Peaceful Mexican Village Getaway
Shelley's place was everything we hoped for. It was off the beaten path, away from tourist traffic and activities, but close enough to access the beaches and unique villages in the area. We were on the go a lot, but we could have easily spent much of the week comfortably relaxing there, enjoying the quiet front and back patios and the park and cenote across the street. This is a Mexican casita that feels authentic to the area, and there are a lot of nice touches. We loved the local artwork and vibrant colors. The kitchen is newly remodeled and well-stocked, and it's easy to prepare simple meals. It was very clean, and the king bed was comfy! We made use of the two provided beach chairs and beach towels for our trips to local beaches. There's plenty of privacy on the back patio, and we loved the option to take advantage of the outdoor shower after beach trips. Shelley's communication was great, and she offered a ton of information to help us feel at home and learn about the area. When there was an unexpected problem with the A/C, she was on it right away and worked with her on-site manager to quickly fix it. We felt very safe in the quiet little neighborhood and enjoyed exploring the village of Chemuyil. It's a bit of a drive to Tulum, so look carefully at the map if you want to be close to Tulum activities. If you want a peaceful and authentic experience away from the tourists, you will likely fall in love with this special little casita!
