like royalty. The staff will make you feel like family. If you're rich, even better.

We took advantage of the 80-minute massage, which were performed by very well-trained therapists, were in an amazing outdoor setting with a waterfall creating a relaxing and soothing atmosphere. The property offered small pockets in the jungle to allow one to express themselves through painting or writing or mediating. The staff was most attentive. We did not want for anything.

The facilities were beautiful. Our private pool was always warm and the toilitries were always full in both the indoor and outdoor showers. Extremely spacious villas and the pool was wonderful. Service during breakfast and around the pool was extremely slow even though there weren't that many guests around, but it did not put a damper on our holiday. The location was only 20 mins from PDC where we went every night for dinner. I'd definitely stay at the Hotel Viceroy again.

The property was gorgeous, on the smaller size, quiet and intimant which is exactly what we were looking for this trip to Mexico. The staff was very attentative and made everything very easy for us. My only complaint was that they kept loosing electricity periodically.

We liked the fact that your pool villa has a heater to get you temperature you desire. It was terrible how manager handled the issue with non working air conditioner, like “so what”. Overall I think at the most this property should be 4 star.

A boutique hotel with excellent service

Maybe we were just out of luck as arrived in the middle of a thunderstorm. The room was pretty and I loved the decor. Only thing that I got bothered was a leaky roof. Poor guys had to fix it as the roof kept letting water in on a couch. Otherwise, I had a pleasant stay. Service is great, you will get what you have paid for. Will return.

The hotel facilities are excellent, nice beach, the rooms are spacious and clean. The location near Playa de Carmen and at the same time very private. I have stayed more than five times in this hotel and would do it again. Only one detail is the service on the beach and in the restaurant, despite being super friendly, it is very slow. The food although it has good quality, lacks of creativity and varíete. If you improve these two aspects this hotel is Paradise and perfect.

Very quiet, excellent service, coral grill is excellent, private plunge pool was a huge plus. It's an amazing place to escape the fast paced city and just relax and know everything you need is taken care of or will be if asked. They go above and beyond and I felt like I had my own personal service.

Hola Mexico!

We stayed at the Viceroy Riviera Playa del Carmen for 8 days. The Villas were perfect, king size bed, outdoor shower, beautifully appointed. The staff made our stay very comfortable, relaxing & enjoyable. To Alberto & Carlos we especially thank you. A shuttle from the hotel to Player Del Carmen could be a good investment. We found it a little far and expensive to travel to and from via private car. This would be a great addition for your guests as they can get more of the Mexican experience. Very special accomodatiom and service.

Beautiful hidden boutique property, not tucked behind one of the big resort facades. At first we were wondering what we would find at the end of the road but it was incredible! The details were amazing throughout. Lush landscape, beautiful villas, gorgeous use of natural materials such as wood and stone, tasteful, light furnishings and seaside decor, delicious food, and wonderful, attentive people and service. Felt like we were being welcomed home. The spa was fabulous too! My only complaint (which is not something the hotel can really fix) is that the ocean is quite rocky and not very good for swimming. This is a problem throughout the area though so definitely not site specific. They do provide water shoes though. And they work SO hard to clear the seaweed and keep the sand soft and beautiful. I was thoroughly impressed and loved our stay.

Even better experience the second visit. While we didn’t think we could top our first stay at this resort our second visit was even better. The hotel is beautiful and the staff are amazing. The service at this resort is the best in the whole luxury category in Mexico. We can’t wait to visit again.

Another wonderful stay

Just about everything about this hotel is wonderful. The rooms are nestled in a jungle so there is great privacy and a feeling of better at one with nature. We love the fact that there is a private outdoor shower and a private heated plunge pool even for the lowest priced room. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The food is quite good, indeed surprisingly so, especially the breakfasts and the Mexican street food dinner. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left the service was great.

Absolutely Wonderful Experience

Would HIGHLY recommend this hotel based on the beautiful natural setting, great rooms, wonderful attentive staff and great location. Took a private transfer with SUV and got there from the Cancun airport in <1 hour. After a short tour we were on the beach with wonderful staff like Rodrigo and Pepe to take care of us. Great cabanas, not too crowded, and wonderful beach. The private decks and plunge pools were amazing. Would strongly recommend for a honeymoon or anniversary trip.

Nice Rooms Bad Experience

The Viceroy Mayan Riviera is a boutique hotel situated just 15 minutes north of the Playa del Carmen city area. Great in thought, but when it comes to execution, serious improvement is needed to bill at 5 stars. We booked for 5 days 4 nights. Our experience was 3/5 or mediocre at best. The Good: The Viceroy is small with only 50 or so private, secluded villas. If you like privacy, you will love it here. Each villa has its own heated plunge pool always set to the perfect temperature. Rooms are scattered about a manicured jungle, which can feel less like a resort and more like a secret escape. Staff is warm. Villas are spacious. The Bad: The layout. The food. The infrastructure. The service. Because each Villa is tucked away alone in the jungle. You may find yourself getting lost often with no point of reference. Of course food is subjective, but the prices are extremely high for the quality. You will find yourself paying upwards of one to two hundred dollars per night - the restaurant does meet that level. Buildings here are made palapa style with thatched palm leaves. The main restaurant was completely destroyed because of bad weather prior to our arrival, meaning we had to eat in a grill area every night. On our last night, a rain storm poured through the roof directly onto my face as I slept at 1am, ruining my night. The beach is poorly manicured and the ocean is unusable due to sharp rocks. At checkout, we were given a bill but charged differently. This was scary.

Fabulous, but .....

We went to the Viceroy for a relaxing week and we loved our stay there, the staff were very welcoming and helpful the setting was stunning, we had a beachfront villa, waking up every morning was a delight. Breakfast was lovely, with plenty of choice, evening meal was ok nothing special. For us there was a lack of nearby restaurants. The main reason for not giving this resort 5* is the resort next door, unfortunately out of Viceroys control! On our last night we asked to be moved from our villa at 2 in the morning as the booming music and shouting from a wedding on the beach was not allowing us to sleep, I will say that the staff at Viceroy did all that they could for us and gave us another villa away from the the noise - thank you.

Gorgeous Resort close to Beach--TOP SERVICE!!

Do yourself a favor and book your stay here! My husband and I came here for our honeymoon and it was one of favorite vacations thanks to the staff at Viceroy! We live in Las Vegas and work in the hospitality industry so we already have high levels of expectations and the staff at our resort met and exceeded all our needs! They were also extremely sincere and kind which made our stay feel much more personable. And the villa and the resort is set in the mayan jungle; so it was very private, romantic, and you really feel like you are a world away. Special Kudos to particular staff members that made our stay truly magical and memorable: Rosie, Oscar, Omar, Alberto, Fatima, Jorge, Angel, Edgar, Victor, and Roger--you all are the Best!! We look forward to a return visit for an anniversary. Thank you for making our honeymoon the best ever!

Beautiful resort---bungalows were fantastic---all of them very private---great accommodations! Very well maintained--service was over the top! All staff were very friendly and very helpful. Private patios and private spas were fantastic! Room service great! Would advise going all inclusive as food and drinks were pricey but good! The beach is not a very good swimming beach---big rocks! Great palapas on beach! Beautiful pool! WE will go again but will only go All Inclusive
