Pros and cons of The Fives Beach
PROS
- An easy taxi ride and you can be anywhere you want. Shopping at Playa del Carmen? You can even go twice a day… Visiting water parks? In a snap! Exploring Mayan archeology or underground caves? Super close! We believe location here is key.
- Their restaurants offer astounding options that will surely coddle your tastebuds. Tour the world from your table with dishes from France, Asia, Italy, and Peru… you can even participate in the preparation of a traditional Mexican meal, just like visiting your Mexican Abuela! (grandma). A paradise for foodies.
- They go all-in for the kids and teens! Crafts, classes, fitness, playgrounds, pools, and even spa and beauty treatments for pampering the whole family together. Baby amenities in the room include high chairs, a stroller, a baby monitor, and steam sterilizers. You can leave them all at home and pack light.
CONS
- The property was designed to be a condo, so the layout may be different from any other beach resort you visit.
- Same reason there are no direct ocean views from any room. Maybe if you have a top floor you can get a glimpse of the ocean, but not really.
- The resort is located right next to a popular public beach. If you visit during the weekend, chances are there may be locals and visitors enjoying the beach.
The Fives Beach and COVID
The Fives Beach Resort complies with all local and international sanitary regulations to keep everyone safe and healthy. Hygiene protocols include sanitation of surfaces, reduced capacity in certain crowded areas, and the use of open-air spaces as much as possible.
The staff undergoes checks of body temperature several times a day, and the use of face masks for the staff is mandatory. These are all very standard procedures nowadays in most resorts.
Rooms and Sections
Rooms and suites are super airy, wide, and spacious. The decoration is very modern with a touch of Mexican style here and there. They are divided into buildings so you have the sense of being in your own large apartment surrounded by gardens and pools.
Being designed like a condo, you can enjoy extra space and amenities in most rooms. Residence accommodations provide a separate living room area with a full kitchen, a fridge, and a dining area to gather the whole family.
Rooms can accommodate from just 2 adults in the Deluxe Room up to 6 adults and 2 children in the Three Bedroom Residence. You can bring together the whole gang!
The Beach
The beach here may not be as wide and long as other properties in Playa Mujeres Complex or Cancun, but for sure is one of the best beaches in Playa del Carmen.
This beach has continuously received since 2018 the Blue Flag Award, following strict environmental, conservation, safety, and accessibility criteria.
Also, runners will be happy to learn there is a long stretch on either side of the resort, and the place is filled with swimmers training for open water competitions, kayaking, and practicing many sports very early in the morning. In case you need any fitness inspiration!
Food & Drinks
This is something worthy to be explored! Food and drinks truly deserve a special mention for their diversity and creativity. Here you can go as elegant or as casual as you wish. Let’s book a romantic table for two at Arrezzo for Tuscany-style pasta or La Brasserie for a French classic dish paired with a lovely Merlot from the south of France.
For the whole family, let’s visit El Mestizo for a traditional Mexican dish, or Sea Olive for a relaxed lunch on the terrace with the flavors of the Mediterranean. If you are looking to challenge your tastebuds, Koh Thai and Oka Sushi bar will provide Asian classics in a modern and Zen enticing environment.
La Casa de Rosa is an interactive, on-demand culinary experience that will make you feel at home. At your Mexican home. Here you will be part of selecting the ingredients, preparing the dishes, and serving the table. listening to traditional music, and playing local games. *Service must be booked via concierge at least 24 hours before the experience, extra fees apply.
If you are thirsty by the pool, you don’t even have to leave the water to get your pina colada. Float directly to the swim-up bar or get your order from the pool concierge. Looking for an appetizer? The lobby bar serves specialty gins and martinis, and Cantina 1910 is a contemporary Mexican bar with impressive decoration, serving local beer and the largest Tequila and Mezcal selection!
Before calling it a night, make sure you visit the Sky Bar to chill after dinner and gaze at the stars from the terrace.
Activities, Sports and Kids Club
At The Fives Beach Wedding Resort, you can participate in many aquatic or land adventures. Try aquaerobics or water bikes by the pool, or dare yourself to kayak the ocean or take a scuba diving clinic.
Join a tennis class or simply enjoy live music, impersonator shows, and games and trivia contests organized by the staff.
The kids will have a great time at the Kids Club Playhouse with the many fitness classes and programs, crafts, kid’s pool trampolines, and many other supervised activities. Kids Club is open until 9 pm, so the grown-ups can enjoy a romantic dinner worry-free!
Exchange Privileges
Staying at this resort won’t really guarantee you access to any other Fives resort, but with so many things to do and see, and with shopping at the Main Plaza on-site, you will find very few reasons to leave this place!
What makes this resort different from other all-inclusive resorts
