We loved everything about the condo and would definitely stay there again. The location is outstanding, only a block away from the best part of the beach (Mamitas Beach) and two blocks away from 5th Avenue. Everything you need (convenience stores, several good bars and restaurants, a scuba shop) is all right there. The roof top terrace was the best part. Incredible view, great pool, and nice relaxing furniture. We spent a whole day up there. You can see Cozumel. The condo is spotless. Manolo and his assistants (Renzo and Juan) treated us perfectly. Try Hangover Bar on the corner. I highly recommend Fusion for dinner. Enjoy!!

The condo was amazing, the location was great, there was some problem with the lock door and bathroom but Renzo was very quick to fiz our problems.

The communication between Manolo and Renzo was very quick. The responses were almost instantaneous. They have great instructions on how to get to the condo from Cancun. The apartment was perfect. It was one block away from the beach and Mamitas Beach Club and Fifth Avenue. Everything you need is in the apartment. The rooftop terrace with the pool is a great bonus. At night you get a security guard for extra security but it isn't really needed since the area is really safe. I highly recommend this condo.

WOW was the first thing that I said when I saw the place. It was amazing. So well lit, decorated, clean, safe, sleek and classy. I felt like a princess in a modern castle! The roof top pool was amazing and it overlooked the beach, truely magical. It was a step to the beach and a few more to 5th Ave where all the action is. As for Manolo, unfortunately I never got the chance to meet him but he had some people look after me in his absence that were amazing and very available if I had any questions. Highly recommend this place and I would definitely revisit again!!

From the moment we arrived in Playa del Carmen and met with our host Renzo, we felt like family being taken care of! We cannot speak highly enough on his generousity and acts of service - that went above an beyond! Before we even arrived he had stocked the fridge with snacks and drinks of choice, as an added special touch for my boyfriends big bday trip. In addition he arranged rooftop massages by the AMAZING Alma and made dinner reservations at a few great recommended spots in town! Romeo's ...... BEST find by far and the most delicious and enjoyable dining experience while there. The chef was expecting us, called me by name and prepared a special birthday desert, along with complimentary limoncello. AMAZING. Again .... all this - thanks to Renzo. The unit itself was very nice. Contemporary, clean and the rooftop seals the deal (as many write in their reviews). The pool up top is perfect, the lounge beds nice and even a gym and bathroom to use as desired. It was relatively quiet our entire stay and it only added to the romance and ease of use when it came to the top deck. In way of amenities there were a few minor touch ups needed: the shower handle, along with a few drawer handles came loose and just need to be tightened up. In addition the toilet is finicky when it comes to flushing. Also would have loved a few more nice pans in the kitchen - yet appreciated all the appliances and utensils that were there. No deal breakers here and nothing that a once over handyman "touch up" couldn't remedy. As one that travels to Playa on a regular I will definitely consider again for a future stay as it was WONDERFUL .... location, comfort, style and most of all SERVICE! Top notch :-) Thanks much for the hospitality Renzo and Manolo! Angela & Cole

This place was clean, beautiful, cozy, and perfectly situated by the beach. The view is outstanding!

What a lovely condo! Beautiful and clean with a lovely rooftop pool, walking distance from the beach. What else could you ask for? Playa Del Carmen is a party town so bring earplugs for sleeping.

This place is fantastic - my wife and I really enjoyed the location and the hospitality of Manolo's team. The condo is very clean, perfect size for two people and a good layout. The pool on the roof is as advertised and a nice beach club is a block away. Zero complaints - I would come back and highly recommend to all.

Our stay in Villa del Mar Azul was perfect. Stefano is a very helpful and kind person who made everything that we had a wonderful stay in Playa. His Villa is a really beautiful place, quiet and ideally situated, near to the beach and not too close to a noisy 5Av. The perfect place to appreciate a charm of Playa del Carmen.

It was pleasure to stay at Villas del Mar Azul. Stefano and his wife, Paula, are wonderful people and hosts. Paula met us when we arrived and showed around the house. We felt very welcomed. Our place was very clean, quiet, cozy and comfy. They advised us what places we should see and even organized a swim with Dolphins on the same day as we wanted. Also, they gave us good tips where we should eat and those places were great. We were sad that we couldn't book one more day at their place because Villas del Mar Azul was fully booked. But Stefano was very helpful in advised us of other places to stay. I wish all Airbnb places would be like Villas del Mar Azul. Thanks a lot for a relaxing time!

Place was really nice and comfy. Everything was exactly like on pictures. It was like Fata Morgana in the middle of Playa del Carmen. Stefano was very nice and VERY HELPFUL. He helped us even when we got into problems with local police while driving a rented car. If I decide to visit Playa del Carmen again, I'lldefinitely stay with Stefano again.

Yet to stay due to changed booking

We only stayed one night. The place was just as described and displayed in the pictures. The room was perfectly clean and very nice. Stefano and his wife were very friendly and helpful. It's about a 10min bike ride to the city center (you can rent bikes from stefano). The beach is really close by and we went for a morning swim after breakfast.

