Great place, construction upstairs is reason for 3*

Beautiful condo in a wonderfully located complex. Gorgeous views from the balcony. Condo was well appointed and had top quality microwave, coffee maker etc. Love the convenient location to the restaurants and Oxxo of PA. Only things to consider improving is alliwing major renovations to occer at that time of year. Isnt supposed to, but was?? Air exchanger in master is very loud and master bath could use a very deep cleaning, but otherwise peefect!! Hopeful managers can better coordinate with owners to prevent renos from occurring in the future outside the designated time periods i instead of saying theyd impose a fee on whoever, which theydhave the option of simply paying and continuing. It was an unfortunate series of events that detracted from an otherwise perfect stay at an amazing property!

You NEED to stay here!

I can't recommend this property enough. It was an absolutely perfect location. We had the whole private beach pretty much to ourselves while we were there. The property was clean, quiet and all the staff was so helpful. Ivonne was an absolute Godsend and answered every question I had to help us navigate the property. Taxi's were readily available in a designated section for us to take to Playa Del Carmen, where we went often to eat and shop. On our last day we taxi'd over to the ferry and rode that over to Cozumel for an amazing snorkel trip. Whether staying at the property to enjoy the beach or pool or heading to Xcaret, Playa Del Carmen or wherever you feel like going, you'll be coming back to a place that really felt like home! We were able to make breakfast in the kitchen and there was plenty of fresh water. Again, can't recommend this property enough!!

We will be back! Perfect location. Beautiful condo. I could walk 5 minutes into town to the local grocery store and all the restaurants, and marina to the fishing boat we rented. Nothing beats Puerto Aventuras and certainly Villas del Mar I. We didn't travel anywhere else and you don't have to. It's all there. Thank you, Kenneth!

Better than advertised!

Hands down the best equipped vacation rental we’ve been to. The owners have made sure you have everything you need for a fantastic vacation AND the unit and property are beautiful. A sea and pool view from the balcony for morning coffee or evening cocktails made our stay even better. You couldn’t ask for a better location. The lagoon with great restaurant choices is a 5 minute walk from the condo. We were able to choose from , Mexican, Italian, Tex-mex, Japanese , Thai and American food. The community as well as the condo complex are secure and safe. We will be putting this rental on our return to list. Thank you to the owners for sharing their beautiful home with us!

A home away from home!

The condo, the property and the gated community of Puerta Aventuras made us feel relaxed and safe. Since the town and all the restaurants is literally just a few minutes walk through a gate at the condo complex, we were able to quickly get food and little necessities without ever getting in the car. We even got our COVID tests done in the little town area. The pools were fabulous and there was plenty of space at the beach. The condo was spacious and the rooms were really large. We loved the size of the patio, too! Our family of 4 was quite comfortable. The property manager was easy to contact and quick to respond. It was a bonus to have her be able to get us our groceries before arrival, as well. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

We loved Puerto Aventuras

We spent ten nights in this great condo. Cool ocean breezes and beautiful sunrises greeted us. The condo is well-located, just a short walk from the beach and pools - and close to parking to bring up luggage and groceries. It's also in a quiet spot (I've stayed in two other units, and this one is relatively quiet). We found the condo very comfortable and well-equipped. All of the appliances worked well. We cooked most meals and had everything we needed. We had minor internet issues, but we expected that. The living room is particularly great, with a comfy sofa and two super-cushy recliners. We ate all but one meal outside on the balcony, which was a real treat. We appreciated the half bath, so that we didn't have to risk waking anyone sleeping in the bedrooms. And the bath and beach towels were plentiful and of good quality. Future guests may want to know that the master bedroom mattress is firm. Communication with the owner was easy. He was very responsive and helpful. We had one minor issue, which the local property manager resolved within 15 minutes. Also, for future guests, be sure to try Mamalona's burger joint just outside the PA gates next to the gas station. Not a great location, but better food than we had at any of the restaurants on the marina. We ate there three times and had consistently great food and service. The burgers and onion rings were so good that I'd be recommending them if we had a Mamalona's in Chicago. The whole family had an amazing time and we look forward to returning to PA.

Thank you for the wonderful memories

Ken was a superb host. The property and its sournding were absolutely what was promised. The place was very clean, had everything we needed to feel at home ( Fully stocked kitchen utensils and laundry room). The property was equipped with 5-gallon water, which was very useful being in Mexico. We were very appreciative of this. The property is close to a big supermarket which was handy. There was plenty of space for us all and we enjoyed the ease of traveling ( we rented a car) throughout the area from this home base. The property is an hour-average drive ( and less) to all the sites and attractions we wanted to see and do with our three teenage boys. Prior to our arrival, an email was sent to us with clear instructions for getting to the property. This was crucial to us since we rented a car with no ability to charge our phones. Thanks to Ken's email we located the property with ease. We had a minor problem of locking the main door. We have contacted one of the staff memebers in the property which fixed the problem in no time. A quick help with a warm smile. We would highly recommend this wonderful property!!!

