Why are the streets so empty?
Portland is one of the worst cities I lived. I have lived many major cities in States Many people in Oregon are very self-centered, uneducated, self rightness attitude and no self-awareness. They park in the places to block at other traffics. I even saw a guy stopped at the middle of highway to watch accident (No joking). Most people drive very slow. In my semiconductor company, most people looked very depressed, sad, quiet. It was a very depressing city. I am very happy to work at different state now!
Just arrived to playa and I go through la organica everyday. Going to try it now.
Great work. I love karaoke and the 2nd apt, please by all means do more vids like this one... Thanks.
@@gregorymurphy6841 thanks for the feedback my friend! Always on the hunt for sweet deals on apartments so.. will do! 😎☀️🏝️
why give the price in the end, this Clown is grifting for views, tell me the price and if its not in my range Im out.
Love these tour videos- much appreciated!
My pleasure Cody! Thanks for watching 😎☀️🏝️
Hi: Didn't notice any A/C splits in Apartment #1. Is it equipped with A/C? Also like your camouflage hat, did You buy that in Mexico or in the States?
I believe there’s an ac unit in both bedrooms and the living/dining area in apt #1!
Dies every apartment have access to the roof top??
For apartment 1 yes. The pool access is for all units. For number 2 that is just for that unit! Great question and thanks for watching 🏝️😎☀️❤️
@ my guy!! Thanks for the quick response! Have you lived in other states/ cities in Mexico??
Coral Dentist has been me and my husbands dentist for 3 years. Love them!
Awesome!! Yes they’re fantastic over there and will definitely be back for another cleaning in about 5 months 😃
Unit 2 near mamitas.. possible to remove over off the beds in the double bed bedroom? Will they be cleaning up the rooftop, repair spa? Great videos thank SO much!
They will not be bringing that tub on the roof back into commission unfortunately but if I rented that place I’d put a standalone tub up there for ice baths 🥶😎☀️. I would ask when negotiating the contracts about the mattress situation. They are unacceptable imo for move-in. A new pillow top is only like $5,000mxn… maybe they could take that off the deposit if you buy it. Thanks for watching!
#2. I know the are VERY well how can we communicate privately. Senior citizen with car well established. LONG lease in retirement. Please respond
If you use Instagram you can message me privately @theropemonster
That Terrace (Apt #1) makes that place!!!! <3
Absolutely!! The fact that they even put in a small bathroom up there really makes it! Could easily just spend the day up there and hit the pool whenever you get too hot! Thanks for watching 😎☀️🏝️❤️
Jimi the Hobo is the best in that area.
Definitely Dronaldo ✊🏾🤎🇲🇽
Yesss Dronaldo for the win 🥇😎✈️
Ahhh, if I were moving down there soon I'd defo snatch that 2nd one off the market! I'm assuming that since they are doing work in the actual apartment that they'll do some on its roof top as well?
Yes Jiji that spot was hard for me to turn down!! The location is insane and that kitchen is massive… they don’t make em like that in the new buildings! And yes indeed they will at least clean up the roof… I’m hoping they’ll even do an outdoor dining/seating setup but we shall see! Either way, sweet deal and sweet place to get some full body sun 😜😎🏝️☀️❤️
I know these aren't your fave vids to do friend, but I personally SO appreciate them!! Thanks for the footwork 🤗.
@@PatriciaECodingOver40 so glad you appreciate them!! Thanks for watching 😎☀️🏝️❤️
I still think of the street as 39th not Chavez, it throws off the numbering going from 38 to 40th
No doubt, same here!
Thank you for the information and all the work you do providing for us .
My pleasure! And thank YOU my friend for your ongoing support of the channel! 😎🏝️☀️❤️
Best video yet!! Thank you! Both are great, the second one is awesome. Location is everything. How did you find them???
Thanks Kirk! Great question!! I found the one on 90th by what’s app messaging about a different apartment… when I reached out wanting to see the original one, he told me it was rented but that he had a different one to show me! As far as apartment #2.. my old neighbor was apartment hunting and I asked her to keep an eye out for me… she put me in contact with the manager of that one. Thanks for watching 😎☀️🏝️
I noticed no oven is that common
Yes ovens are quite uncommon in (older buildings and houses) Mexico but some of the newer buildings definitely have them! A lot of Mexicans I’ve known, if they do have an oven, just use it for storage 😅😅. Thanks for the great question Randy and checking out the video! ❤️☀️🏝️😎
😂@@theropemonster
Love these videos. We missed you when we were there a few months ago.
