Condo Mayan Waters
Quinta del Sol condo complex Penthouse unit #412
Mayan Riviera - Riviera Maya
luxurious penthouse condo with pool & ocean view is for rent in Puerto Aventuras Mexico
will rent as a 2 or 3 bedroom unit
for a maximum occupancy of 8 people (no more than 6 adults)

To the ancient Maya, water was the source of life.  It was because of this belief that many important Mayan women of past were named in recognition of water.  Choimha 'beautiful water',  Caha-Paluma 'falling water',  Tzununiha 'house of the water',  Cakixia 'water of parrots',  

The Maya of past are gone, but their insight into the spiritual value of water has not been lost.  This spectacular condo so appropriately named 'Mayan Waters' celebrates the rejuvenating power of water in the most modern of ways.

From the spectacular serpentine pool that the kids will fall in love with.  To the calm Caribbean waters lapping at the powdery white sand beach.  Your stay at Mayan Waters will be centered around water and its' strong healing effects on body and soul.

Mayan Waters soothing effects are not reserved for the outdoors.  Once you open the impressive hand carved wooden double doors and step inside this spacious condo, the stress of modern life will be left behind.

A pleasing mix of old and new is tastefully integrated into the interior design and finishing of this impressive condo. 

Heavy, solid wood, Hacienda style furniture seems totally in sync with plush sofas and pillow top mattresses.

Neutrally colored walls accent magnificent vaulted domed brick ceilings from another era. 

Modern appliances & electronics are in place amidst stone counters and marble floors. 

Like the mesmerizing gin clear waters that you will view from the terrace.  The tasteful use of natural materials contributes to an encompassing feeling of self satisfaction.

The open design of Mayan Waters is ideal for the natural flow of  movement and conversation. 

The spacious full kitchen is well equipped to prepare anything from a refreshing cocktail, to a light snack, or a multi course meal.  Granite counter tops, a large breakfast bar with seating for 4, rich mahogany cabinetry and all of the modern appliances ensure the cook in your group is well taken care of.

A wood dining table with seating for 8 is conveniently located between the kitchen and living areas. 

The living room has comfortable sofa and 4 stylish easy chairs. Entertainment is provided by a flat screen TV with satellite and a DVD/CD player. 

A large slider provides access to a covered terrace where you will find 2 chaise lounges, a dining table, wet bar and a gas grill.  This inviting environment calls for you to enjoy your meals al fresco as you contemplate the days activities and take in the view.

The Master bedroom has a King bed with quality linens beneath a vaulted red brick dome ceiling.  An attached bathroom with shower is very tastefully done in marble.  A glass slider from the bedroom provides access to the terrace which runs the length of the frontage to connect with the dining and living rooms.

The 1st. Guest bedroom, like the master bedroom, has a King bed under another  magnificent dome brick ceiling.   Quality  linens ensure a comfortable night of rest to inspire restful dreams of warm Caribbean days spent frolicking in those rejuvenating Mayan Waters.  The attached en-suite bathroom has a bath tub/shower combination and finished in the same high quality marbles.

A sliding glass door opens up to a small terrace where you can enjoy marina & jungle views.

We are happy to share a few GUESTS COMMENTS from past guests of this condo:

ONLINE 5 star review: 'Beautiful Condo and Location'   Our group of 7 had an amazing time. The condo was very clean and spacious. We had everything we needed. You are one steps away from an awesome and safe beach. We have rented 3 different condos in this building and this has been our favorite one.

ONLINE REVIEW:  'Beautiful Well Appointed Condo'   My family stayed at Mayan Waters, Quinta Del Sol, and had a lovely time!  It’s a beautiful condo located in a great area with things to do for all ages.  We had everything we needed to prepare a meal at the condo or we could go to any of the restaurants in the Puerto Aventuras area.  Doug and Desiree were super helpful with the information they provided before we arrived.  Would definitely stay here again!