Villas del mar is a wonderful place that Stefano has put together for a very nice relax and holiday. It is a very pretty construction with very well equipped apartments. We really liked our time here. It was clean, pretty, comfortable and 5 minutes from the touristic area of playa del Carmen. We would totally recommend it for a nice private holiday. Thanks Stefano!

We had a most excellent stay at Villas del Mar Azul. We had selected this listing based on the photos and comments from previous guests, and everything held true. While "a city never sleeps," it was actually quite quiet inside the apartment and we slept extremely well. The kitchen contained essential cookware and we loved having coffee each morning on the roof or in the terrace before venturing out for the day. The neighborhood felt very safe, and everyone we passed gave a warm smile. I personally loved being outside of the chaos of downtown, but in an authentic neighborhood. We felt like we got a greater taste for the true culture of Playa this way. Stefano and Paola were always quick to respond to our questions, and I felt they would have done anything for us. We got great recommendations from them and each day of our week-long stay was filled with a new and interesting experience. The price simply can't be beat... excellent value for the comfort and ambiance provided.

Excellent person, very friendly and very helpful. In the villa was very nice the place and a few minutes away from center.

The apartment is perfect for Playa. 1min to the beach. 5min to 5th Avenue with all the restaurants and stores. Just a short summary: Great terrace for breakfast. Got every day breakfast from a nearby store and spend 1h in the sun and listening to the see. Watching the stars at night with a Corona - priceless and let you rethink your life. Perfect communication with Ben and Andrea via Whatsup. They were always there when you needed them. Late check-out? No problem! Ben also send me a list with the best value for money restaurants in Playa. Really helpful. Reliable internet. We used to watch Apple TV movies. Comfortable bed with anti mosqito net (helps a lot). I would not hesitate a second to recommend the apartment. PS: Best welcome present: 5 Coronas in the fridge.

I did not personally meet Ben, but he was very responsive by email, and his representative Andrea met us at the apartment. It is in a lovely, and very convenient location within easy walking distance to beach, shops and 5th Avenue. I especially enjoyed the view of the trees and ocean from the balcony. The apartment is not as big as depicted in the pictures, and it is in need of a little tlc. I had an issue with the toilet seat being broken, but Ben got this fixed quickly. It is in a nice, quiet area except for some noisy neighborhood dogs, which really didn't bother me too much. I do prefer a darker room for sleeping but some well placed towels really helped. The stairs up are quite steep and I don't think this would be a great place for elderly or young kids. The pool looked nice, but we didn't use it with the beach so close by. Overall, it was a adequately equipped and with a little work will be a great place to stay.

Benoit's place is simply perfect. Just a few steps from the beach, for the most part away from the noise, yet close enough to anything and everything that you might need. The apartment itself is cool, comfortable, and an ideal place to relax. Everything just worked out perfectly.

This place is in a great location. Walking distance to 5th ave and if you have a car you can drive around easily too. Great pool to cool off in, the beach wasn't great a lot of seaweed and a sewage smell.

The place is really nice

Ben's place is in an excellent location just a block from the beach. The apartment is lovely and Ben was very friendly & helpful as we were arriving, directing us to a friend of his to pickup the keys & offering tips about the region and the neighborhood. There is an electricity poll immediately outside the balcony, which I felt got in the way of good photos or feeling your ocean view is completely unobstructed but it is still a very beautiful ocean view, especially at night on a full moon. We slept with the windows open & the fan on & this was very comfortable. There are some nice restaurants & shops nearby which are not as touristy as 5th Ave, this is a great perk. The neighbors were very friendly as well. Great apartment!

WE HAD A FABULOUS TIME! Ben left us a bottle of wine + a fruit plate and water in the fridge to welcome us. His apartment was exactly as described and what the pictures show. Just fantastic. The location is at the north end of Playa del Carmen just minutes away from Avenida 5th and 100m away from the beach. The only not ideal things were that there was construction going on during our stay and they turned off the water several times. Also the beach right next to the apartment is not very big. Go there you will love it. Rica and Arne

We had a great time at Benoits place. The moment we entered is was feeling like home. A welcome package containing beer, water and fruits was waiting for us. No really need to go shopping as very good restaurants are just around the corner. His appartment is very well located in relaxed neighbourhood. Only 2 minutes away from the Beach and one block away from the 5th Avenue. Hence very quiet. The WiFi was the best we have experienced during our trip, but we did not use netflix or the other options like Apple TV as we spend most of the time outside and at night we enjoyed the view from his balcony. We will definately com back.

I agree with everyone else when they say this place is awesome!! It is blocks from everything including playa mamitas (3 blocks) and quinta avenida (1/2 block) where we usually hang out (if anyone has a doubt about distance to the beach just check (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) maps). The AC worked perfectly and since T.D. specifies there a limit for it's usage we use it wisely and didn't pass the limit of kilowatts, anyway you don't need it that much, it's mostly for the nights :) The kitchen was fully equipped, it even has some shot glasses ;) The rooms were also perfect with a lot of space for the clothes in the closet. There just can't be a complain at all for this condo since it is perfectly described in the description and the price is unbeatable. I will definitely be returning soon!!

