4BR villa in Playa del Carmen

Casa Karma Beachfront Bliss, Playa del Carmen, Mexico - Villas for Rent in Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, Mexico

We have stayed at dozens of places in many countries. This is possibly the best we’ve stayed at. The quality of the internal furnishings and spec is superb. It is spacious, airy, cool, and has a view to die for. It felt super-safe, relaxed and luxurious. If we lived on this continent we’d be back annually. Our host, Karla, made everything very easy, the cleaners came or didn’t as we wished, and in short it was so lovely it was hard to leave to go see anything else.  Perfect.

The house was a dream, the beach was too beautiful. We were very comfortable, the house was fully equipped. I recommend it to spend a few fabulous days at the beach!

La casa un sueño, la playa era demasiado hermosa. Estábamos muy cómodos, la casa súper completa. La recomiendo para pasar unos días de playa fabulosos!

Very nice location. Easy walk 10 minutes beach walk to the ferry and 5th avenue is about 15-20 minutes walk.

Beautifully situated house, just as advertised.  Safe, quiet, comfortable.  Every possible amenity:  bathrobes, yoga mats, paddle boards and more.  Direct access to a beach with little seaweed and no rocks (our third trip to this area of Mexico, so we know other beaches have these problems).  We were six adults and two small children (one year old, three year old).  We spent many hours on the terrace enjoying the view and pool.  Pool was small but perfect for kids and great as dipping pool after the beach.  Kitchen was well-stocked and equippeed, but a little cramped for a family that likes to cook.  It helped to have a car for grocery shopping and because the distance to most restaurants was too long a walk for our small children (and adult with bad ankle).    Karla and Oscar were very (almost instantly!)  responsive and helpful.

It was a wonderful experience staying at Casa Karma. The house had everything you could possibly need. Very well appointed. The location in Playa Del Carmen was perfect, especially if you plan on visiting the water parks. The community is guarded and very safe and quiet. The beach is just steps away and it was beautiful. If any concerns regarding the price, you definitely get what you pay for. Would definitely stay again.

We had the pleasure of staying at Casa Karma for an entire month, and it was an absolute dream! This beachfront house exceeded our expectations. Location: The location is unbeatable. Situated in the tranquil Playacar neighborhood, you're just steps away from the beach. It's also a short walk to the vibrant Quinta Avenida, where you can find an endless array of shops, restaurants, and bars. The House: Casa Karma is a true oasis. The house itself is beautifully designed and decorated, which perfectly complements the beachy surroundings. The rooms are spacious and airy, and the beds are incredibly comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped. Amenities: One of the highlights of Casa Karma is the pool and the deck. It's so close to the ocean you feel as if you are on a boat. Host: Karla is incredibly welcoming and accommodating. The house staff is extremely responsive. Overall Experience: Our stay at Casa Karma was nothing short of amazing.

Excellent stay, very walkable location to Centro, and quiet peaceful neighborhood.

The house is very unassuming from the outside, which is great. But once you step on the inside, this house exceeded my expectations. The attention to detail, the good taste of decor, and the perfect spaces, not too big or too small made our vacation memorable. Every room was perfectly appointed with an en-suite bathroom, and we also had a half extra bathroom. Karla and her person in charge, Oscar were there when we needed them. Everything was of good quality, from the linens to the soaps. The main bathroom is a jewel, has a Totto bidet toilet, shower, and tub. The kitchen has all that you need. Motorized shades, good diming lighting... and the view of that amazing turquoise color water were the perfect settings. Will love to come back!

What a gem! I’m already plotting a return to Casa Karma. The house is beautiful and thoughtfully arranged. The location can’t be beat - it’s both beachfront and a short walk to shopping, restaurants, and services. The plentiful towels and linens in every room plus a fully stocked linen closet made my heart sing because isn’t it the worst when hosts are stingy with linens?! There are pillow types for all preferences (down, memory foam, big, small). All rooms are equipped with remote controlled blackout and light filtering shades, effective AC units, dimmable lights, and speakers. It was so peaceful to gaze out over the pool and watch the waves roll in. The pool area has two showers so it was so easy to play on the beach and then clean off before entering the house. Karla was responsive as was the local manager. The chef recommendation for Arturo and team was sublime - they were so friendly, professional and talented. The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking but trust me, hire Arturo.

