We stayed in this same unit condo five years ago. We loved it back in 2010 and loved it even more this time! Playa Del Carmen has grown a lot since we were here last and the more recent, really nice development has been directly in this area of town. When we were here last, this complex was still a little bit off the beaten path. Now, it's literally right in the center of where you want to be! Right on the beach, but only a block or two walk to EVERYTHING you would need! All the best restaurants, shops, etc. are right there! But, this area is still very quiet at night so you'll get a peaceful night's rest. The condo itself and the complex are in fantastic shape! Beautiful gardens, awesome pool, just steps from the ocean. Also, the owner of the condo is great to work with and he provided us with a lot of suggestions on excursions, restaurants, etc. that a typical tourist would never know about. He seems to know a lot of people in Playa and it was kind of fun to go into these restaurants, drop his name and be treated like a VIP! Highly recommend this condo!
