Luxury Playacar Villa - walk to beach & 5th Ave - Houses for Rent in Playa del Carmen, Q.R., Mexico

Excellent place, highly recommended. The host is 10/10! We felt at home.

Excelente lugar muy recomendable, la anfitriona 10/10!. Nos sentimos como en casa.

We loved the house. The neighbor is quiet and lovely. You're 2 mins from the beach! The pool is great and the beachclub is a hidden gem. We will certainly be back!

Our family loved this rental. We were constantly entertained by the local visiting creatures including monkeys, turtles and many other rare animals. It was very nice to have a washer and dryer, A/C, a smart TV and many private rooms. No regrets renting this location.

Patricia had great local recommendations that we really appreciated. The house was clean, and the entry was easy. The WiFi doesn’t quite work as expected, with several networks that don’t seem to be synced up as you’d expect. The pool is great, but is on a timer that you’ll need to adjust. DO NOT turn on the waterfall. The smell will make sure you stay away from the pool for the remainder of the day. Still, a super nice experience in a great location.

Would rent again. The home is beautiful, and having our own pool was fantastic. The walk to the beach was just two blocks away going through a keyed gate (at the back of the house), or you could go out the front door and across the street was a path through a wooded area and get beach access that way. That way was also the way we took to walk to town of Playa which took about 20 minutes. For the bedrooms, just be aware that the two small bedrooms are located inside two larger bedrooms so if you are comfortable having someone going through your bedroom to access them, you'll be fine. (We were family so it was fine. The master bedroom above the kitchen is very large, but be aware that the bathroom is behind a partial wall with no door. We had a small family in that room and they were ok with limited privacy. It may have stated that in the description and we missed it.  The kids loved the pool, bikes, and pingpong table  Oh, and highly recommend hiring Ruth the housekeeper to make meals!

Great place and location and helpful host. There are only 4 separate bedrooms though.

Muy buena ubicación y muy bien la atención

Certainly an excellent choice for an unforgettable vacation with family or friends. The place was super nice, clean, comfortable, and quiet. The layout of each space is excellent. Just the perfect place for several families together. The kitchen is impeccable. It has everything you need to avoid hassles and make your stay easier. 100 out of 100!!!

Sin duda una excelente opción para pasar unas vacaciones inolvidables con la familia o amigos. El lugar estaba súper bonito, limpio, cómodo, tranquilo. La distribución de cada espacio excelente. Justo el lugar ideal para varias familias juntas. La cocina impecable. Cuenta con todo lo necesario para no batallarle y facilitar la estancia. 100 de 100!!!

Our family of seven spent a week at Patricia’s Villa the first week of April 2026 and had an amazing time. My grandchildren ages 9, 6 &4 enjoyed the pools and all the amenities but most of all they loved the beach and the fact that we could just walk there from the house was a big plus. The house was stocked with everything you could need.  Can’t wait to go back again.

Patricia’s house was lovely and spacious. Ruth, the housekeeper, was very sweet and incredibly helpful, she grocery shopped and made us a few meals during our stay. Highly recommend!

Fantastic stay.  Great host, great home.  Exactly as described.

We stayed 2 weeks in the villa and loved it. The villa has all the amenities required for cooking. It is located in Playacar, a secure complex. The villa has 4 adult bedrooms with large comfortable beds. The two largest also have a bed in an annex that is ideal for young children. The large, fully covered outdoor terrace allows for outdoor dining. The pool is not the largest but is very suitable for young children. The beach is just a 5-minute walk away. You can get to town in 15-20 minutes on foot or 5-10 minutes with one of the 4 bikes provided. The villa provides us with beach chairs and towels, ping-pong rackets, pickleball and tennis. Ruth and her husband come 3 times a week to maintain the grounds and pool. Ruth prepared us an excellent meal a few times during our stay.

Nous avons séjourné 2 semaines dans la villa et l’avons beaucoup aimé. La villa possède tous les équipements requis pour cuisiner. Elle est située à Playacar, un complexe sécurisé. La villa possède 4 chambres pour adultes avec de grands lits confortables. Les deux plus grandes ont également un lit dans une annexe qui sont idéales pour de jeunes enfants. La grande terrasse extérieure entièrement couverte permet de prendre les repas à l’extérieur. La piscine n’est pas la plus grande mais convient très bien aux jeunes enfants. La plage est à seulement 5 minutes de marche. On peut aller en ville en 15-20 minutes de marche ou 5-10 minutes avec un des 4 vélos fournis. La villa met à notre disposition des chaises et serviettes de plage, des raquettes de ping-pong, pickleball et tennis. Ruth et son mari viennent 3 fois par semaine pour entretenir le terrain et la piscine. Ruth nous à préparé un excellent repas à quelques reprises durant notre séjour.

