The Royal Hideaway Playacar, Mexico does all-inclusive right. This breathtaking, adult-only resort claims a spectacular beach, infinite pools and services, and exquisite suites! Royal Hideaway is a new level of all-inclusive.
This all-inclusive resort is just a 10-minute stroll from Playa del Carmen, so if its activities including tennis, sailing, biking, and basketball, not to mention a piano bar, cooking classes, and an abundance of pools aren’t sufficient, there’s always city entertainment nearby. But once you arrive on the resort, I can guarantee you will not be in a hurry to leave.
Forget resort bracelets, towel vouchers, and limited alcohol choices. Chilled champagne and warm towels upon arrival are the first sign that luxury is a top priority here. Also, order any drink you want from the comfort of one of the pools or give room service a ring for snacks and drinks in your suite.
In addition to gorgeous beaches and unrestricted amenities, Royal Hideaway features an oversized cascading infinity pool and relaxation pools around the property for indulgent sun lounging.
Beds are piled high with creamy gold and brown pillows, closets are walk-in, and the staff seems truly happy to be there.
Food is above par for an all-inclusive resort, especially the Thai fusion dishes that are prepared in front of your eyes.
The Royal Hideaway offers the highest degree of resort luxury with exceptional amenities and superior service. I felt the “royal” experience while staying at Royal Hideaway Playacar.

WOW truley a resort getaway… this looks AMAZING. Its put on the places I’d like to go list. ;o) Thank you!
It really was something else! If it’s stress-free luxury that you’re after, this is the place.
It would be nice…
I normally like the rough it get into the zeal travel .. but a pamper vacation wouldn’t hurt my feelings – at all 
wowee
I have to put this on my list of places to visit when I need some indulged R&R. Exceptional.
oh no, my wallet just jumped out of my back pocket, hopped out the window, and killed itself!
haha, maybe one day i’ll be able to afford this.
Looks stunning.
The original resort where we reserved and paid (less than half the price) was overbooked so they sent us here at no additional charge.
I truly have luck on my side
Looks very nice, indeed! I’m coming to Playa del Carmen, all the way from cool Copenhagen (Denmark) in 73 days (not that I’m counting the days), primarily for some Cenotes Diving and for a spot of Whale Shark Snorkeling. However, I am not staying at Royal Hideaway Playacar – although I’m now considering an upgrade on my accommodation
I stayed in three resorts in the area and this was my favorite. Which resort do you have booked? the area is beautiful; regardless of where you stay, you’ll enjoy it.
Well, my dive travel agent made the choice for me, and I have just now checked it out. It’s ‘Casa De Gopala’, which has gotten fine reviews. So I guess that I can live with that, on this my first trip to Mexico
Beautiful images and hostess. Enjoyed viewing.
Wow! This place looks amazing!

Casa De Gopala is a little older but in a great location!
I’ve been back to Mexico a few times now and I’ve loved every experience.
Good luck and enjoy
That water looks so inviting. I can’t wait for summer when I look at shots like these. Although, I must admit, I am enjoying the cool temps of spring at the moment.
Not that it’s ever really cold in southern California, but I’m honestly enjoying the cooler temperatures as well. At 9 months pregnant, I don’t think I could handle the heat of Mexico right now.
I could definitely go for a dip in those waters though.
Have you ever been to Mexico before?
No, I’ve never been, Leslie. It looks like a pretty place though.
I’m surprised your little one hasn’t arrived yet. You must be overdue? I’ve been thinking about you lately with your active lifestyle, and of course, wishing you the best.
Nice!
What a beautiful place to relax and become a lounge lizard:)
Oh…looks good! Love the royal treatment! Just experienced something similar at the Mayakoba Fairmont Resort. While not all-inclusive, it was the true celebrity experience (complete with celebs!!!!) Totally felt like a princess – can’t wait to go back! Looks like you are in the same boat!
I checked out your post on the Mayakoba Fairmont Resort; Mexico certainly has a variety of resorts and accommodations. Did you do any adventures off of the resort?
Les
this place looks fabulous! i love my kids but i really like the idea of adults only.
I was just there a year ago
had the best time ever and would love tp go again
Talk about something as beautiful as your Royal Hideaway in Mexico adventures. Calgon, take me away! Living amidst southern California’s cement and glass farm palaces, but now down in South Bay, I’d trade you in a heartbeat. Really, you ‘should’ do a small group tour. That ticket would be priceless! Thank you, Les. – Paul
Pretty nice.
