The BEST place to stay in Playa Del Carmen

My husband and I and 4 teenagers stayed in this house for 2 weeks in April 2011. I had never used VRBO prior to this vacation and will now use nothing else. The house is exactly as described and could not have been cleaner. The owner and the management company that take care of you while you are in Playa are extremely helpful with anything you may need. The location of the house is ideal as it is less than a 5 minute walk to 5th avenue and the beach. The pool in the backyard is a bonus! Always clean and we were usually the only ones using it. A couple quick trips to WalMart, $7 cab ride, kept the house stocked with any food and beverages required. BBQ and all appliances worked great! I would highly recommend this property to anyone travelling to Playa Del Carmen. You get the best of both worlds, close to all the excitement and everything you want to do yet enough privacy and down time having your own house and yard. I would highly recommend this property and hope to return there myself in the near future.

Excellent Condo to stay at in Playa del Carmen

My family of 7 stayed at this condo for a week, and we loved it! Lots of space, and very comfy...almost like being in our own house. And you can walk to downtown Playa del Carmen. It's nice to park right outside the front door too. Only downside is the stairs to the upstairs bedrooms, it's a little trek up there. But if you are able to make the trek upstairs it's worth it!! The bedrooms are huge and there is a bathroom for each room. It was nice having a full kitchen with all the dishes and appliances. And the washer and dryer was a big plus. My family was very happy with our stay there and would stay again if we are in Playa again.

Perfect location,easy drive from the Cancun airport and the many great activities the area has to offer.It is the ideal combination,being able to go to the Reef Club and use their facilities, beach chairs,jet-ski,parasailing for a great day in the sun and then return home to relax in a quiet and spacious environment.Our family of 5 includes 3 teenagers, everyone could find space for what they needed, homework,t.v. or more sun by the pool. The villa is very clean and well equipped. Brad is knowledgeable about the area and easy to communicate with. The on-site manager responds quickly to solve problems and the Concierge service is there to help if you need more info. The downtown is an easy 5 minute walk with a good selection of restaurants and shops, no need to worry about driving or finding parking.Wonderful holiday,would love to go again.

We came as a family of grandparents along with parents and grandkids. The 7 of us enjoyed staying at the villa. The kitchen is great with all needed to prepare meals. The dishwasher and washer/dryer were appreciated. We walked everywhere and didn't use a car. We took several trips and organized them ourselves getting tickets at the local bus depot. Brad made sure we had all we needed for comfort. Lots of helpful materials were sent and are available at the villa. Loved the pool and ease at getting to town and beach.

Our family of 5 stayed at the villa in Nov. and it was fantastic. Tons of room, great pool (pictures don't do it justice) walking distance to everything. Brad and Rodger were amazing, Brad's recommendations are right on the money! Thanks for everything, will stay again. The Mitchell Family

This is a great villa, perfect location, spacous, would go again. Our group had 7 people and we didn`t feel crowded at all. Also had a wedding reception there and everyone thought it was perfect. The kids enjoyed easy access to the pool and we took walks downtown every day to shop or go to the beach. Highly recommended. Caretaker was very helpful, cell phone a great asset.

Very nice villa, good location, very clean and spacious, short walk to 5th ave. The kids loved the pool and the yard. Neighbors were very friendly. We had previously done all inclusive resorts for our vacations, but after this experience, we will definately want to rent this place again next year.

The condo was wonderful, it was very clean and well maintained - it exceeded our expectations. We stayed two full weeks with out family of five. The full kitchen and utility room with washer and dryer proved beneficial. The property managers were very helpful and freindly. There was lots to do in Playa del Carmen- the ambiance. in our opinion, was better suited for families than Cancun. We also found that the cell phone provided was very helpful. Brad provided advice that was helpful so we could male the most of our vacation.

We stayed here for 10 days in June, 2006. The property is new, is conveniently located close to the beach and to 5th Ave. in Playa Del Carmen. There were only 2 of us so the property was very spacious. The complex here has private security, we saw them often on their rounds. We enjoyed our stay here and would recommend to others and would stay here again. Bill Tom

We stayed at this villa in early April of '06 for a week. It was wonderful! Even nicer than the pictures show. The villa is very spacious, clean and has all the comforts of home. It is located close to downtown and the lovely beach. There were 7 of us and we never felt crowded probably because each bedroom had its own bathroom. The pool was very nice too and it usually felt like our own private area. The only drawback to our vacation was that the shops were kind of expensive (relative to other cities in Mexico), probably because they have so many cruiseship customers coming through, keeping prices high. The owner, Brad, was kind and helpful. We heartily recommend this place to anyone.
