The Space
Enjoy the comfort and convenience of this stunning home located in the exclusive Fase 1 Playacar neighborhood. One of two "Castillos" on the property, this residence is perfect for larger groups up to 25 guests but can also accommodate smaller parties. Booking both Castillos allows for up to 50 guests.
Situated at the entrance of Fase 1, everything you need is within walking distance. The beach is only 150 meters away, and the lively 5th Avenue is just around the corner. From the rooftop, you can enjoy a partial ocean view along with a seating area.
Step outside the ground floor living room to find the shared pool right at your doorstep. An outdoor shower is available to rinse off beach sand before entering the house.
The home spans three levels, each featuring its own kitchen, living area, and three bedrooms. The open-concept design and open-air architecture allow tropical breezes to flow throughout the house. Every bedroom has access to a balcony or terrace, and the second and third floors offer wrap-around balconies connected to the kitchens and living spaces.
This gated community provides excellent security with 24-hour guards stationed just across the street.

About Los Castillos Villas
Built in 1989 and renovated in 2000, the Los Castillos villas offer a unique and comfortable vacation experience in a prime Playa del Carmen location. While they may not feature the latest modern amenities, these villas can accommodate large groups of up to 50 guests.
Despite being an older property, our dedicated team works hard to maintain cleanliness and upkeep. Due to Playa del Carmen’s humidity, sun, and salty air, ongoing maintenance is sometimes necessary. Should any issues arise during your stay, our team, led by Danny, is ready to respond promptly.
If you prefer a newer property, we have other listings available. However, if you appreciate the charm and character of a classic home, Los Castillos villas are an excellent choice.
Booking and Security Deposit
We are connected to Airbnb via API software and are responsible for any damages at the property. A security deposit of $1,750 USD is required and fully refundable, or alternatively, a non-refundable fee of $69 USD can be paid outside of the Airbnb platform. This information will be displayed at checkout on Airbnb, just below your total.

Excellent service, perfect location and amenities were as expected. House and pool were clean. It was a great experience staying there and we were even allowed to leave our luggage before the check in, which was greatly appreciated.

This place was not the worst but it was not the best. There were a lot of things that we felt should have been addressed prior to our arrival . The pool was dirty, the bathrooms were dirty, one of the bedroom sheets had a hole in it, several of the screens on varies floor had holes/tears in them, one of the room's AC units was not working, the light in one of the bathrooms needed to be changed, and none of the 3 safes in the primary bedrooms worked. Additionally we felt like the property needed to be invested into more. The living/dining room furniture is very worn (one couch was actually ripped) and the TVs (which are the only TVs in the property) are very small for them to be in the family areas. Then there's the rooftop. SO much protentional. Lots of space with 3 lounge chairs and a built in seating area and table. However there's no source of shade at all so it's utterly uncomfortable during the day in the sun. All in all the stay wasn't horrible but could have been better.

Daniel and Kimberly were wonderful hosts, and went out of their way to make sure our experience was a good one. They even connected us with on-call staff who did some pre-shopping for our kitchen, which was wonderfully helpful.

Our stay at the Castillos I was great. Kimberly and Daniel were very responsive, informative and communicative. They provided ample information about the stay including recommendations of places to go and great contacts to use for our excursions, transportation and services. Everyone they recommended was great and prices were reasonable. Regarding the Airbnb itself, the location was perfect. Walking distance to 5th Ave and the beach made it extremely convenient. We felt safe in a gated area with security at the entrance. The Airbnb is more like 3 small apartments rather than one large house however, it worked out well for our large family of 17 people. If you are booking for a large party you should consider that there are A LOT of stairs. We placed our elderly family members on the first floor. We also had to share the pool and outside lounge area with the Castillos II next door but luckily, no one stayed there most of our week long trip so that wasn’t much of an issue. Great stay!

Loved staying here with our two families. Plenty of room for everyone, the pool is nice and deep, and everything is nearby. The host recommended a private chef and our meals became the highlight of the trip!

For 15 people, this stay was great. We all enjoyed the pool shared with the other tower. We had problems with the pipes (2 leaks on different floors) but that was fixed the next day when some people came to check. Something I didn't like, and I don't know if it's inevitable, is that the sheets and pillows in the rooms on the first floor were damp. We felt like we were sleeping in water. After we went to another room, we realized that it wasn't because it was the beach, it was something in the house. Everything was fine in general, I just didn't feel at home and the hosts were suddenly slow to respond. Yes, I thought the price was high for what it was, but the location is phenomenal and ideal for walking everywhere. Thank you guys.
