Casa Tortuga is in a perfectly convenient location at the northern
end of the private gated community of Playacar (phase 2),
immediately adjacent to Playa del Carmen. Set in the heart of Villas
del Mayab, the only group of villas in Playacar built with ample
spacing between houses amidst a large shared garden area, Casa
Tortuga is just steps away from the large shared pool and palapa.
Situated along the 12th hole of the championship Playacar golf
course designed by Robert van Hagge on one side, Villas del Mayab
are also the closest group of villas within walking distance (5 min)
to the vibrant 5th Ave, the heart beat of Playa del Carmen.

A 3-5 min stroll along a direct stone path (accessed from the end of
the driveway), surrounded by tropical greenery will take you to the
nearest public beach with amenities - Fishermen's Beach Club, which
is Playa's quietest beach. The main shopping area, ferry to Cozumel
and loads of fantastic restaurants are 5-10 minutes walk north. In
the opposite direction, a 10-15 minute walk takes you to the Reef
Club, where Casa Tortuga guests can use the facilities of the resort
(beach chairs, pool and towel service), or for a daily fee, can
enjoy the all inclusive privileges. Opposite the Reef Club is the
entrance to the golf course.

Casa Tortuga is located next to the tennis court in the front and a
few steps from the hotel sized pool through a shared garden area in
the back. The tropical Aviary is a few houses away. The ample sized
palapa next to the pool is a perfect venue to host friendly
gatherings, weddings, or just hang out in the shade with your
morning java or evening cocktails! Combined with other privately
owned/managed villas within Villas del Mayab, larger groups can be
accommodated so you and your extended family or friends can be in
the same vicinity....please contact us for further information.

On the main level is a fully equipped kitchen, laundry, dining room,
open living room with domed ceiling, half bath, spacious bedroom
with two twin beds and ensuite full bath. This bedroom has access to
one of the outdoor patios. There are two large bedrooms upstairs
complete with king size beds and ensuite full bathrooms and wall
safes. The master bedroom includes a private balcony. There is a
queen size futon in the open loft area separating the two upstairs
bedrooms. Although not as private, it can accommodate 1-2 people.
All beds have european style light-weight feather duvets and
comfortable memory foam toppers....we believe your beds on vacation
should be comfy!

The villa has been extensively remodelled in 2007 to include new
tile flooring throughout, new bathrooms and kitchen with granite
counters and custom mahogany cabinetry. The upstairs ensuite(s)
include new tile, fixtures, granite and walk in showers. The main
floor ensuite has a bathtub /shower combination.

Maid service every second day, fresh bottled water and an American
property manager will ensure a smooth vacation. You will be met by
one of our Property Manager's staff on or shortly after your arrival
at the Villa. They will help orient you and get you up to speed with
the basic information required to kick start your holiday. As well,
there is a binder in the villa full of local information and tips of
places to go and things to do.

Well equipped grocery stores are readily accessible to meet any food
and drink requirements. Private transportation from the Cancun
Airport can be arranged on request for an additional fee, as well as
any other special requests you might have, such as crib
availability, or groceries upon arrival.
