The Most Amazing Views! Beachfront Penthouse 3BR3/Bth

# Welcome to Penthouse 3000 at Tim's Ocean Condos

Penthouse 3000 is a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom beachfront penthouse with approximately 2,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor living space.

Located at the top of the resort, this two-story penthouse has something that cannot easily be captured in photographs: the views.

The Caribbean Sea stretches out in brilliant shades of turquoise and blue. Look north and the Cancun Hotel Zone follows the coastline into the distance. Turn the other direction and beautiful lagoon views complete the panorama.

Tim still remembers walking into Penthouse 3000 for the first time. After more than 20 years renting beachfront vacation properties in Cancun, these remain among the most incredible views he has ever seen.

## Inside Penthouse 3000

Penthouse 3000 was designed for families and groups who want more than a traditional hotel room.

The penthouse includes three bedrooms and three bathrooms, spacious living areas, and two private balconies.

The two-story design creates separation between living and sleeping areas. Meanwhile, the balconies provide private outdoor spaces for enjoying the Cancun sunshine and remarkable views.

A full kitchen is provided, along with clean drinking water from the kitchen's reverse-osmosis system.

Private Wi-Fi is also provided inside the penthouse. Charging stations with electrical outlets and USB connections are available throughout the bedrooms and living areas.

Quality linens, oversized cotton bath towels, and eight large beach towels are provided for your stay.

## Your Beachfront Location

Penthouse 3000 is located directly on the beach at kilometer 19.5 of Cancun's famous Hotel Zone.

The location provides convenient access to Cancun International Airport while keeping guests directly on the Caribbean Sea.

Restaurants and a convenience store are located across the street. Cancun's additional restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and nightlife can easily be reached.

Public buses operate throughout the Hotel Zone, making it simple to explore Cancun without renting a car.

## A Full Resort Experience

When you stay at Penthouse 3000, you receive the privacy and space of a vacation rental while staying within a full-service beachfront resort.

Resort amenities include swimming pools, beach access, loungers, umbrellas, fitness facilities, spa facilities, restaurants, bars and 24-hour security.

Instead of choosing between a Cancun vacation rental and a resort experience, Penthouse 3000 provides access to both.

## All-Inclusive Is Optional

One of the advantages of staying with Tim's Ocean Condos is flexibility.

Guests are not required to purchase an all-inclusive package with their penthouse reservation.

When available, resort all-inclusive access may be purchased separately through the resort. Resort pricing and availability are controlled by the resort and may change.

Prefer to do your own thing?

Use the penthouse kitchen, visit nearby restaurants, or fill the provided cooler with drinks and snacks for your day at the beach or pool.

## The Tim's Ocean Condos Experience

Penthouse 3000 is professionally managed by Tim's Ocean Condos.

Tim and Megan discovered Cancun more than 20 years ago. They had been renting beachfront vacation property in Florida. After experiencing Cancun, they decided to sell their Florida properties and begin building what eventually became Tim's Ocean Condos.

Today, our focus remains simple: provide beautiful beachfront penthouses with the personal service that can be difficult to find with an ordinary vacation rental.

Local assistance is also provided in Cancun. Our onsite property manager is available at the resort Monday through Saturday during regular daytime hours.

## In-Home Mexican Cooking

One of our guests' favorite services is in-home cooking.

Local cooks can prepare an authentic Mexican meal right inside your penthouse. The service can include grocery shopping and meal preparation, with meals served buffet style.

Details, menus, current pricing and reservation information are provided to guests after booking.

## Experience Cancun Like Someone Who Knows Cancun

More than two decades in Cancun have given us considerable local knowledge.

Guests receive recommendations for restaurants, transportation, excursions, snorkeling, Isla Mujeres, nightlife and other Cancun experiences.

Instead of simply receiving the keys to a vacation rental, information collected through years of experience is made available throughout your stay.

## Traveling With a Larger Group?

Penthouse 3000 is part of the Tim's Ocean Condos collection of beachfront penthouses located within the same Cancun resort.

For larger families, reunions and groups traveling together, additional Tim's Ocean Condos penthouses may be reserved within the same property, subject to availability.

