Perfect beach getaway

The home was very well maintained and you can’t beat being steps from the beach. The e house had everything we needed to bbq and cook, play games, lounge in the pool or play in the ocean. We will definitely return!

What a treat!

This is our second time staying at this property, our first time we enjoyed the privacy of the location, the service, the installations with a beach and pool all for ourselves. We had to come back! This time, it was even better. Nico and Anita are always so gracious , she prepared breakfast for us everyday (worth the extra fee), and made us a so rf and turf bbq that was as good as any ot the top notch restaurants around the area. We will keep coming back. Thank you for a delicious stay.

Getaway with the girls

Lovely, spacious home. Friendly people. Peaceful location. Ana cooked us a delicious dinner one night, after our excursion to dos ojos. Would definitely recommend staying at Villa Picón! Day trip to Akumal for sea turtle swim was about a 35 minute drive. Loved it all!

Very nice place

Great house and a great location. Beautiful view next to the ocean, very clean beach and private. Well located between Cancun and playa del Carmen. Would recommend to anyone. Ana and Nico are very nice. It was clean at all times inside and outside. Wifi is not very reliable but we saw it as an opportunity to connect with nature. We will definitely come back. Thank you very much!!!

Villa Picón Exceeds Expectations

Our group of 7 ranging from seven months to seventy years of age all loved our stay at Villa Picón. The location on Playa Secreto is worlds away from the chaos of Cancun! Luis was easy to communicate with and Nico and Ana were absolutely lovely on site. We found that the listing actually does not do the place justice - things were even better than expected! Case in point: despite saying the common spaces were not air conditioned, we arrived to find a delightfully cool sitting room and kitchen from the newly-installed air conditioning! The master suite is huge and has commanding views out over the pool and ocean. Loved our stay and can’t wait to return!

Villa Picon is amazing!

Villa Picon is the finest vacation rental we have ever experienced. The home is spectacular - photos do not do it justice. Luis Picon was very easy to communicate with - responded to questions promptly with helpful information. As others have mentioned, the full-time couple that look after the property, Nico and Anna, were super helpful and friendly. And Anna am excellent cook - best meals during our week there were by her. And so nice not to have to drive into town at night for dinner. Although Puerto Moreles is a cute town with decent restaurants etc. Villa Picon provided a most relaxing vacation in a beautiful location - hope to return! Rich and Adriana from NC.

Lovely home with beautiful view that was perfect for a girls weekend!

We are a group of 4 lifelong friends who stayed at Villa Picon for a girls weekend. The house and location were perfect for us! The house was clean and very spacious and the outdoor area is beautiful! We loved the privacy and quiet but we’re not too far from some action. We rented a car so that made grocery shopping and trips into town super easy, but if you plan on just hanging out at the house and take advantage of the pre-stock service, then a rental car may not be necessary. Ana cleaned the house daily and Nico did the pool/beach set up every morning. They were very kind and available but also gave us space, which we liked. This would be a great house for couples or a family, too! We very much enjoyed our stay!!

Amazing stay!

What an awesome experience! Villa is right on the ocean and just as you see in the photos. What a beautiful view from the villa and the pool and jacuzzi were fantastic. The house is well equipped with everything you need indoors and out - kayaks, life vests, beach toys etc.. What you can’t see in the photos is the tremendous team of Ana and Nico who take care of your every need with a smile. We had Ana cook us dinner a few nights and it was delicious. My kids took Nico some coconuts and he used his machete to serve up coconut drinks and snacks! Not to mention all the other things they did like cleaning, raking the beach, keeping the pool ready etc…. You can’t get this level of service in any five star resort. The only disappointment was having to leave but we will definitely return

Riviera vacation

I meticulously planned this trip to Playa del Carmen to celebrate my grandfather's birthday, booking our accommodations nearly a year in advance to ensure that every detail was perfect. I had high hopes for this special occasion, envisioning a wonderful getaway for my family. Unfortunately, upon our arrival, I was disheartened to discover that the property management had no record of our reservation for that date. As a result, the house was not clean or prepared for our stay, which was incredibly disappointing. The staff at the property were generally helpful and friendly, and even their dog added a warm touch to the atmosphere. To make amends for the oversight, we were issued a refund for one night's stay. However, we faced the uncomfortable situation of having to spend our first night in a house that was not up to our expectations of cleanliness and comfort. It was particularly embarrassing for me to present such inadequate accommodations to my family, especially considering the effort I had put into planning this memorable celebration.

Unbelievable Vacation Experience!!

Villa Picon exceeded our expectations. We felt it was even more stunning in person than the pictures indicate. We arrived to the most unbelievable homemade guacamole and a pitcher of margaritas by Ana and Nico. We were met with the most stunning views of the Caribbean. Waking up every morning to the sunrise is something we will not soon forget. We had Ana cook a few meals for us, and we truly felt pampered. Nico did a great job managing the grounds, making sure the umbrellas were up every morning and the hot tub was just at the temperature we preferred. We rented a car, which I highly suggest everyone does, it allowed us to travel to Puerto Morales almost daily and enjoy the quaint and very walkable seaside village. Make sure you have Pesos as gas stations do not accept credit cards . We felt very safe, there is a security gate/guard to the entrance of this small residential complex. Wifi was adequate and reliable , not real fast but allowed us to do everything we wanted, I am already looking at dates for 2023 !!

More Perfect Than Pictures

The area is stunning . Our stay was a girls trio, my mom, my sister, my aunt, and my two daughters . We felt VERY safe . The beach is very nice. Several people mention seaweed and we did not think it was a problem at all. It sweeps up on the shore at night but the water during the day is completely fine. The seaweed is definitely not a problem.. The house managers Nico and Ana are great and went over and above. We got in around 10 PM not expecting much and a little worried about the check in process as we had not received any communication on keys etc. when we drive up Nico was waving and pleasant and eager to welcome our family. He had margaritas and Ana made us guacamole that lasted us the next 4 days!! It was the best guacamole I have ever had . She made us fajitas that also feed us lunch the next day. Beds and pillows are amazing . I have been to 6 or so different VRBO ‘s this was by far my favorite… The location, the house, the hosts… all was top notch. It’s is not very close to anything as far as shopping or convenient stores rent a car for sure..

Little piece of paradise

Everything about the house was incredible. We had questions about the hot tub and Nico was there immediately. One of the TVs broke and we had a new one that day. I’d highly recommend having Ana cook for you a couple of nights. She was amazing to work with and she made some of the best ceviche I’ve ever had. We will be back.
