About this property

Charming authentic Mexico-Walk to beach & 5th Ave!

Summary:
Get in touch with your inner bohemian at this stylish, colorful, artsy condo!
- This condo celebrates the spirit of this special Caribbean jewel, Playa del Carmen
- Great rooftop deck w/lovely breezes & partial ocean views less than a block to beach
- 1 block to the famous 5th Ave pedestrian zone w/restaurants, shops, bars & more!
- Three balconies to relax & breathe in the surroundings & tropical vegetation
- Decked out with beautiful traditional Mexican furnishings & a warm atmosphere.

The Space:
Don’t settle for a cold, “could be anywhere” condo. Come to Las Flores Girasol for a place with personality!

Warm colors, traditional terra cotta, vibrant textiles, and dark carved wood define the space. This 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo is the perfect place to call home during your Mexican escape.

Las Flores Girasol’s location couldn’t be better: you’re just a half-block to the beach with its soft white sands and turquoise waters, and a block from “la Quinta,” Playa’s pedestrian street with the best bars, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment.

You’re so close to the action, but the condo’s soundproof windows ensure you’ll have plenty of peace and quiet.

Master bedroom boasts a king-sized bed and en-suite bathroom, and the 2ndbedroom has 2 twin beds which can be combined to make a king. A second full bathroom, living/dining area (with a sleeper futon) and well-equipped kitchen complete the space. Whether you’re a family, two couples, or a group of friends, this condo has the flexibility you need.

When in Playa, it’s all about the outdoor spaces. So go ahead, enjoy a coffee or a tropical drink on one of Las Flores Girasol’s three balconies, and head up to the community’s rooftop deck for sweeping views and warm ocean breezes.

All the essentials for a carefree vaca:. Wifi & cable, linens, bath and beach towels. Settle in and get ready for some fun. We also provide a few essentials to make you feel more at home when you arrive: drinking water, soap, shampoo, and toilet paper. Please note that these will not be refilled during your stay.

Guest Access:
You’ll enjoy full, exclusive access to the condo- nuestra casa es tu casa!

You’ll also have access to the community’s rooftop deck with loungers and tables. Be sure to spend some time up there and enjoy the sun and ocean views.

The Neighborhood:
Everything you need is within walking distance, including the gorgeous beach and trendy 5th Avenue. Plenty of amazing restaurants- here are some of our favorites near the condo:

· Imprevist
· Plank
· Pepper

Want an adventure at sea? 5-star scuba diving center right across the street. Ready to party? Playa’s lively nightlife scene is the perfect counterpart to the chill time you spend at the beach.

And of course, you’ve got an ideal home base to explore the rest of the Riviera Maya & all its wonders: Mayan archaeological sites, eco-parks, tropical forests, cenotes, pristine beaches...

Great Place, once located
This charming apartment is well located, just as described in the listing. A hint for travelers, the building name is "Flores de ..." and "Girasol" is the name of the apartment. The building name is near impossible to see from street level. This is important because neither Google or Apple Maps accurately located the location. I walked or drive in front of the building 4-6 times before locating the building. Communications was a bit confusing as the host was Angel, the rep for securing payment and helping with directions was from a group called "Stella". This may be a Mexico-wide complication, but the payment process required a verification process beyond VRBO KYC validation. (Mayhaps I failed to press a save button or something?) I thought I paid up front; but, had to pay during my long arrival/check-in process via a WhatApp call. I had assume and trust that I was not paying twice before I could get arrival instructions. The last support element that pushed my overall review to a 4, was that little effort was made to check for my passport. The next guest found it where I asked the host to have the cleaner look, the laundry. The guest was very gracious about my knock on the door. They decided to wait to see if I would return looking for it. As a VRBO host, I would have pursued looking for a passport with due urgency. In summary, great place and location. Hosting had a very polite but corporate feel.

Even nicer than I expected.
Love the size and layout of the condo. The beds were very good and provided an excellent night of sleep. Great located and tons of great restaurants everywhere. The only drawback is the beach is starting to get thin in certain areas near by.