We had an amazing stay at Tobias' apartment! Tobias is very friendly and accommodating! He was very informative and gave us great tips about the area and how to find gems to visit in Quintana Roo. The apartment is wonderfully located, only two blocks from Mamita's Beach and half a block from 5th Avenida (the Main Street in this beautiful city, with shops, restaurants, bars, and everything you need for a great stroll). The apartment is beautifully decorated with mexican artisany, and has all of the amenities including AC which we were grateful for because it can get pretty warm. The place is cozy, convenient, and it will feel like your personal home in Playa after a few days. The kitchen is well equipped with everything necessary to cook your own meals. Also, the apartment has it's own reserved parking spot directly outside of the complex, which was great because we rented a car during our stay. I can not imagine a better place to stay at Playa Del Carmen. It was a perfect home for our vacation! Thanks Tobias! -Jessica and Steven

We loved staying at T.D's place. The central location of the place next to all the action happening on 5th avenue was just what we were looking for. The place was just far enough away so the noise did not disturb our sleep. The walk to Mamitas Beach was only 5 min away. The place was very cozy and we felt very safe staying there. We felt the pool was a little small for our liking (only since we were really looking for a place that had a nice pool).... but as long as you're not looking for that as your big selling point a very nice place to stay. Internet worked great for the most part.... it was very easy to contact the host as well throughout the days we were there.

Great apt, super easy and clear check in. Originally planned to only stay 2 days, however after seeing what a great location it was and how lightning fast the internet is we extended our stay, which was fast and easy. Super quite, clean and comfortable.

Plenty of emails leading up to our stay to see if we required anything and to then welcome us.

The place was very nice and lived up to the description in every way. Staying in Mid-December (fabulous weather!), we did not use any air conditioning or fans and used far less electricity than the rather generous daily allowance. This is a very spacious, fully-equipped apartment that would accommodate a lengthy stay. There were just two of us, wanting separate rooms, but the place would easily accommodate two couples (full kitchen, large living room, dining table, two bedrooms and two bathrooms).

The place was exactly as described spacious, close to all the restaurants and very clean. T.D. was available and very quick to answer any questions we had. I would definitely book with him again if I were to come back to Playa de Carmen.

Loved the apartment, we all liked having the kitchen, fridge and clean water. Only thing I would say is that the aircon has been the most expensive out of everywhere we have traveled. We hardly used the aircon and we still had to pay even more than the original allowance of electricity. If you stay here, maybe send a reminder email that you are coming because I think they forgot we were arriving and the keys weren't there. Overall though we thought it was really cute and we had a great time. Thanks !

Me and my husband stayed here for 2 nights and had the best time. Lesley was very helpful and recommended several great restaurants to us that we probably wouldn't have found otherwise. It's close to the beach and the city center and it's also close to the bus terminal. Highly recommended!

Jesus was absolutely excellent! Met us as soon as we arrived and showed us the house, as well as some of the best local restaurants, and even helped us when Aeroméxico had to deliver lost luggage.

Lesley has a great apartment. It was the first place we felt truly comfortable after travelling 2 months through Mexico. WiFi is fast, kitchen had some helpful ingredients for cooking, the bedrooms are very well air conditoned, and there's a bunch of good restaurants near by. It's a 15 minute walk off the tourist strip, but we liked that. Lesley is a great person too. Fun to talk to and always helpful.

The flat is near everything. There is everything you need in it. Lesley and Jesus are very kind and welcoming. It was perfect !

Jesus is an amazing host. We were late arriving and he accommodated us and was waiting for us when we arrived. He had a beer in the fridge for me waiting too! The place was very clean and accommodating and in a great location. You can walk a block and catch a cab at any time. Beach is walking distance. When I had an issue with the hot water (really no issue, my bf figured it out) Jesus was ready to send maintenance over. Overall great place and location, great host, couldn't ask for more.

Awesome value for Playa. Everything in Playa is walking distance. Great hosts. I'll stay here again next time.

My fiancé and I have stayed at many Airbnb places. Jesus was an amazing host! One of the best we have encountered! He spoke perfect English and was great at communicating via text or a phone call. He gave us some great recommendations for food, where to shop and even some graffiti mural locations for our engagement photo shoot. He went above and beyond! We have recommended his apartment for our guests that will be visiting next year for our wedding. The price can't be beat. Great location just off 5th Avenue on a quiet street. Super clean apartment. He even had snorkel masks in case we wanted to go snorkeling!! Book this place!!!

Cozy and beautiful place! Good location!

Everything was really good. Excellent value for the money. Highly recommend to stay if you are traveling by car.

Really a wonderful place to stay, clean, well secured, quite and everything you need, close to everything, restaurants, grocery store and taxis are easy to get! Loved the place!

A clean and comfortable place. A little far to the beach for us. Otherwise great.

We enjoy the place.Alberto is a very nice guy.

The house is pretty and Alberto was very responsive. It is not very close to the center but the taxis are very cheap so it is not a problem at all. Overall, I would recommend staying there!

The hoy se was lovely we had a great stay at Alberto's place! Close to everything, shops, food,... We highly recommend it. Thanks a lot!!