Casa Karma has a fantastic location right over the beach. The sound of waves hitting the beach and the cool breeze was mesmerizing and calming. The villa has been thoughtfully furnished with excellent quality furniture and fittings. Smallest details have been taken care of. The property management was extremely responsive and especially Oscar. They even responded after hours on the weekend.

We had an absolutely wonderful time! The house is spectacular and truly better than the write up and pictures portrayed. The bedrooms are well appointed, the kitchen, dining and living area is thoughtfully laid out to take advantage of the outdoor living, pool and private beach. Oscar, the property manager, is attentive and immediately responsive and Nelson, the housekeeper, is so joyful and kept things sparkling clean. And there are no words for Chefs Arturo, Mariana and Veronica, the onsite personal chef Karla arranged. The food and presentation was delicious and they are some of the most gracious humans we have ever met. And then there’s Karla, our host! As host, concierge and first and last line of interaction, she set the tone and expectation for five star luxury during for our stay and she exceeded our expectations! Many thanks to you, Karla, for your graciousness, efficiency and professionalism. You made our vacation seamless and we are your clients forever!

Wonderful place for us and our friends. We loved the house. Just perfect!

Excellent, only the pool was cold that does not have a heater

Excelente solo estaba fría la alberca po que no tiene calentador

I have stayed in several beachfront homes in this community and by absolute far, this home is the absolute best. The attention to detail inside is impeccable. All of the furnishings, including the beds, are extremely comfortable and attractive. the level of detail down to a room by room Sonos music system, custom branded towels & boutique soaps/shampoos, motorized window shades everywhere, Samsung frame TV… it truly is an opportunity to stay inside someone’s own personal home that truly knows how to live comfortably and exquisitely… all hosts should stay here and learn from Karla! The location can’t be beat, the pool and patio are perfection, the kitchen is stocked with more than you will need, and if you can swing it, opt to hire Karla’s chef — you will NOT be disappointed. 11 out of 10 experience. Can’t wait to return already! Chefs kiss!

Karla’s place was absolutely, beautiful. I reserved this place for my family of 7 adults to get away and have a peaceful week. Karla’s place has all the amenities we needed! The beds we’re comfortable individual restrooms were amazing and the view was spectacular. The fridge was stocked with the essentials, and some fruit upon our arrival. There was also a volleyball, football, beach chairs and boogie boards which made our trips to the beach (walking distance) that much more enjoyable. Karla & the concierge Oscar’s communication was spectacular and proactive. From groceries, cleaning or arranging transportation to the airport. Would definitely recommend staying here if you’re in the Playa Del Carmen area!

I can’t say enough good things about Karla or her place. The house is even better than the pics. Everything is perfect from the remote controlled blackout shades, spa like bathrooms to the modern kitchen that has everything needed to cook and iPad controlled music control. There are so many places that are walkable. It is very close to 5th Avenue that has tons of shopping and restaurants. Our dates that we planned to be there were changed due to changes in our kids schedule and Karla accommodated us and was so kind. She messaged me back every time we needed something. Also Oscar the manager of the rental was wonderful and so sweet. We will definitely be back!

Our stay at this beautiful house was amazing from the breathtaking ocean view, to the upscale linens and comfortable beds, to the well appointed kitchen, and modern features of this home.  It was wonderful to have a private bathroom with each bedroom. From day one, our host  Karla responded immediately. We asked if there were more that 2 lounge chairs, other than the many cushioned seating options on the patio, and she immediately went out and bought 2 more chairs and took a photo for us. We asked about a chef to bring in one night for a celebration and she immediately responded with the awesome Chef Arturo who made us an incredible authentic meal.  She set up and paid for all of transports so we didn’t worry about a thing. When leaving, we felt like we had a new friend. The concierge, Oscar, greeted us at the door with a welcoming smile and took us through the home and showed us with great detail how to use everything including an iPad with instructions. We will definitely come back!