Fantastic home in the best part of Playacar. Wonderfully-responsive and witty host. Highly recommend!

Patricia was very responsive from questions when we first booked to quick replies when we arrived and had a few questions.  Provided great local recommendations on some good and activities.  House was very clean. Overall amazing experience!

.The house is gorgeous: huge and bright, but also tastefully decorated, with its own pool, roof decks, and cenote (!). Our group of 7 adults was extremely comfortable, with the AC units working perfectly when needed. The nearby beach (a 5 minute walk) is quiet and beautiful, and the water is perfect. Patricia could not have been a better host. Her instructions and recommendations are spot-on, and she was always quick to respond with a thorough answer to ANY questions. Playa is the place to be (no regrets about not staying in Tulum or Cancun), and we always felt 100% safe in the community (walking around downtown after dark was lots of fun and not the least bit intimidating). Housekeeper Ruth cooked our final dinner there, and it did not disappoint. HIGHLY recommended. At least a couple of our adult children want to come back and stay at the same house! If you like seeing wildlife up close, we were frequently visited by monkeys (in the trees), agoutis, and a large family of coatis!

The house is beautiful and perfectly located a two minutes walk to the beach. It was roomy , clean private with the best local helping lady Ruth who was always available to help clean,cook do grocery shopping for a very fare fee. We had an issue with AC in one of the bedrooms that was resolved in a matter of couple of hours with utmost courtesy and best attitude. The one time cleaning that is part of the rental agreement is a perfect bonus and comes at a perfect time. Patricia was always responsive within a short few minutes to answer and make recommendation . The neighborhood feels very safe with multiple check points and we had no worries at all. I strongly recommend it to large family groups and friends.

We had a great time with our group of 9.  The house is huge and well-kept.  Plenty of beds and room to socialize - outside and in.  A short two-block walk to the beach and approximately 1 mile, safe walk to Playa del Carmen.  Patricia is a great host - answered questions quickly and provided suggestions for activities (what to do and what not to do).  Highly recommended.

We loved staying here. Patricia was very kind and responded right away and was helpful. The house location is unbeatable. Walk to the beach, town, and very safe. Our group had a great time.

such a cool and large place! perfect for big families or multiple families 100//100 5 star!!!

Just returned from a one week stay in Patricia’s home. Her place was absolutely beautiful ! The pictures don’t do it justice.

Patricia is a wonderful host who offered many great recommendations. Playacar is a very safe and convenient place to stay and the home is lovely. To note, two of the bedrooms are extensions of main rooms. Perfect for families with kids, but not ideal for all adult couples who need privacy.

Patricia's house is very nice and large. The kitchen and the entire house are super equipped - there is really nothing missing! We felt very comfortable as a large family. Normally, the houses on the Riviera Maya have a very small garden or none at all - but Patricia's house has a wonderful, large garden! The children loved the pool, my daughter and I loved the sun terrace. The bicycles with which you can quickly ride into the city are nice. There is also the possibility to play tennis. Patricia gives valuable tips for the area and is also very helpful. The only drawback: the exaggerated safety regulations of the residential area.

Patricias Haus ist sehr schön und groß. Die Küche und das gesamte Haus sind super ausgestattet - es fehlt wirklich an Nichts! Wir als Großfamilie haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Normalerweise haben die Häuser an der Riviera Maya einen sehr kleinen bis gar keinen Garten - Patricias Haus jedoch hat einen wunderbaren, großen Garten! Die Kinder fanden den Pool super, meine Tochter und ich die Sonnenterrasse. Schön sind die Fahrräder mit denen man schnell in die Stadt fahren kann. Es gibt auch die Möglichkeit Tennis zu spielen. Patricia gibt wertvolle Tipps für die Umgebung und ist auch ansonsten sehr hilfsbereit. Einziges Manko: Die übertriebenen Sicherheitsbestimmungen vom Wohngebiet.

My family and I love the place! I highly recommend it.

