  • We stayed in Alcazar in July of 2008. We were a party of 9. 4 adults 5 younger adults. The unit for the most part was comfortable. However, we did have a problem with the Air conditioning. The units are old and they did not provide confort from the heat at night. I was under the impression from the caretaker that this is a problem, however, he did not say so directly. The caretaker was very nice and was only a phone call away. The house was cleaned every other day. Everyone was very nice. We spend a few days going to the ALL inclusive. All in all we had a nice time. The unit is very unique and Playa Del Carmen is a great place and I would go back again.

  • La maison est extrèmement agréable et super pour 10 personnes car les 5 chambres sont en fait des studios avec coin cuisine et salle de bain. Nous avons bien profité de la piscine et son environnement, le fait qu'elle soit commune à plusieurs maisons n'est absolument pas dérangeant.

  • Dearest Bernie and Pam, I guess the third time visiting Playa was such a charm! We came back healthier, happier, and hopeful again! What is in your water? It seems to have a fountain of youth effect, making us feel younger and sexier! It was harder to leave this time, we are so grateful to you both and your wonderful casa. Your hospitality is so gracious and fun, and we can't wait to come again! Thank you for encouraging us to have a vacation and for offering your wonderful sanctuary away from the States, with our good friends, where one can't help but feel renewed and re=energized! It is only fair to mention, whenever we come, we seem to become so amorous with each other, it is such good therapy......for a long a happy union ....31 years and looking forward to another 31 years together, thanks for helping us feel relaxed enough to enjoy the simple pleasures, and for the ambiance of a romantic setting! We seem to unwind, talk more to each other, hold hands again, and forget all of our anxieties. All our gratitude, Love, Mary and Michael PS. Eat at Manny's! look up at the full moon, and don't forget to have a drink and dance your heart out at Capt. Dave's on the beach!

  • Alcazar is a beautiful home, has everything you could imagine. We had 8 people and it was very roomy. A beautiful setting to sit by the pool or on the patio and enjoy drinks with friends and family. The surroundings are georgeous. Larry and Janice were of tremendous help, we had the kitchen stocked before arrival (good idea). Victor was helpful with any arrangements you might want and he was always available. No need to rent a car, you can get a cab right outside the the house or leisurely walk the 20 min to town. There are "many" new and wonderful resturants. Great food!! Capt. Dave's on 10th & 8th is a must--fun, fun, fun. Thanks Bernie for "popping in", it was great and my birthday was the best. Can't wait to return.

  • Eight of us just had the most fantastic time. RENT THIS HOUSE!! It is better than the pictures...large, decorated beautifully, and immaculately kept. The grounds are wonderful....lush and private. The pool sparkles and is just steps away. The bedrooms all have private balconies and baths and there is such a feeling of openness and freshness about the place. Highly recommended is that you ask Larry and Janice to have the place stocked with food and drink prior to your arrival. Victor is wonderful with arrangements for anything and anyplace you want to go...the cab drivers really show up when they say they will!! Fabulous restaurants and shopping within walking ( or a short cab ride) distance...... We are already awaiting our next trip to this very special place.

    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.

  • Bernie and Pam, What a wonderful treasure is your home in Mexico. Thank you for sharing it with us and giving us a tour of a Mexico we have never seen. Fish tacos, riding in the back of your truck, snorkeling in the Cenote (with the beautiful sculptures),interesting conversations on your patio and drinks and music at Capt. Dave's on 10th made our vacation so memorable. The restaurant suggestions of Il Pescadore (Happy Birthday Pam!), and dining at the Argentinian flank steak place I would highly recommend. Our son John & Anne said the time they spent with you was also a highlight of their trip. Again Thank You for your hospitality. Art & Joann Leo

  • Alcazar is a truly wonderful home with a location close to town, yet private with a beautiful garden, private pool and the home itself is very well appointed - each bedroom having its own private bath and kitchen. A true jem for anyone to enjoy with family or friends.
