The place was very nice. I would have given the place 5 stars, but there was difficulty/confusion on gaining access and there was some messages after we left about using too much electricity that left me uneasy.
The property was beautiful andwas all we had hoped for. Commuincation with the owner was prompt and professional. Would reccomend this property to anyone.
I couldn't have asked for a better location! The house was perfect, beautifully maintained and wonderfully appointed. The beds and rooms were comfortable. The area right outside the complex feels like a garden - cobblestone street winding around old large trees. There are a few restaurants and an Oxxo across the street, making everything super convenient for meals or supplies. The complex has a golf cart that will take you to the entrance of 5th Avenue, and you can walk to the beach from the same spot. What a great house!
My husband and I had a beautiful week at AWA and grateful that we were able to stay in this beautifully decorated and comfortable 3 bedroom with rooftop. Thanks to Erica for all of her attention to detail and terrific communication throughout our stay. We have stayed at many properties and I must say that AWA although a larger complex was peaceful and private. The owner's of this property are in great hands with Erica. She goes above and beyond to make certain you are happy. Thank you for a lovely week. We would not hesitate to rent this unit again.

About the host
Hosted by Erin Koskey
Years ago, during a family vacation in Playa del Carmen, we stumbled upon a place that instantly felt different—warm, welcoming, full of life, and somehow immediately familiar. What began as a simple dinner out quickly turned into a moment of discovery. As we walked the neighborhood with our children, exploring the paths, the beach, the shops, and the gentle rhythm of Playacar, something clicked. This wasn’t just another vacation spot. It felt like a place where memories wanted to be made.
Over the years, we returned again and again. Sometimes we stayed downtown, sometimes near the beach, sometimes in all-inclusive resorts. But no matter where we booked, we found ourselves wandering back to this neighborhood—to the trees, the quiet streets, the friendly waves from neighbors, and the unmistakable sense of safety and community. Playacar wasn’t just beautiful; it was comforting. It allowed our children to ride bikes freely, run along the pathways, splash in the ocean, and make new friends with each visit. It became our family’s tradition, our home-away-from-home, and a place that consistently tugged at our hearts long after the vacation ended.
When the opportunity came to create a home here, we knew exactly what we wanted to build: a space that captured everything we loved about our stays. We designed our condo with intention—every detail chosen with the same care we would expect for our own family. Comfort, beauty, practicality, and a little touch of luxury. And surrounding it, a community with resort-style amenities, lush nature, and the same warmth that drew us in all those years ago.
Our hope is that when you stay here, you feel the same connection we felt—that sense of belonging, relaxation, and joy that made us fall in love with Playacar. Whether this is your first trip or your tenth, we want this space to be part of your story, just as it became part of ours.
Why they chose this property
Playacar is known for its upscale residential villas, luxury resorts, and peaceful, gated streets. The neighborhood offers a unique blend of tranquility and convenience, with easy access to beaches, restaurants, shopping, and cultural attractions.
Guests appreciate the walkable layout, proximity to Playacar Beach, and short drive to Fifth Avenue, cenotes, and eco-parks. The area is especially popular with families, couples, and international travelers seeking a safe, relaxed base while exploring the Riviera Maya.
Playacar isn’t just a location; it’s a community, a sanctuary, and a place we’re proud to share with others. We hope it captures your heart the same way it captured ours.
What makes this property unique
What truly sets this penthouse apart is the combination of a private rooftop oasis, thoughtful details, and a level of comfort designed with the same standards we expect for our own family.

Families may also request a Pack & Play or highchair.
Optional services are available to make your stay effortless, including airport transfers, grocery delivery, private chef experiences, housekeeping, and personalized day trips.
Safety and peace of mind are central to every stay. The penthouse is equipped with smoke and CO₂ detectors, fire extinguishers, non-slip shower surfaces, rooftop stair and pool handrails, digital safes, and a secure digital entry system with remote assistance. Bedrooms and bathrooms feature keyed locks, and a dedicated landline is provided for emergency use. Reliable connectivity is ensured with mesh Wi-Fi throughout the home.
The building offers 24/7 on-site security, CCTV-monitored common areas, a backup generator, elevator access, and gated assigned parking. Located within the Playacar community, guests enjoy one of the safest residential areas in Playa del Carmen, with controlled access points, registered taxis, and nearby hospitals.
