About this property

Villa Alborada 3BD Spacious, Beach Front Villa Playacar Fase 1 Gated Community

Ideally located on the beach in Playacar Phase 1, five minutes from the beginning of 5th avenue, this house offers spectacular views of the Turquoise water. It has a swimming pool and a cold water jacuzzi. Playa del Carmen, long an international hub, is replete with world-class restaurants, nightlife and shopping. Playa is also a great jumping off point for exploring all the Yucatan has to offer. Whether you travel further afield or blissfully lounge on the beach, it’s all good. At the end of the day, at the end of the road

Beautiful and as advertised!!

Location is perfect with direct beach access and no parking allowed in front of the property. Claudia was terrific as well as all her of staff that assisted throughout our stay. Highly recommend the chef service!!! We had an amazing meal and had plenty of left overs for a reasonable price. Should we ever come back to this area, we would definitely stay here again!

Casa Albadora is Amazing

Amazing house and incredible chef service. The view is spectacular and the beach is right across the street. We stayed for 4 days and our 4 kids loved it. We will definitely return to this property. Anything you need Claudia will arrange it for you including transportation from the airport. Can't say enough good things about this house and definitely get the Chef for as many meals as he is available.

It was a nice vacation, excellent location , clean . When we mentioned the dishes were a little greasy , immediately the house maid cleaned all of them. Claudia was the best. 5th Ave a 15-20 min walk , but we went there almost daily .

Great Location Great Service

The property manager and staff were GREAT! Very attentive and helpful. We had the chef come in and prepare 2 fantastic meals! The home had a perfect location just off the beach with beach views and a private pool. The home, the kitchen, could use some updating. Overall a great value and experience.

Family favorite in Playa del Carmen

My two daughters and their families and I loved our week at Villa Alborada. The house layout on one level was perfect for our 4-76 years age spread. Being separated from the beach by an open sandy lot gave us gorgeous views without being right by the people on the beach when we were in our lovely pool. Three big bedrooms with two queen beds and en suite bathrooms suited our group, as did the big open-plan living area. We ate all our meals on the big covered patio, looking out over the pool to the ocean. Our contact, Hortencia, was so accommodating and helpful we felt we had a friend when we needed anything. Definitely recommend Villa Alborada with 5 stars.

Beautiful, spacious villa

Huge house, with 4 very large bedrooms that all had ensuite bathrooms. The outdoor bathroom was very convenient. The pool is huge. We never even sat on the couch or in the living room - we were outside at the table or in the kitchen all 4 days. The concierge, Osmi, was very quick to respond to everything. I highly recommend renting bikes through Osmi - they're $11/day and were very convenient for getting out of the neighborhood into the city. The house has a great view of sunrise, is steps from the beach, and is close to beautiful ruins.

I don’t write reviews…

This was the best vacation we’ve ever had!! This is a 1 level home with 3 bedrooms , 3 full bathrooms 2 half bathrooms (1 is outside in the pool area) there is a private roped off section of the beach right in front. The property is gorgeous! It’s a 10 minute walk to the ferry’s to Cozumel. Making it a fantastic location overall. We were treated like royalty. The manager Claudia is very helpful and accommodating! She was able to fix my booking error with no issues and she coordinated most of our trip. Chef Anuar’s meals are culinary perfection! I have pre diabetes’ finding food I can eat is challenging at times. Chef Anuar was able to make low sugar subtitles that were incredibly delicious! He also made my son’s birthday lunch which made it such an extra special day. All of the staff is fantastic from the security to the gardener. They are kind and helpful. A security guard helped us order delivery one night(which absolutely not in his job description) I want to thank Hortencia for keep our fridge full, and Mara who kept our casa clean, tidy, and smelling fantastic. And our driver Orlando! He waited to make sure my friend made it in the airport and kept an eye on her flight. Thank you so very much Claudia! We truly loved our vacation and will be back soon, If you’ll have us

Not for everyone

We rented Villa Alborada during the second week in December, my wife and I and two grown daughters—one, with her husband and four-year old in tow. We loved the ever-changing ocean vistas and waking up, and dozing off, to the smell and sound of surf. But after four days, our youngest and her family decided to leave. This is not a place for small children, especially when you’re not fluent in Spanish—as English fluency among Playacar management, taxi drivers and the surrounding community is strikingly rare. Villa Alborada has many positives—among them, the view, the quiet, the security, the large rooms, the unit’s tidiness, not to mention ambient sunlight from the street-level wall of Gulf-facing windows. Yet each of these attributes had its downside. It is a mile and a half to the tourist district. The view is of a small beachfront access across the street. And where you can see out, passersby can see in. Security is omnipresent (probably for good reason). No dishwasher. No chairs in 2 bedrooms. Unheated pool. After hard rains, the unit smelled bad, possibly from septic gas. To preserve the septic system, bathroom wastepaper goes in a basket rather than being flushed. Our only meeting with the host featured dramatic warnings of penalties should we exceed our electricity allotment. When she said she would enter our unit 15 minutes before our leaving it, I refused. That said, the sun and surf were lovely.

Beautiful Villa

We had a fantastic stay at villa Alborada recently - the location is excellent due to the easy access to the beach, privacy and quiet as it is located at the southern end of Playacar, and it is only a 15-min walk to town. The villa itself provides open views to the beach, has a lovely pool, an open covered patio, and is located in a very nice neighborhood. The interior is spacious, well thought out, and provides space and privacy with three en-suite bedrooms and two additional half-bathrooms. We would stay here again.

Girls Trip 2022

The property was just as it was listed, three bedrooms with an en-suite and 6 beds. This was perfect, we all had our own beds. Claudia the manager was very nice and just a text or phone call away. She gave good advice on places to visit and eat. The Wi-Fi was a little sketchy but we just unplugged it and plugged it back in and we were good to go. We will definitely rent this place again.

We had such a wonderful time!! We stayed at a resort for the beginning of our stay and finished off here for the remainder of the time! We had a private chef come on out last night that Claudia scheduled and it was amazing! Great location close to downtown playa and great communication for help when we needed it. Even the staff on the property helped us get beer when we ran out! Definitely would come back!