Excellent house and good host, Patricia and Ruth are always very kind in helping us with our inquiries

Excelente casa y buena anfitriona, Patricia y Ruth siempre muy amables en ayudarnos con nuestras consultas

Wow, BOOK it now! We loved our Spring Break retreat here. The sprawling house is amazing. It was perfect for our 2 families (9 ppl - 4 adults, 5 teen or preteens). We had enough room to spread out but all connect in the amazing spots throughout the property. The house setup gives lots of flexibility to accommodate variety of guests. The porch is awesome. The pool and waterfall are relaxing. The cenote is truly uniques. The support team (Ruth - housekeeper and Rafael - handyman, grounds) are a superb extra perk. We coordinated for a bfast and dinner by Ruth and perfecto. They treat the property and guests with real caring. The location is convenient for all types of activities. We couldn't have asked for more and highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time at Patricia's place! great location right by the beach. Beautiful setting and beautiful property.

Our group had a blast staying here, just a few steps down out the back gate to the beach was great, very quiet section of shoreline compared to some other areas. Amazing kitchen for cooking and we really enjoyed using the outdoor charcoal grill for cooking local meats and the multiple dining areas. We spent a lot of the time in the pool and it truly felt like a private paradise. Great spot for 4 couples with 4 separate King bedroom areas and very comfortable mattress setup. 2 of the additional bedrooms are attached directly to 2 of the main bedrooms so factor that in if you are needing that extra privacy but worked great for our group. The host provided some amazing recommendations for local spots to check out as well. We also utilized the housekeeper Ruth to cook us a big meal and the was one of the highlights of our stay here. very spacious, comfortable and we all felt safe in this area of town. lived having the bikes as well for exploring. We look forward to another stay here again!

Great stay, host gave lots of local recommendations. Perfect for our group of 3 couples and children. Ruth and Raphael took great care of the place and Ruth even cooked for us on the first night of arrival.

Patricia’s house is great. We spent 8 nights at this property. We have 2 toddlers and 1 baby. We spent a lot of time at swimming pools, kids loved it! The kids also enjoyed exploring the courtyard and the rooftops. The beautiful beach is just 5 minutes away. Patricia is great to communicate with and gave a lot detailed information and suggestions for the restaurants and attractions. Ruth and Rafa are very sweet. They kept the house,the ground,and the pools clean. We would definitely love to stay here again. One of the toilets water tank malfunctioned. Patricia contacted house manager for the issue. It did take more than we expected. I understand Ruth and Rafa probably had other properties they need to take care of. But when they came, they got it fixed quickly.

Patricia's house was amazing, we had a great time. It was a quick walk to the beach, into Playa Del Carmen etc. We throughly enjoyed our stay. Patricia's house is ideal for multiple families since the 2 large wings upstairs could be split easily between 2 families, with another family downstairs. Patricia was a great host. We didn't have concerns, but there was a couple questions, that she answered really quick. Her housekeeper and groundskeeper were also super sweet. I would highly recommend Patricia's house.

It was a beautiful spacious home with a great common space for large groups of people. Patrica responded super quickly when we had questions. Ruth and Raphael were super sweet and friendly, ready to help when we needed anything. Ruth cooked some amazing chilaquiles and accommodated us with the help of getting groceries. Overall an amazing experience! The beach was just a few minutes away. It is worth mentioning that the single beds within the main rooms got pretty hot, but there were fans in each area to help. The house was also very clean and well maintained.

Hi Antonio.  Thanks for your review.  I’m so glad you all had a wonderful time.  I appreciate the feedback about the temperature in the twin bed areas.  In response to that I’m going to have my house manager arrange to install mini ac units in those areas so future guests are more comfortable.  Hope to host you again someday.

Patricia and her team are amazing. It’s a beautiful place in a great area, at a reasonable price. We had an incredible time, there’s a lot stuff to do near by. I definitely recommend this place.

We had a great time here at the house . We enjoyed our stay.  Patricia was always helpful when we needed help.

Excellent place to stay in playacar… checkimg in was easy and host instruction and recommendation were excellent.. place can accomodate a everyone, very well worth it, pictures dont make justice for how nice the place is… it is a short couple hundred feet feom beach!! Place make you feel at home.. lots of privacy and plane of room to accomodate big families!! The bikes were an excellent extra accomodation… place was very clean and furniture and everything was of good quiality and in exellent condition…. U wont be dissapointed  booking this one..

