Alcazar De Playa, " The Fortress," is a custom-built home located in Playacar, a resort community adjacent to the Village of Playa del Carmen, Mexico. The Playacar development is 800 acres of elegant, all-inclusive hotels, condominiums, private residences, golf course, beaches, and Mayan Ruins. From Alcazar, it is a short 15 minute walk to the Village of Playa del Carmen.
You will find five bedrooms, each with its own balcony, bath, and kitchen. Each uniquely decorated. On the second-floor, the master bedroom has a spiral stair leading to a private rooftop patio with views of the ocean. Also on the second-floor is a common open air sitting/recreation area with a palapa roof and ceiling fan where everyone can gather. The entire house is air conditioned.
Downstairs you will find the kitchen, dining room, and living room furnished with antique hacienda furniture as well as the foyer which has a library and television set. The large courtyard patio, which can be accessed from either the foyer or the dining room, provides privacy amidst lush tropical landscaping.
From here one can enjoy the adjacent swimming pool or the tennis court within 20 yards of the house. It's only a three minute walk to the beach or a three wood shot to the golf course. "Alcazar" occupants enjoy special guest privileges in nearby Ocean Reef Club. "Alcazar" is truly an elegant and spectacular villa.
Concierge service is available through our property manager who can address all of your needs including transportation, meals, shopping, sports activities and tourist information.

This was the first trip that we have taken with our four sons outside of Canada. The Mexican/Mayan experience for them was priceless along with the blast they had at the local watering holes. the house was a great home away from home.

Came for our 30th wedding anniversary. 10 adults and two toddlers. What a spectacular home. We never imagined Casa Alcazar to be such a breathtaking place. It was so nice to have privacy for everyone while having the option to be together in the common rooms. The beautiful pool was also a treat. We had it to ourselves most of the time which was very nice. When we weren't at our pool, we were next door at the Reef Club taking advantage of their pools and beach. As for the staff here, everyone was very friendly and hospitable.
