We spent 3 nights at the Gran Porto the first week of September. Most of the storms that came thru stayed inland. The water clarity off the beach at the hotel is poor but walk just North of the hotel and find the best beach in Playa. Walk two blocks West and you are on 5th ave, the main shopping district, which runs all the way to the ferry dock. The staff were friendly and helpful (this comes from someone who spent his younger years working in the tourism industry).
If you plan on shopping, do so in the morning as there is not much of a cooling breeze in town.
We are splitting our vacation this year between Cancun and Playa, but will be spending 4 nights at the Gran Porto!
