    An amazing find, this place is not really on Party street but that is all I could locate on the…read moremap. iI your on highway 27 head east from Progresso towards Telchac. At about 8 klm you will see a big Corona billboard on your left, keep going for about 3 klm more. The last indication I can give you is that you will pass a police stop, from there (1 klm more) keep an eye out for the sign, it will be a rather small sign on your right which will read Margaritas, follow the road to the parking space behind the restaurant. This little piece of Paradise has reopened in Dec 2014 after extensive renovation, and it is absolutely breath taking. Here you can come and sit on beach chairs to contemplate the ocean, or relax among beautiful palm trees whilst napping in hammocks, or simply sipping a pre or post dinner cocktail. The menu is short but each and every item on it is prepared with skill using fresh delicious ingredients. Over the course of several visits we have sampled the following, Greek salad, fish filet with garlic, ceviche, ham and cheese on baguette, and even a pasta putanesca along with their home made apple pie a la mode. All of the above have been outstanding and we have become addicted, the staff is made up of of 4 lovely, friendly and helpful people who take great pride in making their guests happy. The owner who we have yet to personally meet is very friendly (according to other people we know who have had the pleasure), and wants to keep this place very small and intimate so don't expect to see crowds. In fact you may be all by yourselves or sharing the company of only a few other people, the service is very laid back, they will even give you a bell so you can set the pace for yourself. I hesitate to say much more because I have to admit I do not want this place to become too busy, as it is a hidden gem and an unforgettable place to visit. p.s. Cash only no card accepted, but they do have free hifi, for those that need it.

    A great find. Simple, very pretty, delicious fresh fish, actually everything my Partner Doug and I…read more, AND our guests, have had on 6 visits has been delicious. Close to our place @Villas Wayak. Service was correct and at a lovely beach speed. We are on our way down to Wayak from NY Hudson Valley, next week to get our Villa ready for Winter, and are looking forward to Margarita's , more than a few lunch's.To anyone who has not tried it, search it out, explore, and enjoy. We have.

    Playa Linda Hotel - Same view at night

    I'm torn between giving the Playa Linda Hotel a 3/5 star rating or a 4/5... On one hand, GREAT…read morelocation and beautiful views if you're facing the beach (which we were). We also had a balcony which was so fun and exactly what you picture having for a beachside stay. Also the friendly staff were welcoming and present most of the day - although a bit of a language barrier. My hesitancy on a higher rating ultimately comes from the noise level. I can understand the logical amount of noise from the street- it is after all a busy area and a vacation destination. However, within the hotel there's a lot of noise that comes from other guests. The walls must not be very insulated as we heard other guests' music all night, conversations, crying babies, and doors slamming very loudly, so much so it startled us repeatedly. Also, I don't know if it was just that it was the end of our trip and we were just exhausted or needing the comfort of our own space back home, but we simply could not sleep well at Playa Linda. The beds don't seem too uncomfortable but we tossed and turned every night. Also they didn't provide comforters which made it hard to keep the AC on without getting cold, yet too hot to not have it on. I think maybe I would've enjoyed the place more had we just had a 2 night stay, but after 4 nights we were ready for somewhere else. (Also, we noticed a lot of bugs accruing in our room by the end which was bothersome. Maybe we left our balcony doors open too long or our bananas were just too good :P fruit flies en masse, and the occasional mosquito who love me) But truly I would recommend the Playa Linda, especially if you snag a balcony room or just have a slightly shorter stay. We loved strolling down the boardwalk first thing in the morning and sitting out on the balcony midday for a rest and ambiance.

    Ok, I'm gonna start:…read more The staff was friendly. That was ok. The location was pretty good, just in front of the beach. Good too. My room. AWFUL. I don't gonna talk about the awful decoration because I don't really care about that, but my room (number 6) had A LOT of humidity. It was THAT bad that my laptop mac stopped working the second night. Yes. My mac book. Gone. I told them and they changed my room, this time to a better one, but still, no window, a lot of noise of people screaming on the stairs at night, nobody said anything to them. Well, at least it had an A/C and the bathroom was better as the number 6, witch was a cave. Somebody told me that the hotel was pretty new, that they opened a year ago or so. I can imagine that a building in front of the beach in Yucatan can get a lot of humidity, but this was another level. I can't imagine 5 years from now. I'm sure you would be able to snorkeling the floor. Oh, did I mention that I found water under my bed? Well, if you travel to Yucatan, congratulations, because it's amazing, but DO NOT leave your computer on that hotel, and if you do, put it in a plastic bag with a rice package inside to trap the water. Have fun!
