Beautiful location
I truly loved this location. We wanted a quite area away from crowds and we got it. Very few beach walkers and no venders. Alberto was present and showed us up to our unit. We were on the top unit. There is a unit below us as well as a studio down the driveway. The unit was very clean and spacious. The kitchen is well-appointed. They had a water dispenser with large jugs and replaced as needed. Plenty of lounging furniture. The balcony had a table with 4 chairs. I would worn those with children that the spiral staircase to the second floor loft may be a hazard. For adults you must be careful when reaching the top...there are 2 beams you must go under and it's very easy to bump your head. Doable but you must be careful. I don't think there is a remedy due to the design of the unit but just be aware of those that will be sleeping in that area. There was a paddle board and two kayaks to use as well as several water toys for children and adults. We didn't use the pool due to the weather but it was kept very clean. The outdoor shower and hose was great to rinse off with. We had a housekeeper come three times for the week and he did a great job including doing the dishes. We had Chef Beto come in twice. I highly recommend having the welcome dinner. We were tired of travel and it was perfect. Very devious and plentiful! We had leftovers for days! Christina was very prompt with her responses and very accommodating. She truly wanted to please us!

Beautiful Property (with minor surprises)
This is a beautifully situated, private, and secluded casa. The entire Playa del Secreto community is secured by a guarded entrance and safely well off the main road. The beach is clean white sand with picturesque turquoise water that one can swim, boogie board or kayak. The beach is safe, private and limited to residents only - and without vendors. The penthouse suite is well situated high above the beach with stunning views through floor-to-ceiling windows or off the patio. There is a separate barbecue common table area that is well lit and available for use as well. While the listing alludes to a pool and beach area associated with the house, neighboring Playa del Secreto properties also utilize Casa Chanty for beach access and pool use. The pool area was not particularly inviting with toys and children’s items strewn about and pool is not heated which overall was not an issue as the ocean water is not cold. The penthouse itself is clearly well-designed although downstairs neighbors can be heard clearly in the morning and evening hours. The sea air is obviously hard on anything but loosening floor tiles, corroded door hardware and the like were also not anticipated. A very well-designed kitchen has also seen better days with cupboards loosening creating noise when operating. The upstairs bedroom area is accessed via a spiral staircase that upon reaching the top, a structural cross-beam greets you straight in the head ensuring that the upstairs beds are utilized solely by little ones. Overall, our experience could be summed up as good to nearly great – Alberto, Damien & Tony were great and made our visit wonderful. However, just due to the aforementioned surprises, would love to have given this site 4.5 or 4.75 stars as the surprises were not insurmountable and the location more than made up for these. It was just the expectation of something truly more that left us feeling not underwhelmed but also not overwhelmed.

Better than all-inclusive resort!
My hubby and I stayed at Palafitos over the water bungalows in Cancun in April. And while beautiful, we’d pick Casa Chanty over ANY resort. First, the location and the privacy is perfect. Far enough away from Cancun to get away from the tourist traps but a quick drive if you want to hit Cancun at any time. Second, the penthouse made us feel at home. The layout, the gathering spaces, and the incredible view led our group to gather together to just soak up the atmosphere and each other. Third, Cristina, Alberto, and Beto were all WONDERFUL communicators. I knew exactly what to expect, where to go, and who to contact with questions. They were all fantastic. PLUS, Alberto’s 3 dogs were a little piece of home when we were missing our own fur babies! They were a welcome addition to our group! Fourth - location, location, location! Rent a car and go do and see all that the area has to offer. We did. Best adventure and memories we’ve had in a long time. Puerto Morales is 10 minutes away and the restaurants and open air bars along the beach are all fantastic. PLUS, you can find all the popular tours and activities right there on the beach!! And for about 1/4 of the cost elsewhere. So give back to the locals in TIPS! Be generous because it’s the right thing to do. Fifth - all of the bedrooms have A/C and the rooms get COLD. One of the rooms has blacked out windows to reduce the heat in that room. We could have slept for DAYS in there. Except we didn’t want to miss one minute of daylight!! There is an A/C in the living room, but don’t use it! Just open the doors and TA-DA . . . Cool air blowing through the entire living area. Last, but not least - CHEF BETO. He absolutely made our vacation head and shoulders above the bungalow resort stay. EVERY. SINGLE. MEAL. We are a group of foodies. We love all kinds of food from all over the world. Beto’s creations were some of the best food we’ve ever tasted. We checked in LATE at night- around 10:30pm. We asked Beto for a welcome dinner and expected our late arrival to have ruined it. NOPE! He had everything waiting in a perfectly warm oven and ready to uncover and devour. AND WE DID! Next day, he made us breakfast and from then on, we asked if he would make us dinner every night. We had Tuna skewers, Ceviche, carnitas, wings, mole, key lime pie, flan, and so much more. Every bite was amazing. And he stocked our fridge with all the items on our list. We were absolutely in Heaven. Will be back!!

Positives : Great beach location with wonderful views day and night Spacious penthouse suite for our party of 4 adults and 4 kids Practical layout with awesome views from open concept kitchen and lounge areas Fully functional kitchen with all appliances - older but functional One air conditioner was faulty but replaced within a few days Half hour drive to either Playa del Carmen or Cancun 15 minute drive to Puerto Morelos for supermarkets etc Negatives : No amenities within walking distance Poor quality linen, mattresses and towels but sufficient quantities for our group Dated decor and mismatched utensils Intermittent problems with water supply which was frustrating but fortunately caretaker was on site and available to deal with it each time Sharp edged tiles inside pool and kids had a few minor cuts Overall the beach and the view is great but the home was underwhelming compared to other places we have rented in the same price category.

"Top drawer "accomodations that can not be beat.
A very special place in Mexico. The view from the penthouse is exquisite. Spectacular location and expansive views of private beach and ocean. Accommodations were wonderful with enough room for our total family of nine including children. Especially nice to have the kitchen table comfortable for all of us. And nice to have bathrooms for all 3 individual families. Highly recommended

Amazing family vacation, wonderful owners and staff
I was worried about staying off a resort in a private home internationally. I could not be more thankful for Cristina and Alberto. I was guided through the rental process by the owner and she helped make other arrangements for me also. Alberto and the other staff were amazing. The house and grounds were cleaned daily. Alberto helped us several times with groceries, transportation, etc... The house is amazing. What you see in the pictures is what you get. I am happy to say they have an oven now in the penthouse. We had 9 people who had plenty of room. We were close to our adventure excursions while being tucked away in this neighborhood. The property is located between resorts so there is ample security surrounding the neighborhood and a guard for the homes. My family always felt safe and had no problems during our stay. You will not find a better price for the house we were privileged to stay in. The location is amazing for trips to Puerto Morales and Playa Del Carmen. We will be back. I must add. Many people judge beach houses harshly. Yes there are a few issues with a drawer here and there. There may be a hole in a screen. BUT, any issue we had was immediately fixed by Alberto. I mean instantly. The other issues are typical for a place on the beach. Things are damp, sand gets on the floor, you may have some insects due to the jungle location. Be reasonable in your expectations. This is not a resort. That said, I would not hesitate to rent again.

best family vacation ever
There was 9 of us 4 adults and 5 kids ages 12-16, 2 families and we rented the penthouse for 1 week. This is our last morning and as we pack up we are saying how much we have enjoyed our stay here..Alberto and Damien have been amazing and have gone beyond the call of duty to make our stay enjoyable. We have taken the bus into Porta Morales and Playa Del Carmen. We found this to be very easy and the locals were more than willing to point us in the right direction. I should also say this was our first experience with a rental and we will be sure to do it again.
