Hippie Bob & Diana's Beachfront Penthouse; Chankanaab Area

This condominium is next to the World Class Chankanaab Park and provides the highest view ( 3rd floor) in the area. From your balcony, watch the beautiful gem called the Caribbean, the spectacular sunsets, cruise ships, or the twinkling lights of Playa de Carmen at night.

Take a look at our Beach house in the same resort; VRBO #150035 & #4119701.

Enjoy your close proximity to the Caribbean by taking a few steps to our beach and entering the only inland coral reef in the world, giving you access to more than 60 species of tropical fish, crustaceans, and corals. Also, because your vacation is our priority, maid service three times a week cleaning is provided. You can even have a massage, pedicure, and manicure on the premises for a very reasonable extra fee! Why leave Paradise when you don't have to? In order that you have complete peace of mind in paradise, we provide free unlimited calls to and from the U.S & Canada. Bringing joy to others is our mission. Experience the joy! Live well, and be happy...

Please visit our other VRBO site #150035 to view our Beach House! 150 feet from the Caribbean and steps from our freshwater pool. Any closer you will get wet...

We stayed here on the 3rd floor, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms this July 2026. Beautiful views! The top floor palapa was nice for sunsets and margaritas. Another family was up there in the palapa and we thought it was our private area. Just for others to know it’s shared. Their VRBO photos need to be updated because we noticed the condo now has a new L shaped sofa in the living room and the palapa roof top has been expanded and renovated since the pictures were last posted. The one tv is huge with a sound bar. Place is very safe and cozy clean! Love the pool and turquoise water -snorkel beach. There’s a walkable ramp then sit down and snorkel and swim around all the fish ! Yes they have fins and snorkel gear. They have a couple of coolers too. You’ll need ice packs for going on a drive-picnic or down by the beach. East side and Passion Islsnd currently has sargassum. Mr. Sanchos beach club was beautiful! Get reservations. Close to dining. We enjoyed cooking BBQ on their front door patio BBQ. So enjoy your day and night at this relaxing condo! I miss it already! Nice sunset and water views!

We just finished our 3rd trip to Paradise Condos and we love them, so we keep coming back. Out of the city, but not too far to head in for dinner each night. The beach clubs on either side are only open during the day for the cruise ships. That makes for 2 easy lunch options and quiet evenings. We usually hit the grocery stores to stock up on fruit and pastries for breakfast. The beach is rocky, bring water shoes for the rocks and the urchins. You don't see much snorkeling during the day due to the activity nearby but the night snorkeling is great. Bring a flashlight! We saw yellow and Atlantic stingrays, burrfish, porcupine fish, spotted moray eels, nurse sharks, squid, octopus, lobsters, crabs, etc. For snorkeling during the day, we recommend driving south past SkyReef and parking in the dirt. The property manager, Damien, is very helpful and responsive!

We really enjoyed our stay in this 3rd story condo. It had everything we needed and it was located by a great little snorkeling spot. There were some restaurants nearby and we were able to get groceries and cook some meals as well. The highlight of this condo are the views from the living area and the beautiful rooftop terrace.
