Best resort in Riviera Maya/Playa del Carmen?

Brandi

My boyfriend and I are going on a vacation to Mexico in May to celebrate graduating college! There are so many resorts out there with mixed reviews, I wanted your opinions! Looking to stay in Playa del Carmen or Riviera Maya area. All inclusive, beach access, swimmable beach, good bars and food. Must be affordable (no more than $300/night). Where did you stay and how was your experience?
