Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Puerto Aventuras
When the opportunity came for us to invest in a vacation property, we knew we had to choose some place that captured ALL the elements we knew we would need to have. It had to be a beachfront location, with beautiful water, family-friendly, close to area attractions, convenience and, of course, safety. After exploring Cancun, Cozumel and the Riviera Maya, we fell in love with the gorgeous white powdery sand, charming and safe resort known as Puerto Aventuras. The friendly people, breathtaking views, brilliant ocean bay and the many activities and adventures of the area make this the perfect choice for our family and yours! We will always treasure our memories of Puerto Aventuras.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Our most favorite activity to do in Puerto Aventuras is just to relax and enjoy the breathtaking views of the ocean and beach. The waters are calm as the bay is bordered by a reef, which makes it possible for our second favorite activity, snorkeling. Equipment can be rented right off the beach. We've seen all different colors and species of fish and even sea turtles! The children love the "Dolphin Discovery" program which is just a five minute walk from the condo. They have swam with the dolphins 3 times now, and it is a thrill for them every time! The dolphin lagoon is surrounded by twelve charming outdoor restaurants, for either grabbing a quick snack or indulging in a steak and lobster dinner. If you want to try the adventure of deep sea fishing, the marina is also a five minute walk from the condo, and we recommend "Captain Rick's Fishing Tours" for a morning or afternoon of terrific fishing. Your catch can be prepared by one of the restaurants for free! There are also many exciting attractions within a twenty minute drive. Visit Tulum to see the ancient Mayan ruins and gorgeous beaches. Xcaret is an eco-park that features sea turtles, snuba, underground rivers, butterly pavilion, and a spectacular Mayan cultural show. X-Plor is a brand new attraction featuring zip lines, exploring an underground paradise, and jungle exploration on an incredible amphibious ATV! The activities and attractions also include horseback riding, ATV Jungle Rides, shopping, enjoying nightlife in Playa del Carmen, scuba diving, or just relaxing under a palapa with an ice cold margarita.
This gated resort offers the following: Dolphin Discovery, swimming, snorkeling, full service marina, fishing tours, scuba diving, parasailing, spa services, grocery stores, shopping, pharmacies, Inte
Xcaret is an eco-park for the entire family. There are sea turtles, a butterfly pavillion, aquarium, an underground river to explore, a snorkeling/snuba park, monkeys, restaurants, and a Mayan Specta
You can find fabulous shopping and exciting night life in Playa. Or you can catch the motorized ferry for a 25 minute ride to Cozumel. There you can explore the island and do some shopping.
Owner's Map of Puerto Aventuras
My husband and I are native Coloradoans, however, we are defintely, "water people", and have always been drawn to the beach. We have four children, ranging in age from 3 to 16. We are definitely busy people, but whenever we can get away, of course, we choose to go to Puerto Aventuras. Our passion is investing in real estate, and the opportunity to purchase this beautiful beachfront condominium in the most gorgeous location, was one we could not pass up! In fact, we loved the area so much that we also purchased the condo next door a year later. We truly believe that anyone who visits,will love this breathtaking resort as much as we do!

This condo property is very well-kept and secure. My husband, self, 2-yr old and in-laws stayed here for 10 days and had a wonderful time. The pool and beach is perfect for children of any age. This was our first time to PA (and my 15th time to Mexico), and we absolutely fell in love. Audra was absolutely wonderful to work with and helped with our stay. We will definitely be back! Thank you, Audra and Blue Caribbean!

We greatly enjoyed our time at Villa Del Mar! Highly recommend! Audra, owner, is fantastic at giving lots of information, being patient with questions and responding quickly - thanks Audra! Easy to find - we rented a car and felt safe and found our way around no problem. Very quiet (we were there off season, though!) ... not where you would want to go if you're looking for a happening bar/night life). Pretty, beautiful views from patio of ocean. Huge pool with excellent accommodations next door at Omni hotel. Enjoyed everything about our visit.

