Hyatt recently rebranded this property in December of 2024, so those returning to PDC might remember this as the Thompson. If you reserve the downtown location, it is literally in the middle of everything. The beach house is about 2 blocks away. Regardless of which property you reserve, you have access to both. The beach house is right on the beach. Both locations have pools and restaurants. The downtown location is adults only. The pool at the downtown location is stunning. It's an infinity pool that runs the length of the hotel, has a swim-up bar, and plenty of loungers/seating and cabana type rooms. The pool at the beach house is smaller, but also has loungers and cabanas. The staff at both locations are simply amazing and attentive. If you look closely, the downtown location does need a little maintenance and upkeep, but that is likely on its way with the rebranding. Regardless, I had not known about this property before and I will definitely be back. It's the best of both worlds being able to get a downtown vibe and beach house all at the same time.

Great place if you want to be central to everything you need. Having the bikes to use was an awesome addition. I really enjoyed my stay here and would recommend. I wouldn't stay here if you want a quiet place as you can hear the music and nightlife from the rooms, however they even provided ear plugs for those who need a quiet sleep.

The hotel is conveniently located in the middle of the main street, surrounded by restaurants and bars, making it easy to walk to various attractions. The rooms are spacious, nice, and clean. However, the beach is quite a distance from the hotel. It's not a straight walk; you need to go a few blocks to the right from the hotel and then a couple of blocks down. Essentially, the beach bungalows are separate from this hotel. If you’re specifically looking for a beach vacation, this hotel might not be the best choice for you, as the beach in this area isn't very appealing. On a positive note, the rooftop pool is quite impressive.

Beautiful property and excellent location. Staff were wonderful! Only thing keeping this from being a perfect hotel was that it was badly in need of maintenance. Pool was missing tiles, only had 3 umbrellas and most of the chairs needed replacing. For a Hyatt, they have enough money to invest to keep this amazing property looking great! The rooms were in better condition than the rooftop and pool but needed more pillows. Still highly recommend staying here but Hyatt must invest in maintenance!!!

The property is perfectly located off 5th and conveniently located within walking distance to almost anywhere you want to go. The staff is amazing, Alfie at the front desk was polite, informative, and always pleasant. My room was spotless, well maintained daily, and very comfortable linens and bed. Only minor inconvenience was when I was first trying to locate the hotel on foot, google maps wants to send you to the downtown house and not the beach house, so I walked around until I found someone who was able to give me better directions. Definitely will stay there the next time I’m in Playa!
