About this property
Playacar Family Townhome, Pool & Walk to Beach
Summary:
- Safe, gated Playacar townhome sleeping 8 with three bedrooms and a private patio.
- Walk 10 minutes to the beach, 5th Avenue restaurants, and downtown Playa.
- Communal pool surrounded by lush tropical grounds creates a peaceful retreat after exploring.
- Full kitchen, three bathrooms, workspace, and free parking make longer stays comfortable.
- Perfect for families wanting Mexican Caribbean adventures—cenotes, Mayan ruins, and snorkeling!
The Space:
Welcome to Your Playacar Home Base
This two-story townhome in guard-gated Playacar Phase 2 gives your group of up to 8 people room to breathe. The neighborhood feels safe enough for evening walks through jungle pathways, yet you're just 10 minutes on foot from the energy of 5th Avenue's restaurants, bars, and beach access.
The Space You'll Actually Use
Three bedrooms mean nobody's fighting over sleeping arrangements:
- Upstairs king bedroom with private bathroom and balcony access
- Upstairs bedroom with two full beds and ensuite bathroom
- Downstairs twin bedroom (perfect for kids)
The kitchen has everything you need if you want to make breakfast before heading out or prepare easy dinners after long beach days. A dining table seats six comfortably when your group wants to eat together instead of always going out.
The private back patio gets morning sun, grab coffee out here before the day starts. Upstairs terrace catches breezes in the afternoon. Both give you options to spread out when not everyone wants to do the same thing.
What Makes This Work for Families
- Full washer and dryer means you pack lighter and handle sandy beach towels easily. Three full bathrooms (two ensuite) mean less waiting around in the morning.
- Free parking at the property if you rent a car for exploring beyond Playa.
- The shared pool area stays quiet—it's surrounded by green space where kids can run around safely within the gated complex.
The Playacar Advantage
Security guards at the neighborhood entrance check everyone coming in. Residents walk their dogs here at night. The Hard Rock golf course sits across the street. Paseo del Carmen mall has groceries and restaurants within a few minutes' walk when you don't feel like going all the way to 5th Avenue.
You're positioned to do the big Riviera Maya experiences, Tulum ruins, cenote swimming, snorkeling trips, while staying somewhere that feels more like a neighborhood than a resort strip.
