The Secret Beach Villa is actually three identical villas - part of a three villa building. Each villa has its own separate pool and because of their size (2500 sq. ft.) and layout are very private from each other. You can rent one or two or all three villas if you have a bigger group We called the villas the "Shell Villa" (4 bedroom - End Villa), the "Fish Villa" (4 bedroom - End Villa) and the "Boat Villa" (Middle Villa - 3 Bedroom) due to the difference in the theme of the decor.

Located directly on the beach - the water edge is 30' from the back door in a private Gated Residential Community that is very safe.
Private pool
- each villa has a
private pool with privacy walls between and 2 tanning beds.

The beach at Playa del
Secreto is fine white powdery sand.

What's a Cupula Ceiling?

It's a dome shaped ceiling - inland with bricks.
It serves two purposes, first is helps to cool the villa and second it
architecturally beautiful. All the upstairs rooms have cupula ceilings;

What is a Cenote?

We have a lovely "Cenote" on our property. Cenote (say-NO-tay)
is the Spanish word for a water-filled limestone sinkhole. In
Mexico's northern Yucatan Peninsula, where there are few lakes
or streams, Cenote's provided a stable supply of water for the
ancient Maya people who settled there. Ours has my husband's
"pet" a small harmless crocodile who is also our garbage
disposal and quite an amusement for the renters to see him being
fed.
Boogie boards, snorkeling equipment, pool floats, beach toys, etc
Palapa in garden area with
one of the largest stainless steel gas grill available
also a charcoal grill that
the staff will light for you.

Sheltered parking
24-Hour security system installed with cameras outside the villas.
We have vehicles for rent - on request they will be waiting at the villas for you - all are insured (2 mini-vans, Suburban , and an Excursion)
Large Outside Covered Patio

The owners live in a separate apartment 300
feet in back of the villa (at the entrance of the driveway
away from the beach.) Unlike many villas in the region we are onsite
owner/mangers, this is not a vacation home we see once in a while - we
live here so we are aware of our staff, and maintenance issues are
addressed in a timely manner.
We
believe that the villas are your home while you are here. Keeping that
in mind, we respect your privacy above all. However, if you need us we
are only steps away.