We had a great stay at Patricia’s place. She was very helpful with recommendations and even shared some info on how to arrange someone to cook for us. Lots of space for 9 people and loved the neighborhood. We walked to 5th avenue as well as the beach and felt safe the entire trip. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Nice house. 2 minutes walk to the beach. The rooms are big, nice beds and Ruth helps you with everything that you need. Recommended if you want to stay close to the beach and close to the town in Playa del Carmen

beautiful  home every thing you need to cook. beach was close ans the kids had a great time at the pool will definitely come back

This is a great rental for family or friends. Its private and large enough to accommodate everyone. Fantastic beach access and easy to get taxis to and from. The house has all the amenities, from games, to linens. The kitchen is well stocked. Patricia is great at communicating and solving issues. The staff are very helpful and keep this house in great condition. We also found the bikes a great added feature. Highly recommend this as your house in Playa del Carmen.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house comfortably accommodated our family group of 11. The layout of the bedrooms allowed privacy for each family unit. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the tools we needed to prepare meals and was roomy enough to allow for several people to work at the same time. We really appreciated having a nice supply of drinking water available. The property caretakers, Ruth and Rafael, were incredibly responsive to my messages with questions. I arranged for Ruth to prepare a meal the night of our arrival and also to purchase some basic supplies for the first morning's breakfast. The meal was delicious and she even served and cleaned up afterward. The lovely outdoor area and patio became our major daily hangout when we weren't at the beach. Most importantly we felt very safe the entire time. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us and leaving us with some fabulous family memories.

Access to the beach was about 300 yards, beautiful beach. The host had wonderful recommendations which we followed and appreciated. The laundry was great. Kitchen well equipped. Drinking water provided which we appreciated very much. Beds were very comfortable. The main bedrooms large and luxurious. The only thing is one of the bedrooms off the bathroom in one of the main bedrooms had no windows and was very small and hot with no door.  If you have no need for that bed which we didn’t for most of our stay, then the house is really perfect for everything else. 15 min walk to the centre of town. 3 min walk to beach. Tons of great restaurants in town. Beautiful walking paths all around. Great little mall with a gym within Playacar a 10 min walk. We used the bikes. We really appreciated the responsiveness of the host and the couple who came and cleaned the yard and pool and house every few days. Honestly all my friends and family loved the home and location. We felt well taken care of.

The host was very polite and responsive, however she did show up at the house with only an hour notice. This is a standalone house, so I would normally expect a bigger heads up to a visit from the host.

We loved our stay at Patricia's place! The grounds were so beautiful that we spent a lot of time in the pool there, as well as an awesome beach spot within a couple minutes' walk. So much wildlife to observe! Patricia had everything we needed for a comfortable stay - a well equipped kitchen, bikes to explore the local area, beach toys and ping pong table for the kids. She also provided some awesome recommendations for places to dine, day trips etc. We would absolutely stay again and were sad to leave!

Patricia’s place in Playacar was perfect! Location wise it’s an easy walk to downtown/5th Ave, we also walked the beach to the ferry to Cozumel and it was great. The path to the beach was so convenient, easy to hang out then walk back up to the house for snacks etc. There is a locked gate to get to and from so it felt safe and secure. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet and safe. The house was wonderful, we had a group of 10 adults and there was plenty of beds and bathrooms. Huge kitchen which made it great to have big home cooked meals and the kitchen was well stocked. Patricia provides water jugs for drinking which was convenient. Plenty of towels, bedding, seating for our group. Each room and living room had air conditioners and plenty of ceiling fans inside and out of the patio. Honestly I can’t think of any inconvenience with our stay!

We really enjoyed our stay here and had such a wonderful vacation. There were a couple of small things that come up upon our arrival and Patricia was very responsive and sent someone out right away to help. The house is close to the beach, walkable to town and located close enough to the attractions further south that everything felt manageable. 2 of the bedrooms are somewhat separate from the main house with their own entrance. Not an issue when traveling with teenagers but if you have smaller children, the “main” house is really only 2 1/2 bedrooms.

Great location in Super safe and quiet Playacar. Nearby the beach location is perfect location. The bikes were used to do small commissions as well. We were 2 families, for a total of 9 people which, in my opinion, is the ideal maximum number with the configuration of the rooms to have a minimum of privacy. Patricia responded to all our requests very quickly.

Excellent emplacement dans Playacar ultra sécuritaire et calme. À proximité de la plage, l'emplacement est parfait. Les vélos ont bien servi pour aller faire des petites commissions également. Nous étions 2 familles, pour un total de 9 personnes qui est selon moi la nombre maximum idéal avec la configuration des chambres pour avoir un minimum d'intimité. Patricia à répondu à tout nos demandes très rapidement.

