“Unser Aufenthalt im Paradisus La Perla war insgesamt ein echtes Highlight. Das 5-Sterne-Resort ist wunderschön angelegt und überzeugt mit einer sehr gepflegten, stilvollen Atmosphäre. Besonders hervorzuheben sind die Restaurants: Sowohl die À-la-carte-Restaurants als auch das Buffet waren durchweg sauber und boten eine hervorragende Essensqualität. Die Auswahl war vielfältig und geschmacklich auf hohem Niveau – hier blieb wirklich kein Wunsch offen. Auch das Servicepersonal hat einen sehr positiven Eindruck hinterlassen. Alle Mitarbeitenden waren stets freundlich, aufmerksam und äußerst zuvorkommend, was den Aufenthalt zusätzlich angenehm gemacht hat. Leider gab es auch ein paar Punkte, die den Gesamteindruck etwas getrübt haben. Unser Zimmer (1402) war sehr hellhörig – insbesondere die Eingangstür scheint hier nicht ausreichend schallisoliert zu sein. Direkt gegenüber befanden sich zudem ein Fitnessstudio sowie ein Personalbereich, in dem regelmäßig Strandhandtücher sortiert wurden. Das führte teilweise zu einer deutlichen Geräuschkulisse. Zusätzlich befand sich vor dem Zimmer eine kleine Ausstellung mit Instrumenten wie Bongos und Rasseln. Diese wurden von anderen Gästen leider häufig ausprobiert, was besonders abends und nachts störend war. Ein weiterer negativer Punkt war die Abreise: Die vereinbarte Abholung mit dem shuttle hat leider nicht funktioniert, sodass wir kurzfristig ein Taxi organisieren mussten. Die entstandenen Kosten (ca. 80 Euro) versuchen wir aktuell zurückzufordern. Sowohl vom Hotel als auch vom Reiseveranstalter hätten wir uns hier mehr Unterstützung gewünscht. Abgesehen von diesen Punkten war der Aufenthalt jedoch rundum gelungen und sehr erholsam. Mit kleinen Verbesserungen im Bereich der Organisation und Zimmerausstattung wäre das Erlebnis nahezu perfekt. Fazit: Ein traumhaftes Resort mit exzellentem Essen und herausragendem Service – mit leichten Abzügen bei der Geräuschisolierung”

“We’ve just returned from an unforgettable stay at Paradisus La Perla in Playa del Carmen, and honestly, words and pictures don’t even begin to do this place justice. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The hotel itself is absolutely stunning—immaculately clean, beautifully maintained, and with so much attention to detail throughout. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and had everything we needed for the perfect stay. The food was incredible, with a variety of restaurants to choose from. What truly made the experience stand out though, was the staff—everyone was so friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and they really went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time. We can honestly say we couldn’t fault a single thing. It was worth every penny and more, and we’re already wishing we could go back. If you’re considering staying here—do it. You won’t regret it!”
