Great location, close to restaurants and beach, clean, comfortable

Great location walking distance to Quinta Avenida great customer service

This 2 bedroom condo was just perfect. Everything was just perfect from the location to the essentially private pool as there are only 5 other condos in the complex, easy access with the condo front door no more than 30 feet from the street, perfectly decorated so it feels luxuries, stocked with everything you could imagine, safe area, priced right, every amenity one needs except washer and dryer, but crazy cheap laundry service around the corner will wash, dry and fold your stuff so cheap you will leave feeling guilty without a good tip, owners are awesome and on top of any requests, AC works great, water pressure awesome, water temperatures just like back home, best low priced, high quality restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner across the street on corner called Toscana Grill, two blocks from Mamita’s beach and Freshly Fish - crazy cheap place for drinks with cheap descent food. I’ll try to stay here as much as possible moving forward.

This is a fabulous location which is clean, safe, yet in the heart of everywhere you would want to be. Staying here was one of the best family vacations ever. Highly recommended.

This apartment was perfect for two couples. Clean, hot water, close to everything. I would stay here again. Hosts communicate very quickly.

Great spot! Great times! Just off 5th Ave. Not far from the beach

We've been coming to Playa Del Carmen (PDC) for decades, love the town, the beach, the people. We were THRILLED with this unit. You can't find a better location; a spacious "home" in the middle of the city, but far enough away from the noise and yet less than a minute to Starbucks, restaurants and The Street (Avenida 5). A 5 minute walk to Kool Beach Club. Perfect.

We loved the location and the mexico vibe within the condo,lyle the owner was very helpful in bringing this once in a lifetime experience to light with lots of knowledge of the area and so easy to get a hold of, don't stay here if you want a resort controlling what you eat when you eat or what you do for entertainment ,great , great place , the pool was abit on the cool side it didn't get much sun but the ocean is so close and the shady pool was so welcoming after a full day at the beach, it was a clean pool that we had to our selves everyday lol , very great restaurants all within walking distance and many choices of goodness, we are so happy our story of playa del carmen is about us and not a resort that you do the same everyday but of what we were able to experience , do try you wont regret.+ Partingtons. Canada Peace

We enjoyed our stay very much. We loved having 2 balconies, one to watch the action on the street, and one to listen to the doves while reading and having our morning coffee. We used the pool every day and went to the beach several times. The pool was refreshing! Beach umbrellas were available in the condo which were very useful. The condo is as shown, lovely and clean as are the grounds and pool area. We walked every day to shop, eat and explore the town. There are a lot of terrific cafes nearby. Taxi's are close by if you need one. We used to stay at all-inclusive resorts while in Mexico, we are happy we went with VRBO. Using the Cancun shuttle service Lyle suggested worked perfectly and was reasonably priced. Thanks Lyle and Jan for sharing your MX home!

This condo sits less than a block from bustling 5th Avenue yet is surprisingly quiet. The positioning of the bldg is perfect for enjoying evening breezes on the shaded main deck (or people watching from the small front deck). It also keeps the unit cool without excessive AC use. Making online rental arrangements can feel risky, but this unit is exactly as shown in the listing photos. When we arrived it was very clean, well maintained and comfortable. Lyle was wonderful to deal with and went out of his way to provide helpful advice prior to our arrival. We absolutely recommend Unit 2 at Chan Bahlum without hesitation!

Lyle and Jan, what a beautiful condo you have. Everything you need is there. So close to 5th with so many restaurants and shopping is awesome. Beds were so comfortable. Its hard to believe you are so close to a busy avenue but you don't hear a thing. Look forward to returning again. Thanks so much Tammy and Rob Laing Alberta ,Canada.

This property does not mislead in its description! Great location with easy access to 5th Avenue, taxis and great restaurants. Unit was exactly as described with a warm, welcoming vibe. Lyle and Jan were extremely helpful and informative, as was everyone we met in Playa del Carmen. Be sure to use the shuttle service from the Cancun Airport. Flawless service.

Super clean cute condo in a great location. The host always responded promptly. We had a great stay.

Place was beautiful, clean and in a quite location. And the best part, it’s only a couple feet from 5th ave(like a 1 minute walk). My family enjoyed the stay. Thank you. Will be returning for future trips.

Good location, nicely furnished and decorated. I was pleasantly surprised to get internet access to music and TV- bring your I pad. A quiet place in a busy town.

First time in Playa and loved the vibe, Martina’s Beach Club - little longer walk than Mamita’s, but well worth it - many, many good, inexpensive restaurants, and Hector, our driver was wonderful! He picked us up from airport, took us on day excursion to Chichen Itza and Il Kil cenote, and took us back to airport. The unit is marvelous - very comfortable beds and relatively spacious bathrooms. We loved the multiple terraces. The kitchen and supplies well-appointed, though we didn’t use it much - see above. Also, notable for tennis, yoga, and track enthusiasts - Interplaya Park around the corner on 10th Ave. offers free yoga - Alejandra is amazing! and tennis. You can also run on soft track and watch really good soccer practice mid morning. Also, good yoga at The Gym - Alan’s Vinyasa class is very good, $16/session.

