Overall, our stay was satisfactory. On the positive side, the beachfront at Xaman Ha is probably one of the nicest in PDC. We have not visited PDC in about 7 years. The town itself has changed a lot in that time, much busier and louder than it used to be. We used to stay at the north end of the PDC beach which was beautiful Now, I would say Xaman Ha beachfront is better. BTW, the sea grass problem is not as bad as it has been in past years and Xaman Ha does a nice job cleaning up the beach each morning. The pool bar was nice. Robin, the proprietor/bartender is great. He knows everyone by name and is very friendly. The proximity of the condo to downtown was very convenient. It is a short walk to get to 5th Ave. and all the restaurants. Xaman Ha is a fairly small complex and there were many people who are repeat guests and many knew each other. So, we felt a little out of place at times. Everyone was friendly though. Now, on the negative side. The complex has many stairs, up and down (confusing layout) to get to and from the actual unit. This was somewhat inconvenient but not a real big deal as we don't have any mobility issues. For someone who did have any kind of mobility issue, it would be impossible to stay here. The complex itself and our unit 7122 is beginning to show age. The landscaping around the complex is not great. It's not lush and kept up like you might see at a resort. We tried to do laundry and found out the dryer was not working. The toaster in the kitchen was broken. The shower head in one of the bathrooms flew off when the water in the shower was turned on the first time. We turned it off immediately, but a few hours later the lady in the condo below came up to tell us something from our unit was leaking through her ceiling. We talked to Oscar, the maintenance man, who was very nice and tried to take care of everything. He went out and bought a new toaster and repaired the shower head (I think. we didn't use that shower again because we were afraid of flooding the condo below). The dryer was not repaired or replaced by the time we left. The decorating in the condo, (drapes and comforters, for example) are dated and faded. It just looks a little tired. I also think the fees that HomeAway charges, on top of the rent and tax, are too high.
