Wonderful place to stay! The beach here is very nice with good snorkling.We have been coming to this condo complex for over 10 years. This was our first time in this unit. We have always rented a car - it is a little remote.
Claudio’s place was perfect. Everything we imagined and more. Beautiful beach and the ocean is so warm and clear! Bed was comfortable and place was stocked with kitchen essentials. We used the BBQ most nights.

This property is quite old and dingy, the sheets and towels were clean and new and the beds made well. Pillows new. Kitchen was fine but dishes were very grimy. Air conditioning worked great! Pool and ocean access were amazing. Absolutely stunning snorkelling right out the door. Sadly the resort next door is creating a terrible atmosphere for guests as they are currently in full demo/reno mode. Loud construction noise everyday.
The unit doesn’t have the hammock or swing chair that are pictured in the ad.
The owner is responsive kind and reasonable. We enjoyed our interactions with him. Overall it’s not bad value for money but you definitely need a car if you’re staying here. It’s quiet and remote. Good restaurant down the beach 3 min.

All went well. We enjoyed daily walks and reading books and snorkling
Claudio's little slice of heaven on the beach was perfect for my husband and I's 2 week holiday. The convenience of having a pool and the ocean just a few steps from the condo was simply wonderful! We'd recommend staying here to anyone looking for a nice little spot to chill by the beach, cook your own meals, or not and head to the very close Tulum, Playa del Carmen and Puerto Aventuras for the day or to take in some activities, shopping and restaurants too.
We didn’t want to stay at a resort, we wanted something more private with the ocean at our feet and this condo was just what we were looking for. We were there for a week and in days we didn’t feel like going outside we still got to enjoy the beautiful view of the ocean from the living room. I really enjoyed the condo, the space was just enough for 2 people. It was clean and very well stocked with everything we needed to cook at home. Would definitely book again.

Great getaway!
The location of this condo was great. It was awesome being right on the beach! Claudio stayed in close communication with us, and I only have great things to say about the condo and our experience. As a family of 4, we felt that the condo provided enough room to accommodate all of our needs. (Even when the tropical storms moved in and we had to exit the beach.) What a wonderful long weekend trip! Thanks again!
We had an amazing stay at this property! The description was 100% accurate and the host was great at communicating and giving information and recommendations. It was so easy to get around with the collectivo to akumal beach, publeo, tulum, playa del Carmen. The bikini beach bar, a 2 min walk down the beach had great staff, food and drinks. We had a pool and the beach at our front door. Only thing that could have been better was the bed, we had everything we needed and loved the location. We definitely recommend! Thank so much for everything Claudio !
We had a great time at Claudio’s little piece of paradise off the beach. You could not ask to be so close to the warm clear Caribbean waters that the Maya Rivera is known for . The resorts have to tried to buy out all the properties in the area. Glad you didn’t sell out ,keep this little gem for people to enjoy. Great for couples by who probably are not going to be staying in the condo all day anyhow. If u still wanted to it has everything u need to just lounge in the condo or patio .
The location of this property is everything we expected!! The property was clean and steps from the pool and ocean. The only negative feedback I have is the water pressure and hot water for the shower - other than that it was perfect! Having the patio table and chairs along with the lounges outside was a plus since we were out there every morning drinking our coffee or just laying in the sun. People were jealous that we had a whole setup on the patio - something the resort owned condos do not have.
We also enjoyed taking care of the cats - one particularly stayed with us our whole visit.
Thank you for sharing your space with us - we definitely enjoyed our time there.
The small condo was very cute and comfortable. The photos are accurate. The kitchen is very well stocked and the bed and couches were comfortable.
It was a little odd being surrounded by the all-inclusive folks. I went from feeling very smug and cool because our place was affordable, right smack on the beach, and we had our own private patio to feeling like the red-headed stepchild who wasn't invited to the party. It was interesting. As far as I could tell, most of the original condos are part of the resort, including most in our building.
All in all, the place was very nice and it comes with its own condo cat.
As it being our first time staying somewhere other than an all inclusive resort we were so glad we chose Claudio’s Humble on the beach condo. Right from the start the communication was excellent and questions answered quickly. The checkin procedure as well as information regarding location, directions, transportation to and from Cancun airport, tips on grocery shopping etc was very well communicated and appreciated. Upon our arrival we found the condo inside and out exactly as we had seen it advertised on VRBO. Just steps to the beach and to the pool you couldn’t ask for anything better. The condo was clean and had all the amenities you would require during your stay. With it being the time of year for sargassum the workers did an excellent job of removing it from the beachfront. White sandy beach, clear water and lots of tropical life to enjoy with the snorkelling gear provided.If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing vacation we would definitely recommend staying here. We will definitely return again.

