About this property

5th Ave & 28th St - Perfect Location in Playa del Carmen

Tropical, gated property called Eclipse Condos with charming Mexican condo right at amazing 5th avenue and 2 blocks to Mamitas Beach, the best beach in Playa del Carmen. Professionally remodeled and decorated, bright new furniture and decor to feel like "home" in Mexico. Our condo/apartment is 1100 sq ft with 10-foot ceilings, 2nd floor, in a building of only 9 apartments. Private, well-appointed and great for a weekend or a lifetime. There is private, tropical balcony overlooking a pool, and a small swimming pool in our complex which is actually a cenote, and you always feel safe to walk along 5th avenue or play at gorgeous Club Mamitas where for a few dollars you can rent a beach umbrella and lounge chairs for a day while waiters bring you food and drinks and you can listen to the music played all afternoon for beach-goers and sea swimmers. The water and beach are gorgeous, sand is soft and white and clean, water is calm and clear, and the environment is just breathtaking for fun, romance, or just relaxing. Water sport rentals are steps away. The master bedroom has a king-size bed with private full bathroom, and the second bedroom has two twin beds which can convert to a king, with second brightly tiled full bathroom. Kitchen is complete, washer/dryer included, all you could need to set up housekeeping, or who cares, just stroll out the door to find amazing food up and down 5th Avenue! Dining room seats 6 and all plates, flatware, etc are provided. Living room has 2 new, full-leather couches. Wireless internet, big-screen TV in the living room plus TV in the master bedroom, with cable and guest Netflix account available, all for free. We have a great bi-lingual property manager on-site most of the time (she's accessible by phone when she's not on-site), a full-time maintenance man, professional housekeepers, and a 24-hr security guard posted right outside our gate at the hotel right across the street. No worries! A/C is excellent and ceiling fans in all rooms. Bottom line: you are steps away from amazing fun and world-class food, beaches and shopping, yet your condo is quiet at night and you can sleep peacefully! One of my favorite things: you are 1/2 block from the biggest, most beautiful Starbucks I've ever seen, and just steps from amazing restaurants - Italian, Mayan, French, and of course authentic Mexican. For fun, you can walk down 5th Avenue to the center of town and take a short ferry to Cozumel island and spend the day there. Our condo has free parking for your rental car, and we normally do rent a car when we come, though most days we walk everywhere.

We loved our stay
The property was accurately described and so close to the beach it was superb… all amenities were super close and we loved the proximity to the grocery stores and Walmart…if you are looking for a pool, this one is only for a dip and cooling off after the beach….not a lap pool. Wifi was great and the kitchen well equipped. Would stay again. We stayed for 30 days.

Heart of the action!
The pictures don’t do it justice! This place is SO MUCH MORE prettier than expected 😍 and it feels like a home.. we stayed at 3 different places during our vaca and this was the only place that was comfortable enough that you could just flop down after a long day of shopping or beaching and flip on the tv just like ya do at home. It was great! And, even though you are literally right spack in the middle of all the action, it was quite! I couldn’t believe it, I mean of course there’s music that you can hear but it wasn’t bothersome at all, I actually didn’t notice it until my bf said he wanted to go find it, lol. Check in & out was effortless and the property manager is an absolute sweetheart, not to mention the owners are the kindest people ever! I just can’t say enough great stuff about this place, there’s gelato right across the street, you have to try the lime basil 😁 amazing, and the beach is so close, I spent most of my time shopping but there’s just so much to see and do and you are right there in it, lol. Oh yeah and they had a huge jug of drinking water in the kitchen which was really nice, everything was spotless and there’s even a little balcony in the master bedroom that I didn’t even know about until we got there… All in all this place is the perfect place to stay for anyone, family, friends, whatever it was GREAT!!!!!

Property was not as close to the beach as expected, couldn't even see the ocean from our location. Pool was extra small and scenery was not ideal from the pool. Was quiet except for the construction across the street.

Playa del Carmen is fun and with this apartment you are in the heart of the action but off 5th avenue so not too loud when trying to sleep. Pool is small but refreshing, beach is 5 minute walk. Great for group on a budget. Apartment had two bathrooms which was key. There are stairs to the apartment as it is on second level. Thanks!

About the host

Hosted by Julie Cook

Host profile image
Warren and Julie have 4 awesome grown kids and 1 beautiful grandson (#2 is on the way). For many years Julie has said, "I'd rather have memories than things", and we've traveled extensively as a family and built many memories. Our favorite vacation spot is Playa del Carmen, and we finally bought our own piece of heaven there a few years ago, and could not love it more. For many years we have pastored a church in San Antonio, Texas and run a successful executive recruiting business as well.

Why they chose this property

After traveling in Mexico for many years, primarily in Cancun, Cozumel, the Riviera Maya and Playa del Carmen we realized we LOVED Playa and could live there if we didn't have to leave our kids in the states! It's got every amenity we could hope for, it's reasonably inexpensive, you always feel safe, many locals speak some English, the beaches are amazing, food is great, locals are super-nice. We picked this condo after looking at lots and lots of properties because it's 1/2 block from 5th Avenue and about 1/2 way from central square and the far end, right where beautiful shops and restaurants are, and yet the condo is quaint, authentic Mexican, and quiet at night. Beautiful, safe, convenient. Plus the local property manager is super - on top of everything, faithful, consistent, trustworthy, honest, bi-lingual.

What makes this property unique

I LOVE the courtyard and the pool watered from a real-live cenote (underground water-filled cave). I LOVE the private, shady balcony that overlooks huge tropical trees and vines and another pool. I LOVE that it has a private parking space for me. I LOVE the location. It's amazing. The condo feels so roomy with its high ceilings. And we had it completely remodeled by a local decorator/designer who primarily does high-end botique hotels. And you feel so safe walking around the neighborhood - it's authentic Mexican with all the class, taste and fun - with modern and exotic dining and fantastic shopping nearby. And the walk to the beach is so pleasant, passing the shops, cantinas, clubs, etc. And our condo has a beach umbrella and beach bags you can use for your day at the beach. And proximity to Mamitas Beach - the best beach anywhere! I love it all! And Vagabunda restaurant for breakfast omelettes and cappucino. Yum!