Lovely apartment - well furnished with all the 'extras' you could want. Very close to the centre but surprisingly quiet.

First off this was our first experience not going to a resort, and Lyle was quick to answer all of our rookie questions promptly and we really appreciated having transport to/from the airport arranged by him as well. Both drivers were prompt, friendly and service was excellent. We stayed 21 days and found the location was great and close to everything! Just around the corner for 5th Ave with all of the restaurants and coffee shops, and yes all that shopping! Just a short walk (15-20min) to the Mega or (20-25min) to the Walmart for groceries. Inexpensive taxi from either back to the condo (70-100pesos). Lyle also guided us on the Beach Clubs, and we enjoyed Encanto Beach Club for 350 pesos per person (which goes towards anything your eat or drink) each, which while a 15-20min walk away was very quiet compared to the ones closer by that cost considerably more crowded.cost much more and were really loud! The unit itself was nice and clean and had everything you could need to eat in. As we were staying 21 days we requested a cleaning once a week, which Lyle arrange for us for 350 pesos and it was a very through cleaning taking 2.5hrs long. We barely used the AC as by keeping the doors to the two patios open and the ceiling fans going there was a nice breeze thru the unit. The only time we turned on the AC was at night as there was some noise coming from 5th Ave, usually Friday and Saturday night, but with the patio doors shut you hardly heard anything. The pool was shaded, plus big enough to cool down in after a day walking around, and the grounds were cleaned regularly, and the gated secure condo complex is small and is very quiet, consisting of two buildings and only three units per building. We were surprised at how quiet the common area around the pool was given that you are steps away from busy 5th Ave, and we enjoyed time there reading or sitting up on the main balcony having breakfast and coffee in there morning, and a few days we just simply stayed there relaxing and reading. We recommend this place based on the cost and its convenience to everything you can access. Thank you Lyle and Jan!

Location could not have been better. Charming Mexican property & furnishings. Very secure & comfortable. Stayed for 2 weeks & did so much more than we have done previously at resort vacations. It was great to have Netflix & music system on the day it rained. The Breville counter oven is a fantastic appliance & did not heat the apartment up. Lyle & Jan were very gracious hosts, wonderful to work with. It was great to know that Marinho/Eduardo were meeting us & returning us to the airport. Both went out of their way to help. The pool area was a peaceful little sanctuary, water cold though. No complaints; thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Condo was steps from 5th Ave. where all the shops and restaurants you could ever want are, and just 2 blocks from Mamitas Beach where we attended the annual Riviera Maya Jazz Festival. Lyle's friend Marinho who picked us up and returned us to the airport was very nice and helpful. He stopped at the grocery store for us on the way to the condo which was very helpful.

We stayed 6 nights and enjoyed it. Condo suited all our needs and was in a great location central to all we wanted to access. This was our second time staying at this condo and will not be the last!

First off, Lyle was great with communication through email and that is really appreciated. The condo was very clean, spacious and cool (we hardly used the A/C). Screens on all the windows a plus! We travelled with 2 kids (2 yrs and 4 yrs old) and it was very manageable with them in this condo. The beds/pillows/linens were very comfortable, we had great sleeps. The location is great, so close to 5th ave. We appreciated the proximity to many nearby restaurants (our fav was Chez Celine for breakfast), but there are sooo many others. Being that close to 5th there is some evening noise, which is to be expected, however, it was a very quiet complex and, like I said, we slept well. Kitchen is a bit awkward to make large meals, but you can still make do, plus you are in Playa Del Carmen so how many home cooked meals are you really going to make? Pool was in the shade almost always during our stay, which is what we were looking for since we would be drenched with sun at the beach. It was very refreshing to swim in the pool after being at the beach for a couple hours. Also, Marinho, our recommended driver, was great as well. Would definitely recommend this place...and driver!!

We absolutely love staying here. It’s one of our favourite places in Playa!

Well maintained and comfortable. Everything you need is here, So much better than a hotel at a competitive rate. I visit Playa 3-4 times a year and this is my favorite condo I’ve rented. I will definitely rent again. The owner even provided contact with a driver, Marinho, who provided our transportation. Everything went well and no issues at all.

I loved it so much and I think it is s such a great place for a family to have a vacation

My husband and I will most definitely be back. We never wanted to leave. The condo is in a great location. Close to the beach too. The selection of restaurants near by is endless. Noise was never a problem. Unit was clean, and beds were comfy. WE loved it. Lyle was extremely helpful and provided us with good suggestions on what to do while we were there. Even gave us the name of his driver to use which we used and highly recommend., If you are still searching for a place, look no further. You won't be disappointed. The ferry to Cozumel is within walking distance. We highly recommend checking out the beached and snorkeling there, But in all, the condo truly was perfect for us. Quiet. Just a few steps from everything. We are already planning on our next trip down and we will definitely be staying here.
