  To start, Mimi is such a lovely accomodating hostess! I felt welcomed and taken care of. The cabana was PERFECT for my needs- spacious and airy and light, (and totally clean) ! Supreme location --Right ON the beach, but protected from the wind... Also, in the most ideal location on the beach road- next to the best restaurants, close to yoga and salsa sundays! Honestly, I can't wait to go back, and will DEFINITELY be staying there again...

  This house is absolutely fantastic. we enjoyed our stay there a lot. the location is as advertised. Tulum is just unbeatable. if you like cancun - hotel - zone, you probably don't like it, but for everybody who enjoys individual travelling with great restaurants and fantastic beaches, please try Tulum! And Mimi and Richard are fantastic hosts with great tips. Just do what they say and you will have a wonderful trip in Yucatan. here some personal highlights: snorkeling in Yal-ku lagoon,... More »

  We really enjoyed staying at Pico Beach. Mimi was a great host and even helped us find a local doctor when our 7-year old caught an ear infection on our last day in Tulum. Mimi advised on us all the best places to visit for snorkeling, swimming, eating and enjoying all Tulum has to offer. She even let us borrow a sea kayak, which was a lot of fun. She shared her delicious Mexican coffee too. The house was terrific. It was very spacious with a clean kitchen and open floor plan. Upstairs... More »

  We found the place exactly as the picture. Richard has been very helpful helping us to settle and giving us all kind of advices . Should we go back to Playa,we wouldn't think twice to contact Airbnb and Richard to rent the same apartment. Thanks, Renee and Frank

  What an amazing experience! We loved Tulum and Richard, Mimi and Pico were incredible hosts. The house lived up to all expectations and beyond. Pico Beach was easily the nicest beach we saw in our 8 days of running around Rivera Maya. The house is far enough away from the touristy resorts to not be bothered by the masses (yet not too far, our friends stayed at Mezzanine and we visited them in 8-10 minutes by car) and very close to amazing "foodie" dining spots such as Hartwood and...

  We stayed here for 5 days. The house is a 10 min stroll from an awesome beach right near Mamita's Beach Club. It's located a bit off the crazy-busy touristy path that crosses Constituyentes. We really liked the house...it was quite comfortable and you can actually see the gulf from the house which we found to be a pleasant feature. We really enjoyed the gentle, warm sea breeze that constantly flows through the house We parked our car right outside the house across from an empty lot and... More »

  What a magical experience. The pictures we saw online prior to our trip did not do this house justice - it is truly right on the water, amplified sounds of crystal blue water crashing on the most perfect white sand. This house balances the amazing raw jungle surroundings with a resort-like secure feeling - while still preserving the privacy we were looking for. The house resides in the heart of Tulum Beach - walking distance to amazing restaurants, spas, yoga and some great beach bars.... More »

  Tulum beaches are really wonderful and this place is just 100m away from the beach, BUT the place wasn't very clean (sheets) and wasn't cleaned at all during our 1 week stay, even though Richard said it would be every 3-4 days. And: the shower didn't work, so we had to take shower at the beach. On 4th day of our stay we finally met Richard, who gave us some restaurant tips and the yoga pass for the gym which is downtown (taxi-trip necessary).

  Stayed here only for two nights on a recent holiday in Tulum. The apartment is great for a budget accommodation, right across the street from the beach. Richard was really great - we had a pretty long day of traveling with delays and rental and bus drama (made it to Tulum in the end though) and Richard actually picked us up at the bus station in Tulum and took us to the beach so that we did not have to pay for the taxi! Very awesome of him. He also pointed out a few restaurants in town that... More »

  This is a great spot, conveniently located near the beach and cheaper than many of the beachside hotels. Richard and his dad gave great recommendations for local food and an activities. No door on the bathroom so go with folks you feel comfortable with. :)
