Casa Alegría is a beautiful and spacious marina-front, penthouse rental condominium in the gated resort community of Puerto Aventuras along the beautiful Mexican Maya Riviera coastline.
Casa Alegría is in the building Dzul, a 12-unit building (est. 2005) complete with a private swimming pool on the Puerto Aventuras marina. Casa Alegría is a fully furnished vacation rental condominium with two-bedrooms, two-and-one-half baths and private rooftop garden. The marina balcony overlooks the beautiful Puerto Aventuras fishing and recreational marina. The pictures in the photo gallery provide a sampling of the beauty of Casa Alegría.
The private rooftop garden is a special gem for all visitors - it includes picturesque views of the entire Maya Riviera coastline, a 4-person full-size freshwater hot tub, a shade pergola with table/chairs and a sunning area with chaise lounges and tables. On clear days, you can see out to Cozumel! The sunrise view from the roof garden is something worth waking up early to see - the birth of a new day every morning. Watching the fishing, scuba and catamaran boats going in and out of the marina is also fun throughout the day. The views of the stars at night with the sound of the ocean crashing on the rocks is quite the special experience and wonderful way to end the day!
Both bedrooms have spectacular views of the bright blue Maya Riviera coastline with sliding doors opening to a shared balcony - perfect for morning coffee! The sounds of the ocean waves crashing on the rocks is a wonderful way to fall asleep at night and the sunrise in the morning is breath-taking!
The kitchen is fully furnished with fresh drinking water and all kinds of utensils to support easy to gourmet meals. Basic spices are available for use by all visitors and stored in the refrigerator. A washer and dryer are also available in the unit. Laundry soap, dish soap and dishwasher soap are all provided.
Casa Alegría is a perfect place for couples or families looking for a special getaway - relaxed or full of daily adventures!

Why the Owner Chose Puerto Aventuras
Personal experiences - Lucille and her husband were married nearby in Tulum. Lucille and Karen have traveled to this area frequently in the past and enjoy all it has to offer.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Very convenient especially with the improved highway between Tulum and Cancun. We especially love investigating the area with day trips to find new beaches, towns and snorkeling hot spots.
The condo itself is good for the soul since it is literally surrounded by water - no matter which room you go to you can see blue - the rooftop is a very special place to all of us and we love the peaceful tranquility it provides.
The condominium Casa Alegria is located 1 hour South of the Cancun airport and 10 minutes South of Playa del Carmen in the gated marina community of Puerto Aventuras.
