“Great time great location” The unit was the perfect location for us on the ground floor steps awat from the pools. With an active 8yr old it's many trips back and forth to the room so this was perfect. The owner was very pleasant to deal with. She responds very promptly. It was just what we needed. Will def use this service in the future. And to top it off she had our deposit refunded same day we departed.

“Wonderful time Alex was a pleasure to work with!” Had a great time and any issues we had Alex was on top of everything! We LOVED the beach horse back riding excursion that was offered thru the resort. Our son (3 years old) loved VIP pool the best! Our mattress was super firm and the resort staff worked so hard to resolve our issue. Which was refreshing because lets be honest when you go on vacation issues can arise and it was so refreshing to have a resort staff that really tried to help fix it!

“Wonderful time in Playa Dorada” We stayed in Playa Dorada for the month of March 2014 and we really enjoyed it. I have travel a lot and stayed in many different hotel and condos, but this was the best. What you see on the internet, is the absolute truth. Cindy is a very honest and caring owner. I did have a couple minor issues during my stay, but they were quickly handle after I contacted Cindy. The condo is fantastic with very nice and comfortable furnitures and TVs, and the kitchen is ultra modern. We also really appreciated the outdoor BBQ (a very big and nice BBQ). The San Marino complexe is very nice and secure. The swimming pool is big and clean and the beach is only a five minutes walk from the condo, and at the beach you have very nice chairs and umbrellas. The staff at San Marino is excellent, the laundry service is great and not expensive. The condo is only ten minutes to Puerto Plata by taxi where you have the Las Sirenas store which is just like a WalMart (this is where we when for grocery shopping) they also have a Domino's Pizza. I visited the old San Felipe Fort, I went to the top of the mountain in the teleferic and had a really great time visiting many places around Puerto Plata. The only thing missing as far as I am concern, is something like a seven eleven in the plaza in the front of the condo. They have many things, but not your basic like bread, cold meat, butter and eggs. Beside that, they have many things. With all the condos being built around Playa Dorada, maybe someone will invest in a seven eleven or something like that. Beside that, everything was excellent, and God willing, I will go back next year.

“Perfect For a Family. Best Owner Hospitality! Great for Cooking” Newly renovated. We have 3 teenagers who need their own space. Everyone had their own beds and we had the entire penthouse suite to ourselves! Kitchen was beautiful and functional. Everything you need. Since it's a penthouse there is a large balcony facing out (with trees). Every day we ate all our meals, read books and at night played games out there. Weather is nice even in the evening or in the rain. Never used the inside table for eating. Since the bathrooms' sink separate; it's multi-user without waiting. This property was quiet and safe. We travel a lot and felt a lot more safe here than Mexico; travelling with teens... Cindy was the best owner I have ever encountered and we rent often. With Wi-Fi at the center of the complex, free messaging worked great. She provided so much information and help. Since she speaks 2 languages, she would call the front desk and arrange anything. I have a bad medical condition and since our King bed was hurting bad, she had a bed topper shipped immediately at her expense! So now vacationers have 2 choices. Since 1/2 her family is local, she arranged many trustworthy excursions from her U.S. home. She arranged a great driver at reasonable cost in a superbly clean Honda van (we are too big for a car). Believe me, after a few other taxi rides, he's a safer driver and spoke decent English for local info. The beach was pristine and not too busy. We walked a long way on both sides and this is the most protected from winds, less busy and with an open restaurant/ bar right there. Also since many locals own in this resort, not too many venders bother this area! Are the pictures accurate? No. It's actually nicer than it shows. Really! Proximity to everything is nice. Short taxi rides to a Walmart type supermarket and a lot of attractions. Taxis at the gate hose you. Use Cindy or recommendations from other owners in the resort for transport. Cindy also gave us a valuable restaurant list. She is very organized. Great 14 day vacation!

“Just magical” This home was amazing very clean and the home owners Kristi and Mario very nice and get back to you really fast with any question you have. The kitchen and the rest of the house has everything thing you need to enjoy your vacations. I really enjoyed my stay here and would recommend it to anyone.

“Sandos Playacar is Amazing!” My family - me, my husband and two kids - just returned from an amazing week at the Sandos Playacar in Playa Del Carmen. We had such a fantastic time and LOVED Sandos. Everything was great - the food, the staff, the facilities, the entertainment and more! Sandos is a truly beautiful resort - the hacienda was spacious, clean and had all the amenities we needed. The food at the al a carte restaurants was especially good, although we enjoyed the buffet breakfasts very much. The staff bent over backwards to help us with everything. The beach section was beautiful with plenty of comfortable lounge chairs, beds and hammocks to relax in. A short walk down the beach-2 minutes- brought us to a snorkeling area that was filled with tropical fish. The evening entertainment was top notch! All of our plans were booked through Georgette Flamm who provided detailed information and assistance every step of the way. She provided tons of info about the rooms and the resort, reserved transportation from the airport and gave us other valuable tips about our visit to Sandos. She responded to all of my questions immediately - I really was impressed how easy she made it! I would absolutely recommend Georgette Flamm and Sandos to anyone!!

“Awesome Cabin!!” My husband and I rented this property for the July 4th weekend. His sister and her husband traveled with us. At first we thought we were going to the end of the Earth, but after finding the cabin we were all very pleased. It was very nice! Clean, spacious, and private. Giving each couple their own bedroom and bathroom. Best of all, Liz, is an amazing hostess, checking in with us daily to be sure everything was perfect. I would highly recommend this cabin for a nice relaxing weekend.

“Amazing vacation” The house was perfect. Everything was great. House looks just like the pictures. George was a great host. Very nice and made it feel like a second home. Cant wait to go back.

“Exceptional Vacation Home” We just returned from spending a week at this fabulous home. The home, views and privacy are truly amazing! As pictured, this home sits on a ridge in the middle of a beautiful desert landscape with saguaro cactus and other native plants. It is in a gated community consisting of gorgeous million dollar homes. This home was very clean and the outside well maintained. Although the house is single level, there are several steps to the front door, as well as down to the pool. Therefore, if someone has mobility issues, you may want to take that into consideration. As you can see from the pictures, the inside of the home is spacious and nicely decorated. The beds, chairs and couches are very comfortable. I am tall and thoroughly enjoyed the Jacuzzi tub in the master bathroom. The master shower also has dual heads and a built-in bench which were also nice. Jason was extremely easy to work with and notified us ahead of time when the landscaper and pool man were to visit for normal maintenance/cleaning. The home’s private pool is not heated, but does have a nice bench for sitting along one of the sides. If you want a heated pool, you can go down to the The Lodge at Ventana Canyon and enjoy their pool, since Jason kindly provides free guest memberships. We were there during a monsoon storm, as well as a lighting storm. We had spectacular views from the decks and patios. We enjoyed this home so much we plan to return.

“Great Vacation Home” We love to stay at the home with our family very clean place it has a private pool, recreation area for kids and my kids loved it. We will love to stay this home again we recommend 100%
