Reviews and listing is accurate
Noise: The listing does mention there will be noise due to location and many reviews mentioned the club next door. I was expecting noise when booked and was pleasantly surprised it wasn’t that bad. Queen bed room is the noisiest and the double bed room is more quiet. I was able to sleep easily in the double bed room and white noise played on my phone helped me sleep in the queen room. Location: Perfect for beach access and right off of fifth ave. The ferry is super close as is the ADO bus station. Loved the location. Water: The water shut off several times during our stay. We were unable to use the toilet or shower during these times which is inconvenient when covered in sand/sunblock. I messaged the concierge but didn’t get much help or explanation from her as to why the water was shut off. We did stay during a tropical storm but no other spots had water issues in the area. Shower: Low water pressure and it takes a long time to warm up so either be patient or be ready for cold showers. Neighbor: There is a man that lives next door. He constantly moaned, coughed, and called out for help at all hours of the day/night. It is loud and woke us up several times when staying in the queen bedroom (closest to his unit). On the first night we approached him asking if he needed help in which he replied no and tried to enter our unit. He seems harmless but be wary. We were a group of girls and felt mostly safe other than that initial interaction.

Location, and attentiveness 5 stars!
My kids (ages 5 & 8) enjoyed a fabulous vacation in Playa and the location of this apartment is prime. I gave the location 4/5 stars, only because there are beach clubs within 45 feet that play loud music late into the night/early morning. Most days I was so tired from exploring the beautiful beaches, shops, and taking the ferry to Cozumel to even wake up to it, and luckily my kids slept right through it, but I would advise bringing some ear plugs. I always travel with sound machines, and the music booming could be heard over those - so I wished I had ear plugs. Otherwise, the place is exactly as pictured, it’s safe with multiple locks, the property manager Gladys was incredible. She met us at arrival and gave us a tour, was immediately accessible when an issue with the air conditioner came up (and got the handyman there within 20 mins), and helped us book the BEST tours. Me and the kids had the time of our lives in Playa. Highly recommend.

Great Beach Spot!
This was perfect for what we wanted, a place on the beach! Steps from the beach, and close to all the shops and restaurants. It's not fancy but met our needs nicely. There are several beach clubs close by and they do play loud music late into the night, so if that will bother you it may not be the best choice but for us it turned into white noise pretty quickly.

Great place right on the beach. Not fancy but comfortable and fully equipped, which is exactly what a beach place should be. Noemi was extremely helpful when I had trouble following basic instructions about check-in. Would definitely stay here again.

Best location in playa del Carmon.
People at the property were friendly and helpful. Only suggestion you need a parking permit. Got a parking ticket parked in front of the condo. Don’t get a parking ticket!! Loved the place with or with out a parking permit.
