Amazing gateway in Playa del Carmen ! We stay in this amazing villa literally at few steps from the caribbean beach. The "difficult" part was to leave the house because it an heaven on hearth. with a private swimming pool on the back yard deck and jacuzzi tub o the roof deck. Highly recommend this place for a family and friends group hang out and chill. the outdoor kitchen was a plus

I had a really excellent experience, The management was friendly, rooms are really clean and comfortable . I will come back for sure! And I will suggest your property to all my friends and family THANK YOU SO MUCH

we choose this villa randomly after having issue with another renter not affiliated with this villa. Our Stay was short but Lovely. The House is really clean and spacious. It feel really safe inside a gated community with 24/7 security check. We really enjoy the out door kitchen, buy the private pool, for our evening dinner. Amazing beach at @500 foot We are definitely coming back close to the end of the year. Thanks to the host for the quick accommodation and help

We arrived in Cancun, for our 2 week Christmas vacation, only to find that the house we had rented through VRBO was a fraud. Our experience with VRBO was terrible but that is another story. Looking for alternative arrangements 2 days before Christmas was a nightmare! We found Luca's house and he made arrangements for us to make an emergency landing, the same day. He was attentive to all of our needs and arranged daily cleaning. House was clean, close to the beach, everything you needed was available. We had a small problem with one AC in one of the bedrooms and Luca came right away to get it fixed. They also didn't upcharge for electricity like others do in Mexico. Great neighborhood, we loved the restaurants. Walking distance to 5th Ave. House does have a lot of stairs but there are bedrooms on every floor. I called it my Mexican butt lift! Our son referred to it as the lighthouse. We would definitely return!

The villa is a cool place, decent location in Playacar phase 1, always felt very safe. We felt quite swindled once we arrived. We were told that there would be no early check in before 3pm (which is completely reasonable) because the owner told us that it was due to having nobody in villa for 24hours for COVID restrictions. We arrived at 3pm and the cleaning crew was still cleaning garbage everywhere which means we were lied to about COVID safety and 24hr rule. Next there were signs everywhere stating we would have to pay $10 per use for kitchen grill and outdoor grill which was never stated prior to our stay. We never got to enjoy cooking at the villa due to feeling nickel and dimed. Signs everywhere about not touching pool lights or we would be fined, towels on ground fined, seemed like everything had an extra price. The worst part was we were supposed to be supplied with bracelets to enter and exit the gate but instead we were told it was easier to use our ID for pass each time at gate. I’ve stayed in Playacar before and have NEVER had to deal with the daily stress of the gate situation. IT WAS AWFUL and when I contacted host he said to get us bracelets we would be wastin our trip to receive bracelets. but instead we had trouble every time we tried to leave and come back to villa. If you stay here be sure to bring every amentity you would want including all water you will want, even down to salt and pepper if you are going to cook. All in all if you’re looking for a place that’s decent not great then stay here, but was by far the least relaxating and quite difficult time we’ve had in playa del Carmen so far. Truly disappointed.

The place was clean and has a great location couple of blocks from the beach. The property manager was very attentive and responded right away to our needs

The house is filled with art treasures - tile and stain glass wonders. It is an older house that reflects Mexican charm and colour. The three pools kept the kids busy - the outdoor patio was where we spent most of our time - it is a short walk to the beach - and watching the sunrise from the rooftop cabana was great. The Playacar area is very secure and everyone is extremely friendly. Don’t forget to visit Xel-ha and Xcaret, the latter being just a short taxi ride away. Did we love this house - absolutely!!

I rented the place for the 3 pools, but the rooftop bar was the best. The rooftop pool is not a hot tub. The place is amazing, super quick walk to the beach. Luca was responsive when we had any issues.

We were very excited to stay at the property for our recent vacation to Playa del Carmen. There were 6 adults and 7 kids (ages 10-12) in our group. We were pleasantly surprised by the location - especially the safe and beautiful Playacar neighborhood, and proximity to a beautiful beach and to downtown Playa del Carmen. We also loved the pool, tennis courts and the large outdoor patio with plenty of table and chairs. We were also pleased that there was enough seating in the dining area to accommodate our large group. The house had enough bedrooms and bathrooms to accommodate our large party, however it was lacking an area where we could all relax comfortably together inside the house. The furniture and beds in the house were very hard and uncomfortable, and there were many bathroom fixtures that were broken. Luca's property manager responded quickly when we notified him of a broken oven/blown fuse by arriving the next morning to make repairs. Be aware that the Hot Tubs are jetted tubs, but the water does not get hot. The stairs in the home are very steep and have large gaps which could be a concern for families traveling with small children or seniors. Also, the first step leading down to the pool and tennis courts has a very steep angle which was also a safety concern. To make the home more comfortable for future guests, we would recommend adding more towels (especially for large groups of people), more toilet paper, and more paper towels. The home is old and in need of repairs to bathroom fixtures, tiles, etc. A railing should be installed on the stairs for safety and the first stair leading down to the pool should be repaired to level. There were ants in the kitchen the day that the cleaning crew was there, likely caused by leaving the side door open for an extended period of time. Overall, the home is in need of repairs and updates. Overall, we had a wonderful vacation in Playa del Carmen and we enjoyed the outdoor areas of the home and the nearby beach very much.

