Magical PENTHOUSE, truly a hidden gem! Private beach, gym, spa and restaurants!

The place is amazing and very beautiful. The beach is in your backyard literally. The condo itself is very spacious and perfect for family. I loved that I could clean my clothes and go to my own jacuzzi.

The condo was very beautiful, spacious and so conveniently located. The hotel concierge was very friendly in helping us get taxi service and the on site restaurants were delicious and a great price. Definitely will book this property again!

The Mareazul complex is absolutely beautiful. The grounds are immaculately maintained, and security is excellent. We felt completely safe letting our 12-year-old go back and forth between the pool and the condo, which was a huge plus. The oceanfront restaurant has great food (get the grilled shrimp!), the view from the condo is stunning, and the beach is truly unparalleled — the best beach I’ve ever been to.Jorge was a very responsive and thoughtful host who genuinely tried to help whenever issues came up. He even arranged for a high chair for our stay, which we really appreciated. There’s also a cooler in the condo, which was handy for bringing drinks down to the pool.That said, I’m sharing the following to inform future travelers, not to be overly harsh, as Jorge was a good host. The condo itself is in need of a refresh and appears not to have been personally checked in some time. The kitchen sink barely drains, the dishwasher handle is almost detached, and a bathroom door handle has fallen off. The couches are stained and ripped (though Jorge mentioned they are being replaced). The deck furniture has no cushions and the rattan is torn, making the deck unusable. The jacuzzi tub does not work. The hot water tank was off on arrival, several light bulbs were burned out, and the TV remotes had dead batteries. The washer and dryer barely functioned, which was difficult for a longer stay, and we had to use another unit’s machines.

Wonderful location. Amazing views!

I love the view, pool excellent place

We booked this property as it was listed with 3 bathrooms. One was completely used for storage, so we made the best of it. The grounds, pool, beach and staff were all great! We would stay again and any issue that came up, outside of the few small ants, was resolved. Thanks!

Mareazul is a beautiful complex on the ocean w/ an enormous & unique pool. This apartment is one of the closest to the beach w/ amazing views from the master bedroom, living room, and multiple balconies. I moved the bed across the room (it was on wheels) to see the ocean from bed. We used the jacuzzi on the upper balcony with an ocean view (note, it's a jacuzzi tub that you fill. Not a hot tub). We ate at the main restaurant where I had an amazing fruity drink (wish I remembered the name) and a really good shrimp dish. I walked the beach to the north in front of many other resorts just past Sandos Caracol where they had great 40 60 min beach massages. I believe the beach is public so they can't stop you from you right near water. I stayed a Caracol last year so I knew about the massages. I waded to get by some eroded parts, but I was on a mission.We took excursions and the operators picked us up at the resort easily. We also walked into Playa Del Carmen before dark. We felt totally safe walking in daylight, but did cab back. I recommend La Cueva del Chango and 38th Street in general.The hosts were very helpful & had maintenance come quickly for any issues. They replaced the bedrm HVAC minisplit next day! Ignore any negative reviews unless you are extremely high maintenance & have the budget to pay 5x what this place costs. Salt air is very hard on all metal and corodes everything. This is a great value. You won’t find better for the price!

We had a wonderful time at Jorge’s beautiful condo. The condo was comfortable and clean, the pool and beach were absolutely gorgeous, and we were 10 minutes by car to all of the restaurants and outdoor community in Pmaya del Carmen. We have traveled many times with our large family and all of our kids voted this as the best place we have ever amazing tacos check out Taquerios Che

We stayed at Jorge’s apartment for 2 nights. Myself, my boyfriend, my teen daughter, and my boyfriend’s mom. There was plenty of room for all of us! Jorge was very communicative and helpful. The apartment is located in a quiet building inside of a gated community. Hint to guests: You will go through two gates - main gate and then one specific to the resorts within the main gate. Security will need the name of the property (Mareazul) and apartment number. They will ask you each time you go in and sometimes when leaving. We had a rental car and it was super easy going in and out and parking was ample within the property. There are beach towels and chairs provided. The beach does have lounge chairs for free as well. The pool and beach were FABULOUS! The food at the restaurant closer to the beach was better than the one by the pool. We made good use of the hammocks located in the middle of the pool as well.We were there in mid-April and the weather was PERFECTION! We slept with the sliding doors open (screen doors shut) and could hear the ocean! No bugs, no humidity, no crazy noise. It was lovely!Since we had a car, I can’t speak to whether taxi’s come into the property (I assume they do). But we were a short ride to the really cute part of Fifth Avenue. We also stopped at a small spot not far from the property called La Bendeción de Dios. Little corner stall with fresh tacos and other food. We ate and stuffed ourselves - 4 ppl for USD 31!Would def come stay again!

Location was excellent and property was beautiful and well cared for. Condo was not as clean as I’d expect, many things came out of the cabinets feeling and looking dirty in the kitchen. In fact the cupboards could all have been cleaned out. The washing machine leaked. All three blenders were inoperable as were two coffee pots. The oven was also inoperable. A small convection Ninja oven was available and worked as I assume it was there to replace the one in the wall that was broken. Cooking stove top did not have instructions and took more than a moment to figure out. The condo did not come with instructions for anything like what services were available or where to take the trash. Concierge was responsive and we did get a new coffee pot and blender. However, the washer still leaked and when I asked for a second five gallon jug of water - the concierge was not responsive. Was not clear if water was supposed to be provided to us or if it was our responsibility as the place again had no instructions. Mattresses are FIRM. Also there were no additional bed linens or pillows provided. This sounds like a terrible review. Our stay was not terrible. These were minor inconveniences. However where things could improve is full instructions - something to welcome you to the condo and the community. Restaurants on the property provided delicious fresh food. We would stay on the property again. The condo could use a little love.

We had an amazing time in this apartment. It has the best view possible, two very good restaurants on site and the apartment was really well kept.We really want to go back ASAP!We really appreciate the communication with Jorge easy and straightforward, very attentive.100% recommended

Ideal settings for a family with kids of all ages. Gigantic pool and surrounding grounds are fantastic for youngsters. Adults can enjoy a beautiful beach with all water activities. The two restaurants on site are very good with a good diversity of dishes. We all had a blast.

This VRBO is in a very safe, clean, and inclusive condo complex. The unit was very clean and spacious. The food at both restaurants was not expected and a huge surprise. Best part, the food was excellent. Our host was responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend this VRBO.

The view was amazing, and the home is very practical for a family of four with two children. This is a perfect place for relaxation (spa was incredible), and the spa will do room services by reservation. The host was very easy to work with and very accommodating. We will be back.

Very nice, plenty of room. Nice resort. Excellent security services.

Loved the pool, restaurants, ocean, views... The condo needs to be upgraded. They need to be running dehumidifiers to remove the smells. The roof hot tub is in poor condition.

The Good was the location, size and cleanliness of the property. Amazing value !!!! The Bad were 1- the kitchen faucet was clogged for a few days since the plumbers took over 48 hrs to show up. 2 - The sofa in the living room was falling apart to the point that we could not sit on it. 3 - Various knobs to bathroom doors were missing. Conclusion: The property is amazing but it needs a bit of TLC.