Hi Doug and Desiree!  We had a great week at Mayan Waters and really appreciate the tips and info you provided beforehand.  Everything was just as described.  We had everything we needed to prepare meals if we wanted and plenty of towels for our stay.  It is truly a lovely well kept condo.  If I were to suggest anything it would be larger containers in the condo to assist with the recycling.  Other than that, everything was awesome! Thank you for having us !  Kelly M. May, 2018

ONLINE 5 STAR REVIEW:  'Fantastic Condo in Great Location'  7 of us stayed here for spring break and were very happy with the condo.  Safe gated marina community.  Condo is well appointed and comfortable.  Great views of the pools and ocean.  Comfortable beds and living furniture with a nice big TV.  I appreciated that the kitchen was well stocked.  Some rentals have just a few utensils and few pots and pans.  This unit had everything we needed and more.  We bought fresh fish at the marina a couple times and used the grill to prepare them.  Was great!  I also appreciated all the towels.  So many beach towels so everyone could have a couple down at the pool.  The complex itself is quiet and very clean.  We walked to the marina several times and tried different restaurants.  We loved sitting with a drink and just watching the dolphins at dolphin discovery.  We all felt safe at this location and would highly recommend it.

Doug and Desiree-  The condo was so much more than we expected, beautiful.  The antiques in Penthouse 412  were  lovely.  The immediate gated community was very safe, and met our needs.  Thank You both.   Anytime we asked for something to be fixed or replaced it was.  We are sorry we did  not get to visit with you Doug so we could tell you this in person.   We will spread your company name to our friends.   Regards, Dolores and Walter B.  March 2018

ONLINE REVIEW: "Superb getaway, Beautiful Apartment, Great beach location!!!"  My family and I had a great stay.  The space is perfect for 6 adults, and they even helped us with a crib and a high chair for our 7 month old baby.   Mayan waters is conveniently located by the beach, with great access to the Puerto Aventuras community.  The building is very well maintained, and the apartment has everything you need for a very comfortable stay... from linens, towels, and a complete kitchen.   If you are looking for a spacious apartment, at the beach, and within a safe and family oriented community (Puerto Aventuras), search no more.... this is the place.

I just want to say that everything went great, and we he had a really great great time.  Starting from your support to guide us through the check-in process, all the way to the apartment itself, and even with your support  to fix the AC issue.  We found the place exactly as you described, and we really enjoyed the facilities, location and everything. Jacob L.

 Hi Desiree, I have used you company 4 or 5 times to secure accommodations  in Puerto Aventuras. I have never been disappointed with the service or helpfulness of Brisa Caribe. You are always professional, something not all travel agency display.  It's a pleasure to work with you and Doug. If I decide to return later in the winter, you guys will be who I contact.  Jim T.

ONLINE REVIEW: We stayed here with my family for 10 days and it was perfect. It was a beautiful condo, very spacious for 7 of us. We had a playpen and high chair delivered free of charge, which was very much appreciated. The kitchen was fully equipped and there is a bbq on the deck as well. Our children loved playing with the sand toys and boogie boards, which were stored on the deck for our use. The condo is located in a perfect location. It is right on the beach. Although the beach in front of the complex is not great for swimming, a 5 minute walk down the beach towards the Omni Hotel and the beach is perfect. The beach was never busy and was a great beach for kids as it was very safe for swimming and the area blocked off is not over their heads. The pools at the complex were also never busy, and the centre pool was heated, which was certainly enjoyed on cloudy days. The location of the condo was perfect. A 10 minute walk to the marina where you can watch the dolphins, manatees and sea lions, go shopping or eat at one of the fabulous restaurants. Puerto Aventuras is cute little town, very safe and not too busy. The rental agent was excellent to deal with and was always quick to respond to questions or concerns. We can't wait to return!!

Hi Desiree, I think I have used you company 4 or 5 times to secure accommodations  in Puerto Advantouris. I have never been disappointed with the service or helpfulness of Brisa Caribe. You are always professional, something not all travel agency display.  It's a pleasure to work with you and Doug. If I decide to return later in the winter, you guys will be who I contact.  Jim T.