Great family memories and vacation and great place to stay.

Our stay was amazing. Cant wait to return

My family and I had a wonderful stay at this lovely vacation home. It had everything we needed, the beach was close, the pools were delightful, and the rooms had air conditioning. We were pleased that there was plenty of filtered water to drink, and enough space for 11 of us to dine together either inside or outside. We slept comfortably, and enjoyed days walking to playa del Carmen or venturing to nearby sights like Tulum or Cozumel. Luca and Nicola are wonderful hosts and made sure that our needs were met. Thank you!

We had such a wonderful time! Luca was a great host and the house had everything we needed. Perfect location to relax on a private beach or quickly get into town. Would definitely recommend staying here!

We had an amazing week at Buen Dia Playa! The house had a lot of character and was perfect for our three families (6 adults and 6 children). We thoroughly enjoyed the pools, the tennis court, and most importantly, the beach. The walk to the beach was great! The upper deck was festive and charming. It is obvious that Luca and Nicola have taken recommendations from previous renters seriously and improved many things. The house was well equipped with water, TP, towels, etc. Norma came to clean every day and was very sweet. We loved the location and felt very safe. To quote one of the kids on the trip…”Best vacation ever!!” We can’t wait to go back. Cheers!

The house and accommodations were great and Luca provided great customer service. The big pool Is shared by 4-5 houses but they were empty for the week of our stay so we had it to ourselves. The property is on a nice resort area and the city is a 5-10 drive to get to restaraunts, bars, or wal mart. Would recommend.

The house was just what we wanted. There were 13 of us and it worked very well for that number. As said in other reviews some of the beds were a little bumpy but the one I slept in was fine. It was a good distance from everything and made everything in town super walkable. The spa on the roof wasn't warmed but the weather was warm enough that it didn't matter. One thing I would recommend though is maybe adding a few more extra blankets just because a few of my guests got cold at night. It was a great place and we would definitely stay again!

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the visit. Luca and Nicola were responsive and quick to address any issues. The house had so much character and local style. Things that could use attention: mattresses were very uncomfortable, one of the bathrooms the shower/tub didn't drain well, kitchen had old pots/pans, stained cushions in sitting area downstairs and several of the decorative items were broken. None of these issues were deal breakers, but for the price, some updating and refreshing of the house seems to be in order.

Luqa is as UNPROFESSIONAL as they come. The house first of all is not at all what you expect. Dirty, tons of broken stuff. Multiple AC units were broken, a fan was broken, Lights were not working, all in all just a disaster. We called Luqa to fix it and he sent some guy who came for a half hour and then left, claiming everything was fixed. NOT EVEN CLOSE!!! Luqa basically doesn't care and Didn’t do anything at all The part that put us over the edge, is that once we left, Luqa Decided to keep 290 of our security deposit claiming we broke the AC that we originally told him was broken when we got there. It seems luqa has done this before and likes to use people’s security deposits to upgrade his house. We have put in a dispute and are waiting to hear back from VRBO. This guy shouldn't be allowed to be on any of these home rental apps. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO STAY, KEEP LOOKING, THIS PLACE IS TERRIBLE AND A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY, THEN THROW IN A DISHONEST OWNER, MAKES THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE TERRIBLE!!!!!

This home was spacious and beautiful for our family of 14 who came together from N.D. , CO, UT, KS, and Canada. The kitchen facility was great and the bedrooms were adequate for the number of people. The patio was perfect for gathering and the little pool just off the patio was wonderful for our little 3 year old and the large pool just below the patio was perfect for our 6, 9, and 12 year old and we could see them easily from the patio or join them which we most often did. It was fun for our children to meet families from various countries at the big pool. The short walk through the trees to a beautiful ocean beach was lovely. Laundry facility would have been helpful . Also , for the rental cost plus add on for 4 people over 10 (of which ours were children) I thought a bottle of water per day could have been provided. Luca and Nicola were available when we needed something or to help us with travel to our outings and to and from the airport. We appreciated their hospitality.

Located in private neighborhoods (play car). Amazing Two floors Brand New villa Mexican style. It's great for group of friends or a family With three large bedrooms that I believe can accommodate 10/14 people. They have a large jacuzzi on the rooftop (ocean view) with a separate access From the master bedroom. The living room is nice bright and comfortable wit a cool couch area. The house is literally located 50 foots from the beach. I was in Playa Del Carmen wit a large group of friends that were staying at the Thomphson beach an Aldea Thai and I was able to compare them. I can tell you that Casa Del Sol is way better if you want really relax and unplug. You can hear the ocean and birds instead of construction/city noise. It's better party in town and relax at Casa Del Sol. Location: * * * * * Service. : * * * * * Price:$$ I highly suggest this place to all my friends.
