The property, host Claudine, and house manager/cleaner Maria are fantastic. The property is a ~20 min walk to town and the pictures are accurate (except there is another house located on the other side now and there are sliding doors to the beach; neither of which an issue/detraction at all) so what's not to love. We are a family of 6 and had lots of space. I arranged with Claudine to have food there for our arrival to include Maria cooking meat and fish tacos (yummy!). The beach location is great as it is between several resorts if you want to do sailing or even ski diving. And the beach was not crowded directly in front of her place. Perfect. Thank you Claudine and Maria (and your help) for a great vacation.

When you walk thru the door, I guarantee your jaw will drop. Incredibly laid out, literally right on the water, in a subdivision/gated community that feels like it’s from a fairy tale. Very short distance to great food and nightlife. Great spot for a golf trip too. This is where you want to unwind after a long day in Mexico.

A group of 8 of us stayed here for 3 nights and it was wonderful. We got great recommendations from Host Claudine and she was very quick to respond to us about our questions. While staying at the property, Maria was our housekeeper and she was super nice and made sure to get us everything we needed. It was an absolute pleasure and I recommend to anyone that wants to go to Mexico but doesn’t want the all inclusive resort vibe.

We are a family of eight and really enjoyed the property. We used Claudine’s house manager Maria and her son to help us with shopping and breakfasts. Claudine was very accommodating pre-arrival making sure we had all foods, beverages and other amenities. Maria was really sweet and very accommodating. If we needed something she would organize someone to buy it for us and bring to the house. We also had a private chef for two nights and the chefs said kitchen was well equipped. Our weather was perfect first five days and last day it rained all day. Recommendation if you are looking at forecast and it says rain 60 % or more then do cenotes as an activity since your wet anyways. Highly recommend this property

I locked myself out of the house late on a Sunday night. I made contact and they had another key to me within minutes. That alone deserves a 5 star. The house was great. The location was great. The service was great. Maria is especially great. I would book again.

We really enjoyed our stay!! Claudine's communication was great. She was very informative and helpful with all the questions I asked. She recommended Chef Daveed for our meals and grocery shopping services. His staff was amazing, and all the food was excellent! The house is right on the beach, which was the best thing for a group of people. The neighborhood was absolutely stunning and only a short mile walk into town. The house shows some wear, but it was very clean and comfortable.

Our family of four, two adults and two college kids, had a great time. Claudine is responsive and helpful, and we highly recommend scheduling Maria to cook for several days. She makes excellent pico, guacamole, chicken and steak tacos, rice, beans, and enchiladas Verdes. It was plenty for a hearty lunch and there were always leftovers for dinner. Maria’s daily housekeeping and the days she cooked allowed us to fully relax and reconnect. One thing I would do differently is provide a list of basic grocery items in advance so they were at the house upon arrival. By the time we got settled, the last thing we wanted to do was go fight weekend crowds at the local supermarket. Avoid Walmart at all costs - hit the superstore across from El Fogon (forget the name) as it’s 1000% nicer, more organized and better stocked. Maria cooked the day we arrived, and it was heaven to walk into a deliciously prepared feast after a long day of travel. As other reviewers noted, the beach front is narrow and people can/do set up camp close to the end of the patio, so be aware. We loved the hammock and built in outdoor sofa. There is a brand new house that’s been built butting up to the pool’s left side. Even though it’s hot during the day, we were surprised at how cool the water remained, and wondered if that’s because the pool no longer gets full sunshine with the new build. We opened the entire wall of sliding doors first thing in the morning to enjoy the seamlessness between house/beach that the pictures promise - it was even better than expected! Recommend renting bikes from Roberto, dinner at Don Mario’s and Yum Yum (Thai), and jet skis (rental stand 2 houses down). The property shows it’s age a bit, but did not detract from our trip. The gated neighborhood felt safe and secure, with the hustle and bustle of shops, restaurants, etc, easy to walk or bike to every day. There is a wonderful walk-in COVID test site right outside the gate that was convenient and easy to navigate. All in all, we highly recommend and appreciate Claudine and Maria making our Christmas break so special!

Fantastic property. Claudine was wonderful to work with and Maria made the stay so relaxing. Highly recommend!

Very convenient home with a great host and cleaning service. We had Maria cook a couple of meals and that was great.

Claudia is very responsive and helpful, the home is perfectly laid out for several couples or families, the views are gorgeous, the house is as pictured, and we enjoyed our stay tremendously! The week includes a daily maid service which was very nice. It was the perfect break from our crazy lives. I would highly recommend this rental.

