Location: Yucatan / Mayan Riviera < Mexico

Nearest Airport : Cancun Airport ($8 & 45 min bus ride to Playa) at 40 Miles
Car: not necessary
Playa del Carmen is in the heart of the Mayan Riviera midway between Cancun and Tulum. Take a 45 minute bus ride from the Cancun airport and spend the rest of your time on foot, as everything is walking distance. The Avenida Quinta (Fifth Avenue) has exquisite dining and shopping, but there's also nightlife and people watching. If you need to venture out, same-day tours are available to attractions as far away as Chitchen-Itza or similar ruins at Coba', or to see the whale sharks in Holbox, as well as the popular park areas of Xcaret and Xel-Ha. Zip lines, cenotes (fresh-water underground rivers), deep-sea fishing, and many other activities including scuba (same-day 'resort' certification is available) are all within reach and surprisingly affordable.

Reviews for this vacation condo rental in Playa del Carmen, Yucatan / Mayan Riviera

Playa del Carmen vacation condo rental rating 55/5
My own private Mexico (Playa del Carmen that is)
Missing U Playa!!  Houston, TX USA
Review Submitted: June 5, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
I have been back two weeks now and I am already dreaming of a return visit.

This oceanfront condo was even better then I imagined.

From the moment I pulled into the parking lot and was greeted by the friendly security / maintenence staff, I knew I was in good hands. They quickly introduced themselves and carried my bags to the condo and were on hand through out my stay to carry packges, groceries, etc...

The condo was everything I hoped it would be and then some. The Living / Dining room which are quite spacious were great for entertaining with the large flat panel TV, stereo / Ipod hookup, high speed internet and an added bonus was the Vonage phone service which was great for free long distance calls back home to family and unfortunately work.

The Kitchen was well equiped for most any occasion though for the most part the only appliance I can vouch for is the blender which was still running after 12 days and nights of non-stop use.

The 3 bedrooms were all very nice. The Master and second King both have Flat panel TV's which allowed the kids to hook up their video games they brought from home and stay clear of the "boring adults".

You are just steps away from the beautiful blue Caribbean and the wait staff from the beach club next door is their to serve you breakfast and lunch on your own private ocean front terrace.

As far as location goes, everything you could want or need is within walking distance form the condo and taxi's are cheap if you need to venture further away.

Along the beach you can find boats and crews to take you fishing, parasailing, jet sking, what ever.

If your lucky the owner might be there to personally check you in, he is a treat and a true Playa expert.

One last thing, try to plan your trip around the time the Moon / Luna is entering its full stage. As you and yours sit on the beach or terrace you will be gifted with a memory that will last a lifetime as it rises up out of the sea to the east and that wonderfully hypnotic glow that seems to dance across the waves takes over.

You will find yourself thinking like I did, how soon can I book a return visit.

I will be Back!!

Beachfront Condo
SharnB  Prospect Heights, IL
Review Submitted: May 5, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
This condo was great as it was really right on the beach....however, it was in the heart of a disco/hard rock/nightclub circuit which started loud music in early afternoon and continued until 5 a.m. each morning! Even with doors closed at night, you could hear the base booming....

If you want peace and quiet, this is not the place for you.

Also, if you're not a cat lover, beware...owner feeds a stray feline twice a day and she's always at your patio door seeking attention, food and entry to the condo.

Other than that, great view, walking distance to town, great resturants, shopping, and the ferry to Cozumel.

Property was clean and nice upon arrival, however maid service was never provided during our 6 day visit. We were under the impression that housekeeping would come in a couple of times during the week of our stay.

We also liked the 24 hour security posted on site...especially in light of the nightclubs and all night partying.
Owner's Response: What bothers me most about this review is that it seems like this guest feels misled. That couldn't be farther from the my intent. I email an orientation packet to all guests before their travel addressing all these issues.

The location of the condo is indeed in the heart of Playa, which has a thriving nightlife. Most guests are return visitors to Playa and realize this. Even guests who are families with small kids have shared my opinion that the bedrooms are insulated enough that normal sleep is not affected. I think perhaps this group of retirees just didn't have accurate expectations, and I hope all future guests now will as a result of this informative review/response.

My AquazulPlaya website has a photo gallery with 12 or so patio photos. There are at least 4 photos showing "Moto" the beloved cat. I refer all inquiries to this site as there are more photos than on HomeAway. This cat covers and area over a half-mile on the beach and will not hang around if you don't feed it or give it attention. My welcome materials clearly states that you don't have to worry about feeding Moto, as he will definitely not starve because there are so many people feeding him. However, most guests find this adorable and friendly cat a welcome visitor.

I was in Playa during this stay and was available to this guest, but was never asked about additional housekeeping visits. The HomeAway listing clearly states under "Onsite Services" as "Housekeeping-Optional". There also is in condo contact info for the onsite management company to schedule housekeepers. Professional, uniformed cleaning and maintenance crews are available, but they must be requested.

I am glad the 24-hour security provided comfort, but I must say that this is really just to patrol the parking spaces and beach chairs as Playa is not a place where there is a concern for personal safety. It is just not the environment for out of control party people or where other strangers might put tourists at risk.

I am concerned this guest feels cheated, and that is not at all the impression I want to leave on anyone that stays with me. A trip back to Playa doesn't sound like a great offer, as this area is probably not for her. Thus, I am offering her a free 4 night visit to my Watershed Cabins in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. I hope this reflects my desire to go out of the way to make all my customers feel satisfied.

Awesome condo

Review Submitted: November 30, 2008 Date of Stay: November 2008
Just arrived back home to Sweden after a 12 days journey to Yucatan. We stayed at this condo for 7 nights, but all other places/hotels we slept at were in relation to this condo really bad. We all referred to this place thereafter as "home".

I would recommend this condo to ALL people, family aswell as friends. We were 7 young friends that slept here and we all have just positive things to say about this condo. Also positive was the treatment by the owner of the condo as we met in person. If you are looking for a condo in Playa del Carmen or in the near, don't hesitate to rent this one.

This condo is FABULOUS! It is right. on. the. beach.

The owners spared no expense in furnishing this rental. It is comfortable AND luxurious.

Playa itself offers scuba, jet-skiing, para-sailing and various other beach activites as well great dining and night life.

This unit would suit families as well as singles.

Make sure to check out spiritair dot com for some great rates to Cancun.

I stayed in Playa for the fourth time with my husband and two of our friends in June. We stayed next door to this condo, and were fortunate enough to meet the owner. We spent time with him on the beach and hanging out with him in town. All the while spending time in the condo. It is gorgeous. We have seen the transformation. It is even more beautiful now than when we left. This place has all the emenities you could want. We look forward to spending more time there next Spring.
