House Hunters International Season 135 Episode 23 Rebooting in Playa del Carmen

In this episode of House Hunters International, a couple from the United States seeks a fresh start in the vibrant Mexican coastal city of Playa del Carmen. After living in a small town for most of their lives, they feel the need to reboot and experience a new culture, cuisine and way of living.

The couple's budget for their new home is $300,000. They are looking for a spacious three-bedroom, two-bath house with plenty of outdoor living space and easy access to the beach. They want a modern design that fits their active lifestyle, complete with a pool and room for entertaining friends and family.

Their real estate agent shows them three options. The first is a large contemporary house in a gated community with access to a tennis court, swimming pool and clubhouse. It has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious outdoor area with a pool. The house is within walking distance to shops and restaurants. The price is $299,000, which is at the top end of their budget.

The second option is a two-story house in the heart of the city. It has three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms and a rooftop terrace with stunning views of the ocean. The location is prime, within walking distance to the beach and shopping. The house is not as modern as they prefer, but it has lots of character with Mexican décor and details. The price is $275,000, which may offer them some financial flexibility to make renovations.

Lastly, the couple is shown a spacious ground floor condo with two bedrooms and two baths in a beautiful complex that resembles a tropical resort. It has multiple pools, hot tubs, a gym, and is within walking distance to the beach. The condo has modern design, high ceilings, and a large open living area with outdoor access. The condo's price is $265,000, providing the couple with extra money for furniture, decorations and tweaks.

After surveying each of the three properties, the couple deliberates over their decision. While the gated community house offers them more security and amenities, the city location draws them in as it's closer to the beach and entertainment options. However, it's the ground floor condo that ultimately fits their needs and budget. They love the atmosphere of the resort-style complex, the modern design of the condo, and its accessibility to the beach. The couple is excited to begin the next chapter of their lives in Playa del Carmen and their reboot is looking to be the perfect start.

This episode of House Hunters International serves as a testament to the allure of Playa del Carmen as a favorite destination for those seeking a rejuvenating change of scenery. With its vibrant culinary and nightlife scene, impeccable beaches, and proximity to the ruins of Tulum, it’s the place where one can kick back and relax in a setting that is consistently stunning.
