This was our second year in a row my family spent our Holiday in Playa at Xaman Ha and in Dawn and Glenn's condo. I could write exactly the same thing as I did last year so please reference that review as well . So to add something new. Can't stress enough how functional and well appointed this condo is. It seems like anything we might need was already anticipated and was available. Kitchen supplies, fresh water cooler, fast wi-fi ,tvs,computer with a printer, information,games,books,beach supplies, and balcony space with excellent view. If you are exploring Playa or just spending the day at the condo you have everything you need. It cannot be overstated what a convenient location Xaman Ha is located . If you want to stay at a great place on the beach and be within walking distance to all that is fun on 5th and 10th , I'm pretty sure you couldn't rent a condo closer. Finally , it seems like almost everyone we told from home that we were coming to Playa said something like " be careful" or " heard it wasn't safe". This is not true. Xaman Ha is located in a gated subdivision and has 24hr security patrolling the grounds. Playa del Carmen in the tourist area is a family place and totally safe. When you go out to dinner you will notice that almost every table is filled with families from all over the globe. We had our entire side of the family down there in several condos and no one had any sort of experience where they felt unsafe. We were treated nothing but friendly and graciously by the locals.
