Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2003

I have owned and rented out homes in Mexico for the last 15 years. I have a passion for the country and the people and one day plan on spending a large part of my retired time there. I have never had a guest show up at Casa Blanca that was not blown away at just how nice it is and how friendly the staff is. We hope you will stay with us.

Why the Owner Chose Playacar

Playa is so multi cultural. It is the least Mexican town in Mexico. I only say that because Spanish is just one of many languages spoken here. The cuisine is incredible diverse also. The pedestrian mall really slows things down and keeps downtown more like a village.

The Unique Benefits of this Custom New Home

Privacy and luxury come to mind first. It is a gated guarded neighborhood so you do not have the normal beach traffic. People cannot get into our neighborhood unless they belong there. The staff will make you feel like you are rich and famous. They do your shopping for you and laundry etc.

    • We visited Casa Blanca recently, and wanted to take a moment to share with others how absolutely wonderful the experience was for us. There were 2 families in our party (9 people total), and we had our pick of beautiful rooms to spread out in. All of the staff was friendly and very accomodating, and Curt Henderson truly provides a home away from home by allowing people to spend their vacations at Casa Blanca. The home itself was gorgeous, the kids loved the pool along with the option to walk down to the beach. And, the ability to prepare our own meals (with Curt's great suggestions!) was invaluable and saved us a ton of money. We can't wait to visit again!

    • Casa Blanca was just as expected and more based on feedback reviewed from previous renters prior to our visit. We were not sure what to expect even after reading the reviews but were pleasantly (I mean pleasantly) surprised with the accommodations. We had two families in our party and there was plenty of room for everyone, and then some. The cleanliness of the house inside and out was refreshing. We have stayed in the area at several of the all inclusive resorts and were a little leery of a private residence. However, from the taxi (van) ride from the airport to Casa Blanca, to the house manager to the house cleaning services this is truly a turn-key rental. Steps from the beach, a quick 5 minute walk to town to the recommendations on restaurants and fishing made this an easy vacation. Forget the all inclusive resort; we had a better time at Casa Blanca with GREAT friends. These same friends rented a private residence on the Pacific side of Mexico a year ago and had nothing but bad things to say about their experience. They could not believe the beauty, location and safety of Casa Blanca. One local restaurant: H & C Meats, (they are closed on Mondays) worth the short walk and VERY tasty (follow Curt’s recommendation here!). We had food delivered twice during our week long stay. If/when we return, we will stay here again if available. The FangCoba families. (August 2009)

    • Our entire party thoroughly enjoyed your beautiful home in Playa del Carmen. Miriam and Julian were polite, efficient, helpful and friendly. The area in the Playacar development is quiet and secure. The beach was beautiful. We found the accessibility to Fifth Ave and the other attractions very easy. The locals were also very nice and a lot of fun. Felipe and his driver's were on time, informative, and helpful. Thank you so much for allowing us to change our week. We will highly recommend you beautiful home and Playa del Carmen to our family and friends. Yours truly, Jo-Ann & Kevin Reall

    • Paradise in Mexico = Casa Blanca!!! Our family of 7 (which included a very active 2-year old) enjoyed a beautiful time at this perfect location. The cleanliness and comfort of Casa Blanca makes you feel safe and right at home. We enjoyed the chef services (Carlos & Tani) of Epicurian Catering. They were very affordable and it was so much more convenient not having to pack everyone up to go to a restaurant in the heat of the day. I honestly feel we saved money and definitely saved time. Every single meal was delicious and Carlos even explains the history of the dish! Casa Blanca is only a short stroll to the beautiful beach or to the main part of the city to enjoy a refreshing gelato, or some of the local culture, and bargaining. This visit was better and more enjoyable than any "all-inclusive" vacation we have ever purchased! We highly recommend staying at Casa Blanca with your family and friends. We could have invited another couple as we didn't even use one of the complete bedrooms. Every bedroom has it's own bath room. You won't be disappointed if you stay at Casa Blanca!!!!!!!!!

