Great Stay at the Beach

We had a really nice time at Casa Price. A quiet, relaxing place 1 block from the beach. I've stayed at "beachfront" hotels that were farther from the beach than this. It was immaculately clean and Rosa made our stay fantastic. One tip: Google's GPS was about half a block off for us. The house was little to the south of where it showed up on Google. We would happily stay here again.

Beautiful clean house

Staying at this house was an absolute delight! Rosa is absolutely amazing, she cooks delicious breakfast for us and made our stay wonderful. The house had all the amenities we could ask for. The location was perfect, with easy access to local attractions and great restaurants within walking distance. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we'll definitely be booking this place again on our next visit!

We wanted to love it…

Was looking SO forward to this Christmas vacation. Knowing from other reviews this was not a fancy house that it has everything you need but nothing extravagant, take that LITERALLY. It is bare basics. Bring toilet paper!!! You only get 1 roll/bath I can’t even make this up. Messaged the owner as we had no hot water and he seemed annoyed to be bothered. The cheap white plastic Walmart furniture outside was the most uncomfortable garbage I’ve ever seen at a rental.every one of the loungers was unusable as they were all cracked. The furniture in the house should have been outside and new furniture in the house with enough seating for six, which there was not in the living room. Impossible at the end of the day to watch a movie or support a gathering. It honestly was the most uncomfortable rental for all furniture ever. We had pretty rainy weather so to find comfort was impossible The house itself was cute, authentic and clean. Just very tired. The kitchen needs an overhaul.the sink is caving in, the wood on countertop is all cut up.The grass was unwalkable as it is full of weeds, mud and Aguti poop. Now the plus of the house, Rosa. She was a pleasure. She assisted with laundry as doing your own laundry was a big no no. Thank you Rosa for taking care of our little family. In ending, we just felt a feeling of being unwelcome.the host feels totally uninterested and the entire house just looks and feels like the owners don’t care. We wanted to love it but won’t be back.

Our 2nd stay, just as good as the 1st time!

This was our second stay at Casa Price, and we love it here! To be able to find a property this close to the beach, with a pool, in a gated community for this price is unbeatable. And to top it off having Rosa there to cook and clean is priceless. Not many properties come with this luxury, and it is so nice to have that while on vacation. We actually got to meet her daughter, and she was just as helpful as her mom. The beach is a quick one minute walk from the house and it is never crowded because it is in the gated community. The pool is a good size and it is around 5 feet deep throughout the entire pool except for the steps to get in. My favorite place to read is at sunset on the loungers outside the primary bedroom (just make sure you use bug spray). There is a bookshelf full of books in case you forget to bring one. There is only one TV in the living room, so getting your family to decide on what to watch is probably the hardest thing you will do here. Our second stay was just as good as the first time, and we hope to be back for a third!

Casa Price wa a great stay

The house was exactly as pictured.We enjoyed our 5 days at Casa Price before going to Cozumel and staying for another 4 days. It accomodated 5 comfortably. There are electric AC units in every room and they worked very well. The roof top terrace had amazing sunrise views. Rosa was vey sweet and helpful. Her Guacamole was delicious. She made is breakfast a couple times and it was yummy. The only downfall about the house was the water never got very warm so be prepared for cold showers. The beach is a 1 min walk and the house has a few beach chairs and coolers you can use. The Reef club next door is a 3 minute walk its a cool beach club you can go over there and partake on all day drinks , beach chairs and the breakfast and lunch buffett for $50 per person. But get there before 9am if you want more than 2 beach chairs as they go fast. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. Security gaurds are patrolling constantly and are very friendly and helpful. The ruins in the neighborhood are a 5-7 min walk and worth going to see. 5th ave is a quick 15 min walk. The taxi stand sits right outside the gates to go into the comunity so if you want a taxi you can flag down one of the Security guards and ask for one and they will have one sent in for you if you dont want to walk all the way to the gate. I highly recommend dinner at Alux pronounced (Alush) its a little pricy but very worth it as its inside a cave and gorgeous inside. Trujillos is also another amazing restaurant to visit.

