Luxury Ocean View Penthouse 50% Off For YOU!

KatyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Hands down, the best stay we’ve had on Isla. It’s important to me that a host is reachable and responsive, and Marco exceeded those expectations from start to finish. He also accommodated a last-minute change to our arrival date, and we couldn’t be more grateful. The penthouse was magical, and the rooftop views were spectacular. Plenty of space and endless amenities. Filtered, cold water was hugely appreciated. Highly recommend reserving a golf cart through Marco - it will be waiting for you at the residence when you arrive. Be sure to visit La Negrita, right down the road, for the best Al Pastor tacos you’ll ever taste. The neighbor’s dog can be a little vocal at night, so we just drowned it out with white noise. We will most definitely stay here again.

LisaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great location! Easy walkability - one block from the popular Hidalgo Ave. and just a few blocks from the beach. We rented a golf cart one day to explore the island and grab groceries. A parking space is provided at the condo. The condo was clean, comfortable, and felt safe. The host was friendly and responsive and went above and beyond to accommodate our family.

Cancun Stunning Villa w/ Private Pool & Rooftop

AndreaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Casa Madre Cancun was perfect for our bachelorette group. The team at Sunwave were super responsive and also extremely helpful in all of my questions and planning. They provided wonderful recommendations for transportation, a yacht day, and also local restaurants/nightlife. One of our favorite things from the weekend was having Chef Maria come to the villa for a private dinner on the evening we arrived to give us time to settle in without worrying about going out. The decor was so cute and it was wonderful to have a private villa all to ourselves for the weekend. The rooms were comfortable, spacious, and clean. We would definitely book again!

Modern ocean view loft

ShelbyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This was by far one of the best places we have stayed. We walked in and couldn’t believe the view. The beach was much nicer than most other beaches in the area. Blue waters. Karen was super kind and helpful and super great at responding. The directions were super clear and step by step. And we showed up early and check in was still possible which was so convient and nice! The place was clean and beautiful. She even gave us recommendations on things to do/places to eat. It’s not a very walkable location but. it definitely feels safe and the staff was very accommodating. You can take the local bus for cheap and it’s 15 minute drive. We had a wonderful time in Cancun and this loft condo was perfect for us two. Thank you Karen for being such a WONDERFUL host. Will recommend again and again. Gracias! ❤️🌴

We were a bit sceptical because the photos looked too good to be true - but we were pleasantly surprised as the place looked really like the photos and is beautiful! The rooms have beach and sea view, the condo complex has beach, swimming pool access - there are guards for the complex and it feels safe. The hosts are really friendly and always proactive, making efforts to make our stay comfortable. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stay in Cancun!

JoanaRating, 5 stars6 months ago
Very spacious place, the place was pretty with amazing views you could hear the ocean from the condo. Both pools were very nice and the hot tub inside of one room was very nice as well. The condo is not stocked with any items, water pressure in one room wasn't the best but it was still ok. Best part was the communication with the host they answered any questions I had and were fast to answer.

Loft apartment-best location in the heart of Isla

ChristineRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Behind the magical yellow door, was the best place to stay. Right off the main square, we were in the middle of it all. Walking to restaurants, shops, diving shop, grocery store, coffee shop, ferry, and beach was all a breeze. Our space made me so happy. I loved my loft room with a fabulous hammock outside. I spent many hours reading on the room. The well provided kitchen allowed us to enjoy food and drinks. We slept well and had a great stay with these fab hosts. When I messed up making coffee, someone fixed my mistake right away!

Jorge's place was just as described. Beautiful house that it makes us feel at home to our family of 4 and our two spoil furry family members. Private spaces all around the house well furnished. The Palapa is awesome, righ beside the pool filled with fresh water, also very nice, to cool off the heath. Bluetooth speaker system in the palapa area too. The a/c inside the house is a plus to enjoy yourself and have a nice sleep on the confortable beds. We have to leave the house a few days before the check out due to a family emergency. Jorge thank you so much for your understanding and help, We will definitely come back in the future. Thanks

New to the Rental Market - 2 Pools - Spectacular!

JasonRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This is an amazing location right on the beach overlooking the ocean. Plenty of space and very clean. What we didn’t realize is that the upstairs is only accessible from outside…like a private apartment, but was an amazing space with a beautiful balcony on the ocean side. The only complaint that we had was that the upper pool was advertised as heated but wasn’t. The kids still swam regardless. Overall, it was a great week in a great house. I would highly recommend staying here.

Cancun Private Pool -Beach Front - Hotel Zone

JessicaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Our group really enjoyed staying at this Airbnb for our vacation in Cancun. The Airbnb was clean, private, and well stocked. We enjoyed sitting outside, lounging by the pool, and taking advantage of the private beach that was just steps away. Daniel was very responsive before our vacation so we knew what to expect and was also responsive during our stay, even though he was on vacation himself. I will be looking to see if Daniels Airbnb is available next time I’m in Cancun. I definitely recommend this home!

