VRBO Premier Host #3703 – Beachfront - Hot Tub Overlooks Ocean timsoceancondos
Hi everyone, my name is Tim Miller. My brother and I discovered Cancun back in 2004. We were blown away! At the time, we had beachfront vacation rental property in Coco Beach Florida. But once we saw Cancun, we were so impressed that we immediately agreed to sell everything in Florida to purchase just one place in Cancun. When you come into the Cancun Hotel Zone from the airport, there is fresh water to your left, and the Caribbean to your right. You have these amazing turquoise waters of Cancun, unmatched in beauty. Then on the other side you have these lush mangroves as the backdrop to this spring fed lake, which is known as a lagoon. The hotel zone is an island, shaped like a “7”. To the left of the “7” is the freshwater, and to the right is the Caribbean. Everywhere you look it’s so beautiful. And the locals are wonderful people.
Manager: Tim and Megan Miller Penthouse #3703: Beachfront 4BR-3.5BTH - Approx 2,750 sq ft including terrace 7th & 8th floors-2 Story Corner Unit
Penthouse #3703 sits on the corner (there are only 4 units on the Penthouse Level, one on each corner) of the North tower. You walk in and you have the living room, dining room, powder room, kitchen, big terrace, laundry room and one small bedroom with queen bed & private bathroom, BR4. Upstairs you have the other 3 bedrooms, the master has a king bed with private bathroom, BR 2 has two queens, BR3 has one queen. The hall bath serves BR2 and BR3. The views are of both the ocean and the lagoon. 3703 is unique in that although it faces the lagoon, you have great ocean views from the terrace and 3 of the 4 bedrooms, and 1 of the 3 bedrooms has a beautiful lagoon view. #3703 is the only Penthouse that features the 4 person hot tub, an especially nice feature that overlooks the ocean. And with the views from #3703 being so nice in every direction, it’s no wonder that this unit is always among the most popular of our offerings.

