Home in Puerto Aventuras
Review Submitted: May 15, 2009
Date of Stay: March 2009
We had some fairly specific requirements for a rental property in Puerto Aventuras. We wanted to have our 46 ft catamaran nearby, we wanted a unit big enough to handle our family with three young children, we preferred to be within in walking distance to restaurants and shops, and we wanted amenities such as a pool. This property fit the bill on all fronts. From the start, our experience was an excellent one. On the administrative front, the calendar on the website was accurate and up-to-date. The owner responded immediately to our email and was quick to respond to all of our needs. Nothing was considered too difficult and this was much appreciated during our stay. The onsite property manager was always available to answer questions and help work out logistical details. He helped us with everything from package deliveries, airport pick-up/drop-offs, and any maintenance required during our three month stay.
The unit itself is spacious and well decorated - giving one a feeling of living in a home rather than a hotel room/suite. The bedrooms, kitchen, and living space are large and airy. (In fact, we rarely required the air-conditioning even though it was available.) We had regular cleaning service and were treated wonderfully by the local Mexican people and others in neighboring units. The complex of Los Vientos has a community feel that would be difficult to match elsewhere.
Los Vientos is near many restaurants and shops which we frequented regularly. The people came to recognize us and were friendly from the start. The children loved watching the dolphins in the Dolphin Discovery program during our many meals in the village. There are many boating and fishing excursions available throughout the town as well. We enjoyed the beach and went on regular bike rides and walks around the community. The fact that Puerto Aventuras is a gated community was a bonus for us. We were also able to explore the sights in Tulum, Chichen-Itza, and Koba. Trips into Playa del Carmen were a regular occurence for us.
All in all, we loved our stay at this property in Puerto Aventuras. It was like home to us and we hope to go back again soon.
