Glenn went above and beyond to make us feel like family! Always kind, always helpful, always informative. He provided exceptional insight on the location, surrounding locations and offered extra services that took all of the stress and unknown out of our stay. He made our stay a vacation we will never forget! Top tier host! Special thanks to his house/grounds keeper Maria and co-pilot Miles. Can’t wait to go back!

We had a really great stay at Casa Marina. The house is just as advertised—spacious, comfortable, and full of character. There was plenty of room for our family, and we especially enjoyed spending time by the pool and in the outdoor spaces. Glenn was a great host. He was easy to communicate with, quick to respond, and had lots of good recommendations. He genuinely wanted to make sure we had a good trip, and it showed. Maria was wonderful too. Coming back to a clean house each day and having laundry taken care of was such a nice touch and made the vacation even more relaxing. The location was also perfect for us—close to everything we wanted to do, but tucked away enough to feel quiet and private. We’d definitely stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone visiting Playa del Carmen.

Truly a once in a lifetime experience staying at this house. It is very rare that you will find houses with so much attention to detail and such impressive architecture. Everything from the door ways to the tile is extremely impressive, on top of that Glenn is absolutely amazing. Made sure to personally great us at check in time and made sure we knew our way around the house and the surrounding area. He is a true local when it comes to his experience and knowledge of the area. I can say for sure that me and my family has an amazing time and look forward to booking with Glenn again. My only advice would be to try to rent a small car or scooter to easily navigate to and from town. The house is located about a 15 minute walk from the main strip (5th ave) it is perfect in the sense that you have a lot of privacy and are away from all of the noise but on a hot day it can be a little bit of a walk going back and forth.

Glenn went above and beyond as a host. He was extremely communicative and offered many additional amenities. He and his driver, Miles, provided transportation to and from the airport for us as well as to/from additional excursions we planned during the week. This was a huge help for us as we didn't need to rely on taxi's for our party of six. He recommended some lovely restaurants and activities in the area that were spot-on. Maria provided daily cleaning services as well as laundry for us. She is a wonderfully warm and kind person and we really appreciated all she did to make sure we were comfortable. There was nothing Glenn didn't do to try and make our stay as amazing as possible. He treated us like family!