Great house with lots of space to spread out. Everything worked perfectly and it was very well stocked. Host was very responsive and local recommendations were icing.

Thanks for the great review and for the feedback on the towel hangers.  Great idea and I’ll do that this week. Happiest 2024!!

Our extended family group of 11 had a wonderful six days at Patricia’s lovely, spacious home in Playacar! It sits at the end of a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac. The home was sparkling clean, the kitchen well-equipped, the beds very comfortable, and all areas well air-conditioned. (Note that the two small bedrooms are actually attached to the two largest bedrooms. This family suite set-up worked well for those of us with children but might not be appreciated by an all-adult group.) The beach is an easy walk away, uncrowded, with a soft sand bottom for wading. The tennis court is even closer, set down in a kind of shaded glen. We loved the front-yard private pool, uniquely located as pictured. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the covered veranda—great for card games, ping pong, and watching visiting coatis after dark. Patricia is a welcoming, responsive host. She replied promptly to answer questions and problem-solve. Her restaurant recommendations are spot-on! Kudos!

What a beautiful place!! My family and I stayed here a week and loved every bit of it! The A/C worked wonderfully and the pool was perfect! Would definitely stay here again!

I want to thank Patricia because she saved us. We were looking at night for a place (emergency), she answered me in the night and was so helpful with everything. Special thanks to Ruth and Rafa, they were very helpful during our stay with everything that we needed, Ruth and Rafa are very kind. This house is very clean, maintained and equipped. The house have everything that you need and more. We loved the location, the cleanliness, the service, everything. We would come back without any doubt. Amazing host, amazing people helping us and amazing house. Thank you so much! 🙏🏻

Patricia’s home exceeded our expectations. The jungle setting and property is so beautiful. The neighborhood felt very safe and I love how close it is to the beach. Patricia responded right away when the occasional question came up. She prepared a list of helpful recommendations and has so many extras like bikes and beach toys for a toddler. The only issue we had, which wasn’t really an issue, is the GPS will direct you to the entrance of Playacar Phase 1. You actually have to go in through the entrance that’s by the City Club off of the main highway. If you put Playacar Burger in your GPS, that will direct you to the right entrance. Then plug in the actual house address. Hope this is helpful.

Patricia's home was beautiful.  It was clean.  It was peaceful.  It was also the most well stocked airbnb we have ever stayed in.  They even had a cooler and umbrellas we could take to the beach as well as water shoes and snorkeling equipment.  The house was fantastically cleaned.  Our only issue was that there are really only 4 bedrooms and not 6.  2 of what they are considering bedrooms are inside the other two bedrooms with zero privacy.   And the 4th true bedroom was behind a folding door off the living room with no way to lock or secure it.  We would not have booked this home if that was clear on the listing.  We really were looking for a house with 6 bedrooms.  We would not stay here again unless we only needed 4 bedrooms - in which case i would highly recommend.

Amazing place and incredible host. Love the place and will return Thank you for having me and my family. Thanks again JFK

We loved our week long stay so much! This was the perfect house for our family gathering. The pool was the favorite hang out place for the kids and the adults loved the big bedrooms. The kitchen was well equipped, the location had a lot of great things to do,and the beach was in easy walking distance. Patricia was so fast to respond and all our questions were answered. This house absolutely made our family vacation! We feel so lucky to have found it!

Beautiful home and large enough to accommodate us. It was a little hard to find based on directions given. It’s 27 Retorno Palenque. If you put 27 Palenque, you end up in a very undesirable neighborhood with an unusual amount of cats, so skip that side journey. Patricia was very responsive to my questions. The fans were hard to figure out initially and it was so hot when we got to the house, but that’s usual for July. The Sargassum seaweed made the beaches and water look and smell disgusting, but that has nothing to do with the beautiful home- just a note to travelers during this summer. Overall the home is a great value for that location.  The kitchen was great for all of our cooking needs and the living room was fantastic for all our teens to hang out together in. Air conditioners work very well and the hot water in the showers is great.

Very good location and Ruth ( the housekeeper ) was amazing!

Can’t describe how nice our stay was.  From Patricia’s excellent communications, everyone’s friendly demeanor including cleaning staff, and the beauty/convenience/location/comfort of the estate, we will definitely be return guests!

