I had a mix of experiences at Playa Azul Golf and Spa. While the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, and I enjoyed the beautiful golf course, there were some drawbacks like noise from cruise ship excursions and crowded areas. The rooms were clean and offered stunning views, which was a plus. The breakfast could use improvement in terms of variety and quality. Overall, it's a decent spot but has its challenges, especially during peak cruise days.

Playa Azul is a wonderful beachfront hotel with a stunning location and great snorkeling right off the beach. The rooms are clean, modern, and spacious, but we did experience some issues with the Wi-Fi and air conditioning during our stay. Dining options were impressive with a great breakfast buffet, but the waitstaff on the beach could have been more present. Overall, it offers great value for money and a peaceful atmosphere.

I had an amazing stay at Playa Azul, where the atmosphere was peaceful and the snorkeling was fantastic. The rooms were comfortable with great views, but I found the Wi-Fi to be a bit lacking, especially during peak times. The staff was incredibly welcoming and offered helpful recommendations, making my experience truly enjoyable. While the restaurant had good food, it could benefit from more diverse music options. Overall, I can't wait to return!

My stay at Playa Azul was nothing short of amazing! The beachfront location offers stunning views, and the smaller size of the resort creates a cozy atmosphere. The service was outstanding, with attentive staff making sure our every need was met. The dining options were great, but having a few more choices would have been nice. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that I'd gladly repeat!
