The Elements Condominiums are surrounded by wondrous beaches and luscious vegetation ... a place just steps away from the pristine waters of the Caribbean; a place of comfort which you can call your own, in the heart of Playa del Carmen on the Riviera Maya.
Located on the beach, The Elements counts with ocean views and hotel-like service. It has a tremendous pool and beautiful gardens located just off of the most tranquil and serene beach in all of Playa, yet steps away from 5th Avenue and the popular beach clubs. The Elements boasts a lobby staffed with management and concierge services. Above the lobby, you will find a full fitness gym, business center, and solarium with hot tub…all with ocean views.
With a semi-private elevator, this 2 bedroom/2 bathroom beachfront condo vacation rental is newly furnished and equipped...even beach towels and umbrella are provided. The unit has satellite TV, a multizone DVD player to play US and non-US DVDs, and wireless internet. The master bedroom has a king size bed with ensuite bathroom. The 2nd bedroom has two twin beds. There is a full size sleeper sofa in the living room which sleeps 2 for a total of 6 people. There is also a portable crib/playpen for an infant.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a stove/oven, refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and all you need to cook and entertain. There is plenty of closet space. The condominium unit comes with its own laundry room with washer and dryer.
Your Elements staff provides daily maid service, bottled water, local cell phone, and on-site staff and concierge to provide you with any support you require to arrange restaurant and tour bookings, airport transportation, delivery of groceries, private massages, or anything else you need to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Map & Owner's Profile
The Elements Beachfront Condo - Home Comforts, Hotel Service
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose The Elements
I found Playa to be the perfect Mexican getaway from the East Coast. New York is just a 3 and a half hour flight to the Cancun airport, and Playa is just another 45 minutes from there by car. I prefer Playa to Cancun because it has a much more international flavor and the types of activities offered vary to suit everyone's taste, from families looking to enjoy time together to singles more interested in the restaurants and bars. I love spending time there.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
The Elements is truly a home away from home, but better because it includes hotel services such as daily maid service and a concierge. Right on the beach, the property is located in the new part of town close to "Little Italy" and the more upscale shops and restaurants compared to those found near the ferry.
The unit affords all the comforts of home such as a fully equipped kitchen, flat screen TV with DVD, iPod dock, beach towels, and everything else you need to enjoy yourself. All you need to bring is a t-shirt, some flip-flops, a bathing suit, and a toothbrush.
A beautiful garden which includes yoga, nutritional cooking classes, and massages.
Playa's best kept secret. Natural Mexican food. Great for lunch or dinner.
Owner's Map of The Elements
I'm originally from Ohio, but I currently live in New York City. I've lived in 7 different countries including two years in Bermuda and I can honestly say that Playa is one of my favorite places to spend time. I speak English, Spanish, French, and Russian.
