The staff was amazing. This is not the Fives resort that we thought we had booked but it worked out. Not much for entertainment but was a relaxing vacation. Issues we did have were addressed ( door did not lock) upgraded us to an ocean view room.

Everyone at the resort was fantastic. The gentleman that represented epic for excursions was terrible.
Gave us $100 off to go to Tulum unfortunately my wife got sick the day before couldn’t go so they took the credit back. Then we try to go to following day, but the weather was extremely windy and rainy and he tried to charge me for the full amount of the excursion.
His ethics with dealing with customers is terrible and I would stay away from him in epic if you ever go to this resort, totally unprofessional. Besides that the resort staff, including Samuel were extremely accommodating and courteous. They’re the ones that made the trip a success.

I had the most incredible stay at The Fives Beachfront! From the moment I arrived, I felt so welcomed and cared for, but what truly stood out was how the staff went above and beyond to make me feel special on my birthday. They surprised me in the most thoughtful ways, turning my day into a memory I’ll treasure forever. 💖

The property itself is stunning — beautifully designed with breathtaking beachfront views. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious, with so much variety and attention to detail in every meal. The cocktails were a highlight, and I loved being able to indulge while enjoying the gorgeous setting.

The service throughout my stay was exceptional. Every staff member I met was warm, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure I had the best experience possible (special shoutout to Carlos and Cristina). The nightly entertainment brought so much energy and fun, and the spa was pure bliss — one of the most relaxing and rejuvenating treatments I’ve ever had.

This resort has everything: beauty, amazing service, delicious dining, vibrant nightlife, and ultimate relaxation. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday getaway. Thank you to The Fives Beachfront team for making my stay unforgettable. I can’t wait to return!

My wife and I stayed here for a week. OMG!!! We absolutely loved this property and everything about it. We loved that it is a small property and it's adults only. We loved the calmness and quietness of the property. No kids running around, screaming and crying. Haha. Every single staff member was incredibly friendly, great to talk to, they remembered our names or came up to us to get to know us.

The food and restuarant is top notch!! Everything is a la carte so you order off a menu. But you can get whatever you want and however much you want. The food at BeachFront is amazing!! Cleaning service came to our room twice a day to clean. Once in the later morning and again in the evening to prepare our bed and room to go to bed. That was awesome. The rooms are very comfortable, the bed was very comfy and we slept great.

One huge advantage about the property is you get to enjoy the Fives family property next door. This property we went to for other restuarants and all the night time entertainment activities. Do the beach BBQ. The meat station was so good. So many meats to choose from and cooked to perfection.

The only complaint about the Beachfront Hotel was there is no good beach right on front. It's all rock at the shore. You have to walk up to the other hotel and they have a small area there. However, many locals come to swim so they kind of take it over.

Our stay at this hotel was absolutely AMAZING!! We are already planning our trip to come back.

I really love this resort!
I was there for the first time last year and loved it so much I came back again this year as well.
All the staff is amazing, I stayed at the Beachfront (which I really recommend - it's adults only) and Mercado, Kevin, Melky, Jazmine and Ricardo really made my stay memorable!
I really recommend grabbing drinks at the Cantina 1910, the bartenders are awesome and make amazing drinks! Roberto was very nice and his attention to detail is impecable.
I feel like this year they really improved on the activities they offered - they had a sushi making class, pilates everyday, meditation, a cocktail class, even a breath work and ice bath! Entertainment was very good overall.
For the restaurants, the Koh Thai will always be my favourite, their Pad Thai is to die for!
Anyways, I could go on and on about this resort but I think once you visit it, you'll fall in love with it, just like I did!

The property was small. The staff was amazing and super helpful. If you’re going to just lounge around it’s great. The food was okay not what I expect when traveling to Mexico. I didn’t like that you couldn’t eat whenever you had to travel to the sister hotel more than I’d like to. Overall the staff made the place but I don’t think we will travel back. I actually left 3 days sooner and got another hotel.

We have stayed at a few higher end adults all inclusive resorts at this point and this one is at the top of the list for us. If you’re looking for somewhere to relax, unwind, forget about daily life for a few days, this is your spot. Drinks were strong with quality liquor. The food was good, not just for an all inclusive, but had good seasoning and quality ingredients. The property is beautiful and constantly being up kept. And the most important part was the staff. They are amazing from beginning to end. Ivonne was one of the best pool side waitresses we have ever had.

The food and service here are exceptional. I only wish they had more variety for the dinner and room service menu so that the resort was enough without traveling to the sister resort next door. I didn't enjoy my experiences at the fives except for the dinner at Arezzo.