This was a perfect location and accommodations for our family.

We loved how close the beach was to this property in addition to the gulp kitchen and needed washer and dryer. The location was amazing and we could easily walk out to the beach and back in minutes. We used the coolers we found in the condo each day at the beach and the huge sofa in the living room was perfect after a long day outside. We loved it!

great beach and location

Great beach, much better than the others in the surrounding area. great location as well, make sure to use the side gate to access the PA resturants and shops. Food in PA is rather American-ized, but Tulum is a quick drive for something a little more authentic. Easy access to Tulum and Playa del Carmen as well, we visted both during our stay. Condo itself is very spacious for a 2 bedroom. Pool is great for kids, plenty of space for them to run around and burn off energy.

Perfect family getaway

From booking the condo to the actual stay, we give this unit 5 stars! Ken was quick to respond to any questions, provided helpful info prior to the stay, and Ivonne (property manager) was quick to help during our stay. The condo was perfectly equipped for our family of 5 , even having some beach toys for the kids we didn't expect! We have stayed at Villas del Mar before so we knew the grounds were beautiful with a fantastic location close to the marina. We could walk to dinner every night....and to the Italian Bakery for coffee and pastries in the morning. Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful condo!

The Perfect Vacation

We traveled with our two teenage kids (15 & 18) and it was a hit. We stayed eight nights for our spring break vacation. Kens place in Villas Del Mar is very spacious and clean. The beds are very confortable, the kitchen has everything you need. We ate breakfast every day at "our home." There is a great selection of restaurants for lunch and dinner within the complex - just a five minute walk. A couple of nights we ordered pizza from O Sole Mio while watching Netflix. Other days we ate in town while watching the dolphins. For more aunthenctic Mexican food there is a restaurant called El Mero Mero which is on the highway exit to Puerto Aventuras by the roundabout, great Mexican food for half the price. The pool was a big hit for all of us, specially my daughter who insisted a couple of nights to join her for a night swim. Which was a great experience to float on our backs while enjoying a clear night filled with stars. (We come from NYC so not many stars on this neck of the woods). A few yards away from the pool you have the beautiful Caribbean sea. The beach was excellent, clear warm water with soft sand. My son who loves to snorkel spend hours exploring the sea. There is actually a coral reef if you swim out 200-250 meters away from the green and red miniture light houses. There I found giant brain corals, sea urchins, swam next to a school of more than 50 big blue tang fish, big rainbow parrot fish and saw a sea turtle. Closer to shore we saw different types of fish including several stingrays. We rented a car in Cancun from Yes Rental Car (highly recommend - $320 for 9 days with no hidden fees). We traveled to Tulum Mayan Ruins, climbed an ancient Mayan pyramid in Coba while overlooking the jungle. Went to Cenote Azul, Playa Del Carmen and Playa Akumal where we swam with sea turtles. Ken thank you again for sharing your place and for been so responsive. We hope to be back in the near future.

Everything in the condo itself was perfect...perfectly appointed and absolutely spotless. The view from the balcony encompasses the pools, the grounds and the ocean. The ocean view and ocean breezes are stunning! The pools, the beach and the grounds are perfectly maintained. The ground staff was very nice and accommodating and even brought us fresh coconuts right from the trees. The Marina and restaurant are a short walk away with many very good restaurants. We highly recommend this property and hope to return next year. Thank you, Ken, for a wonderful, relaxing vacation!!

About the host

Hosted by Kenneth Dugas

My wife and I have 3 children and 2 grandchildren. We are business owners with Paramedic and Nursing backgrounds. We love to travel and have always had a dream of owning a place in the Caribbean. In 2014, our dream came true and we feel so blessed to have this place and to be able to share it with othersl

Why they chose this property

We really were looking for a 3 bedroom unit when we came across Villas del Mar D-205. We actually gave up a bedroom and paid more for this condo because we could not pass up buying at this location. The beach and the Caribbean is what we want when we travel. Villas del Mar, in our opinion, had the best beach location in all of Puerto Aventuras! Speaking of Puerto Aventuras, what a perfect place to be in the Riviera Maya! It is the perfect balance between resort and community and has everything you need right there. The gated community is very safe and the additional gate and security in Villas del Mar is so comforting. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. People from all over the world travel to Cancun. However, once in Cancun they book excursions such as nature parks, diving, fishing, seeing the ruins etc. All of these activities are close to Puerto Aventuras! This is the place to be.

What makes this property unique

There are only so many homes with views like this in the world! The pools, beach, palm trees and Caribbean are beautiful. Did I mention location? Couldn't be better!