Location is about 5-7 minutes in taxi from the center but we preferred this way more than staying in the center. The neighborhood is extremely quite and secure. If needed you have a restaurant and a pharmacy just nearby. The house is just like in the pictures, very comfy. The beds are very good, we slept well. Overall nice experience, will stay again here for next time!

Pretty nice appartment, big enough for 2 to 4. Appreciate a/c in every room. A must, close to the highway but far enough to avoid the noise.

Jonathan was very attentive and the place was clean and perfectly located. It was awesome being able to walk everywhere. I will definitely stay here again.

Great location. Loved the rooftop deck.

The studio apartment is in a great location close to the local collectivos, ADO bus station, public beach/restaurants, produce markets, and 5th Ave. There is a small market downstairs for beer, bottled water, drinks, and grocery items. Mamma Mia pizza across street and close to many local inexpensive restaurants within 2 block radius yet close to the higher end 5th Ave options. Good security with strong metal locking gate going into courtyard where the stairs are located. Gate is locked nightly with padlock and your provided a key. There is a heavy metal locking security gate which protects front door. It is very clean and spacious with good storage for clothes and supplies. Kitchen has plenty of cookware, plates, utensils to prepare meals with 4 burner stove/oven, and nice size fridge. Toaster was a nice bonus. Internet and A/C worked very well. Unit has good firm double bed and nice futon sofa sleeper. Wonderful rooftop patio with seating and shade canopy which is nice for morning coffee, sunsets, and people watching on street below. Jonathan is a super host who is very prompt to respond to any minor needs/request! A+++ Communications!!!! He was great to arrange housekeeping around your schedule which was very nice! There is a lot of new construction in the area and remodeling happening with other units but that is urban growth and no control of host. Light sleeper may need earplugs when staying near central downtown Playa. This is my favorite area of PDC. I highly recommend the studio and Jonathan, the superhost!!!

Jonathan and his family are great hosts. The apartment is great, clean and the perfect location near the beach. When I had a concern about the security Jonathan upgraded to a metal gate on the same day! That's amazing service. My thanks to Jonathan and his wife and Colin for helping with translation. Would definitely recommend!

The place was really clean and had a great terrace! It was also really close to the ferry terminal which is great because our group was heading to cozumel for a dive! Jon was very responsive and flexible. Would definitely book his place again when I'm back in Playa del Carmen!

Everything was great. There was a little miscommunication with Jonathan but it was his day off and I booked a few hours prior arrival. As soon as he was informed he made sure the apartment was ready. The apartment had everything needed and I would strongly recommend it.

Johnathan is an excellent host. Great communication, was attentive to any needs we had. We had a couple of small bumps that were solved immediately. 1) there was a problem with the electricity going out, once, and Johnathan was available and repaired with no waiting. 2) there was damage to the patio door that prevented it locking, and Johnathan came within 5 min (at 9pm!) and provided a good (if not temporary) repair that secured the door. Clean! Spotless might be more the word. Pleasant, simple, and easy. This is in the 'older' part of town, yet still very close and easy walking to the main tourest part of town. Being my first visit to Playa del Carmen, I was unaware of the neighbourhood. One should be prepared for the colourful, yet pleasant, area. During our stay they were building at each end of the block, so some business early in the day, but the apartment was still reasonably quiet.

First of all I would like to thank Jonathan and his wife for the care and timely answers to all the questions I posed. Check-out and check-in was quickly and without any problems. The accommodation is located on the second floor of a two storey building. courtyard has a lockable gate at night - adding Safety (you will have the keys). 3 minute walk to 5th Avenue, 5 minutes from the sea. In my opinion the apartment just perfect !!! Although not a large size has everything you need - WC, shower (including hot water), kitchen (stove, refrigerator, sink), A/C, ceiling fan, wi-fi, satellite tv. Replacing of the bed linen and towels, waste removal - every 3 days . There private terrace overlooking the quiet street. Photos on the site is fully correspond to reality. Jonathan was doing everything necessary to our comfortable staying. Ideally, considering the low price. Highly recommend!!!

Thank you Dascar for this nice trip. The appartment is well equipped and has everything you need like in a real hotel. While our trip we had private Atmosphere after long days at the beach. The jacuzzi is pretty cozy and private, just a bit too warm in my opinion, but everything is like in the description. We just have two negative aspects, the noise in the nights ,but just when you are sitting outside, you won't hear anything inside the bedroom. The second aspect is the indigo beach club, this beach was not really beautiful, dirty water and fish smell. But you will find some paradise beaches 1-2km away from the apartment. Thanks for having ! Best regards Kevin and laura

My boyfriend and I had a WONDERFUL time at Dascar's place. It's beautiful from the pictures and even more beautiful in person. The decor was amazing. We loved the hot tub and it felt like a little secluded resort/bungalow, but at the same time shops, restaurants and nightlife were easily accessible. We also enjoyed that it was very close to the beach. We wish we could have stayed longer, but will be back if we get the chance!

