From family holidays to romantic getaways, discover a place of fun and excitement at Essence at The Fives Beach Hotel & Residences in Playa Del Carmen.

A glamorous beachfront resort, with a prime location close to the attractions and adventures of Mexico’s Riviera Maya. Along with tequila-infused cocktails at many poolside bars, plenty of dining options at mealtimes and live entertainment both day and night, you can look forward to complimentary use of snorkelling equipment plus scuba diving courses in the pool – and it’s all part of the five star All Inclusive package!

About Essence at The Fives Beach Hotel & Residences

On a half mile stretch of powder white sands, Essence at The Fives Beach Hotel & Residences delivers chic holidaying infused with the spirit of the Yucatán Peninsula. Set within lush tropical gardens that are sometimes visited by a local troop of monkeys, a collection of spacious rooms and suites are contemporary in design, complemented by fantastic facilities from several swimming pools – including one exclusively for the Essence section – and daily supervised activities for kids at the Aluxitos Play House to beachfront massages, just one of the treatments offered at The Fives Spa. As an All Senses InclusiveⓇ resort you can enjoy dine-around options for breakfast, lunch and dinner at 14 wide-ranging restaurants, as well as a gourmet burger corner and taco stand, and several bars including a Mexican cantina which hosts tequila and mezcal tastings.
