We rented Studio Maria to get extra space while more family members joined us to stay in Playa Caribbean unit #6. That proved to be a great plan. The studio was just right for sleeping, dressing, etc. With the small kitchenette, it also would serve as a budget approach to gaining access to this Half Moon Bay location. The unit was immaculate, wifi was adequate, location was great as usual.

We rented this little studio for my mother-in-law. It was perfect for her! It had everything she needed and was close enough to be near us, but not with us!

We loved our stay at Playa Caribe. The neighbourhood is very quiet and I enjoyed my early morning runs free of traffic. The bay has excellent snorkelling and the pool was nice to keep cool while sunbathing. Uber relaxing. We booked a studio on the lower floor which faces the office, courtyard and street. No problem not having the ocean view from our suite as the patio on the beach side offered a comfortable area to hang out and enjoy the sunrise and pelican watching. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance.

Clean unit that had everything we needed for our stay. Having a few more hooks to hang clothes would of been appreciated. Bed was too firm for us.
