We have stayed in this building on over 6 occasions due to its proximity to the beach and the vibe on Calle 38. First time in this condo and as usual impressed with cleanliness and spaciousness. The management was very prompt any issues. We had a shower head which was leaking and an issue with the refrigerator cooling. Both problems promptly taken care of. Highly recommend this as an ideal location for an enjoyable stay

Great Playa Rental - Clean and Fantastic Location

We had a wonderful stay at this charming rental! It’s not fancy, but it was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The location was perfect - ideal really. Great pools, and just a short walk to several public beaches and within easy reach of local shops and restaurants. Perfect for two adults and two teenagers. We’ll be back for sure!

Playa Trip

We have been coming to Playa for many years and have always wanted to stay in this area as it is much quainter and quieter. The host was very responsive to issues/questions. The rooftop pool is AMAZING with great views. It was a great place to relax and enjoy the sun. We met a lot of people who come there every year and they are so friendly. We would definitely come back.

Host was responsive when contacted. The building and unit we stayed in needs updating. We had to contact the Angel Host person to resolve 5 separate maintenance items. First was the bed. I sat down, not jumped, on it when we arrived and it broke (I weigh 140lbs). The wooden frame wasn't put together properly. Maintenance fixed it by using longer screws, but it still isn't put together properly... The other issues: a shower head was spraying water sideways out of the shower and all the way to the toilet, a shower was clogged somehow, a mini-split wasn't working, and a sink was leaking quite a bit. All were resolved pretty quickly.Beyond the maintenance issues, the couch seems like patio furniture, so it was fine for a couple minutes but after a long day of walking around, the lack of cushion was quickly felt. Beds were comfortable.The location of the building is nice. 38th street is really pretty to walk down, and such a short walk to 5th. We only heard loud music from a bar/club one night but it wasn't disturbing, just background noise really.As of Dec 24, 2025, the beach at 38th is non-existent.We ended up visiting Playa Esmeralda and the main beach where the Cozumel ferry docks. Those were really nice, plenty of sand.The rooftop pool was really nice.If we went back to Playa Del Carmen, we'd probably stay in a different place. For the cost, we expected it to be better.

Pluses and minuses

Pluses: one block from the beach, fantastic rooftop infinity pool view, lots of shops and restaurants nearbyMinuses: facilities are not in awesome condition. Toilet stopped flushing. Maintenance came promptly but after they fixed it it stopped flushing after 3 uses (we just stopped using that toilet and fortunately had another bathroom). A shower head fell off in the middle of showering. Cockroach came into apartment.
