Fully staffed beachfront villas with chef, butler & concierge — from gated Playacar estates to Quinta Avenida penthouses on Mexico’s Caribbean coast
Beachfront Caribbean estates with full staff — from intimate retreats to grand villas for groups and celebrations
Gated beachfront estates, boutique neighborhoods & jungle retreats — each area offers a different pace and setting
Playa del Carmen sits in the heart of the Riviera Maya, with white-sand Caribbean beaches, Quinta Avenida’s restaurants and nightlife, and easy access to cenotes, Mayan ruins, and eco-parks. A fully staffed villa gives you the best of both worlds — the energy of downtown Playa within walking distance, and the privacy of your own beachfront estate with a chef preparing every meal.
Villa Experience has curated luxury villa rentals in Playa del Carmen since 2006 — from gated Playacar estates on one of Mexico’s best beaches to secluded retreats in Playa del Secreto. Every property is personally vetted, every stay includes private chef, butler, and concierge, and our local team arranges Xcaret and Xel-Há excursions, cenote tours, catamaran trips to Cozumel, and reservations at the best restaurants on Quinta Avenida.
The best time to visit Playa del Carmen is from December through April, when temperatures average 80–87°F (27–31°C) with low humidity, clear skies, and warm Caribbean water. This is peak season, so book early. May and November are excellent shoulder months with warm weather, fewer crowds, and lower villa rates. The rainy season runs from June through October with brief afternoon showers that rarely last more than an hour. Sargassum (seaweed) can affect some beaches from May through September, though Playacar and Playa del Secreto tend to be less impacted, and many properties clean their beaches daily.
Playacar Phase 1 is Playa del Carmen’s most exclusive area — a gated beachfront community with large estate villas, manicured gardens, and direct access to one of the Riviera Maya’s best beaches. It’s perfect for families and groups wanting privacy with Quinta Avenida just minutes away. Playacar Phase 2 is a larger gated community with golf, restaurants, and more variety in villa sizes. Playa del Secreto, 15 minutes north, is a quiet, secluded stretch of beach ideal for travelers wanting total privacy. Downtown villas and penthouses are best for guests who want walkable access to Quinta Avenida’s restaurants, bars, and beach clubs.
Every Playa del Carmen villa booked through Villa Experience includes a private chef or cook (2–3 meals per day, groceries at cost), daily housekeeping, and a dedicated concierge. Many villas also include a butler, pool attendant, and security. Your concierge handles restaurant reservations on Quinta Avenida, Xcaret and Xel-Há eco-park tickets, cenote tours, snorkeling and diving at Cozumel and the Mesoamerican Reef, catamaran charters, Chichén Itzá and Tulum ruins day trips, and in-villa spa treatments. Grocery provisioning before your arrival is available on request.
Yes — Playa del Carmen is one of the Riviera Maya’s most family-friendly destinations. We offer villas from 3 to 16+ bedrooms that accommodate families, multigenerational groups, and celebrations. Playacar Phase 1 is especially popular with families for its gated security, calm beach, and walkable distance to shops and restaurants. Kids love nearby eco-parks (Xcaret, Xel-Há, Xplor), snorkeling at Akumal with sea turtles, and cenote swimming. Your concierge arranges family excursions, babysitting, and kid-friendly dining reservations.
Absolutely. Playa del Carmen is one of Mexico’s top destination-wedding locations. We offer beachfront estates in Playacar and Playa del Secreto with terraces, gardens, and capacities from 20 to 100+ guests. Your concierge coordinates with local wedding planners, caterers, florists, DJs, and photographers. We handle everything from welcome parties and rehearsal dinners to the ceremony and reception. Some of our villas, like Playacar Vista Estate (42 guests, 16 bedrooms), are specifically designed for large celebrations.

Share your dates, group size, preferred area (Playacar Phase 1, Playacar Phase 2, Playa del Secreto, downtown, etc.), and any special requests. We’ll send a curated shortlist within 24 hours. A 50% deposit secures your villa, with the balance due 60 days before arrival. Cancun International Airport (CUN) is just 45–55 minutes from most Playa del Carmen villas, and your concierge arranges private airport transfers in a luxury SUV or van.

