A CASE FROM OUR OPERATION
A two-bedroom apartment on 10th Avenue, without a beach club, and with one bedroom that could only fit a double bed. We furnished it to our specifications with COMPITE.
We'll show you during the call which design decisions made all the difference in such a small space. View the listing on Airbnb
THE STARTING POINT
In many developments, there are 30 or 40 apartments with the same floor plan as yours. If yours looks just like the others, guests will simply compare prices, and there will always be someone willing to charge less.
After the living room, dining room, and bedrooms come the televisions, the fully equipped kitchen, the linens, the lighting, the decor, and the assembly. Someone has to receive and assemble each piece, and almost no furniture quote takes this into account.
Comparing suppliers, coordinating deliveries, and finding someone to assemble the furniture separately delays the first move-in. That's why we consolidate the entire process into a single project.
WHAT ALMOST NO ONE INCLUDES
We learned these tips by serving more than 2,000 guests in Playa del Carmen. There are many more, and each one depends on the type of guest your apartment will be hosting.
Couples rarely want to watch the same thing. Having one TV in the living room and another in the bedroom changes the whole experience of the stay.
In monthly rentals, electricity is usually billed separately, so guests open the windows to air out the room. Without window screens, they often don't book the place.
Digital nomads who arrive during the off-season sleep better with less light, and the blinds let in too much.
DO YOU ALREADY HAVE THE DEVELOPER'S LIST?
We review it based on everything Playa del Carmen guests request, according to their profile and the season, and we'll explain what we would change in your case.
THIS IS WHAT A COMPETE PROJECT LOOKS LIKE
Each project has its own identity based on the guest it will be hosting. Why we choose these pieces in each case is part of what we’ll discuss with you during our call.

WHAT'S INCLUDED
We handle the entire process of getting your apartment ready, from start to finish. A single person is responsible for every stage, from the design concept to the final details before the photo shoot.
The COMPITE method is based on what we've learned from serving more than 2,000 guests: which layouts work best, which amenities they request, and which materials can withstand the heavy use associated with vacation rentals.
A unique identity for your apartment, designed to make it stand out in guests' minds among the other options in the building.
You visit and approve each space before a single item is purchased.
Furniture, televisions, a fully equipped kitchen, appliances, lighting, and accessories.
We seek the best combination of design, quality, durability, and price for a property that will welcome guests year-round.
We coordinate every order and every delivery until it reaches the apartment.
We inspect each item upon receipt and handle any replacements with the supplier.
Furniture, televisions, curtains, and lighting, installed by our team.
The composition of each space is what makes your photos stand out from those in the neighboring ad.
From day one, you'll know when your first guest is expected to arrive.
You don't have to coordinate with suppliers, installers, or delivery services.
BEFORE YOU DECIDE
It’s usually delivered within a few days, but in our experience, it’s more expensive than it seems, doesn’t hold up well to heavy use, and leaves the apartment looking just like the others in the building. If you’ve already rented it, we’ll use that list as a starting point and let you know what it needs to be listed on Airbnb.
If you already have a quote for furniture, add in the decor, TVs, kitchen, linens, and installation. The total usually ends up being closer than it seems—with the difference that at COMPITE, everything is taken care of without you having to coordinate with anyone.

It also lacks features that Airbnb requires. If you’ve already signed up for it, we’ll use that list as a starting point and let you know what’s missing.