Casa Armonia Amazing waterfront non smoking house

MarseaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
This place was amazing. We loved that it was right on the lagoon, a close walk to the center of the Hotel Zone, and the privacy one in the property was great. There is a plaza right in front of the property that offered multiple dining options and a gas station nearby too. The location was great for walking, and for further areas, Robin was able to provide us with a great contact for rides. The house was unique in that the lower and upper level were connected via a staircase outside, but we didn't use the downstairs so it wasn't an issue for us. The kitchen was perfect size for cooking and the primary bedroom and bathroom were amazing. We enjoyed many nights on the screened in porch and enjoyed our days by the pool and lagoon. This place would be the perfect size for our family of 8. Robin was very responsive once we arrived and helpful when we had questions. I would recommend this place as we felt safe, things were convenient, and the whole place was very peaceful and private.

BrittanyRating, 5 stars2 days ago
This home was beautiful! The pictures didn't do it justice, such a neat layout. Pool was fantastic! Beds were extremely comfortable! My only complaint was I wish there was a BBQ on the roof to make suppers. We had a small ant/mite problem in the kitchen area, We made sure to keep all items in fridge and we had no issues after the first evening. I assume it is because of the climate. The house was clean and comfortable , I would stay here again ! Planning on return next year :)

Casa Ravell, swimming pool and private terrace.

JeanineRating, 5 stars3 days ago
I stayed for a week, and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The location is beautiful, with a view of the ocean. The sound of the crashing ocean waves lulled me to sleep every night. There is a pedestrian walkway out the back, and from here it was a lovely ten minute walk to downtown and a twenty minute walk to North Beach. You will not need to rent a golf cart, which is nice. The unit has wifi and a streaming TV (Netflix and Prime), purified water, a well equipped kitchen, and good AC. The pool out back is lovely and I enjoyed relaxing in the hammock and looking at the ocean. There is only one king size bed, and the living room, although it has comfortable furniture, really doesnt have another place to sleep, so keep that in mind when booking. This place is well situated, peaceful and honey. Definitely book it!

Fantastic host! So helpful and kind and super responsive. I loved the house, it is as advertised, it is a real home in Mexico, so a few little quirks or rough edges, but if you wanted sanitized boring cookie cutter you would have stayed at a hotel. The home is comfortable and the patio is fabulous right on the water. The location is great, so close to the ferry terminal so transport around is so easy and I really felt safe in the neighborhood. Homey. I would so happily stay here again

MitchRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Our group cannot say enough wonderful things about Ana and her condo!! We were a family of 10 traveling together, so a lot of moving parts and I would say we were almost NEEDY!! Ana answered every question we had, she set us up with airport transfers, a lovely lady who came to cook for us and a private boat tour! all of the people she referred us to were so kind, on time and the prices were way better than what we would have found on our own. the condo was comfortable and clean, it had everything we needed and more and we all loved coffee on the dock in the morning until we were too hot and had to jump in!! Such a blast!! the location was walking distance to a local beach and restaurants as well as a ferry terminal. We rented cars but we stayed around town and walked quite a bit, all of us felt safe and enjoyed being emersed in the local life as opposed to a tourist pocket!! Thank you Ana for a beautiful week, we really made some great memories!!!

Your guide to Cancún

All About Cancún

Located on the northeastern corner of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, Cancún is an ever-popular destination for clubbers and beachcombers alike — but that’s not the whole story. Nature lovers will enjoy exploring beautiful tropical nature reserve Parque Kabah downtown, while history buffs have hundreds of fascinating Mayan exhibits to discover at Museo Maya de Cancún. Fresh fish abounds in this coastal paradise, whether it’s savored in simple fashion at thatched snack spots by the beach or five-star restaurants. Water sports are played alongside ancient ruins and archeological sites here, with Museo Subacuático de Arte (MUSA) home to an underwater sculpture museum to promote coral life. If Cancún’s water-borne activities aren’t enough, it’s easy to take a short boat ride to nearby uninhabited island Isla Contoy, which offers excellent birdwatching and hiking trails.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Cancún

People flock to Cancún for its pristine, sandy beaches and festive atmosphere. The area enjoys 250 days of sunshine every year, and the balmy winter climate tempts visitors looking to escape the chill in cooler countries. The ocean is warm enough for swimming and water sports all year round, but the mercury hits its highest from December to April. Be prepared for the risk of tropical storms and even hurricanes in the fall.

For sports fans, spending a fun-filled night at the ballpark with a baseball game between March and September is another great activity Cancún has to offer. The world-famous Day of the Dead festival takes place at the end of October, as families gather to celebrate and commemorate loved ones.


Top things to do in Cancún

Parque de las Palapas

When temperatures start to dip in the evenings, head to this residential neighborhood to take in some live music and get a sense of all the tasty local street food there is to try. A quiet square by day, Parque de las Palapas fills with vendors selling homemade treats, crafts, and garments made with time-honored techniques when the sun goes down.

Marquesitas

After a long sunset stroll along the shoreline, there’s nothing better than tucking into this popular local treat. Marquesitas are made by cooking a crisp, crepe-like shell, which is filled and shaped to create a snack resembling a rolled-up waffle cone. There is chocolate and cheese in the traditional version and if you’re new to marquesitas, you just may become a convert.

Museo Subacuático de Arte (MUSA)

Originally created to protect local reefs, this underwater museum draws in aquatic aficionados with exhibits for a range of abilities, with the snorkeling-only Punta Nizuc gallery, zones perfectly set up for newcomers to diving, and a glass-bottomed boat to take in the sights without getting your feet wet.