- - - - - WHAT YOU GET WITH US INSTEAD! - - - - -
1. VRBO Premier Host with Great Reviews!
2. My wife and I do this full time; it is our dedicated passion to serve you.
3. Abdiel is our full-time manager on the ground in Cancun to service you. They are at the resort Mon-Sat 9-5pm, and after hours you will still receive prompt responses via email.
4. Rather than an apartment building, we reside within a full service resort with full time staff, 24 hour security gated security, 24 hour beautiful lobby, gym, spa, tennis court, pool, beach, sun deck, loungers and umbrellas, hot tub, photos studio, tour center, 5 restaurants, 2 bars including a pool bar, and spa with steam room, sauna, relaxation pool, hot tub, and massage and nail services.
5. The resort is all-inclusive. When you book a Penthouse unit, the all-inclusive is optional each day you are there. Payment is made at the lobby front desk. Cost is currently $95 per person per day, Dec 20-Jan 4 is $135 per day. Prices are subject to change without notice as we have no control over resort pricing. Kids 11 or under are ½ off, 2 years and under are free.
6. For days you do not want the all-inclusive, feel free fill up the cooler inside the condo with your favorite drinks & snacks and take that to the pool or beach. It’s ideal, it makes for a nice little table as well, about the size of a carryon.
7. You always have one resort restaurant that is never all inclusive. You pay per item and they have things like tasty toasted subs, wraps, and pizza. They also have a wide assortment of coffees and desserts.
8. Indulge in our in-home cooking service for an authentic Mexican feast prepared by our local cooks. Our guests love this! We provide the service to our guests only at our raw cost (nonprofit service). It runs $10 per person for the service ($80 min) and it includes purchasing the groceries and preparing the meal. Our cooks provide you with a receipt for the groceries. Meals are served buffet style. It’s payable in cash at the time of service. It’s very easy to book, the menu and link come in your welcome pack.
9. Our location is ideal. We have great restaurants right across the street, plus a convenience store that sells beer and all the hard liquors. At the same time our area is well lit, and very safe, and our activity level surrounding the resort is mild. Everything is close by, buses run 24/7 and you can be at a myriad of additional restaurants, shops, and big nightclubs in minutes.
10. Oleo prints out a weekly brochure for guests detailing the latest activity offerings. Often times there is live entertainment around the bar, and water yoga is typically on the weekly calendar.
11. Tours and Excursions Insider Knowledge: With over two decades of experience in Cancun, we offer invaluable insights into the best activities and excursions. Here’s an example, the snorkeling excursion with my friend Mike, who I have known for over 2 decades now. Mike is such a great guy! Always smiling and joking around. His family comes from many generations of fisherman that go way back to before Cancun was even known as a destination. The cost for Mike’s private excursion is $90 per person ($540 minimum). For that price you get a 5-6 hour excursion, round trip transportation to the port, a golf cart rental on Isla Mujeres for 2 hours, and a huge meal at the end. On top of that, he takes you to the best snorkeling sites. One is in the protected waters by the Mexican government which require an additional pp payment that is also included. To have all that, plus a totally private excursion to your group, is an outstanding value that you will not find anywhere else.
12. VIP Night Club. At these big clubs in Cancun, the cover charges alone will run you $50 or more, plus you wait in lines to get in, then it’s standing room only and drinks are very expensive. With us, you’ll get the link to purchase the VIP night club pass. For $150, you will have VIP access, no lines, A VIP table, and not only is your cover charge included, but all your drinks as well. It goes from 10am to 3am and includes transportation to the clubs.
13. Grocery convenience. We provide a link to the transfer company we recommend. We have been referring them for years. They are private transfers, and they can take up to 10 per vehicle at a cost of $125 round trip for the whole group. For $40 extra they will take you to the grocery store before heading to the resort. If you arrive before check in time, we will get your luggage and groceries up, and your perishables in the fridge. The exceptions would be after 5pm or Sundays in which case we provide you a code for access. 14. Babies & little ones: Traveling with babies or young children? Each unit is equipped with a pack-n-plays and highchair. More than one of each is available upon request.
14. Clean drinking water. The reverse osmosis system in the kitchen provides free clean drinking water.
15. Quality linens: My wife specifies sheet sets that are a polyester/cotton blend, 575 thread count. She says it is the perfect blend of softness and stain removal properties.
16. Quality Bath towels: For bath towels she specifies large 30”x 53” 100% cotton. They are really nice; we have the same ones at home. Way better than what you would expect at a nice hotel. To me, even the nicer hotels have towels that are not soft, and not very big.
17. We provide 8 Large commercial grade Beach Towels.
18. Private wifi: With nearly all hotels, the wifi is notoriously dangerous if you are entering sensitive information. We provide private wifi. To access, simply scan the QR code on the fridge. It puts the password in there for you as well, super simple to get online.
19. Charging Ports: All the bedrooms and every living room have a charging port with 3 outlets and 3 USB terminals.
20. Great guest communication: The Cancun Group Chat Email thread goes out to you & and our team. We encourage you to add others in your group to the thread. This way we all stay on the same page with whatever questions/answers you have along the way.
21. On site photographer: Looking to capture your vacation of a lifetime with pro-photos? Sandra is directly on site at the resort; her studios is near the pool. Her prices are reasonable, and she does great work, and she is such a nice gal. Her email, cell number, etc. is part of the welcome/info-pack page link provided when the welcome email goes out.
22. Birthday/Special Day celebrations: You can order these online on our site. We have a company set up the décor. Choose from ballon arches, or ballons coming out of a champagne (big balloon bottle) and other arrangements. You can choose colors and several different celebration types.
23. Tres Leches cake: It’s the best! My wife went to just about every bakery in Cancun, and we only order from the one she determined was the best of them all. Imagine cake with milk inside the little air bubbles within the cake. You’ll never want regular cake again! Order online on our site.
24. Info Pack: This web page has everything you need for your stay with us. We created it ourselves and have added to it over the years. It also includes things like restaurant, excursion and tour recommendations. It’s also searchable via AI, type in what you’re looking for and it’s there f

Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We stayed here for 4 nights for a family vacation and absolutely loved it! There was plenty of room for 3 couples and a baby, and beach is simply gorgeous.
The stay was amazing. Everything in the description matched. Very spacious. Close to all the things we needed. Clean and staff was quick and easy to reach. We used personal chef and that great as well! Highly recommend!
We had an over all 10 out of 10 experience! The location was perfect for our family get away. My favorite part was coffee on the balcony while watching the sun rise. The jacuzzi was just the right temperature to relax in after a great day at the beach. We chose to take advantage of the all inclusive most of the time and the food was by far the best “all inclusive” food we have ever had. It was so nice not to be at a crowded resort. The communication between the condo owner and the managers was spot on! I recommend this property to EVERYONE!!
Wonderful view of the ocean and the bay. Hot tub on the deck was great too. Tim/Megan arranged for a private cook for us at the condo. Food was wonderful and they cleaned up the kitchen afterwards. Tim has put some time into giving reviews on restaurants and places to eat and a website for us to book our fun trips. The only weird thing was the master shower is in a large jacuzzi tub, but it worked. We stay here again. We had 3 adults and 5 preteen to early 20’s with us. Never felt crowded.
I stayed at this place with 9 friends for my bachelorette party. It was perfect! The villa has plenty of room for large groups. The view from the balcony was absolutely gorgeous. Also, the fact that it is on an all-inclusive resort gave my group the best of both worlds; we opted into the all-inclusive option when it was most convenient for us but we were still able to all stay in one villa rather than split into hotel rooms as we thought we might have to at a resort. Tim and his team were very responsive and helpful in the weeks leading up to our trip and also while we were there. Would definitely stay again and recommend this place to anyone looking for a beautiful, spacious, clean place to stay with family or friends.
We had an excellent stay at this penthouse. It was easy to get around using the bus lines and the snorkeling with Mike was highlight of a great vacation. 5 stars. Thank you
Great stay Abdiel and Tim were so helpful and answered all my questions during my familys annual vacation trip. One of the toilets stopped working and Abdiel got it fixed in minutes. Location was great and resort, the only inconvenience for my family of 11 was the elevator, but besides that. Everything else was perfect.
Everything about this property was awesome. The condo is beautiful and having the option to opt in to the all inclusive amenities of the resort was super convenient. There was more that enough room for the 6 of us. Also, the communications was on point. We also got great suggestions for excursions, airport transfers, and restaurants. 10/10! We would definitely book again!
Seamless checkin, great communication between property manager and guest. Quick to resolve and accommodate any inconvenience or issues.
Stunning views in a very secure and private place.
Outstanding spa services. Highly recommended!
9 of us stayed here for a girls weekend and had a lovely time. We worked remotely on Friday and the wifi was fine. We decided to do the all-inclusive one day for convenience - the included restaurants were meh but that is to be expected for the all-inclusive. The owner and property managers were also extremely responsive. Would recommend!

Amazing view!!
Tim's place was perfect!! At the beginning of the Hotel strip with an absolutely amazing view of the ocean. You will not regret waking up to that breathtaking view each morning, or relaxing in the hot tub on the terrace as you watch the sunset. Francis was extremely helpful in anything we needed and the in home cooking service she provides is the perfect addition. Will definitely be returning in the future!

