About this property

Luxury Playacar Penthouse with Private Rooftop Plunge Pool - Sleeps 9

Experience Playa del Carmen from a spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath penthouse at AWA Residence in gated Playacar, one of the area’s most desirable residential communities. With room for up to 9 guests, a private rooftop terrace, and access to extensive resort-style amenities, this penthouse is designed for families, couples traveling together, and longer stays.

The standout feature is the private rooftop terrace. Enjoy your own plunge pool, hammocks, shaded pergola, outdoor dining area, lounge space, and outdoor kitchen. It’s a comfortable place to start the morning, cool off in the afternoon, enjoy dinner outside, or relax after a day at the beach.

Inside, the penthouse has a bright, open layout with plenty of room to spread out. The main living area connects the kitchen, dining, and lounge spaces, making it easy for everyone to spend time together without feeling crowded. Large windows bring in natural light, while air conditioning and ceiling fans help keep the condo comfortable throughout the year.

The fully equipped kitchen includes generous counter space, island seating, full-size appliances, cookware, dishes, glassware, and the essentials needed for everything from a quick breakfast to a family dinner. The open layout keeps the kitchen connected to the living area so the person cooking is still part of the conversation.

The penthouse includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms, giving groups more privacy and flexibility than a typical hotel stay. The primary bedroom features a king bed, while the additional bedrooms provide comfortable sleeping arrangements for families and groups. Each bedroom is designed as a quiet retreat after a day exploring Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya.

Guests have full access to the amenities at AWA Residence Playacar. The property features a large main swimming pool surrounded by tropical landscaping, additional shared rooftop pools for adults, hot tubs, a gym, sauna, coworking areas, pickleball and tennis facilities, ping-pong, pool table, kids club, playground, walking paths, and landscaped common areas. There is also a pool bar with hours that may vary by season.

AWA Residence is located inside Playacar Phase II, a gated community with 24-hour security. Playacar is known for its tropical landscaping, walkable streets, residential atmosphere, and convenient access to Playa del Carmen.

The beach is approximately a 12-minute walk from AWA. From the property, guests can follow the pedestrian route through Playacar toward the beach entrance. Fifth Avenue, restaurants, shopping, nightlife, and many of Playa del Carmen’s attractions are also nearby, giving you easy access to the activity of town while returning to a quieter residential setting.

The location also makes a convenient base for exploring the Riviera Maya. Day trips to cenotes, Akumal, Tulum, eco-adventure parks, snorkeling, and other attractions are all within reach.

For guests who prefer to stay close to home, the penthouse and AWA amenities provide plenty of reasons to slow down. Spend the morning by the main pool, enjoy the rooftop in the afternoon, prepare dinner at home, or unwind in the evening from your private outdoor space.

The condo also includes practical features for longer stays, including a washer and dryer, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a full kitchen, and comfortable living spaces. A dedicated workspace and AWA’s coworking areas make the property a good option for guests combining vacation with remote work.

One assigned gated parking space is available for the penthouse, with additional guest parking available in designated areas.

Guests receive access to our digital guest information with helpful details about the condo, AWA Residence, beach directions, local recommendations, transportation, and optional services. Additional housekeeping, airport transportation, grocery delivery, private chef services, and tours may also be available by arrangement.

Please note that AWA Residence is a residential condominium community rather than a traditional hotel. The front desk serves as the HOA property management and security desk and is separate from our rental management team.

About the host

Hosted by Luis

Host profile image
Years ago, during a family trip to Playa del Carmen, we discovered Playacar almost by accident. What started as a simple evening out turned into one of those moments that stays with you. We walked the neighborhood with our children, explored the paths, spent time at the beach, and quickly felt something different here.

Playacar had a sense of calm, warmth, and familiarity that kept drawing us back.

Over the years, we stayed downtown, near the beach, and at all-inclusive resorts, but we always found ourselves returning to Playacar. We loved the tropical landscaping, quiet streets, friendly atmosphere, and the feeling of being part of a real neighborhood while still being close to everything Playa del Carmen has to offer.

For our family, it became more than a vacation destination. It became a tradition. Our children grew up riding bikes through the neighborhood, walking to the beach, exploring the area, and making memories here year after year.

When we had the opportunity to own a home here, we wanted to create a place we would truly enjoy staying in ourselves—comfortable, practical, welcoming, and thoughtfully equipped.

We also loved AWA Residence because it combines the privacy and space of a vacation home with resort-style amenities in the neighborhood we have loved for so long.

Our hope is that your stay feels easy, comfortable, and memorable. Maybe you’ll discover a favorite restaurant, spend a lazy afternoon by the pool, walk to the beach, explore the Riviera Maya, or simply enjoy time together.

And perhaps, like us, you’ll leave already thinking about when you can come back.

Why they chose this property

We chose Playacar because it offers something that is increasingly hard to find in a popular beach destination: a sense of calm, space, and community while still being close to the best of Playa del Carmen.

The neighborhood is known for its tropical landscaping, quiet streets, beautiful homes, and gated setting. It feels residential rather than touristy, which is one of the things we have always loved most about it.

Guests can enjoy a relaxed morning walk, head to the beach, explore nearby restaurants, or easily reach Fifth Avenue when they want more activity. Playacar also makes a great starting point for exploring the Riviera Maya, including cenotes, eco-parks, Akumal, Tulum, and other nearby attractions.

For families, couples, and longer-stay travelers, the balance is especially appealing. You can spend the day exploring, then return to a quieter neighborhood at the end of the day.

More than anything, Playacar feels comfortable and welcoming. It has been a special place for our family for many years, and we are proud to share that experience with our guests.

We hope you enjoy the neighborhood as much as we do—and maybe discover a few favorite places of your own.

What makes this property unique

What makes this penthouse special is the combination of private outdoor space, thoughtful amenities, and the comfort of a true home away from home.

The highlight is the private rooftop terrace with plunge pool, hammocks, shaded pergola, dining area, lounge space, and outdoor kitchen—your own place to relax above it all. Add in a private balcony, spacious interiors, and full access to AWA Residence amenities, and you get the privacy of a vacation home with the convenience of a resort-style community.

We also pay attention to the little things that can make a stay easier: assigned gated parking, oversized beach towels, beach blankets, a cooler, boogie board, bottled water on arrival, USB outlets, nightlights, mesh Wi-Fi, Bluetooth speaker, and a fully equipped kitchen. Families can request a Pack & Play or highchair.

For longer stays, the penthouse includes a washer and dryer, cleaning supplies, laundry detergent, bath amenities, and practical everyday essentials.

Optional services can also be arranged, including airport transportation, grocery delivery, private chef experiences, additional housekeeping, and local tours.

Security and peace of mind matter too. The penthouse includes smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, digital safes, secure digital entry, rooftop handrails, and an emergency landline. The building offers 24-hour security, CCTV in common areas, elevator access, a backup generator, and controlled gated entry.

Our goal is simple: to provide a place that feels comfortable, well prepared, private, and easy to enjoy from the moment you arrive.
