Especially George (Security Guard) made our stay, -what a great "hombre", -give him our regards! We will be back for sure!
 
Thank you for everything Andrew & will be back!!

Take care,

We stayed at Villa Del Mar C104 from Nov 3rd to Nov 17th, 2011, a 2 bedroom/2 bath condo. We rented the unit through Andrew Leigh of Sol Maya Rentals and were very pleased with his professional and personal service. Andrew provided us with local tips and took care of some small requests that made our stay even more pleasant and easy.
 
The condo was recently renovated and the owners have done a really good job. The decor is tasteful and practical with some interesting sculptures and art. The appliances, furnishings and furniture show quality and regard for the renters who want to find an upscale apartment. Most of all, after having had a dismal experience in the prior year in another condo in the same complex, the whole unit, kitchen, baths, closets and all rooms were spotlessly clean and well maintained. The kitchen and laundry facilities were new or nearly new and clean. We were very comfortable in this condo.
 
Working with Andrew Leigh was great. He was very helpful with information and we were even provided with a welcome basket (Avocados, Totopos, etc.) when we arrived at the condo. His was very attentive and responded to our emails and questions promptly. We certainly recommend working with him when you are looking for a vacation stay in Puerto Aventuras. He knows the area well and will give a fair report.
 
Best Regards,
Margit and Aravind

We truely loved Villa Oceana! The rooms were spacious, sunny and very up-to-date with all modern amenities.
 
The grounds were wonderful! Even with the beach just feet away, we spent most of our time on the patio and the lawn area lounging under the palm trees and palapas. It was great being within steps of the condo unit and the water at the same time. The beach was quiet and without the vendors or timeshare promoters that you get at some resorts in the area.
 
Andrew, the property manager was very accomadating. We had lost our original reservation at near-by condo and had to find a new condo in under 2 weeks. After we contacted andrew, he worked directly with the other property manager to transfer payment. We ended up being very pleased that the other condo fell though and we got to spend our vacation in Villa Oceana.
 
If you are looking for a quiet and restful vacation at a beautiful beach front location you can't do better than Villa Oceana. We can't wait to return.

Artfully decorated in a luxurious style to accommodate anyone and provide them with the comfort and style they would expect in their own surroundings. Enjoy the sunrise or sunset from the amazing viewpoint of the lanai, wonderful to entertain a group or share a romantic dinner on and listen to the sound of the ocean. The kitchen is outfitted with top of line appliances including natural gas on the 4 burner stove as well as all the amenities one would need to entertain. The pool and grounds are meticulously maintained daily and allow the vacationer the ultimate experience not found in a hotel setting. A short walk into town allows one to reconnect with the locals through a variety of restaurants and vendors to shop in. Feeling adventurous? take a swim with the dolphins in the marina or head out for day of diving or snorkeling. Punta Roca is an experience in itself including the luxury of a small town within walking distance, a major grocery store, and a community safe and progressive enough to enjoy being in another country.

We vacationed in Puerto in April 2011 and were extremely pleased with our accomodations. We have previously traveled throughout Mexico and Villas Ixchel was by far the best. The location is amazing- just steps to the pool and beach. The condo is luxurious with all the best amenities and very spacious. We were two families with 4 adults and 4 children and we had ample room to spread out. From the moment you walk in the front door, the view will take your breath away. Gorgeous scenery and with the massive sliding doors open it allows for a great feeling of outdoor living. The bedrooms were very large and the main living area was so inviting. A true piece of paradise... Andrew Leigh was very attentive and was a wonderful resource to us- his recommendations for dining were great! We took advantage of the grocery service and it was wonderful to have cervezas and snacks in the fridge upon our arrival. Puerto is a beautiful town and we felt very safe during our stay. We had a wonderful time at Villa Ixchel filled with many terrific memories and have already booked our trip to return.

We absolutely loved this two bedroom condominium. The home itself was very clean, comfortable, and spacious. Everything we needed for our family of four. The outside jacuzzi was great too. Being on the ground floor made it very easy for our family as we would go back and forth from the beach all day. Love the area, pool, and the service of the complex. Will be back soon!

Hi Andrew,
I felt I should tell you myself how great it all was. The flight got in just as it was getting dark, and it was such a nice thing after running the gauntlet through all the tour promoters and taxi reps etc, to see the tired and earnest face of the Paradise tour chauffeur, waiting patiently outside. I wish I knew his name so that I could tell the company how impressed we were (same fellow came to take us back). At any rate, five minutes after arriving at la Bahia, Denis and I were sitting under the stars at a little place just down the beach, feet in the sand, having a glass of wine. Every night going to sleep with the roar of the ocean, and every morning waking up to perfect blue skies--absolute heaven. I wasn't able to spend a lot of time there- only a few days - but it was just blissful.
 
