Lol-Ha ( Flor de agua). 2 bedrooms 1.5 bathroom

EduardoRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Excelente propiedad para familia, no es tan accesible sin transporte privado. Adecuado para actividades cerca de la zona. La casa y el amueblado de primera, sugiero que se puede hacer más placentera la estancia si hay disponible detalles como café, té, aceite, avena, y sobre todo agua para que las personas huéspedes beban.

Private house | Private Pool | Steps to Beach

KellyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Very clean, nice, upscale house with modern amenities. Comfortable beds, lots of towels, including beach towels. Public beach right around the corner, a 2 minute walk. The kitchen knives were actually sharp, something lacking in prior AirBNBs we've stayed at. Everything worked, coffee maker with filters and even good coffee stocked. Beautiful back deck with pool. We loved everything except for the washer/dryer, which didn't work so well. We let the host know about the washer and he was appreciative of the info saying he'd get the maintenance guys on it. I'd definitely stay again!

Beautiful condo in Playa del Carmen.

SivaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Fernando’s place is clean, central, and exactly like the photos. We loved the rooftop pool and massive hot tub; we went in early April and it was never crowded. The building was always staffed with concierge and we always felt safe. We travelled with an 18m toddler and while the Airbnb is not baby-proof, Fernando was able to accommodate a high chair and crib for a small fee. Having the washer and dryer in unit was very convenient. You can’t drink the tap water but fresh water is provided in those 5 gallon water containers. The kitchen is well stocked and even had a blender and kettle. We loved the supermarket named Selecto just a few steps away on 10th Avenue with fresh seafood, pastries, steaks, and lots more. Overall, we’d highly recommend this Airbnb to other travellers.

5 Star Vaiven Condo, 4 Pools, Gym, Beach Club

LillyRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Espacioso apartamento en un condominio residencial, familiar. La casa tiene todo lo necesario para unas vacaciones, muy bien equipada. Muy sencillo y claro el ingreso. Además tiene un estacionamiento bajo techo para un vehículo. Quizás la ubicación observación es que la playa está un poco alejada para ir caminando; aunque se puede ir en bici.

This was the best place I have ever stayed. Everything was nearby, so even though it rained heavily, I could access everything on foot. The interior space was exactly as shown in the photos, and it was very clean. I was very satisfied with the value for the price.

Nomads Oasis 1BR Apt Downtown at The City Condos

BrandyRating, 5 stars9 months ago
This was an AMAZING location for convenience!! Best taco place in playa (El Fogón), lots of other restaurants, an organic market, and major supermarket all right on the corner! Carlos was absolutely THE BEST host ever!! I accidentally locked our passports in the safe day 1 and he made it happen to get it open so we could enjoy our vacation!! He gave TONS of recommendations!! I loved that the property had a balcony and there were beautiful plants everywhere!! I love to travel and I’m always so excited when I find a bnb that actually has a comfy bed!! The bed was large and super comfy!! The place was clean and there was even some cold water for us when we arrived which we were grateful for!! The beach and 5th Ave are each about 15 minutes walking or a short 3-5 minute taxi ride. The taxis were $3-$10 depending on who you ask and which way the wind is blowing 😂 (with tip we never paid over $175 pesos) Overall we had an amazing stay and I would absolutely recommend to stay with Carlos!

Condo Sits Right On Beach! Steps to 5th Ave & Maid

DustinRating, 5 stars6 months ago
If you want a fantastic beachfront condo in the heart of Playa del Carmen, this is the place for you. It's a 2-minute walk to the beach and a 2-minute walk to 5th Avenue. It's maybe a 10-minute walk to the Cozumel ferry. You can't beat the location if you want to be in the city. The condo, the view, and the beach were excellent and felt luxurious. All of the staff we interacted with were professional and friendly. When we booked, we were a little nervous about the noise, knowing it was near some beach clubs. We could hear the faint sound of music when going to bed, but it wasn't a big deal. We had no problems relaxing in the condo, even though we were in the middle of the city. Bottom line - this place was incredible!

Romantic 1 BR Condo w/ private Jacuzzi!

JillRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Patricia’s place at El Taj was wonderful. It was exactly as she described in the listing, even the warning about the fishing boats and lack of beach. All of the amenities provided were welcomed. The restaurant attached to El Taj served as a beach club for the guests. The food (optional) and service from them was top notch. The gym is in a neighboring building that is only a couple of blocks away. It is a very nice gym with fitness classes offered. El Taj also offers included water fitness classes twice a week, which were excellent and well-attended. Most nights it was a quiet location, but one the weekends some noise could be heard from the nearby beach club. It wasn’t enough to keep you awake though. Fifth avenue is just a couple of blocks away. Patricia was very responsive with any questions I asked. She responded within 10-15 minutes.

Oceanfront PentHouse at Mareazul-Casa Alba

AllisonRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Our family had a wonderful vacation at Jamie's Mareazul vacation home. The home was beautiful, clean. The view of the sea was spectacular and even more beautiful than the photos. The resort is accessible and high quality. The restaurants were expensive, but convenient. It is a bit of a hike to PDC, but the location allowed for a quiet, peaceful vacation away from the noise. Jamie was an excellent host. She responded to every question promptly and was extremely communicative and helpful. I cannot more highly recommend this location!

Your guide to Playa del Carmen

All About Playa del Carmen

Playa del Carmen is having its moment in the sun – this trendy resort town on the Mayan Riviera has only grown in popularity in recent years, and it’s now one of the largest and most bustling cities in Quintana Roo state. People watch along its always-buzzing beaches and take to the water to snorkel the second largest coral reef in the world, brimming with lavender sea fans and tropical fish. On dry land, Playa del Carmen’s central location makes it a great jumping off point to explore Mayan ruins nearby like Chichen Itza.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Playa del Carmen

With a whopping 340 days of sunshine on average per year, there is never a bad time to stay at a vacation rental in Playa del Carmen. Dry season — December through March — is also typically the busiest season. The summer months tend to be hotter and wetter, with rainfall averages peaking in September, and hurricane season popping up from June through November. For those looking to join in on the round-the-clock festivities, head here during typical school holidays (over the holidays, March break, and July through August). If you want to catch the Riviera at a quieter moment, spring and autumn are generally less busy. Regardless of when you go, you’ll be greeted by mild weather, warm waters, and lots of sun (even during the rainy season).


Top things to do in Playa del Carmen

Cool off in a cenote

Cenotes – mystical-seeming pockets of still water formed from collapsed caves – are a natural phenomenon unique to the Yucatan Peninsula. The waters range from sapphire blue to emerald green, and they can be located amongst Edenic gardens or cavernous, stalactite-studded tunnels. Thought by the Mayans to hold magical properties in their waters, swimming in a cenote can be an otherworldly experience.

Admire Chichen Itza

Chichen Itza needs no introduction — this UNESCO World Heritage Site is really anything but new. The wondrously preserved Mayan temple was built sometime around 750 AD, and served as the area’s most important urban center until 1200. If you make it here in time for the spring or autumn equinox, watch in awe as the sun creates a show of a serpent — a revered Mayan symbol — slithering down the pyramids.

Dance the night away

Playa del Carmen is known equally for its nightlife as it is for its beautiful scenery, so spending a night or two on the dancefloor is practically mandatory. You can make your way from club to club along the resort strip, or opt for a slightly more laid-back but no less lively evening of live music under the stars at one of many bar terraces. Regardless of where you go, you’re pretty much guaranteed a good time.
