The villa was exactly as described very comfortable and homely with a beautiful pool area which was quite private with lovely plants around giving it a luxurious feel.There were shops, bars and beaches within walking distance the local buses were ideal for trips into the more commercialised towns as the area was quite quiet away from the tourists. The local restaurants tended to be pizzerias but did other dishes which were very good. And good supermarkets Aldi lidl Euro spa and mercado a which were very close (walkable) also specialised shops just round the corner a frozen food shop even one that sold ready prepared food to take away and a fresh fruit and vegetable shop.We didn’t hire a car and to be honest we didn’t need one. On the whole it was an ideal place for a lovely holiday but beware of trying to book a taxi on line… we got scammed, do not sign up to anything. There is a taxi rank up at the shopping centre just round the corner (which our host kindly informed us when we told her we were having difficulty)I have to say the host was amazing, extremely helpful and replied to all our questions from the get go enhancing our holiday experience.Although it was close to the airport the noise was not at all a nuisance.We would definitely go to this villa again!!The only one negative was that we had only one set of keys so if my friend and I went out the other person was stuck inside or risked getting locked out but as he was less mobile it wasn’t an issue for us.

We stayed at this property as four adults and really enjoyed our stay. The property had everything we needed in terms of amenities. Washing machine came in handy, we also enjoyed the bbq and private pool. The area of Playa Honda is lovely and quiet with local bars and restaurants near by. Having deiland round the corner was great for food shopping and we even went bowling and played pool there one evening. Would recommend if you don’t want the hustle and bustle of playa del carmen, if you do want to venture there it is 20 euro each way in a taxi which are at the rank down the street. The property is very close to the airport which is also a bonus only took 5-10min. WiFi was good but doesn’t reach the upstairs bedroom.

Playa Honda is a very quiet place, not very touristy, but the villa was perfect, for a quiet retreat away. Lovely villa, and lovely hosts

Excellent location for us and fabulous pool area. A few small items in the house are beginning to look a bit worn and dated but didn't detract from our lovely stay at the Cactus House.