Amazing Birthday Celebrations
Fantastic location, beautiful views! Francis the host was very helpful, welcoming and great. There was plenty of room to sleep ten people and the spacious living area/balcony was great communal areas. Also the aircon works really well which is wonderful after a long day out! There were a few minor areas that could have been better that would have made it a perfect place to stay, such as better iron/board, water pressure of showers, bath in master suite didn’t work, some furnishings were a bit worn out but all in all we would come back and stay again therefore 5 stars!
The bones of the condo were good. Upgrades are definitely needed. Owners need to ensure that all TVs and Jacuzzi are working properly prior to guest arriving. Make sure towels are fresh because some of ours smelled like mildew. Because we arrived on Saturday, we lost a day of working equipment because the manager did not work on Sunday. Also, please provide enough paper products for the duration of one's stay. We had one roll of paper towels for five days and five people.
Very satisfied with the property and the management! We came as a group of 9 27-year-olds looking for a tropical trip to get away from winter weather. The space was very impressive and suited our needs perfectly. We had the perfect amount of space for 9 people, but wouldn't recommend having more than 9 or 10. The hottub was a huge hit, one of our favorite parts of the property. The view from the balcony is amazing of both the ocean and the lagoon.
Communication prior to the trip was great - I asked several questions about things to do and how to get groceries and they were very responsive and friendly. If we needed anything while on the trip they were also very on the ball getting back to us and making sure we had everything we needed. The hottub had issues the first night, but they brought in people to fix it immediately the next day so we never had to go a night without it being hot.
Everything that was recommended by the property managers was phenomenal. We had several meals at Restaurant by Joe across the street and it was great. We did the home cooking one night in our apartment and it was one of our favorite meals of the trip. We also went snorkeling with Mike and it was such a fun day - he took us to 3 different snorkeling spots around Isla Mujeres, then we spent an hour or 2 on golf carts on the island before they took us to another fun spot on the island and made us a tasty lunch. A full day of fun for only $65 a person, highly recommend!
Overall we had a fantastic weekend that was made possible by management. The property was well furnished and perfect to hang out in and there were so many fun things to do nearby. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks Tim, Megan, Paola and Abdiel for having us!
What an amazing property!! Great views throughout. We loved all the room in the place. The balcony offers breathtaking views and lots of space. The property managers are all so sweet and helpful!! We were so happy with everything in our stay. We took advantage of the in home cooking which was fantastic!! The fishing trip with Mike was also terrific!! Clean and well taken care of!
Had an amazing stay at this condo! All my guests including myself were extremely pleased. The place was exactly like the images obviously even better in person but the place was clean and Francis greeted us on site and did a thorough walk through of the apt. She was super sweet and helped every step of the way. Had a great experience from beginning with communicating with Tim who was very responsive and helpful to leaving and having the manager check on us before we left. Highly recommend!
The condo is right on the beach. The pool is not really conducive to kids. The checkin process was very slow. Overall, I would recommend the property if you are looking to stay on the beach.
What a gem. Great location. Spectacular Views. Our party of 10 had plenty of room and lots of amenities with lots to do. I enjoyed the special attention given to us by the local manager Francisca. She was amazing!! She helped make our stay comfortable and her Dine in cooking was the best. We will definitely come back!!
If you are going to Cancun with more than 4 ppl, this is the property for you. It was clean, comfortable, and had no issues. The view is amazing and the fact that we can take a cooler down to the pool and beach area is the cherry on top. Francis, the property manager, was very helpful and accommodating. She cooked lunch for us and honestly best quesadillas and fajitas I have had. She was also very quick to reply via email or whatsapp if I had any questions. On that note, Tim was also very quick to reply when I emailed him with questions. I am def going to try to book this property again when I visit Cancun. Thank you, Tim and Francis.

Nice place
We went there from March 3rd to 10, 2019. It was our 6th time in Cancun. We love big waves in Cancun. The bus is very easy to use and very effective. We can get in the bus in front of the hotel and we have not waited more than 25 secondes. The morning after our arrival, we went at the groceries in Cancun with Francis. She was very nice and gentle. The grocery was 24 km from the condo. However, there is a grocery in the hotel zone ( CHEDRAUI) and it is only at 12 km from the condo and you can go there easily by bus and come back with a taxi. The condo was nice and very large with a nice balcony. The A/C was ok everywhere except in the room with 2 beds. Francis promptly sent someone to check that 2-3 times, but it was still the same. The ceiling fans in 2 rooms was not working but it was repaired a few days later. The oven and the dishwasher were broken. Francis has been able to get the oven repaired the day after but it was not possible for the dishwasher.
We have bought the “all inclusive “ 2 days. The Mediterranean restaurant ( Almar) was very good. It was not possible to reserve for the japanese restaurant ( no places). The buffet restaurant was very ordinary ( certainly not like a five stars). All the employees were very nice and devoted.

Bad, bad, badest!!
very bad, the photos reflect no property and pool section, it is forbidden to open the sunshade at the pool, you can not order anything at the pool even if you want to pay. there is a lot of noise in the rooms because of the main street you have to put plugs to sleep, everything is totally disappointing. After more than 30 visits to Cancun has the worst place to stay. 1/10

Beautiful view! Great location!
This is a great condo and our welcome reception and interactions with the manager Francis were very warm. Everything was great about it except that twice the power to the air conditioning failed causing us to have two uncomfortable nights that we weren’t expecting. However the manager Francis arranged to have service people repair the problem quickly the next morning which we very much appreciated! Thank you Francis!