Verified 5-star reviews from guests who booked luxury villa stays in Playa del Carmen
Posted on Alyssa GustafsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 100000/10! Where to even begin! Our stay at Las Villas for my husband's 40th birthday was perfect from start to finish. All 15 of us had a perfect stay. The rooms are extremely well cleaned, decorated, and taken care of. The pool and views are extremely Instagrammable!! The food was delicious, fresh, and all allergies/accommodations were followed. Most importantly, the staff is INCREDIBLE. They were so sweet and attentive. Jose Luis and Damian were the best bartenders. The concierge, Alexa, helped us schedule transportation, dinner reservations, a Mariachi band, a birthday cake, and more. We wouldn't have changed a thing and hope to be back. Thank you, Las Villas!!Posted on Sharon LarkinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Villa Experience did an amazing job with our rental in Puerto Vallarta!

Villa Experience was super easy to communicate and work with! Albriet was who i spoke too and she went out of her way to make the transaction smooth. We went to villa divina and had every little detail squared away with the help of villa experience. All of our questions and concerns were taken care of and the price we were given is the exact price we paid. No surprise bills at the end. The villa was beautiful and exceeded our expectations.Posted on Angie KlineTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. **An Absolutely Extraordinary Experience - 5 Stars!** Where do I even begin?

We will never forget this experience, and we cannot wait to return. **Highest possible recommendation - this place is pure magic!**Posted on Christine CorlettTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our stay at Casa Nahui was absolutely unbelievable! There were five of us ladies celebrating our birthdays, and the only downside was having to leave. Accommodations: The house was beautiful with plenty of space for a large group. The layout of the house provided enough room for everyone to come together and also have some alone time when needed. The only minor issue was that the beds were quite hard; a mattress topper would have been great. Other than that, everything was perfection. Staff: I cannot say enough about the wonderful staff. From the house managers, butler, chefs, housekeepers, to the concierges and drivers, everyone was incredibly attentive, kind, and simply the sweetest group. We were sad to leave them but look forward to seeing them again when we return. Overall, Casa Nahui exceeded our expectations and made our birthday celebration truly special. A highly recommended stay!Posted on Ruben EstevezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot adequately express how delightful our stay was at Las Villas!

Disfrutamos mucho la casa, un servicio inmejorable y una comida de estrella Michellin, Pani el Chef es increíble al igual q Enrique, Caro y July q hicieron nuestra estancia muy agradable, felicidades a todo el staffPosted on A. AdamsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Like so many of the previous reviews, I cannot rave enough about Casa Peregrina and the amazing time that we had as 5 families with 10 adults and 10 children! Our vacation took place at the end of June which is part of the rainy and humid season but the house was comfortable with rooms having split unit ACs and the cool breeze of the water made hanging outside by the pool very enjoyable. The house exceeded our expectations as far as size and gathering places. The outdoor palapa was perfect to hang out and relax as a group. The amazing view of Banderas Bay was constantly changing with the sunsets, storms, and blue bird days. Albriet and Rocio at Villa Experience were incredibly communicative in the booking process and Albriet answered what felt like a million questions with so much patience and clarity. We loved our concierge Miguel and our bar men, Alex and Osvaldo. Our behind the scenes staff of the kitchen, Edwin, Oscar and Omar made the most delicious food and allowed us to truly enjoy a vacation without cooking and cleaning and grocery shopping. Cooking for such a large group is no easy feat but every meal was fresh and beautifully plated and the salsas…our group is still dreaming of all the fresh salsa and guacamole. We spent 7 nights in paradise and each dinner was a different table setting which we all loved. And of course, our cheerful cleaning ladies, Lizz and Mari, were always so pleasant and did the best job tidying up our rooms. Our children loved the small touches such as the perfect placement of stuffed animals in a perfectly made bed. The adults loved the fresh flowers in the bathroom. The service from beginning to end was top notch and truly bespoke. I cannot recommend Casa Peregrina enough and we were truly so sad to leave because we made the best memories.Load more
