The staff at Dos Playas were exceptional! Everyone was really nice and accommodating, from the front desk staff to the servers. Guadalupe and Luis were particularly great servers, and they made our stay all the more enjoyable!
The beach area is great, and it is easy to access excursions from this hotel. The buffet was great every day, from breakfast to dinner. There are also pretty good snack options on-site, like pizza and burgers. There is entertainment in the nighttime, which was enjoyable. You can walk to Coco Bongo from here in about 40 minutes.
The hotel does appear to be a little older. The room will not be the best you've ever stayed in, and some sections of the resort could use a little physical love. If you're more interested in a great and picturesque room, this resort probably isn't for you. If you're more interested in the beach, excursions, and exploring Cancun, this resort will allow you to do that at an affordable price. There were tons of families vacationing at this resort while we were there, and they seemed to be having a great time! I think people of all ages can enjoy themselves here.
The staff, including maintenance and cleaners, were very receptive to our requests, and they were very prompt.
The highlights of this resort were the staff, the beach, and the buffet.
