  We stayed there for a week from August 8th, 2009. The condo is in gated communicty called Playa Car. The condominium building itself also has a guard. So, we felt safe completely. The unit is off the beach so it was also very quiet. We rented a car from Cancun and drove over to the Condo. We kept the car in the designated parking spot. When we went out, we either used car or cab. Cab cost us 50 peso to get to town. We went to the Reef ($40/day) and went to Cozumel for one night. We were able to really enjoy the local foods and local shops at Playa. We were also able to cook our food when we wanted. Playa has Wallmart and a few other mega stores and you can pretty much get anything that you need. Washer and Dryer were nice althought it took us a while to understand how to use it. We were also having difficulties in TV, but our kids had a prenty time to read books. The pricing of the condo was very reasonable. With extra money, we enjoyed many water sports such as jet ski, diving, wind surfing, parasailing, etc. The unit has one designated parking spot and we had no trouble. Also, taxis are always waiting in about a few minute walking distance. If you are looking active vacations, this is the place to be. Also, Nick was helpful. The condo is back in the Playa Car gated community. So, make sure you bring the map that Nick provides.

  We had 8 excellent nights in the condo. It is located at the calm area Playacar, a pleasant walk from Playa del Carmen centre, beach, super market and Reef hotel. I warmly recommend to rent this!! Only problem were that airport taxi drivers were not familiar with the area, so it took some time before we found the house. Bring printed driving directions, and you will be fine.

  Our one week stay was wonderful. The condo was just as described and worked out perfect for us. Close to Playacar resorts and 5th Avenue. We didn't have a single hitch our entire stay at your place. Washer and dryer came in handy for all the sandy beach clothes. We also spent one day at Reef Club and had a great time doing so. Thanks for all the help and information you gave us to make our Playa trip easier.

  The unit is very comfortable, very reasonable price, we stayed there for 10 nights, it has 3 bedrooms, very nice furnished, very comfortable beds, it has a lot of details that talk very well about the owners, like a cellular phone which is there if you want to use it, some basic groceries that you dont have to buy, a lot of towels, etc. etc. The possibility to enjoy the beach club is also great, the Reef hotel is super nice, has 3 pools and a great beach. The condo is peaceful and secure and you can enjoy a perfect moment lied on the hamoc in the terrace, overlooking the condo,s pool and the vegetation, hearing the birds, is totally calmed. The condo is in perfect condition of maintenance. We enjoyed it very, very much!! We would take it again on next vacations, or highly recommend with no doubt. Thank you Nicolas and Francisca.

  My friends and I rented this condo in April and it was perfect. The use of the beach club was a bonus, it was near to everything you needed and there was even friendly neighbours living in the complex. The Guzmans were great to work with and I would certainly rent from them again with no hesitation. This is the second time I have used Home Away and have had great success.

  My family just spent Christmas and New Years in Playa and it was spectacular. The condo is very nicely equipped with everything one needs. It is gated and the grounds are well tended. Seems like a lot of renters and ex pats living there. Taxis are available 24/7 around the corner and we always took one to 5th. A little too far to walk. The Reef club was really beautiful and we also used the SPA, which was top notch.

  Owner response: I am glad to hera you had a good time. I love the SPA too! and of course the beach club. Let us know next time you visit playa, we offer great discounts for return clients. Thank you for your comments.

  We stayed here for 1 week in March and had a blast. The owners were very helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had before we left. There were 4 adults, 3 kids(12,10, and 1 1/2), the condo was spacious and was in a nice location. The washer and dryer were key, didn't have to pack as much. The people living in the complex were also very friendly and helpful. It was a 15 min. walk to the resort and about the same to downtown. We walked in the mornings and usually took a cab home ($4-5). The Reef club was nice and we did the all-inclusive one day, but spent most of the time at the public beach just down from 5th ave. Overall we had a great vacation with tours(check around for prices!), beaches, and a great condo. We hadn't left Mexico and were planning our next trip and this would be our first choice. Thanks again!

  This was the 2nd time we have stayed in Penthouse Romeo. This was a extended trip for us, Jan. 2nd to Jan. 18th 2009. We had our 2 adult kids and their significant others along this time. Penthouse Romeo is in a great complex in Playacar. You get access to the Reef Club which is a great resort right on the beach. You have the option of purchasing an All-Inclusive option at the Reef Club for $35/day. We did that many times during our stay. The Condo is clean and roomy with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, full kitchen and washer and dryer. It's about a 15 minute walk into PDC and 5th Ave. Sometimes we walked, other times we would grab a cab, about $5. Owners are great. Highly reccomended for an, "Off Beach" alternative to the pricy beach resorts.
