Why People Come Back

Calm, Shallow Water
The Gulf here is flat most mornings. Good for kids, good for a long swim, good for doing nothing.
Close to Mérida
Half an hour by car. Day trips to the city, cenotes, and Uxmal are easy from here.
Seafood Worth Eating
The waterfront restaurants serve what came in that morning. Order the fish tacos and a cold beer.

The house was AMAZING. It was unlike anywhere we have stayed before. It was spacious enough for our group of 14 but still felt intimate. I seriously couldn’t dream up a better stay and already want to start planning another trip back! Not to mention the staff to help cook and clean - just unreal. It is definitely going to be hard to go back to regular rentals after experiencing this wander - specifically this property! Highly recommended.

Our stay was amazing! The house was absolutely beautiful and perfect for our big family. Everyone had their own space and bathroom, which made our stay so comfortable. We loved spending time in the pool, and the home had every amenity we needed and more. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully stocked. We would definitely stay here again!

This is place is absolutely beautiful. It’s in a safe neighborhood but you have to enjoy walking to really enjoy the amenities. Uber eats delivery is available but uber rides are not. Used indrive app to get around.