This home is just as stunning and relaxing as the pictures. Check-in was very easy and everyone was so kind and accommodating. I had some questions prior to arrival and Dascar responded within minutes of messaging her. The location is perfect, I walked the whole strip as it's only a few steps from the front door. There's endless amazing restaurants and shopping everywhere. Yes, it is very loud on weekends, but I like that atmosphere and once I was in bed I couldn't hear anything. I will definitely try returning here!

We stayed for 4 nights and the apartment was excellent. It was very clean and secure. The pictures do not do it justice. It was centrally located and close to everything. The service from the concierge was great and prompt. The host was extremely responsive to all our inquiries. Will definitely stay here again!

This was indeed a great romantic getaway. We loved everything about it

Dascar's place was lovely. My boyfriend and I were thoroughly impressed and we don't think the pictures did it justice. You get two stories, the second story has a private hot tub and small bed in an inside loft "just in case," as the management team will say. You have your own "wing" or story--a locked gate door to access your palace. The place is very bright and spacious. From the living room you can hear birds and other wild creatures--it's lovely in the morning. The neighboring units are viewable and you can easily see into other places, and vice versa. The shower is amazing, although the hot water only worked for about 20 min--we think the issue was resolved though. The condo is one block from all the hustle and bustle, and many of the night clubs. You would think the noise would be of concern but it's not--you are also provided with a noise machine, just in case. If you're looking to enjoy the tourism spots, shopping and restaurants, this location is perfect for you. Also the beach is a block and a half away. Straight out the front door onto the beach is Indigo Grill, where you can use your VIP status card--the reason for your appx $60 resort fee. Grab a bed or a couple of lounge chairs and enjoy the views. Overall we were very impressed. Dascar was responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend you book her place---plan on spending a little time there, or it'll feel like a waste.

Centrally located with no shortage of restaurants, shopping and fun parties. Adjacent to the beach, and a very accomodating staff.

Absolutely beautiful Airbnb! My boyfriend and I stopped here for two nights to explore the Playa Del Carmen, the beach and 5th street. We couldn't have picked a better place! The home is just as pictured, the check-in was easy and the location is unbeatable. You are located one block from the beach and one block from 5th street, putting you within walking distance to everything! The only negative is that the home is located on a street with a few nightclubs which we thought was going to be an issue for sleep but we truly couldn't hear anything once we closed the windows and turned the sound machine on next to the bed. The jacuzzi was a great addition to the property as well. Only thing I wish we knew beforehand is that the loft is not connected to the main house by stairs - you have to walk outside and up the stairs to the rooftop to access it. Overall 5 star stay, would highly recommend it!!

Alessandro was unbelievably helpful. I broke bones in both my feet and couldn't walk for the last few days of my visit. He helped me with all sorts of things and made sure I was comfortable. His condo is very nice on its own but his professionalism and eagerness to make you have a great time really make it an outstanding value!

Alessandro's place was great! We were so close to the beach and the rooftop pool was an awesome perk. Would definitely stay here again.

Alessandro was a total legend. I had to book this one close to my time of arrival and yet he was immediately available to guide me in to Playa, helping me book a great taxi service from the airport. I really love the pad, very self contained with a lush chill out area on the top floor that I used all the time. Alessandro also told me the best places to eat in all of Playa so ensure that you ask him about where to get Taco's Al Pastor. Totally amazing!! Great host, top location, excellent price. Boom!

Alessandro was an excellent and very helpful host from the beginning of our reservation through the end! He was there to meet us when we arrived, provided some excellent food and activity recommendations, and was always quick to respond to our questions. The apartment was clean and well maintained. He arranged for a cleaning service to come in the middle of our stay as well which was a nice added touch of hospitality. The location is only a short walk from 5th Avenue and the rooftop pool/lounge area quickly became a favorite spot. I would highly recommend this condo!

Our stay was excellent. My boyfriend and I came to PDC for the first time and Alessandro was a great host. Extremely accommodating for our late arrival (12am). Alessandro suggested great restaurants for us to experience Authentic Mexican cuisine. The rooftop pool was amazing! So relaxing and simply perfect. The apartment was spacious and comfortable. Very close to busy 5th, just a short walk away. Orange Cafe and Charley's Pasta directly downstairs are a must! Would love to come back again.

Loved staying in alessandro's apartment in February 2014. The apartment is a great size, has a beautiful roof terrace and is in easy walking distance of everything you would want in playa. Alessandro was very helpful and a fantastic host. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in playa del Carmen!!

Nice place to spend some time in Playa Del Carmen and escape the crowds at the same time. Good apartments and nice swimming pool area on the rooftop! Breakfast is a bit poor (only sweets) and for early birds. Alessandro is a nice guy and a good host. We had a nice time here...

Alessandro was super helpful! He helped us arrange a shuttle from the airport to the accommodations. Desiree was also very sweet. She helped us arrange a tour to Chichen Itza and gave us the lay of the land. She explained how to get around the city and gave us lots of tips about places to eat, beaches to visit, and things to do. The apartment was situated about a 10 minute walk from the main strip, and the city was easy to navigate. The pool on the roof was nice at night! Right across the street is a fabulous pasta restaurant.. Papa Charlys. Overall, a very great experience! Thanks!