Fanstastic post. I’ll keep this area in mind & look out for deals (will need to, to be able to afford the trip from Australia). Regardless, thnak you for showing it to us.
oh my god so gorgeous!
I live in Jamaica where there are so many all inclusives. This looks like a classy one.
Wow, looks like a lot of fun…but only if the food is up to par.
Anyway, looks like a place to add to my travel wish list.
Oh the food! That was one of the best parts; it was all a la carte dining. Each restaurant had a huge menu to choose from and nothing was buffet style or left out. It was amazing! For lunch one day, I ordered pizza, pasta, and fries and it was made fresh and quick.
I loved everything about the service.
NO BUFFET?!?….that may be a deal breaker for me; I love my morning breakfast buffet…
Just kidding, having a huge menu with great service is definitely going to make a good trip, a GREAT one. I just got back from an extensive business trip in Asia, and what made each day perfect was how it started at the hotel’s amazing breakfast service where the staff were happy to bring out anything I wanted….although they were unable to get one thing I wanted desperately… http://fedupfood.com/2012/02/19/its-crack-for-breakfast/
One of my favorites Resorts at Cancun Riviera Maya
SPECTACULAR!!! Who is jealous?? That would be me! Wonderful post! It was like taking a mini-vacation. And now I’m heading back to reality and the laundry…
I’m mentally vacationing there right now! That’s the best I can do
! It looks simply divine..one day…one day soon I hope!
I’ll vouch for Playa del carmen and Playacar any day. We go every year, and even spent a full month there in late 2010. Planning for 3 weeks next December.
Playa Del Carmen is a great vacation spot. Beautiful.
Wow, looks like the perfect vacation!
))))))))
Gorgeous photos!
I thought I had sworn off all-inclusives….now I’m tempted!
I love it. We checked it out awhile back. So inviting. Love the beach and pool. Humm time for a vacay thanks
looks a little crowded for my idea of a tropical paradise, but to each their own, eh! Great post!
Looks very nice, but I think I would have to rob a bank first!
I’ll think I stick to my budget travels 
I want to go now! What a lovely spot. Thank you for sharing the wonderful photos of the resort and the ocean.
My Bucket List is G R O W I N G
and my bank manager getting happy
Just out of interest – what time of year is quietest (and warm)!?
It is my great desire that I will not never achieve! Greetings from the Mediterranean!
Love this!! ;D
» Best of luck with your New Baby !
& I’m glad U liked my post (of my friend’s wedding day)!
wow! This is awesome! Some day I am So going there!
Paradise! Looks like the perfect setting to “un-plug”!
I can order a real cocktail without having to wonder if it’s “inclusive” or not? Now that is my idea of an all inclusive resort! Now, just need to figure out what to do about my 4 kids…..
Is the color of that ocean water for real??!!! Gorgeous. I’m grabbing my beach towel and heading there right now!
I’M SERIOUSLY SO JEALOUS I LOVE MEXICO
Awww it’s like heaven!!!!
Royal Hideaway Playacar, looks and sounds like a fantastic place to stay & play… I have been to Playa Del Carmen once but only for a few hours as it was a stop on the cruise my wife and I were on… I do have to say the beaches were awesome and have always wanted to go back and stay for a longer time and this all inclusive resort looks amazing… Hmmmm maybe my next vacation spot…
I may just faint from the overwhelming beauty in those photos. I could be very happy there.
Hmm. Relax or photograph? I’d have to burn up a couple of SD cards for sure.
That’s always one of my biggest dilemmas! I want to have lots of pictures, but I don’t want to waste my vacation taking them. I think we all need a personal photographer to do all the hard work for us
I want to go to there…
Just wonderful! I love Cancun and the Mayan Riviera… I haven’t been to this hotel though, but I’ve heard wonders of it.
Thanx for visiting my blog yesterday!!
Okay. On to my bucket list, this goes.
I always liked Mexico, did you play any golf while you were there ?
No golf while I was there, but it was a week packed full of adventure.
I played while I was there, but an excessive intake of alcohol the previous evening made sure the scoring was as high as the temperature.
WOW, beautiful images, im jealous of your travels! love the pictures!!
Oh those pictures make me want to go on vacation…instead, i have 120 hungry students to teach ;(
Also visit San Miguel de Allende. Beautiful town.
I absolutely love this. This place looks like the vacation I need right about now. And just look at the view and the water.. crystal clear. Gotta love this post