The beachfront restaurant and pool and bar are all great quality. I didn't like that the resort is so close to a public beach access. When you shuttle to the other property you go through a back road which is not nice at all. It'd be nice if the two resorts being connected wasn't such an afterthought. A nice walking or shuttle path would be better.

I also thought the room was a bit odd. It was very nice and had a great balcony. But there was barely any furniture. I couldn't put most of my clothes away. And there was no where to eat in the room if we got room service.. The room was also very poorly lit I couldn't see much at night. Only dim lamps and overhead lights only in the shower and toilet room.

Overall a few little things that added up that weren't great but could easily be improved to make this place even better. It was a very nice stay overall with great service and amenities.

What a great find can not fault it staff & service is excellent, location great, facilities perfect, rooms clean and comfy.

And the main reason we selected the hotel was the a la carte and cocktails and they did not disappoint the food (especially the lunches) were superb as you’ll see from most of my photos. I even had time to relax and do a little sketch of the pool.

It’s a little hotel which we wanted as not a big hotel person but if you want the sister hotel is a 5 minute walk along the beach or a shuttle service can be used. We went over to the sister hotel but it’s just the same old large hotel with usual foods on offer that don’t come close to the food at the beachfront.

All the staff were fantastic but a special mention to Yvonne who kept us hydrated on the beach with water in the mornings and the mezcalitas in the afternoon. All the staff were great and I know I’ll miss some names but also thanks to Alex, Kevin, Gustavo, Saul, Eduardo, Omar, Jorge and many more….

Will defo recommend and we hope to be back next time we are in Mexico

We had a fantastic experience thanks to the excellent service throughout our stay. At the bar, Carlos and Israel made our evenings memorable with delicious cocktails and an incredible tequila tasting. Dinner every night was outstanding, and Jorge and Valeria consistently provided exceptional service.

All the staff and ambassadors we met were incredibly polite and friendly. The pool area was always spotless, with clean towels and well-maintained loungers. Whenever we wanted to visit the restaurants or areas in the other part of the hotel, transportation was readily available with staff waiting to assist us.

Communication was also excellent — we were kept informed daily through a WhatsApp group about wellness activities, special events at the pool and plaza, and daily menus.

The only downside was the beach area. Right next to the hotel’s beach was a public beach section where non-guests could gather. It often became noisy and littered, making it less enjoyable. I would have loved to swim and relax in the sea, but unfortunately, it didn’t meet my expectations.

Overall, my stay was very enjoyable, with the level of service at the Beach Front being exceptional. My only issue arose during my dining experiences at the Italian and French restaurants for dinner. The hostesses were not particularly welcoming and made us wait an excessive amount of time, despite our reservations and the availability of tables. This situation felt almost racially motivated. I brought my concerns to the attention of a female supervisor in the French restaurant on Sunday evening, but unfortunately, no resolution was reached. Despite this, I rated my experience highly because, apart from the two hostesses mentioned, the rest of the staff were excellent.

A boutique hotel with quiet vibes when we wanted and more lively options if we felt inclined. The service was so good. The concierge style what's app was just the cherry on the top.

This resort is fabulous! I chose Beachfront by the Fives on a whim, in search of the perfect place to spend my birthday on my first solo trip ever. I knew the service would be top tier from the moment I arrived to the airport. I received a WhatsApp message from my driver letting me know where to meet him. I was greeted by a handsome and kind man holding a sign with my name who drove me to the property. Let me tell you: the pictures online do not capture the beauty of this intimate property. I was completely blown away by the chic modern style throughout the resort, the close proximity of the beach, and the perfect layout of the guest rooms complete with waterfall showers. I loved how personable Miriam was upon meeting me for the first time. She setup a WhatsApp group chat and that was how the staff communicated with me to make daily announcements, make reservations, and other general customer service. I loved it! Every response was prompt and I didn’t have to ask for much. Special shout out to Enrique, Melky, and Jazmine for truly making my solo stay so safe and special. Thanks for the beautiful birthday surprise! A neat thing about this property is that it’s immediately next door to the main Fives Resort. You can go to the beach and walk over to the main property or ask the group chat to arrange for a ride by golf cart next door. They had very nice upscale activities, such as macrame making and Pilates on the roof. It gave a luxurious vibe. I will be back!

Amazing boutique escape

Absolutely delightful stay at the Beachfront. Quaint resort with only 42 rooms, but all the amenities and services one would expect at a five-star resort. The benefit of the boutique atmosphere is the attention to detail and level of service the staff provides. They knew us by name, quickly learned our preferences, and were incredibly attentive in all the right ways. The property and beach are immaculate and with all-inclusive access to the much larger sister property next door, there are plenty of dining and entertainment options. With our next trip to Playa del Carmen, we won't be searching for a resort as we know where wi will return to.
