Tropical Casablanca

The hotel was, as everyone says, very clean and nice. The staff was very accommodating; they gave particularly excellent local seafood recommendations. There are, however, two main complaints. First, the rooms need something such as a radio, or any device to play music. The second complaint (ironically) is about the way the rooms shake at night thanks to the night clubs next door. You are eating bass until 7 am. We were there over Easter weekend, so that may have been part of it, but beware. You will lose some sleep because it is... more

My husband and I returned recently from an awesome vacation in Playa del Carmen. The trip was amazing and without any major glitches! Playa was a super destination for us. We are both hard working professionals (with no kids) and live by the adage “work hard play harder”. Playa fit the bill! Great beach, a ton of restaurants and shops, nightlife and touristy stuff. Our hotel was perfect for us. Great location and not huge like some of the all inclusive places. This place was small and intimate, close to the beach, like right across the... more

This hotel is located one block from the beach, on a quiet side street only a few blocks from the bustle of the main drag, 5th Avenue -- truly convenient to everything. There is a dive shop on site, which is *very* convenient for those 8:30am morning dives. It was the easiest dive vacation I have ever taken in the area: just get up, walk outside to be greeted with coffee and cookies while the dive shop staff set up my gear. Then, suit up, walk a block to the boat and wake up hitting the water. A low-cost transport from the Cancun... more

After checking in to another nearby hotel and having several problems with my room I walked around to check out a couple of other places and was lucky enough to stumble upon Tropical Casablaca. I felt as if Jose who was at the desk adopted me as he made the transition from my other hotel very easy and he was so accomodating. My room was large and clean with a fridge and small balconey. Best of all the bed was a very comfortable pillowtop - much better than most of the hard beds found in this area! The grounds are very pleasant with the... more

Dec. 20, 2006 Just returned fro two weeks in Cancun and Playa. The Tropical Casablanca is a very nice downtown small hotel. The managers are a couple from Canada (Niccola and Doug) who also run the Abyis dive shop next door. They were on site all the time and very accomidating The hotel is very clean with beautivul gardens and a small cenote with fish and turtles, There is no television and there was a problem with the hot water but they were installing a new hot water tank while we were there. Our room had two double beds shower, great... more

We stayed at the Tropical Casablanca for 6 nights in Novmeber 2004. We don't like to stay at the big all-inclusive resorts, so this was perfect for us. Just one block from the Blue Parrot, one block from the great beaches and one block from 5th Avenue. It has a nice pool and nice rooms. Very clean! The only thing it didn't have was t.v., but that was fine with us! It even had a small refridgerator in the room, which was nice for keeping our bottled water chilled. I think it was $40 or $50 a night for the room, depending on how many... more