ONLINE REVIEW: Nice, Quiet, Relaxing: This condo fit us perfectly for our girls trip.  It was very well furnished and we were very comfortable.  The kitchen was nicely equipped.  There was more than enough kitchen utensils, pots, pans and dishes to store all the grocery shopping we did.  The pool area was super enjoyable.  Ernesto, Doug and Desiree were very helpful and always handled any questions or issues very quickly.  Thank You!  We'd love to return again.  July 24, 2015

Hola Desiree and Doug!  Thank you for another great vacation and condo experience here at Quinta Del Sol.  The administrators were very attentive as well and helped handle any questions or concerns we had. Very nice people. Thank you again for arranging the high chair and pack n play. They were a big help with the little one. We hope to visit you again soon and wanted to inquire whether you had any condos available for one week between the dates of March 21-April 4? May return without the kids to relax:)  Jason B. Feb 2015

ONLINE REVIEW: We had a great time at this condo. The apartment was super nice, clean, with all we needed. The pool was fun for my kids. The beach was beautiful. We loved walking to the beach from the pool. The condo is located within a residential complex. You can walk to tennis/golf club, to restaurants, convenience store, ice-cream shops. There's even a Swim-with-Dolphins attraction within the complex. The property manager checked on us to see if we needed anything. Short drive to other attractions like Xcaret and Xplor. Perfect location for day trips. We had a wonderful time in Puerto Aventuras. Absolutely recommended!  Jan. 2015

We looooved our vacation!! The condo was great, the beach great and your service could not have been better.  Thank you!
Leticia.

Really we had a wonderful time at the Quinta del Sol Condo at Puerto Aventuras.  It was just what we were looking for. The weather also was great and we had no worries in any respect.  Take for granted that we will look forward for another time in one of the properties you manage.  Say hello and thanks to Doug in my behalf.  Kindest and Warmest Regards.  Ruben R. Jan 2015

We really like the property and we will definitely rent it again if we visit that area in the future. I appreciate how well stocked the kitchen is. The place was very clean and well kept. Thanks.  Tina B. June 2014.

ONLINE REVIEW: This place is a gem. The complex is very quiet and relaxing. The balcony provides a view of the ocean and it is very relaxing to listen to the waves. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the dishes, pots, pans etc you could need. No check in hassles and everything was clean and in good working order. This place is nice. Short walk from the restaurants

"Great condo! Puerto Aventuras is wonderful!"  We stayed for one week in Mayan Waters. The condo is beautiful and has everything you could need. Super clean, everything works. Very fast response when we couldn't find the wifi code (it was right on the counter). The condo is on the 4th floor and had 3 large bays to the deck with a view of the pools and of the ocean (a "window" view of the ocean due to the configuration of the building - which, on the other hand, keeps it nice and calm on the deck even when it is windy). The building has a night watchman although I'm not sure why because it seemed incredibly safe. Puerta aventuras is totally wonderful. It's like being in the lake district of Italy with all the restaurants on the water. Again, totally safe, and also safe from any time-share pitches. There are a couple small convenience stores, and across the highway from the gate is a good supermarket. There are scuba dive shops, and other boat options (simple cruises, deep sea fishing). Puerta aventuras is fairly central on the peninsula and there are a lot of cenotes within a few miles of the gates. We had a great zipline experience at Selvatica (about an hour away), and a great scuba experience at aquanauts (right next to Cafe Ole). Being at Puerta aventuras means you are "on your own" in terms of planning your time, very different from the all inclusive resorts. Having a rental car is helpful. We will definitely go back to Puerta aventuras and hope to stay at Mayan Waters again.  Al & Sue,  March 2014