This provides larger groups with something unusual in Cancun: separate private accommodations while everyone remains together at the same beachfront resort.

Ask about options available for your group and travel dates.

## Families Are Welcome

Traveling with babies or young children is made easier with a Pack 'n Play and highchair available in the penthouse. Additional items may be available upon request.

Private transportation and grocery-stop options can also be arranged through providers recommended to our guests.

## Before Booking Penthouse 3000

Penthouse 3000 is a special rooftop property.

The resort elevator travels to the seventh floor. From there, three flights of stairs must be climbed to reach the penthouse.

There are no neighboring units at the rooftop level.

During regular onsite management hours, assistance with luggage can be provided. Guests with mobility limitations should carefully consider the stair access before reserving Penthouse 3000.

## Why Stay With Tim's Ocean Condos?

A vacation should be about more than finding somewhere to sleep.

With Penthouse 3000, you receive a private beachfront vacation rental in Cancun, spectacular Caribbean views, resort amenities, local assistance and more than two decades of Cancun vacation rental experience behind your stay.

The location was very convenient to the airport and a short bus ride to downtown. The views were as promised. SPECTACULAR!!! The resort is not giant, which is what we like, and has all that you need. The optional all-inclusive was another big draw for us. The host and property manager get 10 stars for their prompt and courteous communication and assistance. They will be seeing us again.

Tim's 3000 penthouse is the best of the best!

The property is safe, beautiful and upscaled. We loved the pool, the spa and the service from Abdiel and Paulo! They unpacked my groceries! That is next level ***** The bedrooms had beautiful views. The living room/ dining room is amazing because you see the ocean and the lagoon. I can't describe how wonderful it was to come "home" to this penthouse. In the morning you watch the sunrise over the ocean terrace and in the evening the terrace on the lagoon side provides beautiful sunsets. You are on private terraces. This penthouse is your oasis! The kitchen was well stocked. We loved having the cooler and Tim's condo plastic cups for poolside. We never wanted to leave! Thank you for a wonderful vacation Also, the recommended restaurants across the street were so yummy. Navio's is fine dining (but we ate there 2 nights $$$ but 5 star) 19.5 Joes was great for breakfast, snacks, and cocktails $ Laid back vibe. You just walk across the road. We Loved everything

Gorgeous views, needs updating

The pros…The views from this property are unmatched. They are gorgeous and you get to see both the beach side and lagoon side beautifully. Abdiel was very kind, interactive, and responded to anything we needed right away. There was a lot of space and each room had its own bathroom. It is easy to catch a bus to go out to dinner if wanting to. We did all inclusive one day and really liked the food! The downsides to staying in the penthouse…one of the two elevators at the property was not working our whole stay. The other shut down a few times which made it difficult to get up and down quickly. Many things need to be renovated in the penthouse such as the kitchen ceiling was leaking, a toilet wasn’t working when we got there, two of the glass doors don’t lock, there is no dishwasher or oven. The small coffee shop in the lobby does not have a lot of eating options like we thought it would after reading about it. Heads up there really is only one pool there and the hot tub is not hot.

Response from VrboOwner on Feb 10, 2025
Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate it. I am here in Cancun now, I have been here two weeks and I'm staying another 10 days. For those who are wondering regarding issues during our guests stay: I confirm that both of our elevators work every day. I confirm that the leak in the kitchen is no more. We had a water proofing specialist come in and he did the entire roof. When I see a review that is not good, I take the time to come down here to inspect everything again. The toilets were all working. The locks worked, but it took too much effort, plus the doors were older, so I had all 3 sliding doors replaced with new ones. We have a toaster oven. The kitchen cabinets were just refinished, new hardware also. There is also brand new living room furniture. I will be getting photos of that hopefully Feb 21, we are booked solid until then. I also put in all new TV's they are all smart TV's 65", Samsung TV's. All the outdoor furniture is a year old. We do not advertise a hot tub, nor do we show pictures, because it is kept luke warm. If you want a hot tub, please use the spa. For the coffee shop, we say that they offer baguets and wraps, personal size pizza, and desserts and coffee. They still offer these options. Blessings all. Tim and team.

