Playa del Carmen, Mexico, has long been celebrated for its awe-inspiring beaches, fine-dining restaurants, and splendid views. With room for eight people, Mayakoba 1 is a vast, ground-floor villa - the ideal base to soak up all of this and more.

Located in the gorgeous resort of Playa del Carmen on Mexico’s magnificent Caribbean coastline, there is more to do here than can fit in a single vacation. Walk through the pretty palm tree-lined 5th Avenue packed with shops, bars and restaurants. Keen scuba divers should jet off to the Meso-American Barrier Reef, the second-longest barrier reef in the world, to spot incredible sea life. If that sounds like too much exertion, sit back and enjoy the perfect white sand of some of the local beaches. Parque Fundadores, at the end of 5th Avenue, is probably the easiest to reach with its iconic Playa del Carmen arch.

Mayakoba 1 is a sumptuous space for small groups to spend time together in the large open areas or seek peace and quiet in secluded spots. The ample open-plan living space has a classic and clean design with white furnishings and dark wooden furniture. An impeccable, fully equipped kitchen means you have everything you need right at home to rustle up Mexican masterpieces - try fish tacos with locally caught seafood with a zingy margarita to accompany. For restful nights, the master bedroom has a heavenly king-size bed, luxe ensuite bathroom and handy walk-in closet. The second bedroom has a deluxe king-sized bed, an ensuite bathroom and an outdoor shower. The third bedroom has room for up to four guests with two lovely twin trundle beds - great for younger members of your party.

With a beautiful outdoor terrace complete with an inviting swimming pool, this villa is the perfect place to indulge in this tropical oasis. The well-curated design and spacious living areas make Mayakoba 1 a special spot from which to enjoy this outstanding stretch of coastline.
