Map & Owner's Profile
Owner's Map of Luna Encantada
Hello from Susan Mattingly.
My husband and I divide our time between Denver and our home high in the Colorado Rockies and purchased two Luna Encantada villas in 2004. I handle the rental promotions for 14 out of the 24 Luna Condos and travel to Playa about four times a year to check up on my rental listings and try to discover new restaurants and activities that I can pass on to my guests. We chose Luna Encantada because it is absolute beachfront and right in the heart of everything you could ever need or want to do in Playa del Carmen. If you are planning a trip to Playa, feel free to call me about places to stay (I will admit I am a little biased on Luna Encantada), where to eat, and how to plan a perfect day in the Riviera Maya.

We had the most amazing trip while staying at the Luna Encantada Condos. Susan Mattingly provided us with incredible service and made our stay care-free. Our room in A1 was to die for. The incredible size of the condo not to mention the astonishing ocean view was absolutely amazing. I would definitely recommend a stay at this beautiful resort.

Just got back from Playa and this awesome condo. We really enjoyed this place, it was perfect, just the right size to mingle with the other guests. We made several friendships in our seven days that I'm sure will last for a long time. The condo, the beach and the location couldn't be better. Wish we'd had a little more sun and a little less clouds and rain, but all in all, this is the place to stay in Playa!!