Very well appointed in really every way.  Beautiful location.  The kitchen is very well stocked and all of the furnishings from technology to linens to kitchen knives is top shelf.  Karla is very easy to work with and accommodating.  We’ve been very happy with the house and everything associated with it.

Excellent stay, Karla and Oscar were always available to answer any questions. House was awesome and easily handled seven guests. Karla was so helpful on suggestions on things too do and places too go, Highly recommend!! Will definitely return!!

We loved the house, the pool and being on the beach! Wonderful spot for our family vacation!

This place was very nice and right on water

Everything you need and more for an amazing getaway. Spacious and thoughtfully designed with every imaginable creature comfort (Sonos speaker system, individually climate controlled rooms, Jura automatic coffee machine, luxury beds, linens, and bathrobes, concierge grocery shopping, airport pick up/drop off, etc.), the home is safe, secure, and private with a panoramic ocean view on the best part of the beach in Playa del Carmen. We swam multiple times a day and enjoyed taking out the paddle boards to explore more of the area. We also took advantage of the fully stocked kitchen to cook meals and dine al fresco on the patio. Karla and her team were so welcoming and communicative. Such a special place and experience- we didn’t want to leave!

Gorgeous house right on the beach. Karla was super friendly and helpful!  The house was equipped with everything I needed. I would definitely stay again!

This place is exactly how it looks . There is no other place you could be closer to the ocean. Really amazing place you will not be disappointed we will be back soon.

Our family had a wonderful time at Casa Karma, it exceeded our expectations and provided a comfortable, clean and safe space. All the finishings, amenities and utilities were excellent... From the Toto Toilet with bidet, to the incredibly comfortable beds with soft sheets, the perfect kitchen fully equipped with all you could ever need including a SHUN knife block set and the fully loaded cupboards with all the towels and supplies (including a first aid kit that had some much needed ibuprofen) I could go on and on.... The beach is right at your doorstep and the pool was a sanctuary for our family. Could not fault this place and will not hesitate to recommend it to friends and family.

Magical stay! The pictures, although great, don’t do this place justice. We barely left the house during our 7 day stay because everything we could’ve asked for was right there. The house is inside a gated community and has just the perfect location. There are many restaurants nearby to order from (even a Starbucks) and there's a huge shopping center within walking distance. The service was also amazing! Rides from and to the airport were included in the price. As for all other accommodations, the host was very helpful and communication was instantaneous. This is really the all-inclusive AirBnB experience you're looking for.

We absolutely loved this place! Karla was an incredibly responsive host as was the property manager. “Casa Karma” was amazing! We will definitely attempt to return to this slice of heaven on earth. The best part of this place is that it’s right on the ocean! When we arrived, all the groceries had been put in place so we didn’t waste a minute getting to our holiday. Each day and night we could hear the lovely waves hitting the sand. It was fun to sit by the pool, have a cocktail, and people watch from above beautiful pool. We had planned to see a lot of the local attractions but honestly fell in love with the place so much we barely ventured out. We realized when we did it was a very short walk to the famous Playa Del Carmen “5th avenue”. If you haven’t been, it’s a real treat seeing every imaginable bar, restaurant, and tourist mementos for every person on your shopping list. Now, back to the features of Casa Karma.. There were 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. Now that’s privacy. Each one is newly remodeled and are absolutely sparkling clean. Every room is environmentally controlled by an individual air conditioner. Each room has a set of wonderful set of blinds to set for “sun in” or “black out”. You can see and hear the ocean from the master bed room. The master bath room was enormous and had an overhead rain shower which was seemed like a private spa. The kitchen was very new and updated with just about every gadget you could imagine. The wine cooler was a very nice feature. Espresso bar was a treat. The bar had plenty of margarita and wine glasses. I could go on and on about this lovely place. I know that you will not be disappointed with this amazing place.
