I agree with everything you posted. I did a week in Mazatlan summer of 2016. It was not my scene. The beaches were nice but it was basically a mexican tourist beach destination.
We hit a club themed like an airport near the marina at night that had some hot local women. Other than that I was not impressed.
I have hit lots of places in Mexico and I always come back to Playa Del Carmen. It has great beaches, easy day trips (cozumel, isla mujeres, cenotes, Tulum) and there are loads of tourist girls from all over the world. Its a walkable place so no need to fight rip off taxis like Cancun. PDC is just easy in and easy out. Good food and Sports gambling too.
I live in Colombia so PDC ticks all the other boxes I miss while in the land of hot women! Still need to checkout Cabo but for now its PDC.
