Family in paradise!
Our stay at the beautiful Secret Jewel property met our expectations. This jungle property is the perfect natural setting . The pool, was cleaned daily and just sparkled in both sunlight and moonlight. Then a short walk through the coconut palms led to the magnificent white sand beach and vivid blue ocean. (There was no sea grass). We were party of 14 plus three babies here to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary and it was wonderful. There are lots of quiet spaces to be alone or together as wished. This property is very private and safe. The residence is set back from the beach in the cool of the palm trees. The 6 bedrooms with bathrooms worked well for our group. The beds are comfortable only double size not queen. Linens provided are adequate. The kitchens have minimal cooking utensils and could do with a sharp knife , wine glasses would be a nice addition, and fresh tea towels daily. We had to ask. With three toddlers dropping food everywhere we were always asking to use a broom. David and Vanessa, the caretakers are very pleasant and accommodating but not always available. On two occasions we enjoyed Chef Ishmael’s delicious meals . Very good food, beautifully prepared and presented. We highly recommend using this service. Our family likes to cook but it was very difficult . This was a trip of a lifetime for our family. and we all have glorious memories of our time at Secret Jewel Beach. — swimming in the warm, clear ocean water, watching waves from the crow’s nest, taking a late night dip in the beautifully lit jungle pool., and telling stories while stargazing from the rooftop. Thank you Daniel.

5 Stars for outdoor experience, the condo a 2 Star
You will love this gem of the Mexican Riviera IF your priority is soaking up all the outdoor experience. The condo is in a tropical jungle with beautiful palm/coconut tree lined path to a private beach. It’s stunning. The outdoor pool is clean and well kept. There are hammocks near a flowing water fountain. The private chef cooking service is wonderful (he has a private outdoor kitchen). The on-site workers were responsive and helpful. (Ask for the kayak! Ask for fresh coconuts to drink!) The ocean view Palapa is wonderful for morning coffee, yoga, afternoon drinks and evening games. We saw iguana and so many birds and maybe even a monkey in our 8 days here. My real caution is the condition of the condo. I expected old and dated as previous reviews noted, but the kitchen and bathrooms are run down. I’m an outdoor camper and they still surprised me. The towels for bathing and pool are good. The fridges very clean. The washer/dryer upstairs very clean. The Wifi and TV worked well. The downstairs kitchen is so bad, though. There are pots/pans/dishes/silverware but without a dishwasher or tidy sink area It would be very difficult to manage meals for a group here.(I washed all things before I used them). There are NO pantry items so plan a grocery run for staples of coffee, coffee filters, sugar, salt, paper towels, counter spray cleaner, etc. Our group of 8 adults enjoyed our time here and there is so much space! But if you are hoping for luxury or resort style living you will want to look elsewhere. We enjoyed getting to know the owner and see his vision for the adjoining properties he owns. All the locals were pleasant. We used the Covid testing company they rec. and they were very professional. We rented a car and we’re so glad we did. A 10 min drive to Puerto Moreles allowed for a grocery run and site seeing. If you don’t do chef service, the restaurants here were very good (and some seat with ocean views).

I'd call it a value property
Everything was good, except that the cleaning crew doesn't actually scrub down the bathrooms and they also only use organic cleaning products so be prepared to see/feel left over residues in the shower, toilet, sinks, dishes, floor. I don't like to scrub either, so I spray bleach, let it sit and rinse, but they don't want the use of harsh products (which I get, but let's get some scrubbing action then). In a place that is a rental, hosting multiple people, this is crucial. Only its overlooked here. Other than that, the host was great. The location was good, very private and a great dining room to host nice family dinners. And the chef was AMAZING! Same with the yoga instructor!

Perfect little place
Our favorite part of this property was the outdoor area. The garden, pool area, and private beach in the backyard were all so gorgeous. The property was as described and everything worked properly. The on-site maintenance(?) man, Ismael was so wonderful and found/helped us with everything we needed if it wasn’t available in the house. The owner of the house was also very kind and helpful. We had 15 adults and there was more than enough space for everyone. The house could do with a few more kitchen gadgets/utensils and cookware but other than that everything was perfect. There was a washer and dryer in the unit as well which was a huge plus for our big group. I highly recommend using Sergio for your transportation/tours as well. Extremely friendly and helpful and made our experience much more personable and fun. Thank you all!
