Paradisus Playa del Carmen
Carefree fun for everyone
Catering specifically for families, Paradisus Playa del Carmen offers an excellent range of facilities and activities.
Paradisus Playa del Carmen is the family-friendly half of a twin resort, designed with all ages in mind. Think spacious suites with whirlpools on sun-soaked terraces, and exclusive Reserve upgrades with private pools and lounges. Little ones will love the colourful water park and creative clubs, while grown-ups savour sushi counters, sizzling teppanyaki, and churros by the pool. Here, every day is a new excuse for giggles, splashes, and adventures your family will talk about long after the suitcases are unpacked.
Why we love Paradisus Playa del Carmen

Treat your family to the Nikté Swim-Up Suite, where stepping straight from your terrace into the pool feels like pure holiday magic.
-
Lots of activities for kids including piñata making, pizza workshops, beach games and treasure hunts.
-
You have access to all the restaurants at Paradisus La Perla, many of which are adults-only.
-
Your 5th Avenue location means you’re in the best spot for shops, restaurants and bars.
Rooms
The 488 suites are centred on the pool and beautifully maintained grounds. Contemporary design meets home-from-home comfort with plenty of space to spread out and unwind together. This resort is designed with families in mind, so there are plenty of options when it comes to accommodation. We love the Nikté Swim-Up Suite for the ultimate family escape – and children will, too, when they realise they can get to their room straight from the swimming pool. These are in the exclusive The Nikté section of the resort, have a separate living area so you’ve got space to spread out, and a Jacuzzi out on the terrace. They come with the addition of a concierge service, so you can relax and enjoy your holiday knowing everyone’s well looked after.
