Luxury Playacar Penthouse with Private Rooftop Plunge Pool - Sleeps 9
Experience Playa del Carmen from a spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath penthouse at AWA Residence in gated Playacar, one of the area’s most desirable residential communities. With room for up to 9 guests, a private rooftop terrace, and access to extensive resort-style amenities, this penthouse is designed for families, couples traveling together, and longer stays.
The standout feature is the private rooftop terrace. Enjoy your own plunge pool, hammocks, shaded pergola, outdoor dining area, lounge space, and outdoor kitchen. It’s a comfortable place to start the morning, cool off in the afternoon, enjoy dinner outside, or relax after a day at the beach.
Inside, the penthouse has a bright, open layout with plenty of room to spread out. The main living area connects the kitchen, dining, and lounge spaces, making it easy for everyone to spend time together without feeling crowded. Large windows bring in natural light, while air conditioning and ceiling fans help keep the condo comfortable throughout the year.
The fully equipped kitchen includes generous counter space, island seating, full-size appliances, cookware, dishes, glassware, and the essentials needed for everything from a quick breakfast to a family dinner. The open layout keeps the kitchen connected to the living area so the person cooking is still part of the conversation.
The penthouse includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms, giving groups more privacy and flexibility than a typical hotel stay. The primary bedroom features a king bed, while the additional bedrooms provide comfortable sleeping arrangements for families and groups. Each bedroom is designed as a quiet retreat after a day exploring Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya.
Guests have full access to the amenities at AWA Residence Playacar. The property features a large main swimming pool surrounded by tropical landscaping, additional shared rooftop pools for adults, hot tubs, a gym, sauna, coworking areas, pickleball and tennis facilities, ping-pong, pool table, kids club, playground, walking paths, and landscaped common areas. There is also a pool bar with hours that may vary by season.
AWA Residence is located inside Playacar Phase II, a gated community with 24-hour security. Playacar is known for its tropical landscaping, walkable streets, residential atmosphere, and convenient access to Playa del Carmen.
The beach is approximately a 12-minute walk from AWA. From the property, guests can follow the pedestrian route through Playacar toward the beach entrance. Fifth Avenue, restaurants, shopping, nightlife, and many of Playa del Carmen’s attractions are also nearby, giving you easy access to the activity of town while returning to a quieter residential setting.
The location also makes a convenient base for exploring the Riviera Maya. Day trips to cenotes, Akumal, Tulum, eco-adventure parks, snorkeling, and other attractions are all within reach.
For guests who prefer to stay close to home, the penthouse and AWA amenities provide plenty of reasons to slow down. Spend the morning by the main pool, enjoy the rooftop in the afternoon, prepare dinner at home, or unwind in the evening from your private outdoor space.
The condo also includes practical features for longer stays, including a washer and dryer, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a full kitchen, and comfortable living spaces. A dedicated workspace and AWA’s coworking areas make the property a good option for guests combining vacation with remote work.
One assigned gated parking space is available for the penthouse, with additional guest parking available in designated areas.

The place was very nice. I would have given the place 5 stars, but there was difficulty/confusion on gaining access and there was some messages after we left about using too much electricity that left me uneasy.
The property was beautiful andwas all we had hoped for. Commuincation with the owner was prompt and professional. Would reccomend this property to anyone.
I couldn't have asked for a better location! The house was perfect, beautifully maintained and wonderfully appointed. The beds and rooms were comfortable. The area right outside the complex feels like a garden - cobblestone street winding around old large trees. There are a few restaurants and an Oxxo across the street, making everything super convenient for meals or supplies. The complex has a golf cart that will take you to the entrance of 5th Avenue, and you can walk to the beach from the same spot. What a great house!
My husband and I had a beautiful week at AWA and grateful that we were able to stay in this beautifully decorated and comfortable 3 bedroom with rooftop. Thanks to Erica for all of her attention to detail and terrific communication throughout our stay. We have stayed at many properties and I must say that AWA although a larger complex was peaceful and private. The owner's of this property are in great hands with Erica. She goes above and beyond to make certain you are happy. Thank you for a lovely week. We would not hesitate to rent this unit again.