5 star place in every sense Would totally come back

One of my favorite Airbnbs! This place is beautiful. From the pool and private cenote, to the big living area space and gorgeous spacious bedrooms, we didn’t want to leave. The house is located in a very private and secure residential area which we loved. There are bikes we used to ride to town (10 Avenida is right outside the community gates). The beach is indeed about a block away. Host gave suggestions and was always readily available. You get more than what you pay for…truly a dream and would be back!

Had a great time with our whole family staying there. Walkable to the beach and to downtown.

Patricia was so helpful and responsive and her recommendations were spot on. This is our second visit here - the first time was with all family. This time we took my husband’s small company with us but also three small kids. There was something for everyone. Bikes were so great for the younger guys to take into town. Pools and grounds perfect for kids. Plenty of space for everyone and really comfy bedding. The community pool was the perfect height for my 5 yr old to finally learn to swim in! Ruth, the housekeeper, absolutely made the trip. She helped arrange meals at the house (cooking several of them herself) and did a fabulous job with cleaning and general attention to maintenance. We were sad to say goodbye to her. She was such a special part of our stay and it felt like a real vacation because of her presence. We will definitely be back.

The house was great ruth and her husband great Patricia great response ...close to beach and 5th Ave it was great would love to come back here

So many great things to say about Patricia's place.  We were a group of 10 with adults, teens, & young kids and everyone LOVED the house.  The layout of the home was super accommodating for multiple families traveling together.  We had the common areas to spend time together but also had our own areas to retreat back to. The house is in such a great location.  There is a path right behind the property that leads you to the beach which is a short walk away. We used the provided bikes to go shopping near the plaza, grab something to eat & make quick trips to nearby convenience stores.  Most things we did were walkable from the house including visiting 5th Ave. For day trips to other areas, it was super easy to catch a taxi from the neighborhood.  The area was very safe and secure with the gated entry. Patricia was super responsive & available to answer any questions. We all enjoyed our time at her beautiful home & hope to be back soon!  We wouldn’t stay anywhere else! Gracias por todo!!!

My family had an amazing stay at Patricia’s place. She was so helpful with suggestions and information about the area and this made our time there so much more enjoyable! Her response time was always so quick. The house is beautiful and we totally enjoyed the pool and outside areas. House was immaculate and nicely decorated. It is also in a convenient location - walkable to the beach and restaurants and shopping. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else!

Patricia was a great host. Easy to communicate with great instructions. House was immaculate in a great location. Lots of things to do only a short walk away.  Defintely would go back again.

Loved our stay. The house was beautiful, spacious and clean and perfectly suited our group of 11, including our 6 month old newest granddaughter. Patricia always responded very quickly from the point of reservation throughout the rental period. Knowing that our infant granddaughter would be staying, she even arranged to have the pack and play bed set up in the room we designated ahead of our arrival.  Ruth the housekeeper was present when we arrived and showed us where everything was and answered any questions we had. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely visit again!

Our family with 6 adults and 3 kids had plenty of room to have our own space and gathering room for meals, drinks and games. We all loved the house and highly recommend! Words of advice, check in and then go grocery shopping. Previous guests have left spices and other amenities not listed. The guests before us left lots of beer. We would definitely consider staying here again!

Unbelievably responsive!!! Amazing location, great place!!

Patricia’s place was perfect for our family gathering in Playa. Exactly as described with all of the amenities! Checkin and checkout were extremely easy. Location was absolutely perfect. Short walk to beach and short walk to 5th ave. Our car stayed parked for most days!

Patricia was very responsive and her place was great for our 10-person group & in a very private area of Playacar (need wristbands to get in/out of the area). The living room was terrific with a large comfortable couch and nice TV. The separate bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and private and had incredibly comfortable bedding. When the construction of the home next door is completed and the kitchen/home is better stocked, it would be a perfect stay. Cons: -Stocking: Kitchen wasn't stocked for 10 people. There were only 4 wine glasses and no shot glasses. No spices, except for a few basic ones (salt, pepper, cayenne pepper). Also no pens/misc. items (lighters, rubberbands, paper pad) or shampoo dispensers. -The waterfall works, but smells so rancid even after hours of running it that we couldn't use it. -The construction of the home next door was incredibly loud 6 of our 7 days. Welding, pounding, etc...hard to enjoy the Airbnb between 8AM-6PM as it was so disruptive.

For our family's needs perfectly. Patricia was pleasant and most helpful. would love to stay again.

