About this property

Our condo has a fantastic location and stunning views of the Caribbean Ocean, as it is a spacious Oceanside property where you have the convenience of our local beach, access the downtown area (typical Mexican restaurants, grocery stores, bars, etc), be within a 5 minutes walk of the Isla Mujeres ferry terminal and have all the Hotel Zone attractions (hotels, restaurants, Wet-n-Wild, ferries, etc) within a short drive. You can have the best of what Cancun has to offer for every taste within 10 to 20 minutes from your vacation home!

The condo is part of "Amara" development. In Amara you will find beautiful gardens, BBQ areas, a fantastic big pool area by the sea, a wonderful palapa in the pool and the beach.

The condo is a very spacious (130 m2 = 1,400 sqr feet) with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. We also have a TV area, dining room and living room, all with a great views of the ocean. One of our favorites areas of the condo is our big terrace (14 m2 = 150 sqr feet) with an incredible view (as you can see from some of the photos and read from our reviews) of the Caribbean Ocean, Isla Mujeres and Cancun’s Hotel Zone (we never get tired of having a morning coffee or an afternoon glass of wine with this view).

When you rent our condo we will provide you with everything you need for your daily experience: towels, sheets, dishes, glasses, cups, cutlery, etc. We also have washing and drying machines to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Security in the complex is very good as we have a private security team working on-site 24 hours a day. Regarding groceries, we have a convenience store just across the street and a Walmart grocery (named Superama, very much like a Publix in the USA) within a 5 minute drive.

Our property manager will make checking in and checking out a very easy experience and can assist you with questions or needs you could have during your stay with us.

We really think we can offer you a great experience, with a fantastic location in a brand new complex at a very affordable price. You can take a look at our reviews, people that have stayed with us have been very happy.

Families are very welcomed at our condo, with children of any age. For adult only groups (no parents in the grouo), due to our building's bylaws we have a 25+ year restriction regarding all-adult groups. This is a nonsmoking property.

We are the happy owners of this condo in Cancun and another one in Playa (VRBO property #693328, check our great reviews!)

Sehr schöne Aussicht aber Appartement im schlechten Zustand

Das Appartement ist groß und hat eine tolle Aussicht allerdings ist es im sehr schlechten Zustand und muss dringend renoviert werden. Der Herd war sehr schmutzig voller Fettflecken und Pfannen und Töpfe gehören entsorgt. Kein einziges Willkommensgeschenk.

Worst VRBO we ever stayed at

Where do I begin? Our stay was close to being a nightmare. Every day it was something else. The first night we showered and the water stunk. It took us 5 to 10 minutes to get hot water while we were there and then halfway through the shower the water would be cold. The kitchen was greasy and the cooking ware had dry food on it. We had a smidge of salt and no pepper but we hesitated to use it anyway because the shakers were so dirty. One morning there was a pool of water at the entrance to the master bedroom. We couldn’t figure out where the water had come from because it was in the middle of no water source. We left for a few hours and came back to find three people cleaning up the water. Then we had no water at all for a few hours. The showers definitely needed to be recaulked and one of the fixtures fell off when we were trying to use the shower. The microwave was in the dining room which was quite inconvenient and the mop and bucket and other cleaning utensils were in a corner of the kitchen. There was an no curtain or anything to hide them they just were right out in the open. The dish strainer was covered in water residue as was the counter and some food was in it also. We actually ended up buying a new pan to make breakfast in. After the water incident we tried to get a hold of the property manager who had said she was going to be coming over that evening but she never came and we were unable to reach her by phone for the remainder of our stay. You need to be aware that if you want to watch TV but do not speak Spanish you’re out of luck. The lightbulb in the master bathroom with burnt out and the hairdryer in the master bathroom was broken. We left two days early and stayed in a hotel. . this is not a place that you would enjoy staying at in the conditions that we experienced.