TRIP ADVISOR ONLINE REVIEW: My husband and I along with another couple stayed at this condo for 1 week from March 30 - April 6th. Our stay was wonderful. The natural stone flooring is gorgeous as are the arched doorways and arched ceilings. We used the BBQ nightly, the condo is very well equipped and we lacked for nothing.  We didn't swim directly in front of the condo as we didn't bring water shoes, but just a short walk down the beach is a soft white sand area with break waters. The pools were great, our favourite was the pool by the beach.  The condo staff were constantly watering, weeding and taking care of the grounds and every evening there were two security guards on the grounds who were always very helpful with any questions.  They had a bit of a mishap at the complex when one of the boilers blew and we ended up with no water, however one of the security guards showed me the blown boiler and they had a plumber on his way to fix it even though it was 8pm in the evening and the water was back on within an hour - very impressive for a private condo complex!   The condo is about a 5 min walk to the center of Puerto Aventuras with all the restaurants and the Dolphin area, shops and taxis.  The only draw back about Puerto Aventuras is there is no grocery store, so you have to travel to Playacar to get groceries, but it's not the end of the world, the taxi ride to Playacar is about $45 return.
There is a binder at the condo with recommendations for restaurants and activities close by - very well put together. If you want to go sport fishing go with Captain Walter, we took one of his boats (Anne Mary) and had Captain Marcus - we did the best of al the boats - Captain Marcus holds the title for best captain for two years in a row for the number of fish caught (Marlin, Sailfish, Dorado, etc).  All in all it is a great condo, we highly recommend it and would stay again!  RENTAL AGENT RESPONSE:  There are 2 convenience type stores in the village center (5 minutes walk from the condo) and a full size grocery store named Chedraui very near the entry gate (15 minute walk or $5 taxi ride). On Wednesdays and Saturdays there is an excellent fresh fruit and veggie market in the village square (5 minute walk) Sorry that you were not aware of this.

TRIP ADVISOR REVIEW:  "Perfect Spring Break Condo"  My family of four along with a friend and her son just returned from a spring break stay at Mayan Waters. The condo was awesome! The decor was beautiful and the amenities were top notch - from plenty of nice beach towels to the perfect margarita glassware - they really thought of all of the details. There was tons of space for three adults and three teenage boys to spread out.  The location was ideal for the activities we planned... Xel Ha, Xplor, Playa del Carmen, Akumal and Tulum were all just a short drive and a retorno or two down the road. Loved the proximity of the very nice Chedraui grocery store as well and Puerto Aventuras was the perfect town for a quiet getaway. Eating dinner watching the dolphins was a real treat.  I would be remiss If I did not mention Doug Wasmuth in this review. In addition to his quick and thorough response to all of our questions, he provided tons information and tips. I have rented from VRBO numerous times before and never have I been provided as much background and trip planning information as Doug provided.   If you are looking for a party atmosphere ,bars, etc. stay in Playa, but if you want a quiet getaway in a place that has everything you need - Puerto  Aventuras is the place.

"My family and I stayed at your condo in July, 2010. The condo is beautifully furnished and very well stocked with everything we needed from soap, towels, a well stocked kitchen, trash bags and you even had bottled water for us! We loved sitting on the spacious outdoor patio to read a book or play a game with the beautiful view of the pool and ocean. The location was perfect for our outings to Tulum, Coba, Playa del Carmen, and Akumal. We loved walking around the shops and restaurants of Puerto Adventuras and my children swam with the dolphins. Even though the beach right in front of the condo wasn't swimmable for children (too many sea urchins), we just took a short walk north of the condo and played at the beach in front of the Omni hotel. It was a great play to swim, snorkel and make sand castles. The only problem we experienced on the trip was when my husband and son were trapped in the elevator for 45 minutes upon departure. But now it makes for a funny story! Thank you so much for sharing your paradise with us! Doug and the Brisa Caribe Team were so professional and organized and we felt very comfortable with the rental process. We loved all the information on the Brisa Caribe website prior to the trip and the thoughtful notebooks in the condo." Tracy L.

"We had the best time staying there. Condo was beautiful and the balcony was best, great view of the pool and the ocean.  Bedrooms were great and comfortable and guys from Brisa Caribe were most helpful and made it great experience for us."

Doug--The unit was perfect for us and beautifully done and we enjoyed ourselves greatly.  Thanks  Allyson C, May 2008

Thank you Doug.   We had a wonderful vacation and are looking forward to coming back hopefully next year.  The condo was beautiful and we very much enjoyed Puerto Aventuras.   We found the beaches to be very lovely.  We snorkelled in the bay by the break water and saw great fish and coral.  We loved walking to dinner and tried several restaurants (Gringo Dave's not being our favourite but it was entertaining).  We also really liked PA's convenient vicinity to Playa del Carmen, Akumal and Tulum.  All-in-all we had a terrific time.   Best Andrea Cragin, April 2008

Loved the condo !! We had a great time  S. Adair April 6/08.
