Hyatt has just opened its latest property in Mexico, the Grand Hyatt Playa Del Carmen Resort, which is a Category 5 property located right on the beach. It does feature a Grand Club, so Hyatt Gold Passport Diamond members can take advantage of the lounge.

A little bit about the property:

Located on a privileged stretch of white sand, facing the turquoise waters of the Mexican Caribbean and surrounded by the energy and excitement of La Quinta Avenida – Fifth Avenue -, Grand Hyatt Playa del Carmen Resort intimately introduces its guests to the Bohemian vibe of Playa del Carmen, or simply Playa, as it is locally known.

The design concept by acclaimed Mexican architect Sordo Madaleno and award-winning New York based Rockwell Group has crafted original and memorable spaces with subtle characteristics of the spirit of the destination through natural elements, artwork, textures and light. The 314 rooms and suites create an apartment-style oasis with their floor-to-ceiling windows allowing for amazing views of the natural beauty.

Unique food & beverage concepts and signature offerings from our restaurants and bars will set the stage for you to enjoy the local flavors of Playa. Located along the Paseo, a large, open-air corridor that connects the entrance of the hotel all the way to the beach – our two restaurants and three bars/lounges are our own extension of the vibrant offerings of La Quinta Avenida.

Inspired by the Cenotes, a unique geological formation typical from the Yucatan Peninsula area that is a surface for pure subterranean water bodies, often connected to extensive deep underwater cave systems, the Spa at Grand Hyatt Playa del Carmen Resort is a true highlight. The spectacular architecture resembles the shape of a Cenote, creating the perfect environment to enjoy the variety of body and facial treatments and special packages for the retreat you deserve. You’ll also enjoy the hotel’s state-of-the-art fitness center where you will be able to keep your exercise routine while traveling.

It’s a Hyatt Category 5, so free nights are 20,000 Gold Passport points:

However, they are offering some great opening special rates starting at $199 per night, so in this case it seems like a better idea to pay than to redeem points.

Bottom Line
This is a great addition to the Hyatt portfolio whether you want to redeem Gold Passport points or pay for the rooms out of pocket.
