Pretty clean place. Good comms with the property manager. Beach access an easy 5 min walk. Walk to town also easy, 15 mins. House only being equipped with one 5 gallon water jug was inadequate for group size and duration so we went and bought some (house having a jug exchange service would add value). Kitchen was reasonably well equipped. Road noise on the front rooms solved with earplugs no problem and tapers after 10 or 11. Bedroom with 2 beds that shares bathroom with the master per the property description is actually off the master and only accessible "through" the master. Bien viaje!

I am providing this review having stayed at multiple homes in Playacar, with intimate knowledge of costs and pricing in the area, a sister living in town, and having grown up myself in the culture and language. In short this is not a good place to stay, and many better places are available nearby for the cost. First some good feedback: - Clean rooms, linens, and house - Safe area, easy taxi access, close to town and beach - Great pool, living room, and well equipped kitchen Secondly on areas for concern: - Yard fence broken upon arrival and only propped with sticks to fix - Pool needed shocked prior to use - Poor WIFI reception; had to use neighbor’s guest access - Took host two days to fix non-working AC in family room - Minimal amenities provided with no guidance of how to obtain more (1 jug of water for 16 people, 3 trash bags, 1 pod for dishwasher) – most houses in area provide ample water and amenities to survive more than 1-2 days – very disappointing -Sharp metal plate at pool near shallow end – we needed to cover with pool noodles for safety - Dangerous drop off in family room step – several family members fell with one injured Much of deposit kept for “cleaning” although place was left clean and followed all instructions from host – tracks with minimal amenities and the excessive “host charges” for the booking

The house is beautiful and spacious and the location convenient to so much ---unfortunately it took us half our vacation to figure things out before we could settle in and enjoy our time - this is the first VRBO that we have stayed in that did NOT have a book with basic household info, directions and handy information - for ex, getting fresh water - despite asking in advance we were given no direction on how to get more water when what was there ran out (think cooler size container)- come to find out you can't just buy another large water container but need to exchange what is there and you can only exchange at certain places - pretty tough if you came by taxi and don't have a car - we noted that other places had water exchange - also, 3 days to find the ' 5 minute' walk to the beach despite multiple emails asking about this - other tings to know: what to do with recycling? what day is garbage day? the water to the washing machine is turned off;, we never did figure out how to turn on the water to the outside spigot to rinse the sand off our feet. The inside was overall clean, neat and as described but it seemed as if it had been awhile since the outdoor areas and furniture were cleaned. Overall, if there had been a 'welcome to the house' book upon arrival it would have made things so much smoother - the house itself is in a great spot, the pool is great & cleaned regularly, 6 BR/5 bath is perfect and it really is only a 15 min walk to 5th ave which we did often
