I liked the staff and the location. I didn’t like not having hot water in the shower and I was very disappointed that they-rented the room next to me to a group of 5 guys( the occupancy is 2) who were partying all night and the rooms are connecting. So you could hear everything.

I’m a female solo traveler from the states and Juan Carlos made this trip the absolute best. He arranged private airport transportation, helped me with logistics and was a constant friendly face at the front desk. He went above and beyond to ensure I felt safe and gave the best time staying at Sofia by Bunik. The condos are very nice, in a great location and exactly what I was looking for and needed! I will definitely be back!

As with any experience, we made it work. For example, we were told when we arrived that water pressure is sometimes an issue, and indeed, one night there was zero water for a few hours. Staff worked to their best ability to resolve this as fast as they could. All emenities were within a short walk - (best breakfasts/lunches at Chou Chou’s one block south - best burgers/Aperol Spritz at Mu’s approx 2 blocks south) - but far enough to not hear noise from bars/clubs. Roof top pool was great with good views. Good value for the price.

What a nice place to stay in Playa del Carmen! You are still walking distance from the 5th so you can party if you want, but it is far enough away that it is quiet and peaceful at night. There are lots of restaurants and food stands, and a huge grocery store if you want to use the kitchen in your room and self cater. The room was quiet, clean and comfortable, the mattress was quite firm. Impeccably cleaned when we went out, they did a wonderful job every time.Our private balcony was nice to relax on in the evening. We really enjoyed the rooftop pool area, so nice to spend an afternoon up there just reading and cooling off in the pool. We are coming back for one night before flying home, hopefully we can book a room here again, it was such a nice stay. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone visiting Playa!