Thank you so much for your part in this; I hope to meet you one day!
Sincerely,
Terri

Hi Andrew,
Everything went very well and was exactly what we were expecting. The staff on site were very helpful and accommodating to our needs. We will definitely keep you in mind for our next trip!!
 
Happy Holidays!

My extended family spent this Thanksgiving at the Villa Del Mar condominiums in Puerto Aventuras and had a fantastic time. We booked three units (D105 poolside, A007 oceanside, and A009 oceanside) through Andrew Leigh at Sol Maya Rentals. The units were all lovely, spacious and well maintained. We picked a perfect place to spend our holiday with our family. The beach was fantastic and we felt safe letting the older childern walk to "town" for shopping and sight seeing. Everyone had a great time.
 
I had stayed in Villa Del Mar once before but this was the first time using Sol Maya to book our accomodations and will definitely use them the next time we stay. Andrew Leigh was great to work with. He was familiar with the rentals and worked really hard for us to suggest the right combination of units to accomodate our party (17 people ranging from 6 to 70 years old). He also cheerfully provided concierge services booking dinner reservations, answering questions, suggesting activities and booking tours. I can't recommend Sol Maya more highly.

We had the most fabulous vacation in Puerto Aventuras largely because of where we stayed. The condo, Villa Oceana is everything a vacationing family could ask for, and more. The location is superb, few steps to the pristine pool and the inviting, clean and soft white sand beach, as well as one of the nicest snorkeling spot around. The condo itself is well maintained and managed, immaculately cleaned and well-stocked with drinking water and toiletry as well as linen. They even had a nice fruit basket for us upon arrival. The manager was extremely friendly and hospitable and offered a wealth of information about the surrounding area. Our family have traveled extensively all around the world and this trip to Puerto Aventuras is by far one of the best and most relaxing and enjoyable experience for all of the members of our family. We can't wait for our next trip there!!

Dear Andrew, We had a terrific experience renting Yal Ku Cai condo with Sol Maya Rentals. From beginning to end the service was outstanding-with a warm, personal touch. We had amazing views of the ocean from every window. The condo was spotless, comfortable and nicely decorated. The maid service was great. Nice pool. We loved the location as it was convenient to everything. We met the owners and they were very helpful and friendly. We used bikes provided by the owners to get to the center of Akumal and everywhere else we wanted to go. If you don't have a car, make sure to rent bikes! It's a must to snorkel at the lagoon (1 min bike ride), eat at Turtle Bay bakery and book an adventure trip with Akumal Travel Agency (zip line, sky cycle, cenotes etc.) Thanks to Sol Maya for helping to make our last visit to Akumal one of our best vacations ever. We will return!.

Hi Andrew: I just wanted to write to tell you we had a WONDERFUL time. Mirage #1 was the perfect place for us. I give you full credit for making sure we were in just the right place for us. The condo was a great size and configuration, exactly as promised, far enough from the restaurant, private enough, great view. Hacienda Tortuga's Roberto was very proactive in ensuring we were happy. The beach was quiet enough for the adults to be happy but there were enough other kids around for my kids to play with other kids at the pool sometimes. Really, just perfect. Edventures tours were a high point of the vacation as well, even though we're really not tour types.
 
I loved the entire Akumal area and the snorkeling was incredible - huge turtles, stingrays and really scary barracudas, a snorkler's paradise. We went to Cozumel for a day, but the snorkeling was better in Akumal. We discovered Excaret Beach (sic?) near Chemuyil which was so beautiful and gave my kids a chance to play in waves and see Iguanas. In fact, Chemuyil was a fantastic town that we liked for dinner, playground and cenote.

I wanted to thank you for helping make our stay in Puerto Aventuras such a great week. We all really enjoyed the area, loved the condos, and will certainly miss our nightly margaritas and fish tacos.
 
The kids had a great vacation, (we never did go on our adventure on Sunday, just hung out and relaxed...) and we all decided we would love to return someday in the future. I LOVED swimming w/ the dolphins, would do that again for sure!
 
All of your advice/tips were a big help, esp. since we were "first timers"! As the unofficial organizer (don't know why that is always my job!), it was really helpful to have you give us maps, restaurants - even help w/ the phones - and of course directions to Xpu Ha, which we loved.
 
Thanks again for all of your help. Wishing you happy and healthy 2010. We sure started out our New Year in the right place!

We arranged our trip with Solmayarentals.com. Andrew Leigh was very helpful and gave us any information we requested. We stayed August 19-26 at Villas Flamingo in Akumal. Weather was very hot and humid--took a few days to get used to it.
 
You only needed hot weather clothes, swimsuit, shorts, cool shirts. No washing machine but a laundromat in town. Bring hand washable clothes if possible. The villa is beautiful and clean. If you want to be right on the beach and peaceful go when we did. Not too many people.
 
Thanks So Much,
Linda K.