Patricia was an outstanding host and was very helpful in everything my family and I needed. The home was spotless and had all the amenities that were listed. Would give this place a solid 10/10 and would stay here again.

everything was perfect, we had all the things we needed

The home is so beautiful and very big!! It is in a great location, about a 10 min walk from the stores. Lots of activities to do at the beach that is nearby the house. Met the people that help maintain the house, Ruth and her husband, very nice and helpful people. Helped us with any questions we had during our stay and recommend lots of activities and places to visit. Overall we enjoyed our stay here and would definitely book again! Patricia is a great host!! :)

Patricia, is a wonderful host. She truly cares about her guests. I love the fact that she’s responsive in a timely manner and has everything available in her home. If you’re staying with a big group or want quick access to the beach this is the home. She has a magnificent pool.

this is a great house in a great location. it is well equipped - the pool is ideal for hanging out and cooling off. Beach, club, community pool, tennis and town all close and walkable. we have young kids so walking to town and back not always ideal for us if we went to the far end of town but it was easy to pick a taxi up on the main street by the house - 1-2 min walk and get one back - 150 pesos for the four of us from anywhere. the house keeper team is very nice and diligent. we have no hesitation in recommending the place and had prompt responses for any questions we had. i always research the houses and the area very closely to avoid disappointment or surprises and for us most expectations were exceeded.

great communication and a very nice house. based on the photos we were a little shy, but the place is nice, neat and very clean! the tiles outside are only a bit dirty, but that's because of the regular rain showers etc. the location is also top. 2 minutes walk to the beach, 5 minutes cycling to the city center, but out of all the hustle and bustle if you like peace and quiet more. Highly recommended

geweldige communicatie en een heel mooi huis. op basis van de foto's waren we een beetje huiverig, maar de plek is mooi, netjes en heel schoon! de tegels buiten zijn alleen een beetje vies, maar dat komt door de regelmatige regenbuien etc. ook de locatie is top. 2 minuten lopen naar het strand, 5 minuten fietsen naar het centrum, maar wel uit alle drukte als je meer van rust houdt. Een absolute aanrader

Patricia's house is very beautiful, large, clean with air conditioning in every room. The towels and bedding are of good quality and the mattresses comfortable. Unfortunately, Patricia failed to notify us that there was a construction site some 10 meters from our house generating incessant noises from 8:00 am to 5:30 pm and preventing us from having a normal conversation outside. Hammer noises, jackhammer, saw and cement mixer. In short, it was a very unpleasant stay.

La maison de Patricia est très belle, grande, propre avec air climatisé dans chaque pièce. La lingerie et la literie sont de belle qualité et les matelas confortables. Malheureusement, Patricia a omis de nous aviser qu’il y avait un chantier de construction à quelques 10 mètres de notre maison générant des bruits incessants de 8:00 hres à 17:30 hres et nous empêchant d’avoir une conversation normale à l’extérieur. Des bruits de marteau, marteau piqueur, scie et mélangeur à ciment. En résumé ce fut un séjour très désagréable.

awesome location close to downtown quick walk to the beach everything you can think of is provided by host from beach chairs to umbrellas, bikes,water activities supplies kitchen is fully stocked. I wish Iwould have spent more time at the house but we did allot of outside excursions but house is perfect for bigger groups so families can spend time together

Just spent more than a week at Patricia's property, and we loved every minute of it (really wish I could have planned to stay longer). The home is spacious and beautiful and the second structure that's attached to the main home offers additional space/privacy for other families. The beach is a short 2-3 minute walk from the house and the Playacar private neighborhood where the home is located has its own convenience stores (Oxxo) and a few restaurants. The pool in the front yard was a lot of fun for the kids and the waterfall going into a cenote was a nice touch. Excaret is a short drive from the home, and grocery stores like Soriana, Mega and Walmart are also minutes away. "La Quinta Avenida," is a festive street with tons of places to eat and bars with live music.....and it's also within walking distance. This home was perfect and even beat my expectations. Hats off to not only Patricia, but to Ruth the housekeeper who made us feel welcomed and kept the place spotless. El Pepe.

Great place to stay. Came with a group of 10. We had an amazing time. The house has everything you would need and it's easy to get to the center of town by walking or taxi. Also loved the wildlife on the property: tropical birds, coatis, and agoutis.

This Home provides authentic feel with beautiful landscaping! It’s multiple levels and provides great privacy for couples with different interest. Everyone from the Host to her team on the ground was nice and extremely helpful!

