Secret Beach Shell Villa - on Beach - Private Pool - Owner is a Chef - Very Safe

The Secret Beach Shell Villa has long been a favorite of the Mayan Riviera and for some good reasons.

Located in a Very Small Safe Gated (Guard 24/7) Residential Community of High-End Villas - no crowds - very private. Close to all the local attractions but tucked away on the Mayan Riviera's Secret Beach (Playa del Secreto) is known as the nicest beach along the Mayan Riviera that our Staff rakes daily. We are also a Turtle Nest Sanctuary. Its nice time to come is during the Turtle season.

See our 5 Star reviews on the Adjacent identical Villa Homeaway listing #303852 which has been on HomeAway VRBO for more than 20 years and has a review from the VRBO Bear (staff of HomeAway stayed at the villa and left a review)

The Secret Beach Villas are actually three luxury Identical Beach-Front villas all 4 or 5 bedrooms each with its own private pool, part of a three-villa building; You can rent one or two or all three villas if you have a bigger group of up to 32 people.