Andrew,
The folks that were able to go had a wonderful time!! As you know, we were not able to make the trip but I just wanted to thank you for all you did to make their trip great. We will definitely keep your information so we can book another time. Akumal sounds like wonderful spot.
 
Thanks again for the professional handling of the condo!

Dear Sol Maya,
Our visit was great, but I'm not sure much could go wrong in Akumal, it's so beautiful! The room was great, and booking through you was so easy. We also really appreciate your help with the payment due to our unusual circumstance.
 
I know we'll be visiting again soon- and I'll be back in touch when we do!
 
Thanks,

Hi Andrew,
WOW....what a vacation!!!! My husband & I are already trying to make plans for another 4-5 day trip to Playa. Only a few things on my list were scratched off.
 
Your recommendation for Xaman Ha could not have been better, especially for 1st timers. The location was perfect, facilities beautiful & clean, and the employees were some of the friendliest we encountered.
 
Thanks so much!!!

We will continue to use Sol Maya Vacation Rentals everytime we come to Mexico because you are such friendly, caring folks. You go far beyond what most agencies would do to be sure your customers are satisfied. You were a life saver last year, and this year we were so comfortable renting Costa Blanca after you had looked at it for us. Thank you Andrew and Lisa.
 
Hopefully you will see us again next year. Keep well -
Pat and Heidi

Our family had a wonderful two week visit to Villas Talia for the Xmas/New Years break. We are experienced and frequent international travelers where a car and condo rental is a common feature of our holiday plans. Last years visit to Puerto Aventuras (Villas Talia) was by far one of the most rewarding. The condo complex offers quiet, self catering, high quality and safe accommodation that will satisfy the most discerning traveler. We were very impressed by our experience with Sol Maya Rentals with your exceptional customer service from our initial contact to the end of our holiday. The accommodations at Villas Talia were very comfortable and well equipped, and offer exceptional value for money. This is a wonderful location for seniors and families with children because the condo setting allows for freedom, flexibility and comfort along with a great pool area and close proximity to the beach. One can partake in swim with the dolphins just down the road or simply hang out to watch the action while enjoying lunch.
 
Our location in Puerto Aventuras was central to many activities in the area and allowed us close proximity to the nearby Mayan ruins at Tulum and Coba.
 
The really great beaches of Playa del Carmen and Akumal were within easy driving distances and offered many great restaurants and local shopping. The condo is just minutes from the car ferry which allowed us easy access to the island of Cozumel for day trip exploring. There are a multitude of interesting sites to visit in addition to Mexican towns and fishing villages such as Puerto Morelos. While this is not our first visit to the Mayan Riviera, we simply ran out of time to visit them all and look forward to returning again.
 
Exiting the Cancun airport to the highway leading to Puerto Aventuras is quite easy, and the driving distance from the Cancun airport is approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes on a very modern divided highway. There is very good road signage which helped us along the way and your instructions for accessing the condo superb. We look forward to our next visit with you.
 
Warm regards,
Debbie and Warwick

We had a terrific experience renting at Las Flores with Sol Maya Rentals. From beginning to end the service was outstanding-with a warm, personal touch. The condo was spotless, comfortable and invitingly decorated. We loved the location as it was truly convenient to everything. Thanks to Sol Maya for helping to make our last visit to Playa del Carmen one of our best vacations ever.

Thank you for all your help finding us a condo that would best suit our family's needs. The location and description were right-on, as were your directions, suggested restaurants and points-of-interest. Akumal is a great area and we hope to return there soon!

We had a fantastic time, the condo was new, clean, comfy and had all the things we needed for a great stay. If I had to say one great thing about our time there, it was how much we appreciated your grocery-stocking service. Arriving hungry after the dinner hour, we found marinated chicken ready for the pan, along with rice and beans for warming up, fresh pico de gallo and cold beer in the fridge. That really made our day! You made our stay a very pleasant one. Thanks again,

Andrew provided the best in my last minute travel arrangements. He was able to accomodate and customize an itinerary that exceeded my expectations with a knowledge and respect for the Mayan Riviera. His restaurant recommendations were a bullseye on what I was looking for. Thanks for a great trip! I will be consulting with Andrew and his team for my next Mexican adventure.

Dear Sol Maya,
Just wanted to say thanks again for ALL you did to make our vacation so nice. Villas Talia was gorgeous and relaxing and our condo was perfect. We particularly liked the sunrises all the birds singing throughout the day!
 
Heidi and I had one of our nicest vacations ever. We hated to leave. Now we are back in our turtlenecks and wool socks for a few more weeks. Thanks again. We know that you will be successful because you are such caring people and willing to go above and beyond to satisify a customer. We will certainly recommend you to folks here.
 
See ya next year!

We truly enoyed our week stay at Villas Talia in Puerto Adventuras. The 2 bedroom/2bath condo was new, clean and spacious. The pool area is lovely and was not crowded. The management was friendly and helpful with directions and reservations for local outings. All in all, a lovely experience!