Just returned from a week vacation with my husband, and 3 children, ages 12 to 18. Before we even arrived, we were pleased with the booking experience. Great communication, lots of info from Audra. Can't say enough about the condo, spacious, clean, beautiful view. The pictures on this site really don't do it justice. OK, it's the little things with us, I brought hangers because there are never hangers when we go on vacation, this condo had more than enough, didn't need to use our own. Nice beach towels also. Having the very nice cleaning ladies twice while we were there was a bonus, we got a kick out of the towel art. Nice to have a large water jug in the kitchen, replaced whenever we requested. The complex is very nice, beautiful well kept grounds, the pool is huge! There was always plenty of shade and chairs. We really liked that security recognized us as new our first day and asked what condo we were in, Jose, very sweet. The second day he knew all of us and what condo, that really did make us feel safe. Truly felt safer here than Florida, :) Two minute walk to the Marina, felt like a movie set, so pretty. We are really going to miss our lovely and relaxing outdoor dinners. Betty at Blue Caribbean is awesome! She helped us arrange transportation to Tulum, Yal-ku lagoon and then a nice restaurant in Akumal on the beach. We were fortunate enough to have her join us, (our choice) and she and David (owner of the transportation company) were informative, kind and fun. We learned so much more about the area by spending time with both of them, feel like we have friends for life. Wish we would have met them the first day, would have used them for more transportaion. We are looking forward to returning, would definately stay here again.
Owner response:We are so pleased you enjoyed your time in Puerto! Again, we wish we could've stayed a couple of days longer and been able to meet you and your family. And thanks so much for the information regarding the transportation provided by Betty and her husband - we'll definitely pass that along to future guests. We would love to have you and your family back for any future vacations! Audra

Audra - Just wanted to let you know that we had the most fabulous vacation in Puerto Aventuras. Your condo was absolute perfection and I truly believe that Villa del Mar is the best complex in the area. Everything was exactly as you had described and everything we needed was available. (only thing we would add would be a barbecue and a broom) The cleaning service and Blue Caribbean were great. Thank you so much for allowing us to enjoy your vacation home. I hope that we can work something out again in the future.
Owner response:Debbie - We are so glad you and your family had such a wonderful time - and we'd love to have you back for any future vacations! Take care - Audra

Dear Audra, We had such a wonderful stay at D204 that, as you know, we plan to return next year! The condo is light and airy, with all the "amenities"- tv (where we watched the Olympics) -dvd, stereo, a good kitchen, with a first-rate blender for making margaritas! The Villa del Mar staff is very attentive. We left the lights on in our rented car and wound up with a dead battery. A handyman quickly arranged to give us a jump!Villa del Mar has the deepest white sand beach in Puerto, and the pool is great for long laps. It's a 3-minute walk to "downtown" where a row of restaurants overlook a marina where dolphins swim and leap. Sam loved the all-you-can-eat ribs at Café Olé (which has good live music). For a fun "fix" of a crowded, dusty Mexican town, we went to Playa del Carmen and strolled 5th Ave. Favorites: a non-touristy jewelry store, "Idie"; the organic Mexican restaurant "Natural".I joined the gym at the Omni Hotel next to Villa del Mar (690 pesos, $60 for a month) which entitles you to pilates, stretch, cadio, spinning, use of the gym and 15% off food at the Omni (lively pool bar with sushi and nacho menu. Avoid the expensive mediocre restaurant)We enjoyed the Mayan ruin, Coba (less gentrified than Tulum). Also the Wednesday and Saturday farmers market at Akumal and breakfast at Turtle Bay. We meant to go to a cenote - but as the days went by, we became beach bums. Maybe next year.
Owner response:We are so happy you both had a wonderful month in Puerto! Thank you for booking another month next year - we look forward to having you back!

We had a fantastic time during are stay in D204. The condo is amazing...very roomy, has all the amenities, and the ocean view is spectacular. Our boys (ages 3 and 5) loved the zero-entry pool and beach. How wonderful to be able to let the boys play in the shallow, wave-free beach area without having to worry. This, by far, our most relaxing, stress-free family trip to Mexico. We would love to make this an annual trip!

Villa Del Mar is THE BEST place to stay! Our children loved the beach, marina and pools. We felt so safe. It's like having your own private paradise. The beach is not crowded and is very clean. The snorkling is always good because there are small waves, unlike most other beaches in and around Playa. My husband and I went SCUBA diving with a group from the Omni. It was one of the most diverse dives we've enjoyed. We saw eel, sea turtle, baracuda, lobster, crab, and every fish you could imagine. The 5 minute boat ride was especially nice! The condo is very comfortable and spacious. We enjoyed watching several movies from the DVD collection. My husband even found a book to read! Thanks for a great spring break!

We spent our week in Puerto Aventuras deep sea fishing, snorkeling, ATV touring, visiting ruins, participating in Dolphin Discovery, shopping, beaching and eating. Puerto Aventuras has the perfect mix of people, restaurants, and things to do. The people in Puerto were extremely friendly and helpful. We enjoyed these activites all while staying in this extremely beautiful and comfortable condo. We had a great vacation and a fantastic time!

We were very pleased with this condo. The condo was beautiful with a great view. I read in other comments that the pictures do not do it justice and I found myself thinking this myself. The grounds are kept so nice and clean. The staff at the condo worked so hard to keep everything looking so nice. Our family felt very safe and this was very important as it was our first visit to Mexico. A good value I thought.