Hope you guys make it back soon!! Thanks for checking out the video 😎🏝️☀️❤️
Hey RopeMonster, more good stuff from you. We are currently in a studio here in Playa on 20th near the plaza. There is a pool right outside our door with a private sitting area all on the ground floor. It's short term at 16500. You found some nice examples to show what else could be had in the price range. Thanks for what you do, as always. You are appreciated ❤
A genuine thanks for your kind words, feedback, and ongoing support of the channel my friend!! Glad you found the video interesting! How’s the noise level where you guys are currently? I was on 15, a couple blocks from CTM for a while and it was a little much… especially on Sundays with that market! ATB 😎☀️🏝️
It has been pretty quiet mostly as far as traffic. This week has been a little louder with the Christmas events going on in the plaza which redirects traffic to our street, 6nte. If you haven't checked out the little plaza over here, i think you may like a short visit. Food vendors are rollin about 7 to 8pm but they are going into the night to about 12. And thank you for always responding in kind. I'm sure you have plenty of others to respond to as well, maybe a part of UA-cam people don't count on.
@ I love that plaza over there and I’m definitely overdue for a visit!! I bought a really cool red coral necklace over there about a year ago from one of the vendors! Thanks for the update on the goings on over that way 😎
Great video. Good to understand 2 apartment pricing examples in 2 different geographies. Keep filming…🎥🎬
Thanks for the feedback Mike!! 🏝️😎
@@theropemonster Hey, how about a video to inspire people NOT eat on 5th to get them off the beaten path, and in to the real PDC to expand their minds a little. There’s lots of local businesses that could benefit from a little more business that I’m sure are equal or better than the larger restaurants on 5th. Over to you….👍
I find this content extremely interesting although we are many yrs from moving but we could both see ourselves living in Playa someday! Thank you Ropemonster!
Why not move now? Get out the slave race and live
Awesome!! That was a lot of the point of this video… to show it can be done in the future and for less than one might think!
Saludos we are the couple eating behind you delicious food great video new followers to your channel😊😊
Allí en Birria De La 30, verdad?! Thank you guys for checking out the video and subscribing! Welcome to the channel 😎🏝️☀️❤️ 🌮
Great info! The second place has so much potential it is really great space...the club would be an issue for many but not for everyone...thanks again for keeping us up on whats happening in Playa!...viv
Thanks Viv! I really appreciate the feedback and am glad you enjoyed the content! 🏝️☀️😎
Haha wow that private terasse on the one on 90th is huge, as big as the appartment you could put a jacusy table for 6 😅 Again great video make us think of doing 6 months 🤣🌞
It’s true, that terrace is massive!! Tons of potential. Thanks for checking out the video! 🏝️☀️❤️😎
Great production Great Thanks. My hart bleads
Portland is a shit hole. As a lifelong resident and mega fan , you need to get with people who know. Not much has gotten better. The junkies have just moved into the RESIDENTIAL areas due to the heat of law enforcement. Also, the "city like any other city" thing is bullshit. Portland has always been acceptional and unique. So by saying that, he clearly has 0 clue.
Yea I’ve noticed the junkies spreading out like a plague. Saw a lot of them in Tigard which was crazy to see. Thanks for sharing
Dear Rookies...with water shoes or flippers you can use flippers or wear water shoes. No biggy and I know a I live in Cozumel
Excellent video cannot wait to have the fish tacos! Do you know what they charge for a day pass to your gym? Looks like a nice place...resort has some gym equipment but would be nice to hit a real gym a few times on our vacation! Thanks Ropemonster!
Those fried tuna tacos at Ceviche Corazón are insane!! I had them 3 times last week 😜. I believe Evolve charges $300mxn for a day pass. Thanks for checking out the video my friend 🏝️❤️☀️😎
Cannot beat that price for the amount of food 4sure! That's not terrible for a day pass. Some places here in Minnesota are higher.. Small price to keep the gains 💪!!! Thanks again Ropemonster! Take care!
Ok for clickbait BUT there are plenty of beaches here and they are gorgeious. Mamitas is overrated and touristy. Those of us that live here know exactly where to go, and it is precisely why we live here.
I think a lot of people who live there like Mamitas and 38… I still prefer Playa 72 and the spots north of Punta Esmeralda and south of Playacar though but depends on what mood I’m in. As far as the “clickbait”.. welp… the subject was the beach at Calle 14… and there’s literally no beach there... unless you count sandbags 😜. Thanks for watching ❤️🏝️☀️😎
@@theropemonster Those that know definitely don't go to 14....I lived around the corner from Mamitas for about a year. It's nice and convenient but that's about it. There are better beaches in Playa though. As for teh clickbait of course if you post about 'eroded beaches' people are gonna click. lol just a fact
@ read the title lol… “coming to Playa on Vacation…?” Sound like a video for people who live full time in Playa? 😅😅😅
Born and raised in Eastern North Carolina, moved to the southwest hills of Portland at 11 years of age.....moved to the CSRA area of South Carolina at the age of 25 in 1988. It took decades too recover from the most extreme case of "homesickness" in human history for the city of roses! When I die bury my body in the carolinas.....but bury my ❤ in Portland Ore.