1 block from the beach

The location is very close to the beach so major plus, a nice walk to playa (15-20mins) which we did daily. Met Rosa the next morning she was very nice, then her daughter Laura was there after that due to Rosa’s injury. Laura was very nice as well. The reason why I rent houses is for privacy. Unfortunately you’ll see Rosa or Laura every morning until 3. You can decline her cooking but no matter what she will come every day except for her one day off for cleaning. We do our own dishes and keep a clean house daily but she still came everyday. If I wanted room service I would stay at a hotel. So that was frustrating to not have full privacy. Laura did make some dishes which were very good. We mentioned what we would like and she went to the grocery store which was greatly appreciated since I wouldn’t have known what went in the dishes. Then when she returned I paid her for the groceries and taxi. So that was very convenient. I’ll give you a heads up that shuttle drivers from the airport do not know where to go. So just say Playa Car fase 1 then at the security gate a guard will lead your shuttle to the house. Very secure area which is a plus for sure. The neighbor you might have issues with. My 2 nieces from college surprised me with 4 days to go. Sure wasn’t expecting that but after letting Darryl know, well he didn’t believe I didn’t know, but at the end of the conversation he allowed them to stay. I just had to send him an additional $200. Nice place just not for us

Very Disappointed

We have rented a total of six homes in Playacar Phase One, since 2019 and Casa Price comes in last. There were only two of us and when we arrived it was pitch black out. Not one light on anywhere. We used our phone flashlight to open the lockbox and stumbled around to try and find lights. After looking around the house, we realized the Kitchen was on the second floor. and the only access to the pool was going downstairs and out the main door. Once the host receives full payment, you will receive a brochure. The brochure contains all the rules, wifi ect.. and a list of what Rosa can make, but no ingredients/shopping list. We did not want to spend time grocery shopping. and we don't eat breakfast. We are clean people, so we did not use Rosa and asked for our privacy. This saved us the "strongly suggested" tip of 15 percent of the total rental cost. This is not the reason we didn't use her, we just discussed it after. BIG ONE, We only had hot water one day. The lack of attention to resolve this was unacceptable. The host should have made calls on our behalf and kept us updated. I was on vacation. If I wanted to take care of a hot water problem or go grocery shopping, I would have stayed home. The Casa needs some attention and updating. You can only defer things for so long. It is at the very end of Phase One, a long walk to the gate. This is why we rated this property last.

Excellent beach vacation spot!

We were a group of 4 adults and 2 kids. The showstopper here is the beach. The house is a 1 minute walk from the beach. The beach was beautiful, clean, sandy, nice sloped entry to the water and not too wavy. You could walk out for quite a distance and it was only waist-deep. Great for kids. If you want to go to 5th Ave and the main tourist area, it’s about a 20 minute walk. If you’re not into walking, there are plenty of taxis available. We like to walk so it didn’t bother us. There are a couple of resorts nearby. Music and party noise definitely carries over from there or maybe from surrounding houses at night. But generally by about midnight it was quiet. We had a nice time at the house. The housekeeper, Rosa, was very nice and available to help with whatever we needed. We were pretty self sufficient and only had her cook a couple of breakfasts for us, but they were delicious. We shopped for our own food and she prepared it. The wifi was good. There is AC in each room if needed (we didn’t need it because there’s a good breeze.) The house is not a luxury home by any extent but it has what you need to have a good vacation at a good price point. Beach gear, towels, a serviceable kitchen…. What more do you want? The main bedroom is upstairs and has a lovely walk-out to the balcony. The two smaller bedrooms are downstairs on the ground with a small washroom between. Though the washroom was kept extremely clean thanks to Rosa’s hard work, it is a bit dingy and poorly lit. The pool, outdoor shower, and outdoor lounging space was a great bonus. We would take a quick plunge in the pool to cool off after walking home from dinner in the evening. All in all, it was a good spot for us.

Rosa was the icing on the cake.