DON'T RENT THIS PLACE... IT'S DISGUSTING

I've stayed in several short-stay rentals. I usually choose the cheaper places because I prefer to spend my money on excursions. So, I'm not surprised when the place that I rent is a little outdated... but this place was filthy and infested with ants. There also was no hot water in either of the bathrooms. All of the walls were white and dirty. The glass shower door were so filthy that you couldn't see through them and the shower floors were slimey. The blue dish drain in the picture is covered in mildew and the utensils had food caked on them. I wish this review allowed me to post pictures because I took several. DON'T RENT THIS PLACE!!!

Excellent Place

I really recommend this place. I give it a 5 stars because I had no issues at all with the condo. Pool was very clean and pool water temperature was great. We enjoyed the pool every night and happy it closed at 11pm. Ultramar Ferry was like 5 min walk from the condo. Puerto Santo restaurant is a great place to eat. Bego was very helpful and was able to answer all my questions and concerns and will reply back quick. I will definitely be staying here again.

Wonderful view and nice pool area

We loved how clean the place was and how fast the property manager answered when we had a question. The gardens and the pool area were also very nice. We had kids with us so it was a little frustrating when we found out that we couldn’t have inflatables in the pool (it was almost empty most of the time!). We couldn’t use the gym although the listing offered the gym as one of its perks (the manager explained that this was a new rule). The convenience store right across the street from the condo came in handy since there is not a lot to walk to... we didn’t rent a car but public transportation and taxis made it easier. Was also great to have the boat to Isla Mujeres so close. Overall, we had a nice experience and the cost/benefit was fair.

Third time staying there and very disappointed!!!

This place used to be very nice 5 years ago but it is a mismanaged s*** hole now. First off there is no spraying for mosquitoes and they will eat you alive inside your condo or out. Second this place has more rules than a convent!!! Security will not let you play with any beach ball or play any kind of music by the pool. The condo me and my family ( total of 11 people) had ants inside rooms. There was also a natural gas leak that some residents did not have gas for a couple of days. The pool looked like they barely serviced it!! All in all. I will stop recommending this place and will be my last time staying there. I was told by a couple of security guards that some owners that reside there don’t really like them renting out to VRBO. Don’t spend your time or money on this place. There are very similar prices even in the hotel zone.

Enjoyed our stay!

Great location and accommodations! We were 4 ladies enjoying a short vacation and I truly appreciated the security at this condo. Security at the front gate and security in the building where the condo was located. The grounds were beautiful and so was the pool. It was nice having a bar/cafe right by the pool and the restaurant just a few steps down the beach was wonderful! The condo itself had everything you need for a great stay and the view was wonderful. This place is not located in the Hotel district which I enjoyed because of the peace and quiet. The ferry was just a couple block from the condo, comfortable walking distance which was great since we went to the island for a day trip. Overall, we enjoyed our stay!

Perfect setting for what we were looking for!

We had a great experience here. The condo itself was roomy and clean. Directions and information ahead of time was helpful in getting to the place from the airport. Bego was there to assist us and let us in. The complex is a good size, which made it easy and personable. We liked the location as were wanted a more authentic stay (away from all the tourists). We were able to enjoy close restaurants and a quick walk to the ferry for Isla Mujeres. The security people were friendly. We enjoyed the pool and the workout room, as well as our deck. The restaurant on site wasn't the greatest, and we did wish they served breakfast, but it was something. Thanks for a great stay!

Nice large clean place with nice views

Nice large clean condo with nice views of the property and ocean. The condo is in a secure condo community, large beautiful pool, cabana, on site restaurants. Large deck with great view. The location is approximately 15 miles from Cancun which is not a problem is you have a car. Direct route on major roads. Wal-Mart supermarket is a mile away. The only problem with the condo was the degrees of the hot water. We wanted it hotter so they turned up the water heater. The only additional problem was the lack of hot water in the kitchen unless you first turn on the hot water in the guest first. We reported the problem. Lorena was very nice and accommodating. This was a good value unless you want to be on hotel zone. Very safe, substantial security.

Beautiful ocean front property!