The Oleo Resort is not friendly and food was gross

1. The Front desk told me to my face they would rather not lhelp me because i had rented the penthouse and i wasnt a " real" resort guest. 2. I needed to take a teen who caught steep throat ro hospital and they said rhey didnt know where one was. I had to scream i needed help to get help finding a hospital 3. We purchased all inclusive four times and each time the food seemed worse The asian restaurant Served some kind of food in ketchup instead of an Asian sauce it was so disgusting we left 4. The only place that had anything decent was a little coffee shop.. Also the store charged me $80 for three bottles of Alevera total rip off I would never ever ever ever go anywhere near that place again

Dissapointing stay

We were very excited to see the condo but when we got there we were disappointed by the cleanliness and the old facilities, the photos on vrbo are not what they appear, the air conditioners do not cool well that is why they have fans in the condo, in one of the bedrooms the air conditioner did not work well, in another bedroom the sofa bed is broken, the living room is old and broken and there is an old, dirty rug. The condo is on the top floor so we had to take the elevator to the 7th floor and then go up 2 more floors by the stairs and once inside the condo climb a very small and uncomfortable staircase, this condo is not for people with a disability and it is not safe for families with small children. There were leaks in the kitchen, the bathrooms smelled bad, the hotel staff is not friendly, the beach has rocks and the hotel pool is very small for 3 buildings, it was not the best vacation we could have had, we expected to be more relaxed and comfortable but it was not like that.

I am sorry to hear about your disappointment with the condo. I don't think this assessment is reasonable. The photos look exactly as the unit is. All of the outdoor furniture is brand new as of spring of 2024. We expressly show the information about the stairs at the very top of the write up, and put IMPORTANT, in all caps in this regard. I will agree that the AC's were struggling at the time of this stay, and I can confirm that the unit has all new AC systems for all zones of the unit. I also purchased the best brand available in Cancun, Trane. Also I put in far more tonnage than is suggested for his many square feet, since we have so many windows, and it gets cold in all the rooms. I confirm that we had a leak that was remedied. There is not a bad smell. I was there myself in August to oversee the AC installation, so I don't know what that part is about. Cancun had several hurricanes in 2024, and we lost a lot of sand, which uncovered some rocks. The beach recovers over time and the rocks have been covered by all sand as of this writing a few months later. My wife also provides excellent quality sheets, towels, and bath matts. If the guest had communicated about anything he did not like, we are always prompt to respond and take care of anything a guest may need. My wife and I take pride in keeping all our units very well updated. So it was very disappointing to see this review come through. Kind regards all.

Spectacular Views, Attentive Service

The pictures don't lie: the views from this property are spectacular: sunrise & sunset vistas from two patios gaze upon pristine azure waters and glistening white beaches. There's plenty of room to spread out & the host and his property manager are exceptionally responsive. Things to consider if renting this unit: - Guests must navigate several flights of stairs to the unit and another steep, narrow flight to the kitchen. Guests with limited mobility and families with small children should opt for one this host's many other units in the building. (Note: this isn't a great resort for little ones.) - The 3rd bedroom/bathroom suite is accessible via a spiral staircase outside the main unit on the balcony. - Located on the southern end of the Hotel Zone, the property is quieter but away from most dining/entertainment options. Buses are frequent, cheap and easy to use. - The condo is part of an all-inclusive resort: you must buy the daily dining program to use the pool bar or eat onsite. Otherwise, your food options are limited to two nearby restaurants or a bus trip further up the Hotel Zone. - The all-inclusive nature generates rowdy groups of guests trying to drink their daily allotment. A DJ comes poolside around noon to rev up the group. Whether you enjoy this aspect comes to personal preference. - Roving salespeople will try to get you to attend a breakfast to buy into the resort's membership tier. They are polite but relentless, as they are paid only on commission.