We had a great experience staying at the Blue Pearl. It's a very convenient location for walking to the beach, bars, shops and restaurants. The room was clean and in good condition. We didn't use the kitchen much, but it was nice to have the refrigerator and coffee maker. If we are lucky enough to come back to Playa, we would love to stay here again.

The apartments of the blue pearl are unique, beautiful, cozy and very clean! Erika is a wonderful host very nice & smart as well as the whole staff. I enjoyed my holiday very much !!! The pool on the roof top as well as the view are awesome. Maybe some ear plugs are helpful when the canadian hokey team is playing and the bar downstairs is crowed with fans :-)! But hey we're on vacation so enough time to relax on the beach! Thanks for everybody to make my holidays unique ! Hugs Jutta

We had a great time at the studio. It was clean very well decorated and at a great location. The tub in the balcony was definitely a plus, also the pool on the rooftop is great to soak your feet and chill in the afternoon before going out. We loved the rustic/modern decoration and finishings of the apartment and building. Everything was working properly and we didn't have any inconveniences. The building is very safe and the area can't be better, it's in the heart of the party court close to Quinta Ave. Noise is not really an issue if you close the doors but it's quite busy at nights. Overall a great experience and will definitely recommend if you are visiting Playa for the first time. 5 stars

I arrived extremely late and Vero still greeted me with a smile. She was very kind and accommodating. This is a great centrally located room, close to everything and a short walk to the beach. It's best for someone looking to enjoy the nightlife in Playa Del Carmen, as it's surrounded by many bars.

Our stay at Blue Pearl was great! Staying here was such an affordable and nice way to visit Mexico. The rooms were clean and cozy. Communication with the owner was quick. We rented a car and were able to park on the street in front of the building 3 out of 4 nights. The location is very close to many things. Only complaint is the neighborhood can be a bit loud but we are heavy sleepers so it wasn't a problem. But if you plan to go out during your stay, this is clearly the place to be!

Everything perfect!..the apartment is nice, clean and comfortable but first of all the location is simply amazing, close to everything. Highly recommended

Excellent location. Steps away from the beach and la Quinta Ave where all the great shops and restaurants are and only blocks away the collectivo pick up. The apartment was exactly what me and my boyfriend were looking for and the hot tub was a nice touch. Unlike other Air B&B this was like hotel service. Every day we had a made bed and fresh towels. Erika was a wonderful host! I asked her to decorate the room for my partners birthday and we were welcomed with balloons all over the room. She also recommend great restaurants nearby and was available for any questions. It was perfect. Thank you! :)

Amazing apartment in a superb location literally 50m from the beach. The decor was beautiful and very typical of Mexico and the Hot Tub on the terrace was very welcome after a long flight from the UK. 5th Avenue is just three minutes walk away with all its shopping and restaurants. There are a few clubs very close by that proved to be rather noisy especially the somewhat Canadian place located on the ground floor of the appts but the noise didn't prove too bothersome to us. The Kitchenette was ok but as we didn't use cant comment too much on it We would certainly stay there again and recommend the place to other travellers and would like to thank the hosts for making our stay very pleasant - hope to see you again next year!!

Although it took a few hours to meet up with Luz to get into the apartment, once I was there it was a great place to stay! Luz is very nice, well traveled and used to having people from all over the world around her. She is a wealth of stories, very kind, and is considerate and accommodating. The room I stayed in was very nice, with a dresser, a nice sized bed, and air conditioning if I needed it. There is a balcony off of the apartment with sliding doors which looks out onto the park near by. It is very close to the beach, restaurants, and feels very safe. I had a great time in Playa del Carmen this year! Thanks Luz! Myan Binder

There is no words to describe how good it was to be in that place. The host is an awesome human being who did more than I was expected. She even made us a dinner to make us taste different local food. My favourite activity was to hang out on the rooftop admiring the beautiful ocean view and all around. It will be without any hesitation that I would recommend this place if you want to enjoy Mexico. Thanks Lucy & Chris!

George and I have been to Playa several times and the weather was exceptional this time as was our stay at Lucy's. The condo was new, clean, easy to move about in-2 bed 2 bath and a wonderfully quiet private pool on the rooftop AND it was secure. We were within walking distance to everything-Walmart, Fifth St., beaches, etc. We were right next to the Plaza and the celebrations/carnival. It could be a little noisy at times but we would close up the windows and put on the air and it was silent. Lucy was a gem-we enjoyed our conversations with her about every topic under the sun! She is a wealth of information about the area, things to do, places to go and the culture. We felt like we had been friends for a long time! We would not hesitate to stay there again.

