Hippie Bob & Diana's Beachfront Penthouse; Chankanaab Area

We loved the location of the property - close enough to city center to get what you need, but more privacy and a better beach than you can find in the city. The neighboring properties offer bar and food services - it was convenient to have those options nearby. The beach was beautiful and the snorkeling was amazing! We didn't find any need to leave the property during our stay unless we just wanted to venture out and explore. Highly recommend visiting Coconuts on the other side of the island! Also, we took a trip to El Cielo - which is a MUST do! The unit could use some updating, but overall we thoroughly enjoyed everything! We were unable to get our propane/butane tank for the grill replenished during our stay which was unfortunate, but I was pleased to receive the full $500 deposit back at the end of the stay - true to their word!

My wife and I (+2 tweens) had the opportunity to spend 10 days in this property. We could not be happier. Everything was in top notch shape and the grounds were immaculate. The penthouse offered all the amenities you can think of and was very clean. The communication was the owner was also flawless. I could not recommend this place enough but I'd like to keep it as a secret in order to rent it in the future!

Wonderful week at Hippie Bob's Penthouse condo. Great views from the condo and rooftop palapa. The condo was comfortable and very nice and right on the beach. We walked next door to Tortuga's Beach Club for breakfast most mornings. Jordy, the manager, was very helpful and meet us when we arrived with cold beer! Ever time I emailed Bob for information he responded very quickly. We didn't have a problem getting a taxi and the ride to town was 10.00 US. The maid came 2 times while we were there and the condo was stocked with everything you could need. I would definitely recommend this place and hope to rent again next year.

Great location. Did Ironman Cozumel, this condo was a five minute walk to Chankanaab where the bike transition area was located. Awesome view of the ocean. Great beach and swim area.

We had a great stay and felt very much at home. The views from the condo were spectacular--what a treat! The condo was comfortable and had everything we needed. It was clean and nicely decorated. We were there with two adult sons so the 3 bedrooms were perfect. The beds and bedrooms were comfortable. Maid service was great and more than we expected (they came 3 times during the week). Jordy, the manager, was always responsive and helpful. We loved snorkeling right off the beach and swimming in the pool, especially at sunset. The location was very convenient--away from the crowds but not too far from town either. We were there for a triathlon and the bike race went right by the condo. We then walked to the finish, a little more than a mile away. We rented a car from Thrifty as Bob recommended and had no problems. It would have been a real hassle if we hadn't. We heard about potential problems with car rentals, but we didn't have any, as long as you know you'll have to pay for liability insurance (no getting around it). We almost always parked at the Mega Supermarket and walked from there when we wanted to go into town. The drive to town was about 15 minutes. We cooked meals in the kitchen most days and found the appliances worked well and we had pretty much all the cookware, utensils, etc., that we needed. We went on 4 scuba dives and they picked us up right at the beach in front of the condos. We had lovely meals at Rolandi's and the Money Bar. We enjoyed the local museum where there was a nice restaurant overlooking the water for lunch. I contacted Bob a few times before the trip and he always responded right away. We would highly recommend this property and if we find ourselves back there, we'll definitely want to stay there again. It was hard to leave!
