My wife and I just had a perfect vacation at CPM. CPM is immaculate and amply stocked, the beach receives TLC, the water sublime, the bay beautiful, sea breezes wafting ..... Soliman Bay is a special place, isolated by a mangrove swamp, one road in and out, it is in a pristine state and wonderful for snorkeling and kayaking. The marine life is healthy in the bay. The sunrises are spectacular and the stars are breathtaking. Within minutes of CPM there are restaurants, Mayan ruins, more beaches, Mayan villages, cenotes, shopping ..... This is a place to relax, breath deeply and enjoy life.... Take a chance and plan a visit to CPM. The owner is a first edition.
Owner response:We thank you for Choosing Casa Playa Maya for your vacation and we do hope that you will return as you and your wife, Gary, are always among out favorite quests.

We hope we will be able to do this every year..thanks Bill for your lovely spot.

We spent 3 weeks at this wonderful place right on the beach and we had a great time. Our dog was welcome and it was very relaxing to know that we were able to travel with her and not leave her at home with a dogsitter. I loved the hammocks, the free kayaks, snorcheling and the peaceful athmoshere. The property was clean and the helpers picked fresh coconuts for us, right from the palm ;-) ahhhhhh!!! Bill helped us to find everything we were looking for and he even got us some special organic food in town that we couldn't find. He was open, generous and gave us important information about the area. He has a huge library that he freely shared with us whenever we wanted to get new books...and we read a LOT! We loved this vacation and we often talk about this place with friends. Thank you, Bill! We definitely will come back!
Owner response:Ahh Shucks Gila, it was our pleasure and we all loved Sweetie your dog Bonni my dog still talks about her. Be well up there in Santa Fe and come back with the entire Town. Cheers, Bill

The bay is heavenly and thats just above water! Under water, the snorkelling is amazing. Loads of brightly coloured marine life, rays and turtles dancing and shimmering in the warm water and hanging out in the near private 600 yard reef complete with some great coral. The house is hand built and decorated eclectically yet thoughtfully. This is authentic cool not veneered chic - its imperfections adding to its perfection. Lydia the maid doubles as gastronomic miracle worker if you like authentic Mexican food. And if you like fresh seafood, walk 10 minutes up the bay to the deservedly famous beach shack that serves the best ceviche and fresh seafood we came across in the area. This is a peaceful enclave with no pass through tourism but If you need excitement or scarlet red tourist crowds, the main attractions are a short drive away as are the uber chic restaurants and boutique hotels of Tullum. Wallets emptied you can escape back to this delightful place. Bill the owner/manager is a delightful guy and a local Google So go here but not during April or August or Christmas as we want it!!
Owner response:Ash and Family , It was our distinct pleasure and THANKS for bringing the Queen with you. I think she enjoyed the snorkeling. I honestly do! Thanks again and come back! Cheers, Bill

We were greeted by the affable señor Bill upon our arrival and were tended to by his attentive staff our entire stay. The property is AMAZING. The sand a mere 2 steps down from the rear deck! Everything necessary for a perfect vacation is on the property including Pedro and Lidia who attend to your every need. For a couple of pesos Lidia will prepare whatever food you have in a DELICIOUS manner. There are kayaks for paddling around the reef protected bay and the beach is raked clean each morning. Had to imagine a better spot! We'll be coming back!!!
Owner response:Why thank you Mr. V. We try to treat our guests with respect, kindness and show them a super fine time even if they are from Los Angeles. Come back anytime, we loved having you

11 adults and 8 children stayed here over New Year's. The property is right on the beach and is truly as advertised. The beds are comfortable, the casa and casitas are charming and the beach is beautiful. There is good snorkeling right off the beach in a protected bay. Kayaks come with the property and are great for exploring the bay. The housekeeper, Lidia did a great job and we hired her to cook for us as well. She provided excellent meals without us leaving the casa with 8 kids. Bill was an excellent host and provided a wonderful place for a family reunion. Really liked not having to go off property to find a beach and snorlkeling.We made day trips to ruins and a cenote, This is a great spot. Can't wait to return
Owner response:We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay here at Casa Playa Maya. Thanks for the kind remarks and return as soon as you can. We loved hosting your Holiday Vacation. Cheers, Bill

Urlaub im Paradies

Urlaub im Paradies, wer in Mexiko abseits des Touristentrubels Ruhe und Entspannung sucht, ist bei Bill genau richtig. Durch unsere Freundin Maria sind wir an diesem paradiesischem Ort gelandet. Das wunderschöne große, runde Haus steht an einer abgelegenen blauen Lagune mit wundervollen weißen, feinem Sandstrand. Hier kann man Schnorcheln, mit einem der hauseigenen Kajaks im karibischen Meer paddeln, am einsamen Strand spazieren oder Vögel beobachten. Abends sitzt man dann mit einem selbstgemixten Cocktail auf der Veranda und genießt die Weite und Ruhe, das Rauschen des Meeres und das silberne glitzern des Mondes auf dem Wasser. Das Haus bietet allerlei Bequemlichkeiten und Komfort. Eine sehr gut funktionale Küche ermöglicht ein schnell zubereitetes Mahl. Musikanlage und bequeme Sitzecken sorgen auch bei schlechtem Wetter für ein gutes Feeling. Das Haus hat eine Rundumverglasung, dadurch ist ein ständiger Blick auf das Meer möglich. Die riesigen Betten sind sehr behaglich und rückenschonend. Die sehr gepflegte Anlage lässt keine Wünsche offen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Man kann jederzeit mit seinen Fragen und Wünschen zu Bill gehen. Er kümmert sich um alles! Bill hat für alle Probleme eine Lösung. Ein Mietauto ist empfehlenswert, da die Straße 1,5 km und der nächste Supermarkt 11 km entfernt sind. In der näheren Gegend kann man viele antike Stätten und Cenoten erkunden. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Wir sind schon viel in der Welt herumgekommen, aber so ein schönes Urlaubsnest hatten wir noch nie. Bill, hab nochmals vielen Dank für Alles!