Great communication with the owner, but the property definitely needs some work.
While the owner was responsive in all communications, there were two major issues that we had with this property.
1. For the first 4 days in the unit we had to take showers in a unit 3 doors down the hall, as the shower and our unit and hot water were not functioning.
2. On the 5th day of our stay someone accessed the locked unit, and stole my wallet which contained a substantial amount of money along with all of my IDs and credit cards.

Response from VrboOwner on 17 December 2023
HOT WATER PROBLEM:
It was most unfortunate that the tankless heater got clogged with the excessive calcium in the water in the area restricting the flow of water, reducing the pressure and not allowing the heater to ignite. In spite that I had been told, many times, that a pressure pump for the hot water was not necessary, I had one installed and that solved the problem. To compensate for the fact of having to take showers for 4 days in the unit just next door and as per the guests’ request, I compensated them with a 20% discount for $207.80 that I sent them through Zelle. I am surprised the guests do not mention that on their review.
WALLET:
I have been renting the unit for about 10 years and I have never, ever had anything stolen missing from the unit.
It is most unfortunate that the guests decided not to put their valuable belongings inside the safety box provided when leaving the condo.
The guests indicated that there were no signs of forced entry to the unit which makes me believe that it is possible that he may have lost the wallet somewhere else.
I am very sorry about your eventful stay at the property.

Not as great as we’d hoped
Maybe it was just us but this unit didn’t captivate us like it did others that have stayed there in the past. The unit is very dated. Yes, there were many cooking utensil options but many of them rusted. We had issues with bugs. Yes, I realize it is the tropics but we’ve stayed in the tropics many many times (mostly in Mexico) and never had as many bug issues inside of the unit as we had here.
The beach is rocky and the pool needs maintenance. Only one restaurant (beached bikini) within walking distance. Bottom line, as bad as we wanted to like this place, it just wasn’t suited for us. And we do a fair amount of “budget” traveling.
Little hard to find but forgot to use the directions on maps I printed - my problem but Carlos answered when my husband called and directed us. Comfy bed, good AC, I had trouble adjusting hot water in shower and kitchen, no food or beer in fridge but we had stopped at chedraui and bought stuff, drinking water jugs replenished when we ran low ( that was really nice to have) shared beach with all inclusive next door - not a problem except they would reserve their lounge chairs under palapas with their towels etc..awesome opening door onto beach , nice little pool too. Nice parking spot right by door. Felt safe, raccoons did scare me one night on patio and the iguanas!! Bikini beach bar was great just a little walk to south of condo on beach. Loud music from sunscape all inclusive but only one night out of 7 so not so bad! Once we got combination to patio door lock we felt secure leaving condo to go to beach out that door Nice easy to use locked safe in closet for valuables. Hubby liked that it was on ground floor - no steps. Carlos said we wouldn’t be disappointed and no we weren’t. Very nice once we figured everything out. !!
We’ve stayed here multiple times and each and every time we grow to love it more and more! Everything you could ever need is supplied just make sure to leave behind what you don’t use for the next folks to enjoy! We used the supplied bbq almost every single day and it was fantastic! The little patio is literally on the beach, it’s heaven….we stayed for 2 weeks this time and wished we had 2 more. You’ll love this place, don’t pass it up!
