Location was perfect to the Beach, 5th and the new Chedraui grocery store. We also enjoyed the view from the deck towards the greenery. We appreciated how responsive the property manager team was just to make sure we were enjoying our stay. So nice that everything worked i.e, A/C, WIFI, TV, Kitchen and comfortable beds..., Thank you! We will stay again. ##### Suede B. Stayed 8 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Clinton T. 11 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent apartment. Excellent host. This is the most well-equipped apartment we've ever stayed in. The beds were comfortable. We didn't use the outside spaces due to the humidity but they were lovely.We had an issue with one of the toilets during our stay but this was resolved by the host within an hour of us notifying them. I can't get a plumber that quickly at home :)Our only recommendation is maybe a darker curtain for the main bedroom as there's a street light across the road.Location is close enough to Avenue 5 to be walkable but not so close that you can hear much noise - and only a mile or so from the ferry terminal.Playa del Carmen itself wasn't really our cup of tea, but this apartment was truly excellent. ##### Clinton T. Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dana E. 4 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful! Recommend 100 % This place is large with 2.5 baths, 2 bedrooms, large living space, with wrap around open air covered porch. The managing group responded to minor issues even late in the night. Location is perfect with being 2-3 blocks to the beach and 1-2 blocks to 5th Ave. there’s lots to do and see. The condo is gated and has a friendly guard who helped us find the condo and parking space as we arrived late. Totally safe neighborhood. My daughter and I (female) felt comfortable walking 5th Ave alone late while exploring. And there’s a free parking spot and rooftop pool! Which is usually vacant. What’s not to love! Had a great Vacation! ##### Dana E. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne L. 16 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location & nice condo Condo was at it appears in photos - located on the 2nd floor with an outlook across the street to trees with many birds Corner unit with wrap-around balcony, nice sized kitchen with gas stove, comfortable furniture & beds, and nice decor. 24 hr security at gate made us feel very safe and there's parking if you need it. Roof top pool is on the small side, but was still nice. Downsides - obvious that this is not a unit usually rented as there was still owner's clothing in a closet and the kitchen had a lot of stuff in it - needed thinning out and some updating or just organizing it better for a rental. Unfortunately the WiFi/internet went out part way through out stay and was unable to be fixed. The property manager was excellent though - trying to get it fixed and ulitmately moving us (at our request) to a different property after 7 days with no WiFi. (needed for TV and internet) Very impressed with the property management company and their responsiveness. ##### Anne L.
