Playitas Villas - Sports Resort

I visited this resort a couple of times so far and always absolutely enjoyed my stay. In this review I want to focus on my personal highlight. I had the pleasure of attending Stephane's daily Crossfit training sessions at Playitas, and I can't recommend him highly enough. His classes are the highlight of my day! His WOD, Metcon and Olympic Weightlifting classes are incredibly well-structured, challenging, and motivating. Stephane's outstanding expertise and passion for fitness shine through in every session, and he always ensures that each participant is performing exercises with proper form and technique. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete, Stephane tailors the workouts to suit all levels creating a welcoming and supportive environment. What I appreciate most is how his attention to detail ensures that everyone, regardless of their fitness level, performs exercises safely and effectively. Stephane's professionalism paired with enthusiasm and dedication to athletic development are truly inspiring. He has a unique ability to make every workout both challenging and fun and makes you want to push your limits and achieve your best. I've seen significant improvements in my technique, strength and endurance thanks to his guidance. Thank you, Stephane, for your incredible dedication and for making every workout an enjoyable and rewarding experience! You truly make a difference!

Sport facilities are great and there are a ton of different work outs and classes to choose from. That aside; not impressed. Food is below par and the “noise pollution” is horrific. We are staying at one of the nice villas and I’m writing this review by the pool at 10:30 in the morning. It’s like being at a 80’s disco with the bass thumbing loudly in your ear. This is 500m away from the resort’s workout areas mind you. Forget about quiet time reading a book or let alone having a conversation. Turn the volume down and we can add another 1,5 star to the review.

Receptionist maakte uitspraak bij aankomst helemaal waar toen hij zei dat we de best gelegen villa (#4) kregen.. en echt, een wauw factor met ons mooie zicht op de zonopkomst achter de golfbaan. Zowel bij opstaan en voor naar bed gaan een duik kunnen nemen in 'ons' heerlijke zwembad.. en dan vergeet ik bijna de mooie en ruime kamers. We voelden ons meer dan thuis op het resort. Na het sporten met zo een goed voldaan gevoel bij zwembad gaan liggen. En aqua showtime met Madonna (Andrew)... gewéldig, naast ook alle andere goede instructeurs natuurlijk. Niks moet, alles mag en op eigen niveau voor ieder wat wils. Horeca, van buffet, Bodega, lekkere coctails, foodtruck met proeverijen bevielen ons goed. Huurauto (cabrio) en ook festival San Pedro in naast gelegen dorp waren nog onze leuke extraatjes. Kortom een heel dikke aanrader voor een niet saaie vakantie!
