Set on Calle 22 Norte in the Gonzalo Guerrero neighborhood, this second-floor residence in the boutique Piedra Viva building offers a rare combination of generous proportions, natural ventilation, and walkable centrality in Playa del Carmen. The 116-square-meter layout feels notably more open than many newer two-bedroom condos in the area, where density often comes at the expense of livability. Cross breezes move through the interior, and two private balconies extend the living space outward, giving the home a brighter, more relaxed rhythm throughout the day.
The interior is fully furnished and move-in ready, with a kitchen finished in granite countertops, quality cabinetry, and a full suite of appliances including a refrigerator, oven range, microwave, toaster, and a stacked washer and dryer. Floor-to-ceiling windows pull light deep into the common areas, while tile floors and marble accents reinforce a clean, low-maintenance feel suited to both full-time living and seasonal use. The two full bathrooms feature glass shower doors, and the master suite enjoys its own access to one of the balconies.
One balcony overlooks the tropical central pool courtyard, framed by mature palms and the soft geometry of the three-story building. The second balcony faces the rear of the property, offering a quieter outlook and additional privacy. The pool itself sits at the heart of the courtyard, surrounded by a patio with outdoor seating and a defined dining area, creating an inviting shared space for the building's twelve residences.
Piedra Viva is a low-density building, a detail that shapes the daily experience of living here. With only twelve units across three stories, the common areas remain uncrowded, and the sense of community feels closer to a small residential enclave than a high-rise tower. Assigned parking, a secure entrance foyer, and a well-maintained exterior with a cistern and public water and sewer connections round out the practical infrastructure.
The location is one of the property's strongest assets. A short walk leads to 5th Avenue, the beach, and the everyday conveniences that define central Playa del Carmen: restaurants, cafés, gyms, grocery stores, and a full range of services. The neighborhood retains a residential character even at the center of the action, allowing residents to step out into the energy of the city and return home to a quieter, more private setting. Property taxes are modest at approximately $300 USD annually, and monthly condo fees of $195 USD cover the upkeep of the shared spaces.
Built in 2004 and thoughtfully maintained since, this Piedra Viva condo represents a style of central Playa del Carmen living that has become increasingly difficult to find: spacious, light-filled, and quietly situated within walking distance of everything that makes the city special.
