Rented a 2 bedroom/2 bath second floor condo for a couples trip. The property is very pretty and well maintained and the pool was great. The condo was clean and stocked with everything we needed. It is located 1 block from 5th Ave and 2 blocks from the beach. We prepaid for breakfast but only ate there one day as the selection was not that big (maybe because of Covid precautions). Front desk was very attentive and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.
I stayed in a two bedroom, two bathroom condo and was very happy with my choice! Absolutely beautiful condo with all the amenities (including drinking water). Fantastic service by front desk and security; I always felt welcome, safe and secure. Everything in the condo and the common areas was clean and in good working order. Centrally located between the beach and 5th avenue - 2 minute walk to each. Everything you can possibly need is within walking distance, this is a well run condo hotel in the perfect location!
Modern units, all with big balconies and some with ocean views. Great heated pool, friendly staff and super close to 5th Ave and all the mayhem. We stayed for a month but some were occupied for a few days by groups of people. Some 2 bedroom some larger with the top floor units having their own rooftop deck with a hot tub and grill. The associated beach club had good food reasonably priced in a very nice water front setting but no actual beach - the water came right up to the restaurant. All units had wifi that worked well even down at the pool. Really great spot for short or long term stay in Playa del Carmen - check it out.
This group of condos is very nice. Modern, well appointed, very clean, very close to 5th Avenue (2 min walk) great heated pool and only a 5 min walk to the beach and beach club. We had a great balcony and rooftop with a hot tub and grill. There were a couple of glitches but nothing that would stop us from staying here again. The glitches are common to any stay in Mexico even on the resorts. Water pressure in the shower sucks, power points fall off the wall, toilets have to be flushed 4 times and the wifi which was excellent in the condo and at the pool was totally absent on our rooftop hot tub/grill area. The staff in the front office were completely hopeless but the staff we dealt with on a day to day basis were great. The security guy on the front gate, the cleaning ladies the general helper all excellent and all to happy to help. The one thing that took a bit of getting used to was that the condo came with nothing - that is no trash bags, no paper towels - no dish washing liquid - nothing. Electricity was rationed where we paid for excess use so if you do stay remember to turn off the hot tub its chews through electricity and go easy on the air-conditioning or you will be in for a rude surprise at checkout. We knew all this going in so no complaints - I guess when they said it comes with nothing they really meant it - I didn't realize we would be at Wal-Mart buying trash bags. Because of its location we walked everywhere - very very convenient. The property is on First Ave which turns in to a police trap late at night - this is not the fault of the property just a fact of life - be wary walking back after midnight - its not petty crime you have to be aware of but the police. Again this is not the fault of this condo it will be an issue no matter where you stay. All in all a great spot great value great location just the usual issues you run in to anywhere in Mexico. Will definitely stay again.…
Last year was our tenth winter as renters in mexico and the quality of accommodation has varied greatly. Porto Playa is by far the best condo we have ever experienced. Let me list some of the benefits which are often lacking in other condos. Great location. One block from la Quinta shopping street. Two blocks from the beach. Super safe day or night. Prompt and professional attention to ANY problem which arises. Night time. Weekend. It doesn’t matter if something goes wrong they will fix it. Amazing. Thorough and timely cleaning inside, terrace, balcony and waste removal. The staff actually have cleaning checklists. Heated swimming pools and hot tubs. PH and bacteria are monitored on a schedule. Professional staff willing to help with travel plans, business arrangements etc. Beautiful design with central gardens, attached gymnasium. Strong reliable internet with wifi boosters in every condo. This is most unusual in mexico. I tried to think of some problems but can’t think of anything. …
