HOTELS
For those of you who plan a longer stay, but do not wish to extend their stay at Le Rêve more than the two nights of the wedding, or for those who come with children and cannot stay with us, Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya have a huge number of hotels and resorts for all tastes and all budgets. We have gathered below a selection of addresses, that we hand picked because of the good deal, their location, or the quality of the service offered. You will find even more choices on tripadvisor if you want to compare by yourself. Once you have selected a place to stay, don't hesitate to use tools such as hotelscombined.com - new bargains or specials can be put online frequently. Tripadvisor also often proposes to check rates online using several motors. Be aware that sometimes prices do not include taxes, or an additional guest, and that you will only know the final price once you click on "check out" or "book it".