Breathtaking views and great location

We loved our visit to Cancun! Tim and his team were great at communicating with us early on to plan a successful trip-from where to exchange pesos to how to take the bus to the best recommendation for snorkeling at the Isla Mujeres. Everything was easy to reach from the condo. The views are breathtaking-the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. The pool and beach were fun too. There was a lot of kelp but it looked like they raked it into the sand with a tractor occasionally. So nice to have a private beach. We were there over the 4th of July and they shot fireworks out over the ocean. Great stay, great service. We would definitely come again.

An Amazing adventure in total luxury

I cannot say enough about how super cool this property is. I loved the crows nest room and all the rooms. So much space and Abdeil was so very kind and really made sure we were satisfied with everything. In fact I flaked on a covid email and he hunted down my results at 11:30 pm. Soo over the top. This is a beautiful beach resort and a super cool space. Got alot of quiet time to read and pray and chant. Hari Krishna

Hello again!

My brother and I started out in the vacation rental business back in 2003, renting beachfront units in Cocoa Beach Florida. Not long after that, we purchased in Cancun, just one unit that we still have to this day, Penthouse #2701 at the Oleo Cancun Playa resort, the same resort you see in the photo galleries here.

Over time, many other owners approached me to take care of their places. I had a vision to have only penthouse units, so that I could offer travelers a unique grouping of units with large private outdoor spaces & amazing views. All these years later, this is what I can offer vacation travelers. All the places I take care of are at this same resort, Oleo Cancun Playa, and all are Penthouse units offering large expansive and exciting private outdoor spaces with exceptional views.

My wife Megan and I run the business as our full-time jobs on the states side from the Chicago suburbs, and on the Cancun side we have full time staff at the resort every day except Sundays. We keep in touch with our quests via a group email chat, that has our guests, myself and my wife, and our management team in Cancun in the thread. And we encourage our guests to add others to the thread if they would like. We pride ourselves on our swift responsiveness should our guests need anything, from the moment the booking is made all the way through your stay in Cancun. My wife and I are in Cancun frequently to work with our team in an ongoing effort to always improve.

If you happen to be in town when we are as well, it would be great to say hello. We really enjoy being able to make personal acquaintances with our guests. We have many guests that come back year after year, and we have forged some beautiful friendships with several of our guests over the years.

Warm regards, and we hope to see you in sunny Cancun!

Why they chose this property

Hello again everyone!

This is the story of why we chose to purchase our property, and how it happened. Please note that I manage this unit for the owner. The account of the owner showing me his place for the first time is noted in the main description at the top. I first started taking care of #3000 in 2012, and we have made a lot of nice improvements over the years. Thanks, Tim Miller

After my brother Rod and I discovered Cancun, it was not if we were going to buy something there, but where. We looked at a lot of options with the realtors. We worked with a 2 guy team, quite unique, they are both good guys, and they loved to have fun and cut up, so that made the looking process more fun.

The thing about the hotel zone is, anywhere you find on the beach is close to everything else by bus. So, it was more a situation of what is the resort like, what is the unit like, the views for sure, and could you rent it nightly/weekly. We were on the verge of buying two studio units at a different resort, even though, in our heart, we really wanted the 4br at Oleo. It was a total dump, but it had million-dollar views and it was this huge 4br with this massive balcony. Plus, we loved that is was within an actual resort, rather than a condo complex. But we didn’t have the money, by a long shot, we only had half, and you couldn’t get loans back then for Mexico property.

Rod and I were in the middle of talking about it when my Mom walked in and said, just buy the bigger place, you know you want it”. We’re like, “how, we only have half of the money?”. Mom goes, “just tell him you’ll give him ½ now and half a year from now, because you can refinance the Florida property AFTER it has gone up in value again.”

We were already mortgage maxed out in Florida, whenever values went up, we refinanced to buy more. Not smart, but we didn’t know any better and the banks were allowing no down payments for commercial property back then, which led to the bank collapse in 2008.

What makes this property unique

Penthouse 3000 at Tim's Ocean Condos is a spacious 3-bedroom beachfront vacation rental in Cancun with two private balconies, spectacular Caribbean Sea views, two-story living and a prime location in Cancun's Hotel Zone.