We enjoyed our stay at Amara Condos. Bego was very accommodating and friendly. As mentioned in previous posts, be sure to bring your own shampoo and conditioner. In addition, if you wish to do any laundry, be sure to bring some detergent packets or be prepared to buy some at the market. Unfortunately for us, we had 4 straight days of rain due to a tropical storm, but that was a unique experience in and of itself. We enjoyed looking out to the ocean and were happy with our stay. The bar staff were great and really friendly. The beach is not really a beach. It seems like sand is poured on cement, but the pool is amazing. If it were better weather, we would have used it much more! It would be nice to have a rack for hand towels in the bathrooms and a rack or shelf in the shower so that you do not have to put items on the floor. The master bathroom shower was clogged. I was quickly standing in a large puddle of water, but my husband was able to clear it on our 2nd day.

Good Value

The condo was very spacious but needed attention. The furnishings were a bit worn: vanity trim falling off, shower scum apparent, cracked dishes. The price was very good so if you are able to overlook these issues then it is a great place to stay. The exterior of the property was well maintained.

Perfect home away from home

What a great place to call home for the week. The space was so nice(even tho' there were just two of us) and sitting on the balcony in the morning to watch the sunrises, the ferries go back and forth and listen to the quiet....and at the end of the day, so relaxing. Pool area was very nice but we were disappointed with the beach....so much seaweed and so rocky. We did lots of walking, took the ferry to Isla Mujerus, and ate a great meals at Mandinga and Pik Nik. We would definitely come back and would recommend this place to our friends. Thank you Lorena and Humberto for your communication too.

A nice place

The apartment is a good location with a great view from the living room. The complex has a very big and beautiful pool by the beach. It has a small café by the pool for drinks and food also. There is also a nice seafood restaurant on the beach next to the complex It is next to a port where you can take a ferry to Mujeres island. One drawback is the mattress in the master bedroom is very soft, not good for people like me who has back pain.

O imóvel é muito confortável, espaçoso e aconchegante. Tem tudo o que precisa para a temporada. Também é organizado, chegamos no condomínio e já estava autorizada a nossa entrada possuindo o nome dos hospedes. O atendimento do responsável pelo imóvel é muito gentil, prestativo e disponível. Como o imóvel está localizado perto de um porto, a praia não oferece condições de banho, mas o acesso a linhas de ônibus é excelente, com facilidade pode chegar as praias, mercados, etc., rapidamente. Os proprietários estiveram disponíveis para esclarecer as dúvidas sobre o imóvel e o pagamento do aluguel ocorreu dentro do contratado.

Awesome property and service.

An excellent place to stay if you love to visit Isla Mujeres and want to be away from hotel zone, however its a quick 10 minute cab ride over to that side. We walked over to the ferry twice in our stay and LOVED the ability to easily get to Isla Mujeres . The condo is clean and spacious and the AC was a godsend in the hot summertime. I loved the view and the pool and the restaurant. Humberto and Lorena are gracious and impeccable in service towards their guests.

About the host

Hosted by Lorena

We are a family of 5 who love Cancun and the Riviera Maya area. We like everything from a fun day at the beach, exploring new destinations, going back to our favorite spots (we love Isla Mujeres!) and just relaxing at our fantastic terrace with great views of the gorgeous Caribbean Ocean.

We love to have people staying at our condo and sharing our little piece of paradise. We will be happy to share our knowledge about the area and try to make you feel right at home.

Why they chose this property

Amara condos is conveniently located in an oceanfront development (Puerta del Mar) in the downtown area. This very centric location allows for everything from snorkeling to fish taco hunting within a 10 to 20 minute drive. The property has an amazing pool area, beautiful gardens, a private beach and fitness center.

So you can either spend your days without going out or go to any top Cancun destination (both touristy as well as very local).

What makes this property unique

Waking up and having your coffee on the terrace with an amazing view of the Caribbean Ocean and Cancun's Hotel Zone is worth the trip.