Hi, I love your videos and how you cover the status of the beaches. Planning on going to Playa end of February for the first time maybe staying at Grand Hyatt. Can you do a video of the beach in front of that hotel and its surroundings? The reviews have complains there's constant music playing next to that hotel and not sure if there beach front is any good.
Hi, I’m glad you like the content! I believe the last scene of this video was actually filmed in front of the Grand Hyatt, just south of Mamitas! As far as the loud music… that comes from one particular club just north of the Grand Hyatt, but hasn’t been an issue as of late because they’ve been closed. The beach in that area is ample but there’s a little bit of sargassum washing up lately! I’m sure I’ll do another video in that area before your trip though. Thanks for watching 😎🏝️☀️
I'll be at Sandos Playacar at the beginning of January. It will be my first trip to Mexico.
Awesome! That’s a great place to start and such a gorgeous beach down there. Thanks for checking out the video 🏝️😎☀️
Portland was pretty bad until the last year they started cleaning things up and outlawing substances that should be outlawed which made it so you don’t see people openly doing hardcore substances in the open. Outlawed daytime camping which helped with tents. So it’s sort of making its way back but it’s still got a ways to go
So if you move from the US or Europe you’re an ‘expat’ and if you move from somewhere else to these places you’re an immigrant? 😂
I see your point!
i attend allot of events downtown with the wife and the one thing im scared of is leaving my vehicle in some parking lot..take the Max and you have to deal with whackos but better than a smashed window .other than that its slowly improving
That is super reasonable! And looked delicious!
Totally worth it!! I’ll be going back for more soon 🥩🏝️😎
@theropemonster it's a must for a weight training program!
Great video Sir! We have been coming to PDC for 3yrs now for winter vacation staying at The Reef Coco beach last 2 so very familiar territory! We love the area but never ventured down that far on the beach. Thank you for your efforts we will definitely have to venture further. Possibly see you end of January. Thanks again!
Yes those beaches are stunning and further south still there are some pristine spots as well! Hope to see you guys around town! Happy travels 😎🏝️❤️☀️
@theropemonster Thank you Sir! My wife is stoked for La Organica pancakes now! She trys to eat mostly Organic so I am sure we will be going there a few times! Could catch you there and buy you a meal! Best wishes
Poncho !!!
That’s a great drone name for sure!! 🇲🇽😎🏝️
Thank you Sir!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching 🥞😎🏝️☀️
What is the best month to go? I want dry and hot weather
Probably Feb-April around the time this was filmed. Thanks for checking out the video 😎🏝️☀️
Hello there nice video 📹saludos carnal
Gracias Angel 😎❤️🏝️☀️
Thanks!!! You said, “things change”. The beaches come and go? Erode and restore? I never lived on the beach.
Yes Kirk it does indeed change from storm to storm, week to week and month to month. Here moreso than other coastal places I’ve lived. Thanks for checking out the video 😎🏝️☀️
Great videos as always, how about naming the drone P dronie diddy Combes, cause it films playa like diddy used to film his parties 😂😂
Hahaha good one for sure!! It’s on the list 😅😅😎☀️🏝️
Hey bro! Is that restaurant across the street from the club?
Hey! It’s actually on 10th right next to Chedraui. You might be thinking of Bovinos across from Coco Bongo Club maybe 🤔. Thanks for checking out the video 🥩😎🏝️
We will be there Monday-Saturday this coming week. Thanks for the information.
My pleasure! Thanks for checking out the content and safe travels! 😎🏝️☀️
Hey Dan, another excellent & informative video. Folks need to enjoy Mamitas and that great beach while they can, as unfortunately, next year, Mamitas Beach Club will be torn down & replaced with a new condo project called ZONNA. No bueno for us beach walkers, with similar disruption a few years ago next to Martina Beach Club with IT Beach Condos built in front of a couple of my condos.
Yes that’s such sad news but thanks for sharing that here so people are aware, the clock is ticking and nothing stays the same. Thanks for checking out the video my friend 😎🏝️☀️
Wow! What a great video. Thank you so much!! Sad to see the beach eroded, but still going to have a great time. My wife and I got married at El Taj in 2012. Havent been back to Playa since. Going to be an awesome trip! I owe ya a taco and cerveca. Thanks again brother. Keep movin!
Beautiful that you guys are coming back to where it all began!! Really glad you enjoyed the video and thanks again for inspiring me to do this one! ❤️🏝️😎☀️