Despite some bad weather conditions and having to stay at home more than what we had planned we had a wonderful vacation !! This was due to the great floor plan of the property with an upstairs and a downstairs allowing for privacy for whom ever needed it. In addition the house was comfortable and well equipped. It also has a wonderful swimming pool and outdoor space which we used more than we had planned since the local beach was not at its best due to the storms. Notwithstanding all of this, Rosa was the best surprise and who made this trip so special and enjoyable. Her cooking was so delicious that we looked forward to it each day and when we did go out we would be often disappointed because as we would say to each other “Rosa’s cooking is better”. She was very helpful assisting us with securing taxis and finding everything. She is a lovely person and we enjoyed her company. Mostly because of her, we want to return next year.

Great!

Spent 2 weeks at Casa Price. Having Rosa to cook, clean and help out w general advice was such a treat! Although the casa is a bit small it offers a great layout w a big pool by Mexico standards and decent outdoor. It is located just far enough away from the "action" to feel quiet but close enough to bike (we rented bikes which was the right call) to anywhere within Playa Del Carmen. Highly recommended!

Checkin, parking, the quietness of neighborhood, safety, air conditioning, access to the beach, and of course our chef Rosa! All of it made for a great trip in which we even quickly extended our stay. Beach is about 80 yards walk. House has coolers, beach chairs, umbrella. It was just too easy. The only thing I wish we had was better patio furniture. Overall, really enjoyed our stay and can't wait to return for longer!

Beautiful Family Vacation in Playacar

Our whole family loved our relaxing beach vacation!! The house was great: spacious enough for all seven in our family, very clean, well-equipped and is located only one block to the beach. We went daily - even on days when we did tours because it was a great way to end the evening. This was our third trip to this area of Mexico and we chose this specific location based on the closeness to shopping/restaurants of 5th Avenue (it was about 15 minute walk), clean beaches and the quiet neighborhood (where the house was situated). Our planning paid off - the house was everything we hoped for! Rosa is a beautiful and wonderful lady. She is very welcoming and it is clear that she truly loves and takes great pride in being the caretaker of the home. We looked forward to talking with her every morning, learning what we could about local information and things to do, and discussing what delicious meal she would be making. It was soooo nice to come home after a tour/day out to fresh meal and SUPER clean house. I told Rosa she could come back to live with us but she didn't take us up on the offer :) The owner Darryl was also great to deal with. Although we only met through technology - he was very responsive to my questions. We hope to come back again next year!

A Gem in Playa

This is our third time at Casa Price. We stayed here in 2014 and 2015, 6 adults. This time my husband and I took our 2 grown sons, one girlfriend and one neice. They just loved it! The house is just so comfortable. Rosa is the true gem!! Both boys are fluent in spanish although Rosa is very capable with the English language. She came to the grocery store with us and shopped for all the ingredients for the breakfasts and lunches we requested. Her meals are fabulous, Rosa is always extremely accomodating and just so, so sweet. The proximity to the beach is fabulous, nice to be able to jump up to the house for whatever one might need. My husband and I actually discussed staying at Casa Price for 4 to 6 weeks in the winter months when he retires in 5 years. We love Fifth Avenue and all the restaurant choices, one better than the next. The Playacar gaited community is beautiful and very safe, nice for a morning walk. My only issue is with the pillows on the beds. They could be a lot softer. Other than that, I have nothing but rave reviews for this property. Thank you Rosa and Darryl for a wonderful 10 days. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by darryl boukedes

My mother built this home in 1993 and lived in it for about 7 years before returning to the US to be closer to her grandchildren. The home has stayed in the family and has been rented when family is not there.

Why they chose this property

Playa Del Carmen was known as a small fishing village in the 90s' and has become a popular place to vacation with all of the conveniences we're used to but still has a quaint feel to it because of the restrictions on big hotels or other high rise buildings. The neighborhood, known as Playacar -fase 1 is the only single family oceanfront neighborhood in Playa del Carmen. A short walk to many shops, restaurants, coffee shops, etc...but once entering the gates of the neighborhood, you are in a quiet, secluded neighborhood. Beach activities are available on the beach including parasailing and jet skiing and skydiving!
The home itself has a very authentic Mexican feel and is comfortable and charming.

What makes this property unique

Rosa! You will enjoy her kindness and hospitality. She is truly a gem!
