“Truly Magnificent Vacation in every Way!!”
Reviewed October 11, 2011

Excellent, elegant property in an amazing location! EASILY accessible to all Playa del Carmen’s best beaches, restaurants and shopping!! Location, location, and great amenities!!!! This is truly one of the best properties in downtown Playa del Carmen. Our group stayed in a beautifully appointed and decorated 3 bedroom penthouse with terrific ocean views! Everything was just a few steps away, no need for a rental car or taxis!! Excellent service at both the condo and the beach club. Helpful, pleasant concierge service at desk. Fun yoga on the beach with Sam! Our group loved starlit evenings on our rooftop and jacuzzi!!

Porto Playa is the perfect location for a girls get-away!

We are at Porto Playa right now looking across a beautiful courtyard to an elevated pool. It seems very quiet this time with perhaps 50% occupancy. That seems to be the seasonally adjusted trend as 5th Ave was less congested as well. Fine for us. It looks as if there are approximately 20 condos with a new restaurant next door that had a room servive menu and poolside service as well. We are in unit #216 and the bed appears to have a pillowtop on a VERY firm mattress. Not hard all…very comfortable. We went up to the rooftop however that appears to be for the penthouse units.

The maintenance seems top notch…excellent front desk(Erik) has great English skills and the maid service to clean the dishes and tidy up very timely. We are only staying 2 days and will be trying El Taj for a couple days. We have been to the beach club over there and to the Gym here…both top notch. We are paying appoximately the same for a 2 bedroom here(1/2 block off the beach) as a 1 bedroom at El Taj. I will post a review when we return to reality to compare the properties which evidently are under the same management.

This condo hotel is in a primo spot, you have a great beach one block away with umbrellas and towels for guests that stay there. The kitchen has everything you need to cook or make your drinks for your stay. there isn’t to much activity on the property so it is a great relaxing place to stay and swim at the pool. Yet you can walk to all the bars,restaurants.

We love this place.

Porto Playa was the ideal location for a beach vacation with the girls! We were steps from the crystal clear Carribean waters of Playa Del Carmen and one block from the hip 5th Avenue strip of restaurants and shops. The condo was luxurious and the service was impeccable. Porto Playa also has a fabulous pool and deck perfect for soaking up the Mexican sun. The condo included a full service kitchen which was great for early evening cocktails and appetizers. Overall, our vacation to Playa Del Carmen was a wonderful experience and we are looking forward to going back. We would definitely recommend this condo to anyone looking for luxury, relaxation, and some fun in the sun!
