Thank You, yes water shoes are a very good idea. There is rock to contend with when you first enter the ocean and some rougher areas when you walk north down the beach. Enjoy your vacation
Hi Shawn, thank you. The "tenors" show was performed in the beautiful lounge area and the stage shows (dancing and singing) were in their large auditorium just above the lounge. We did not see any shows by the pools.
I’m staying at the Yucatan Platinum next door on Aug 22nd, thanks for the info about the shows. I will have to look at their schedule & check out a show or 2 & thanks for the quick response…
Hi, thank you, we are happy you enjoyed our video and got some knowledge of the resort. Regarding platinum club, we did not partake in that service so can't give you fair advise. We were aware there are some nice extra exclusives (such as a private pool and 24 room service etc.) but those didn't entice us. Enjoy your trip
We did not experience any waits to book our reservations. We did the buffet the evening we arrived, immediately booked our next 3 restaurants for the next 3 days (which was the limit), then buffet again, and book restaurants for our remaining days. Helped that we went in low season. And no doubt It is very busy with Grand Sunset and Grand Riviera sharing everything. 🙂
Hi Paula The 5 restaurants mentioned in our video (and the buffets) were included in our "all Inclusive" package (we did not have a premium package) There are more premium restaurants which were likely nicer but not available to us. And there was one "Chill Out" that we could have gone to and paid for the meal. But we only had a 7 day package, so we stuck to the 5 + buffet and had something new everyday we were there. Cheers
Hi Sean, they will explain it to you at check-in, but they have a website and you login to the website and from there you can click to restaurants and reserve from there. The basic included wifi connection is very poor and frustrating to do anything on the web, (but eventually you do get through). But If you don't want to put up with the slow connection, they can sell you better Internet at $18 for 7 days per 1 devise. Enjoy your trip.
Thanks very much. It was our first time at the Princess, its a beautiful resort. Our usual stay is at the Riu Tequila in Playa which is also really nice and good food and good price. Its not located on the beach but you walk about the same distance to get to the beach as the princess (because the princess is so big and long lol).
Hi Nezar, It was at check-in that the person at the front desk told us it was 70 pesos one way. (Sorry we didn't actually take a shuttle to Playa). If you are going, and you have time, do follow up and let us know it's is free. Thanks for the info.
Hola Patricia, nos alegra que te haya gustado nuestro video y esperamos que disfrutes del Princess resort y tengas un clima perfecto. (We are Canadians y usamos el traductor de Google para leer su mensaje y respnder jaja). 👋
Hola Teresa, sí, es un resort hermoso y divertido y nos encantó el resort y Playa Del Carmen. (Soy canadiense, así que estoy usando un traductor para responder a tu mensaje).😆👋
@@gregmck1339 thank you! Is there an app to download for the restaurants at the hotel? And is it cheaper to book activities with my travel agency or at the hotel?
@@gerrym1093 - I believe it was through their website and then a login. They will advise you at the check-in. Note it's poor "free" wifi, it was frustrating connecting & booking restaurants. This trip we did not go on any excursions however if you go with sunwing they insist to meet you the next day and run through available tours etc. other wise, if you have the time, there were other booths available in the resort that perhaps were cheaper. ScubaCaribe is along the sidewalk, we did snorkling tour last year at different hotel (@$50 per person), very fun (and one of our videos haha). Enjoy your trip.

Great video! Saturday can't come fast enough! Would you recommend taking water shoes?
Thank You, yes water shoes are a very good idea. There is rock to contend with when you first enter the ocean and some rougher areas when you walk north down the beach. Enjoy your vacation
Hi, nice video & review! Question are the shows in a auditorium or separate hall? Or are shows performed in the outdoor lounge by the quiet pools?
Hi Shawn, thank you. The "tenors" show was performed in the beautiful lounge area and the stage shows (dancing and singing) were in their large auditorium just above the lounge. We did not see any shows by the pools.

Hi this is beautiful video, you covered it all. We are going in a month do you think platinum club makes a difference?

I heard there is a2-3 day way for reservations at the restaurant, is that true?
We did not experience any waits to book our reservations. We did the buffet the evening we arrived, immediately booked our next 3 restaurants for the next 3 days (which was the limit), then buffet again, and book restaurants for our remaining days.

Do they have tennis rackets at the courts or you have to bring your own?
Sorry we only walked around the area and saw the courts. We did not check out what was required to play actually tennis there.
thanks for the information, I've a question, the entrance to the restaurants is only for premium? or its included in "all inclusive" too? Thank you!!

Very good and completed review. Thanks
Your welcome Alxander. We live in Canada, and to beat the winter we try to get to Mexico once a year. It is always a great vacation
How do you book reservations for the restaurant? Is it through an app?

Great video! We have been to the Princess many times. You can pay more at other resorts, but you can't get any better!
Thanks very much. It was our first time at the Princess, its a beautiful resort. Our usual stay is at the Riu Tequila in Playa which is also really nice and good food and good price. Its not located on the beach but you walk about the same distance to get to the beach as the princess (because the princess is so big and long lol).
I just sent an email to the resort about the shuttle to the playa and they old me it’s free. I’m confused
Hi Nezar, It was at check-in that the person at the front desk told us it was 70 pesos one way. (Sorry we didn't actually take a shuttle to Playa).
If you are going, and you have time, do follow up and let us know it's is free. Thanks for the info.
@@gregmck1339 Hello, maybe they told me so just to get my booking and once there they will make me pay for it LOL
Yikes lol, I certainly hope that's not the case, (but even if it is 70 pesos, its not to expensive). have a good trip
Buen video, iré ahí dentro de 20 días espero divertirme igual, un saludo desde México 🤗
