We stayed 5 nights at Luna Encantada (D1) and loved it! The condo was beautiful, exactly as pictured, and absolutely perfect for our family.The views from our private terrace were STUNNING! We were literal steps from the pool and beach and from all the restaurants and shops. Everything was SO easy, which is HUGE when traveling with kids!! We never had trouble finding chairs by the pool or on the beach. One morning we had the pool to ourselves for hours! We ordered some drinks and dinner one night from the beach club next door and it was all delicious! Another day we had an easy walk on the beach to catch the ferry to Cozumel. We rented a car for our stay and the free on site garage was wonderful! The convenience of everything made our stay completely stress free. And everyone was so nice. While we LOVED being steps away from the everything, I did not realize we were also steps away from a public beach entrance. This was really only noticeable in the evenings when our “private” beach became quite crowded. While the location of our condo could not be beat, this was the only drawback (and it was just a small one). The only disappointment we had was the seaweed in the water. Of course that is no one’s fault, and there were clean up crews regularly working to remove the seaweed from the beach. I don’t mention this to dissuade you from booking this property, but definitely do some research on water conditions if you are wanting that clear, turquoise ocean swimming experience.

Loved our time at Luna Encantada. Such a convenient location to everything Playa has to offer. The condo is literally next door to a beach club that plays music non-stop. I knew this going in. If you were not prepared for it you may not be super pleased. It doesn’t stop. We gave ourselves up to the music and really it’s a nice vibe during the day. Feel like at night they could turn it down a few notches and it would make a huge difference. Didn’t bother us but you are not getting away from it if that’s not your thing. Loved so much having the beach club next door for dining and beach service. Food is really great and presentation is lovely. Drinks were on point. Massages at the beach club loft area are actually to die for. Our group all agrees best you can get, anywhere. Pool is nice and beach was well kept. Lina Encantada feels like its own little escape but 5th Ave is 1-2 blocks easy walk away. Rental company has many great minks for information. We had catering dropped at house on second day of arrival and groceries delivered pre arrival. Always a great way to start a trip. Condo was fairly well appointed and the patio is really perfection. Views are remarkable. Plenty of towels and appreciate the water bottle service. Beds are more firm than I have experienced in other units in same complex. That would be my one tiny negative but the rest makes up for that in spades. Love love love Luna Encantada. Already dreaming of returning.

Loved being right by the pool and the beach! Layout was great for our family - kids had one room, grandpa had another and we had our own. Staff were all helpful and kind. Music from restaurant next door on one side and then another one a bit down the beach was a little loud but both stopped by midnight.

This property’s location can’t be beat if you want beach access and walking distance to all the restaurants and shops in playa del Carmen. We really enjoyed the pool, the easy beach access, and exploring and finding dinner every day. Somehow I missed seeing the email with the check in instructions and Susan was easily accessible to tell me what to do. Our kids are 12,14,16 and it couldn’t have been more perfect for our family. Thanks so much!

This property is exactly as listed, right on the beachfront and a beautiful, three bedroom condo. Beds comfy, great showers, all the kitchen amenities needed, filtered water station. Condo is close to all of the action of 5th Avenue - we walked everywhere ; it was New Years so walked to all of the amazing restaurants all week, Coco Bongo, Wal-Mart, Gym, Mall, Ferry to Cozumel. It’s all super close and easy. In the middle of 2 beach clubs so we got drinks and food on both sides, INTI music is loud and doesn’t really quit which was fun during New Years Week but often went late into the night and you definitely hear it in the bedroom. The Only downside. Susan is an amazing owner and communicator with restaurant recommendations, responded when we were there with questions on the TV and also when we needed additional water for the filtration container. Fun times - thanks Susan!

We loved our very nice condo & its location near the ocean, the infinity pool & fifth avenue-along with great shops, restaurants, grocery stores & authentic street tacos. We felt very safe @ loved Victor & Abdi. Communication was good, taxis close by & couldn’t have asked for a better time. Can’t wait to go back.

Condo, location, beach and beach management of chairs are 5 Stars. Infinity Pool is awesome. Only complaint is place next door plays music until late at night. During the day and early night it is great! Some bedrooms hear music clearly. Master Bedroom does not hear as bad. Even with that, would highly recommend.