Were do I start?! Firstly the place is absolutely stunning, super modern and rooftop pool is perfect. Also whole time we used it only saw one other person in the common area so you have lots of privacy which is always nice. Secondly luizi is so accommodating and nice. She allowed is a slightly earlier check in as we were already ready which was appreciated. She had placed some food in the fridge for us and there was also some bottle of the spirits in the freezer which we were also allowed. Both bedrooms has very comfortable beds and TVs in both rooms! Matches description perfectly. It exceeded expectations. Only regret is I didn't say longer. Will stay for a full week next time

Luzi's apartment was awesome! Super clean, great location right in the middle of Playa del Carmen. Steps away from the beach & 5th Ave with all the shops & restaurants. Clean rooms, everything you need is already there. Luzi met us at the property & got us all checked in & answered a few questions we had about the (URL HIDDEN) was our first time here. Luzi was awesome throughout our stay. We had a great time even though the clubs were only a block away (not really our thing), This is THE SPOT if you want to be in Playa del Carmen & close to everything, but still enjoy some quiet. Overall, 5 stars on all fronts. Highly Recommended!

I love this place! My room had a small balcony attached, the roof was private enough for some alone time and no lines and the area is perfect. You are not to far away from fifth but far enough to not be disturbed! I am a 22 year old girl and traveled alone there and and now at home, safe as ever. Not even a scratch or bruise. I recommend it for a single traveler or someone who just wants to relax but have some company at the same time! Luzi is an incredible person who makes you feel right at home. Even if you can't speak much Spanish and are stumbling while learning, she is there to help you! I hope when you go there you find the piece of my heart I left behind. I will for sure be coming back!!! Viva la mexico 3

It is a great place to stay, it's small but it has everything you will need! We went for a bachelorette party and the place was perfect for us, it wasn't that far from the beach and the house is very complete it has everything you need. We personally loved it! The jacuzzi was hot and that was great, although we could use more light in the pool area at night... The neighborhood is safe and quiet.

My husband and I stayed with Luzi twice now. Both experiences were absolutely wonderful. Luzi is an incredible person who is so kind and helpful. She enjoys sharing her beautiful town with others and will always go out of her way to help you have the best experience possible. Her clean and cozy home is in a perfect (URL HIDDEN) is super close to the beach, Avenida Quinta (main strip), and grocery stores. Both occasions we rented a car but that was only because we had a wedding to go to that was far. Additionally, we planned out some day trips that were hours away. You will be completely fine without a car though....and if for some reason you want to leave Playa, Luzi will help you figure out the best way to get there. Luzi has become one of our very good friends and I know that we will be seeing her and Playa very soon...oh and Luzi, plan a trip to NYC soon! We miss you already.

Ana is very kind and professional host, she is timely and precise. The place is very clean and cozy, you can find everything you need in. The flat is quite close to the center - about 20 minutes walking - and you can get the bus to everywhere on the 30th avenue located 5 minutes walking distance from the place. The neighborhood where the apartment is located in quiet, inexpensive and safe: you can breathe the authentic mexican atmosphere. I do reccomand the Ana's place.

The studio is really perfect. Close to an almost private beach where you can enjoy the best of Playa without climbing over people. The kitchen is a little primitive, but enough for preparing breakfast and simple meals. Right outside is the walking path to fifth avenue with all restaurants and shops. In the evenings there is lights all the way to keep it secure and easy. Ana is a great and kind. She is eager to help out and make sure everything is as great as it can be. I would stay here again for sure.

The place was clean, spacious, and comfortable. We loved that it wasn't in the heart of the tourist area, and could drive or walk a few minutes to great taco stands and juice spots. Also excellent that it was so close to a small, uncrowded beach.

Ana was very accommodating and always made sure to communicate with me. Her place is really clean, close to the beach and about 30 minute walk from 38th avenue where all the action starts.

We stayed 4 nights at Ana's apartment conveniently located far from the caos of the 5th avenue and close to a nice beach and local stores. We would recommend it to anyone looking for a reasonable solution and wanting to enjoy the real-life of Mexicans. Ana was a very kind and attentive host, giving us helpful indications during our holiday and waiting for us till late in the night on our arrival and leaving some delicious pastries for us. Definitely a positive experience.

We had an amazing time at Ana's cozy studio. It was in perfect proximity to the beach and not far from the town center. In fact, we took a beautiful walk along the beach from Ana's place all the way to the main town every day! It was close enough to feel like there is a ton to do but also allows you the feeling of being in a actual neighborhood in Playa. It was a highlight of our trip so far and I would highly recommend this comfy spot to anyone!

Ana was a great host. She provides clear instructions and recommendations. The studio is in a quiet area far from the noise but close to the beach. I hope I can go back in the near future. Highly recommended.

Ana is absolutely lovely and helpful. The studio, the location and the beach are great. Would stay there again with pleasure.

Jorge is the best host you can imagine. Always reachable by his phone through call or (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN)! Whenever you need something he'll help you to figure it out! Very nice room with really big bed and a well working AC. Also Wifi is perfect working. Also a phone for FREE! calls in all countries. Only little critics: Maybe the additional hanging lock of the front door should be renewed. Doesn't always work properly! Takes some to open and close without practice but that's ok. And maybe a water pump would be great in order to increase the pressure out of the tubes so you can really get rid of the sand from the beach (which is by the way 2 mins walking distance away!! Awesome!) Great price for great place! Really recommendable... Definitely come back :) Thanks Jorge!

Great stay!

