Playa 38 in Playa del Carmen

What our guests say

“Wonderful stay. Great location out of the mix but an easy enough walk/taxi into town. The bed is wonderful, hot shower, and equipped kitchen. The team is wonderfully accommodating and I would definitely stay here again.”

Maegan · Airbnb, February 2026

“Rudy proved to be more than just a host; he acted as a guide and quickly became a friend during our stay. … We cannot endorse Rudy's properties strongly enough.”

Jay · Google

“The suite was clean, cute, and had a homey feel, and the complex itself was quiet and welcoming. Location was great—minutes from malls, the beach, the ADO terminal, restaurants, markets, and street food, yet tucked into a peaceful pocket of Centro Playa.”

Marie · Booking.com, October 2026

“This was by far one of the BEST stays I have had. The location was ideal and perfect blend of life and peace. … Not only was the condo perfect, but Rudy and his staff included so many tips to help me get to the location and some of those tips were financial recommendations that saved me a lot of money. I strongly recommend booking this stay and being hosted by Rudy and Rolando.”

Mayalun rooftop pool at sunset, Playa del Carmen

Muy tranquilo

There is a word that keeps coming up across Mexico. You hear it in the market and on the beach. You hear it from locals who have found something most travellers spend their whole trip searching for. Muy tranquilo means calm, peaceful, quiet, and relaxed. I chose these properties because they put you in that Mexico. The beaches are good. The people are better.
