I was with my wife at the hotel for a week by the end of April 2013. Our experience was close to perfection. It would have been perfect, if it wasn't for the service at the restaurants and for the need to walk around with money to tip (or it would be even worse). Let's start with the positive aspects....

I felt so lucky to have vacationed in this absolutely pristine resort. My husband and I got to travel often and I have to say this was probably the most pristine, relaxing, beautiful resort ever. On top of that the service was great and the food fantastic. We both dropped our jaws when we saw our rooms. Spacious, relaxing, beautiful... More

This was my first time to Mexico and my wife and I made the BEST choice ever staying at Blue Diamond. Overview: To begin, Once you get there the stress from NYC life automatically melts away because you enter into an escape environment. This Hotel is carved out of the jungle and wiggles its way to the amazing beach with... More

I'm so thrilled we came across this gem of a resort. Small Luxury Hotels knows how to do it right! We would go back in a second! I won't write a long review but will tell you that it's very private, the food is amazing and I'm a "foodie", the staff and service is excellent. It's not a crowded party... More

Everything about this resort is fabulous. The service, food, accomodations, the property were all top notch. Every single staff member we encountered was genuinely professional and friendly. Every snack and meal we consumed was pretty to look at and even better to eat. The room we had was more than we expected and spottless. The property was so clean and... More

We chose the Blue Diamond resort for our honeymoon based on the recommendation of friends of ours who also booked through Jetsetter.com. We had the patio junior suite and noted in our reservation through Jetsetter that this was our honeymoon and we'd like a more private room (ending in numbers 7 or 8 as our friends suggested) that did not...

This hotel is amazing! The service is the best I've ever experienced, the food is sensational, and the rooms are beautiful. Blue Diamond is definitely worth the money - you are treated like royalty from the time you arrive until the time you leave. We stayed in a cenote suite and it was huge! My only regret is that I...

My husband and I visited Blue Diamond in Playa del Carmen the second week of April. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by Jesus (an affable young man, engaging and eager to improve his English) and realized immediately that we were about to have the experience of a lifetime. As we entered the open air lobby tranquility and balmy breezes... More

Place is great. The grounds are beautiful and perfectly maintained. No fault to the hotel but beach is rocky and not perfect for avid swimmers but they do a great job to make it perfect for loungers. I think dinner should be improved both at ambar and aqmarina. Ambars menu is fancy and diverse but the taste is just good... More