We really enjoyed our stay at the house in Playacar Fase 1. Claudine was easy to talk to and was very helpful with any questions or requests. She recommended Chef Daveed's services and they did not disappoint. Thank you for the great hospitality. We will be back.

This property is incredible! My best friends and I booked this house for my bachelorette and it was everything and more. We were shocked by how beautiful it really was in person both inside and out. The pool was super clean, and cold. The white sand is below the house with steps to the beach. Yeah there was some seaweed on shore, but once you swim past it, there are sandbars of clear blue water that is easily standable. The rooms were really clean, same with the bathroom, no issues there. Kitchen was handy, we were missing garbage bags and soap for the dishwasher was the only issue. The cleaning service (thank you Maria and seniorita) cleaned up the kitchen everyday and tidied around the house. Maria also helped us with multiple taxi's, just the sweetest. The wifi was iffy here and there, but honestly we didn't care because we were hardly on our phones. 5 beds were perfect for me and my 7 girls. Only thing that was difficult is finding the place with the taxi cabs (like 5 times we got lost). The address didnt match up in our GPS system or the taxi service. Best advice is to tell your taxi driver Playacar Fase 1, (NOT fase 2), and once at the security gate, there is a gentleman that can tell the taxi service where to go (or will lead you there), just make sure you mention your in "Casa Marmol". Easy to get lost over there! Overall, amazing house and experience, would def do again with a group of friends or family. Stunning property, and 20 mins walk on the beach to town.

We were not disappointed when we checked into Casa Marmol. The neighborhood was beautiful and the house was amazing! Maria felt like a life-time friend and made our stay so welcoming. Claudine was there for all our questions. The house came with two bikes and was one of the highlights of our trip. We enjoyed riding bikes into town for groceries and enjoyed riding through the beautiful neighborhood. The open living space that led to the outdoor living space was amazing. There had been recent renovations to the outdoor patio with a beautiful outdoor couch under the pergola. Relaxing in the hammock and listening to the ocean was a dream. Despite the hot weather, the pool was cool and very relaxing. Claudine helped us set up private chef service with Chef Daveed, massages at Casa Marmol and had someone come out to us for our Covid test that were required to return to the US. This house is amazing and we definitely want to return.

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Marmol. Playa del Carmen is a wonderful little town and our home away from home was cozy and relaxing. The home is just what we needed for a week. Claudine and Maria were helpful and attentive. We will definitely be back ❤️❤️❤️

Everything was lovely. The pictures on the site don’t even do the actual visual justice as it looks even more beautiful in person. The sounds of the ocean is soothing and relaxing. I would definitely come back to Casa Marmol. Claudine was very helpful and the location was very safe and secure with 24 security and in a gated community. Maria was helpful and on call to all of our home needs. Very satisfied 😊

Had a great time, everyone was so nice and helpful. Would recommend!

We stayed at Casa Marmol for a bachelorette celebration and had a great experience! The location was amazing and safe - the beach was our front yard! Claudine was incredible prior to and during our stay - sent many recommendations and was very responsive throughout. Maria was also a gem who cleaned the house everyday. We booked the private chef with Daveed and had the most authentic Mexican cuisine! The toilets gave us some trouble (as well as some bugs), but overall highly recommend!

We had the best stay at Claudines house for my 30th birthday. There was 5 of us but the house could sleep many more. It was even more beautiful than the pictures! You'll rarely see anyone on the beach outside your house- we swam every day and loved hanging out on the large deck! The house was amazing with marble and sunlight and Maria, the housekeeper was so sweet and helpful. It's walking distance to town and beach clubs/ restaurants via the street or the beach. We plan to go back next year!

There was construction next door that we were not aware of. But for the most part we were happy. Would stay again.

We had such a great time. Claudine the property manager was accommodating and easy to work with. Maria and her daughter Shelly were fantastic with the stay while we were there, and she makes the best picco and guacamole dip. I highly recommend this property.

Great house and terrific experience. Claudine was very helpful coordinating our trip and Maria did a great job of taking care of the house during our stay. My entire group thoroughly enjoyed the house, the beach and the hospitality in Playacar.

The house looks like it does in the photos. We enjoyed waking up at the beach and going for a swim every morning. There were a few small things to improve on e. g no safe to lock valuables and for the ladies ( and some men) no hairdryer. Maria provided a great maid service. Claudine was an excellent host providing updates through the booking process. I’d highly recommend this property for a short stay
