This was our 4th trip to Playa and having stayed at the same all inclusive previously, we decided to switch things up and try something new. As soon as I saw the photos in the listing, read the description and reviews I knew this was the one for us!
From the moment we got to the Plantation House it felt like home. Seriously. My kids immediately fought over who got the bed and who got the couch upstairs in the mezzanine because why share the huge four poster queen bed?
The apartment looks just as the listing photos showed and additionally there were plenty of kitchen pots, pans and the such if you wanted to use them.
The beach itself was a short walk down the street, we went to the beach club one day and then down to the open beach by Mahekal several days which was a 15-20min walk but well worth it.
The best parts for my kids though were that there was a pool right out the door that they could use from 9a until 10 or their bedtime. (Sorry to all the other wonderful guests who graciously laughed at his echoing pool antics, we appreciated you!) The other thing my daughter loved the iguanas right off the back porch. She'd go out everyday and check them out.
Joe was very quick to respond with any questions we had and the cleaning staff were wonderful as well!
We would definitely stay again at the Plantation House, we had a marvelous and remand family vacation which was exactly what we needed!