    • We recently (April) had a group of 8 people stay in Casa Blanca for a family vacation. What an awesome vacation-beach home this is! Just a mere 1oo foot walk from pristine beaches and the beautiful carribean ocean! The home itself is beautiful yet very comfortable at the same time. Most of our time was spent in the bath water temperture pool and the attached hot tub, although we found ourselves in the fully equipped kitchen as well. Normally we would have enjoyed most of our meals out, but we found ourselves preparing many of our own meals not wanting to leave the comforts of Casa Blanca. A beverge and a relaxing sit up on the roof top deck is not to be missed. What incredible views! Julian, the house manager is the best. Whatever you may need from adjusting the temp of the hot tub, bringing groceries and beverages or just stopping for a friendly "Hola", he is just awesome. All of Casa Blanca's attentive staff will make your vacation even more relaxing and memorable. Don't forget to ask "Carlos the Chef" to prepare a gourmet meal for your group. He is a great guy with a terrific sense of humor. He is very reasonably priced and it will be an experience you won't soon forget. In short, we cannot say enough about "Casa Blanca" and we cannot wait for our next vacation there!

    • Of all the years my family (6 adults, 5 children from 1 to 7) has vacationed in Mexico, this was the trip everyone enjoyed the most. The house easily accommodated all of us, it is clean, well maintained, well furnished, and charming. There is lots of room for communal gatherings, and plenty of space for personal space as well. The cleaning lady, Judy, the house manager, Julian, and the pool man could not be more agreeable. The pool and hot tub are right at your fingertips and are also extremely clean and well maintained. This was our first trip to Playa Del Carmen, and we found it much more user friendly than Cabo, where we had been used to vacationing. We didn't need cars, we were in walking distance of town and the beach is literally steps away. Felipe's transportation to and from the airport is clean, dependable, friendly, and economical. It's so much more pleasant to be in a house than at a hotel where three meals a day are eaten out and down times are spent in often stuffy and worn rooms. The grocery store is a cab ride away, and when we did dine out we followed Curt's excellent recommendations. Our Casa Blanca vacation was voted by all as the best and we look forward to returning.

    • I have purposely waited a bit to communicate to you how much we enjoyed and appreciated your home. I wanted to present sincerely. We (the whole fam) have always admired Casa for the last five years we have vacationed in Playa. Your guest book praises the quality of the property and its surroundings. Undeniably, your house and its location are the most attractive we have had the pleasure of enjoying. Your guests truly are representing it as it is. Your Management team does a fabulous job of looking after the house as well as its guests. Trust me! We have stayed in other houses where there is less attention to detail. So be assured your dollars are well spent. The pool man was there each morning tending to the pool and the gardening. The housekeeper was very respectful, efficient and courteous. Your house manager, Julian, (spelling?) I may have his name incorrectly, was amazing and helped us get the girls to their flights on time with taxi rides. As promised. Great work. Great thought was given to all its appointments and design. Most of all, it was a very comfortable, livable arrangement. We had a total of 8. My 19 year old daughter and her 3 girlie friends stayed in the lovely suite upstairs. I know, pretty romantic for college girls, but with all the primping and prepping for the Blue Parrot and Coco Maya, it was pretty much a given. It worked perfectly with all its amazing storage and of course "princess space." They were pretty cute. The "first" night they all emerged from their beauty sessions with their wedge shoes and shorts. We walked a few paces behind them down Fifth Ave. That's all it took. One night of cat calls, "hey Barbie" and they were in flip flops from then on. A real hoot for old Mom and a huge relief for old Dad. You just wait! Also, I failed to mention that the kitchen was the best. We really loved it so much so thanks to you and your wife for making such a wonderful home in Playa for all to enjoy. The hubs and I are very much foodies and even though we dined out each evening, with teenagers in the house.... well you have to feed them. Do you shop at Dax for groceries? A few years ago I made friends with a Canadian who spends several months a year there with her husband. I know sounds kind of weird but she took me there this time and I really loved it. You probably already know about it and I'm not sure I spelled it correctly. Okay, enough rambling. Thank you again for the lovely accommodations and to your wife as well. My kiddo's enjoyed viewing your family's photo in the hallway. Warm regards, Amy Schleider March 21 - 28, 2009

    • We had a perfect time. The home and staff we just as described. We felt so secluded and safe in the neighborhood. It was just what the Doctor ordered. We will be back.

    • We stayed at Casa Blanca with several friends from Dec 26 - Jan 4, and it was a wonderful experience. The house is in a perfect location -- steps from a very nice beach, and with very easy access to the town. The bedrooms are lovely, and each has it's own bathroom. The kitchen is fantastic - very modern and up to date, and very well equipped. We cooked at home almost every night and really enjoyed it. We enjoyed the house so much that we rarely went into town. We would definitely return...

    • We have stayed at Casa Blanca 2 years in a row and our stay was even more marvelous upon return. It was a beautiful comfortable home with a tremendous pool and view...steps from a very quiet beach and so close to a tremendous town. I can't imagine a better place to vacation.
