    disorganized registration

    Registration was disorganized, with our villa not being available as booked. The infinity pool lacked cleanliness, and it closed early at 7:30 p.m., limiting our use. The parking lot felt dark and unmonitored at night, raising some concerns about safety.

    Fantastic and spotlessly clean place, exceptional view of the ocean. Exceptionally comfortable bed and stunning and perfect location down by Playa Carmen where there are tons of excellent restaurants to try. Also - very close to a hill overlooking that whole coast line from playa Carmen down to mal Pais, waterfalls, and bars. Delicious breakfast, modern villa. A laptop-compatible safe, a sofa bed, and coffee/tea makers - very useful.

    I came here for 1 night and had a perfect 10/10 stay. The breakfast selection was delicious with food from their own garden. The rooms were brand-new and beautifully decorated with large windows and a really nice view, for example, I greatly enjoyed that. The atmosphere created was quiet! Location: the hotel was near to the cliff overlooking the coast line and a hill overlooking that whole coast line from playa Carmen down to mal Pais.

    Couples looking for a retreat

    The infinity pool was amazing, with amazing views during sunset. The breakfast was a treat each morning, different verity of local dishes that never got old.

    It wasn't cheap, but honestly, you get what you pay for.

    amazing views
    private villa
    delicious breakfast
    maintenance issues

    Staying at Vista De Olas blew my mind! The private villa offered very nice 270-degree ocean views. Watching the lightning over the water at night was a highlight. The design of the villa felt elegant yet cozy, with both indoor and outdoor showers-a cool experience showering under the moon. The infinity pool was fine, perfect for relaxation with amazing views. Breakfast was a treat every morning, with fresh fruit and unique daily options. I loved the grilled local fish. It became our go-to dinner choice. One downside was access-it could be a bit tricky, especially during the rainy season, and the nearby town required an ATV. The resort is away from the main attractions, which suited us because it felt tranquil, but it also meant a bit of driving or walking. My only frustrations were minor maintenance issues in the villa, like some lights not working and the bathroom missing a mirror. Despite these small quirks, the overall experience was relaxing and enjoyable. If you're looking for a lovely spot with amazing views and a peaceful vibe, this is your place!

    delicious breakfast
    steep hill

    I can't say enough about how amazing the infinity pool was with its breathtaking views and how delicious the daily breakfast was, especially the fresh fruit. The hills leading up were quite steep, but the view made it all worthwhile! I would definitely return!

    A Hidden Gem with Fine Views!

    The Beautiful Villa offered amazing ocean views and a good outdoor shower. Enjoyed swimming in the infinity pool during quiet mornings. Pro tip, visit the pool early to avoid crowds. Breakfast was a highlight with fresh local flavors. Roger's warm hospitality.
