Property Information |

Villa Del Mar C 105, also known as "Casa Kokai", is a spacious 1600 square foot, ground floor, two bedroom luxury beachfront condo in the middle of the best powder white sand beach in Puerto Aventuras and directly adjacent to the largest pool in PA. Quite simply stated, this condo has the very best location of any two bedroom
condo in all of Puerto Aventuras.
Puerto Aventuras is an exclusive gated golf/marina/beach resortcommunity located about fifty minutes south of the Cancun airport and fifteen minutes south of Playa Del Carmen. It is also close to Xcaret archeo/eco park, Xel Ha, Akumal, and the Mayan ruins at Tulum. Puerto Aventuras has the only full service marina between
Cancun and Belize and it is home to many deep sea fishing boats, luxury yachts, day-tripping sail boats and dive boats. The marina and the associated restuarants, businesses, dolphins, and yachts add
tremendously to the vitality and excitement of this unique resort community. PA really has it all!! It is the best location on the Riviera Maya.
The Villa Del Mar (sometimes also refered to as "Villas Del Mar"} condominiums are all perfectly located just a very short three minute walk from all of the restaurants, shops, dolphin discovery, and other activities in the marina area. VDM is the premier condo complex in Puerto Aventuras.
My beautiful two bedroom condo, Villa Del Mar C 105, Casa Kokai, is located *directly* on the powder white sand beach. Only the condos in the Villa Del Mar "C" and "A" buildings are directly on the beach. When you are lounging on the terrace, gazing at the azure blue Caribbean, there is nothing to obstruct your view save for some coconut palm trees and perhaps a few sunbathing beauties. The beach is so perfect that it has been featured in some Corona beer commercials. The beach may also have a few topless sunbathers. Just a hundred yards down the beach is a palapa beach bar (part of the Omni
hotel) with wandering Mexican waiters anxious to serve you pina coladas, margaritas or some food items.
The Villa Del Mar C building contains thirteen condos on three floors. The C 105 and the C 205 units are on the northern end of the building and they are the largest of all of the two bedroom condos in the area. I own both of these condos. The C 105 unit is on the ground floor and so you can walk directly through the sliding glass
doors from either the master bedroom or the living room onto the beach. The C 205 condo is directly above the C 105 condo with the exact same floor plan, with its own jacuzzi and with a slightly better (higher) view of the beach and the pool. Both condos are immediately adjacent to a huge, stunningly beautiful, two leveled fresh water swimming pool. The pool is the largest pool in Puerto
Aventuras.
A private four person jacuzzi sits on the condo's large terrace. Itis hidden from the view of the neighbors. I frequently enjoy taking a long candle-lit soak in the hot jacuzzi after an hour of night snorkeling on the off-shore coral reef. (Don't forget to bring an underwater flashlight!) There is also a tiled dunk tank on the
terrace for rinsing off diving equipment.
We are very fortunate to have such a beautiful reef so close to our powder white sand beach. It is quite unusual to have such a large coral reef just a hundred yards off shore. Unlike Puerto Morellos and many other areas on the Riviera Maya, a boat is not needed to fully enjoy the beauty of our reef. Because of the reef, the waves are very gentle and children can safely build sand castles without being washed away. The beach, which stretches almost a mile in length, is never over crowded. The private beach in front of VDM is also patrolled by our own secuity people and it is free of
beggars, hair braiders, T-shirt sellers, and other people who seem to frequent so many other beaches in the Caribbean. You will not be disturbed when relaxing on our quiet beach and your children will be very safe. Just be very careful not to fall asleep in the sun, and please don't forget your hat and sunscreen!
Because my condo is so close to all of the shops and restaurants in the marina area, a car is really unnecessary. In Akumal and many other areas on the Riviera Maya, a rental car is an expensive necessity. There is a taxi stand not more than 150 meters from my
condo and so it is easy to get inexpensive transportation to Playa Del Carmen, Xcaret or Tulum. There are also car rental facilities in Puerto Aventuras. When I am in PA for a couple of weeks, I
frequently rent a car for two or three days to go exploring and shopping. So when you are pricing vacation rentals, don't forget to factor in the need and the cost for a rental car.
The Villa Del Mar C 105 condo has two bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a living room , a dining room, a small study/office area attached to the master bedroom,, a utility room, and a fully equipped kitchen. This is a big condo (about 1600 square feet) with lots of room.
The large master bedroom, with a Texan style king sized bed, has windows on three sides with magnificent views of the beach, the terrace, and the huge pool. There is a small brightly lit studio/office on the northen side of the master bedroom where my portrait artist wife likes to do her oil painting. The northern light is perfect for artists. Only the two bedroom condos on the ends of the Villa del Mar B, C and D buildings have this extra area, and this area, together with the lighting coming from three sides, makes the master bedrooms in C 105 and C 205 truly "masterfull".
The condo is perfectly situated so that in the winter the sun rises directly over the beach in front of the slidng glass doors in the master bedroom. I love to prop myself up on a couple of pillows on the king sized bed to watch the black palms sillouetted against the
red/purple hues of the pre-sunrise sky. When the sun finally rises majestically out of the blue Caribbean, its hot rays hit directly on our cool terrace. On a January morning, when the temperature might have dropped overnight to 50 degrees, it feels wonderful to soak up
the warmth of the sun sitting on the soft comfy lounge chairs on our private terrace. As the sun rises higher in the sky, and as the day heats up to 85 or 95 degrees, the terrace becomes shaded (see the first photo) so that you can sit comfortably while still enjoying the magnificent view. It is really a perfect solar design ... the Mayan astrologers at Chichen Itza couldn't have positioned it any better!
The master bathroom is an all marble work of art and features a shower and a small private jacuzzi bathtub. Candles and dimmer switches allow you to fine tune the lighting so as to make for a most relaxing and potentially romantic soak.
The large living room opens to the terrace and contains two sofas and all of the usual entertainment amenities (Stereo, CD, VCR, DVD) and a cable TV with HBO, CNN, ESPN, NBC, CBS, Disney and several other channels. There is central air conditioning with a thermostat
for each room. The chandeliered dining room seats six around a beautiful dining room table. The all marble kitchen has an electric oven, a microwave, dishwasher, garbage disposal, blenders, electric grill, and a large refrigerator. The second bedroom contains two full
sized beds (Mexicans call these beds "matrimonial") and features its own private terrace with a north facing view of the pool. Casa Kokai is the only two bedroom condo in VDM with a small private terrace off of the second bedroom. It is great place for a quiet siesta. There is a third bathroom with a stacked Whirlpool washer/dryer, a toilet and a sink.
I invite you to spend some time in PA paradise. I will do everything possible to insure that you have your best vacation ever! You will absolutely love PA!!

Dear Jim and Peggy:
We were absolutely thrilled with our vacation. Your condo exceeded all our expectations. Puerto Aventuras was exactly as you described. The four of us kept saying, "It just can't get any better than this." Then, something great would happen and we would all laugh. Like sitting on the beach in front of the condo. We
were thinking how gorgeous and relaxing it was. Then, Miguel, from the Omni came over and asked if we would like a drink from the bar and a menu for lunch. The drinks were awesome and the lunchdelicious. We enjoyed the balcony in the condo every morning and evening. We had a card match going for the 3 nights we were there
and couldn't have asked for a better view. The moon was full all 3 nights so the water was shimmering in the distance.
When I mentioned to you, Jim, that my husband and I had decided a few years ago never to return to Mexico because of all the "unpleasantries" in the many places we had been, you said PA would be our cup of tea. You were absolutely right. It is truly paradise and we cannot wait to return.
Sincerely,
Alicia Pirtle