Amazing location, beautiful house, helpful and friendly staff, super responsive host

A great.  safe, clean and well equipped home in playacar   The pool was  a lifesaver for the kids  and yes they met the turtle   Great place for multi family stay  we thank you

AMAZING property and SUPER clean!  The beach is literally just a block away!  Patricia was very responsive and helpful prior to our stay  as well as during the trip.  Only downside, the property next door is being worked on during the day with an excavator and jack hammers making the "relaxing by the pool" challenging from 8:30-5:30.  Patricia gave us several options for beach clubs nearby so we could escape the fumes/noise.  We had a large group and this property was PERFECT for us - giving us space to retreat to our rooms or gather in the living room or covered patio.  Definitely will return!

There is no better single house arrangement for sharing a vacation with extended families than this one. Essentially three master bedroom setups, two with twin bedrooms attached so it was completely ideal for getting to be with the in laws and cousins  but also retreating to your own space. A/C worked great. Grounds are just fabulous and for us, a family with two-4 yr olds and a toddler, it is about as child-proof and child friendly as you can get. Lot of space outside for them to run. Iguanas to watch that live in the huge Banyan Tree out from. Busy ants to follow. Fencing around most of the pool that not even my tiny toddler can fit through - these are the things that a nervous mom of small kids that are constantly trying to die really appreciates! Relaxing pool area that is perfect temp to be refreshing but also comfortable. Ping pong table in good condition that the adults really enjoyed. Patricia is so responsive, helpful, professional. Tons of sand toys and beachy things to use. Perfect outdoor spaces to dine. Easy trip to town. Thanks for everything!

Beautiful place! Extremely clean, housekeeper and groundskeeper were very nice and professional. Wonderful place for multiple families. We'd definitely stay here again if we had a big group.

This home is amazing and great value. I would definitely stay again in the future. Rented this house in addition to another on the beach and everyone had an amazing time. The backyard is very peaceful and pleasant even when the winds are strong. Bikes were nice to have. Rooms/bathrooms - all beautiful and very clean.

We have just returned from staying at this property and everything was just as we expected.  Property is beautiful and is in a very good location.  A short walk to the beach and an easy walk into town.  One thing that is a must check into is the use of The Reef which is just a little over a block from the house.  We wish we would have checked into this earlier in our stay.   Pool at home is beautiful and was fun to cool off in.  We spent most of our time out on the large front porch area, perfect place for meals and playing games.  During our entire time at this property, we never once turned on the TV.  Loved the visits from the wildlife while we were outside.  House is very well stocked with towels and beach - pool toys.  Patricia was always so helpful when we would ask a question prior to arriving.  Check in - Check out could not have been easier.   None of us wanted to leave to come home as we were so comfy and really enjoying our time here.

What an amazing place! Could spend all day lounging on the property, but the quick beach access makes for a great alternate activity. Patricia made everything super easy too - would highly recommend this place for groups of almost any size.

Beautiful location for a big family and friends! We had our wedding here and had an amazing time. only wish we had stayed longer :)

This is a great place!  We were a group of 13 that stayed here for 10 days and we had plenty of space for everyone.  There is certainly sleeping for that many but keep in mind, depending on if you are more than one family, you may have to be creative with who sleeps where due to the bed size and set up.  Plenty of extra towels for everyone, as well as extra sheets and blankets if needed.  Great kitchen set up for cooking and many pots, pans, dishes, glasses and silverware to allow for cooking at the house if you decide to.  The location is great for day trips to many fun places and the beach is only a short 5 minute walk away.  Patricia was very responsive each time we had any questions.  Would definitely stay again!

Patricia's home is possibly more beautiful than the photos. I brought may family and some friends down for my wife and my honeymoon and holiday. Playa del Carmen was the perfect destination and this location was perfectly convenient. Getting in and out of the community could be interesting at first, but once you are accustomed, the feeling of security is appreciated. You are walking distance from shopping and restaurants and the beach is 2 min away! The vibe at the house makes you almost not want to leave, though!

Great location, walking distance to the beach, the pool is very cool, too. Perfect for families with kids. Short bike ride to Playa del Carmen and 5a Avenida restaurants and shops. Just a heads up- there is no Uber and sometimes it might be challenging to get a cab. Book one in advance if you know you will need one!

A host who thinks of everything , a house that has everything , a place of rest , an exemplary attention, an unforgettable vacation!