Great location to explore from but you will hear the nightlife until 5 or 6am

Great location, close to everything. The apartment is just like on the pics. The only missing thing is real windows, but there is enough light coming through the wholes in the ceiling. Just a bit humid as not much fresh air can come in. We didn't meet Jorge in person, but he is very responding, helpful and open.

Great guest, Jorge was not here but Monica was available eveytime. Great welcoming and very friendly. The place is a bit noisy due to the neighbourhood but it's very well located in the center of Playa.

The location of this place was amazing. It was at the heart of everything and to get anywhere it was perfect. The air conditioning worked really well and was a necessity for the trip. The room was very clean, other than a few bugs that you can't really avoid in that weather. The bed was comfortable and clean. The area was very safe and we never had any trouble with anyone in the building. Jorge before the trip was extremely helpful in giving us information and welcoming us. The problems were that: the room was not the same one that is posted on the ad. The bed was a bit smaller and we did not have a stove or a microwave. This was a problem for us as we were looking to save money by buying groceries. There was also a big problem when we got there as no one was there to greet us in a building with so many rooms. We had to call from a pay phone in order to reach the person that was supposed to give us the keys as it wasn't Jorge but one of his employees. We also did not like that another person that the host was receiving knocked on our door to leave his keys with us because no one was there for him to check out. After we asked Jorge about the microwave, we did not receive a proper answer and told us to contact his employee ourselves which we did not like because this should be taken care by the host.

Couldn't be better for the price, we were one block from 5th Avenue, and two from the beach. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to go back soon(URL HIDDEN) Estuvo muy bien por el precio, una cuadra de Quinta Avenida, y dos de la playa. Nos encanto y esperamos volver pronto.

English: Jorge was awesome! Very accommodating and kind. ALWAYS made sure we were comfortable and had what we needed! He was a great host, we really enjoyed our stay at his studio! Spanish: La estancia con Jorge fue muy agradable, el estudio no pude estar mejor ubicado, a unos cuantos pasos de la playa y de la 5ta. Avenida. Jorge estuvo al pendiente de lo que necesitábamos y siempre fue amable con las dudas que teníamos. Un buen lugar para hospedarse en playa del Carmen!

Excelente lugar, a 10 minutos de la playa y cerca de la salida a la carretera. Todo muy bien

Excelente anfitrion, muy atento y amable. Siempre en comunicacion y atento a todo detalle!. Super recomendado!

Gran lugar, habitación limpia y súper recomendable. La ubicación también era perfecta. El lugar está tal cual como las fotos, sin problemas me quedaría de nuevo!

Convenient, well located & reliable host

Muy amable y atento Javier, muy bonito y limpio el estudio. Muchas gracias la estadía estuvo genial

The place was good and we had our privacy. The flat is close to the beach, restaurants, night life and anything that a tourist may need. Ivan was a great host, he gave us plenty of advices and even helped us to arrange our tour to chichen itza. He was very helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this flat. Great place....

Ivan was a great host! Extremely friendly and the place was great felt very welcomed and the location is prime!

Ivan is an amazing host. It make you feel at home. The flat is very close to the 5th Avenue and the beach it's perfect.

Ivan is super cool and was communicative. Probably one of the best AirBnB stats I've had so far in Playa.

Nice place, fantastic location, very friendly host

Ivan was a great host! I stayed with him for two weeks. He was very friendly and helpful. His house was close to shops, bars, restaurants, etc. Ivan was very open and let me use his house as if it was my own. He also helped me find restaurants to go to, etc. I would definitely recommend staying with Ivan!

Absolutely the best value, needed at stay in Playa del Carmen and it worked out beautifully! Thank you Ivan!

My room was spacious and sunny and very comfortable. It is located one block from the main tourist promenade and two blocks from the beach. It is on a bustling avenue with lots of restaurants, shops, banks and commercial activity, but street noise was minimal in my room.

Great location, Phil was very helpful.

The place was nice. It was located very close to clubs and the loud noise did not stop until 5-6am. This would not suit people not seeking the night life. I would also suggest to Phil and Maria that they provide blankets for their guests.

The listing was true to what was said about the apartment. We enjoyed our stay immensely and would love to stay again. The apartment had everything we needed and Phil was quick and to the point when he showed us his place, which we liked ( more beach time).He got us a good deal on an excursion and would get back to us promptly when we had a question. It did get noisy but was stated in the description and we didn't have an issue. Thank you for making our stay enjoyable and affordable!

This is a great place to take tours and go party! It's close to everywhere and you can have good advises from Phil!

This is a nice apartment very close to 5th avenue and the playa del carmen beach. Phil is helpful and recommended us nice tours with special prices. The place is close to a noisy night club and Phil provided us with ear plugs. Actually we can fall asleep despite the noise because we were tired enough every night so it doesn't matter really. In a word, it's a nice apartment with great location, nice experience~

Phil & Maria responded to every communication immediately and gave us advice for things to do in Playa. The apartment was on a quieter street one block away from all the busy attractions and the beach. It was beautiful and clean! I would recommend it to anyone.

Great place to stay at, the location is super convinient.

While the photos were a bit optimistic, the price was fair; good AC, great location, good service by Phil. Thanks
