  We stayed for a week at Casa Isla and had a wonderful, relaxing experience. The house is beautiful, grand and comfortable, with considerable privacy and amazing ocean views. We were looking for peace and quiet and relief from the hustle bustle of city life, and we got it in spades. We rented a golf cart for the week and it was easy to get around the small island and sample many of the nice restaurants there. Overall, it was paradise.

  I stayed at Casa Isla for four nights on a girls' trip to celebrate our 30th birthdays. It could not have been more perfect. The view was incredible, and we spent pretty much every day just sitting by the pool enjoying it. Although hard to believe, the pictures honestly did not do this house justice. It was also great to be able to call home for free and check in with kids, husbands, work, etc. We found some amazing restaurants on the island, and Ron (the house manager) will set you up with a taxi driver, snorkeling, or anything else that you need. Kit was extremely friendly and very easy to work with. I definitely hope to go back some day!

  Owner response: Thanks, Kelly. I'm so happy you enjoyed yourselves! Kit

  Our family (5 months old to 63 years old) just got back from spending an amazing week at Casa Isla. We had done major research on the island as well as the property and our only complaint is that we were only there for one week. Casa Isla was perfect for us.As soon as you open the front door, you know you made the right decision. . . .beautiful space and beautiful view straight thru the movable wall of windows to the infinity pool and turquoise water and beyond views of Cancun. The bedrooms were large enough for cribs and all had plenty of closet and storage space. The living areas let us all spread out but still be together.We had all our meals outside at the large dining room table by the pool and spent lots of time swinging ourselves with the babies in the chairs right outside the living room.All the bathrooms were very spacious and it was nice to have a washer and dryer at our disposal. The roof top deck was a perfect place to start or end the day. The pool is the focal point of the outdoor area and part of it had a shallow shelf that was perfect for our 15 month old grandson. We loved being on the south side of the island. . . .quiet and serene, but also loved jumping into our golf cart and spending time at North Beach, Zama Beach Club, Hidalgo (downtown area) and trying out lots of restaurants. . . .loved Fredy's, Mango's, Olivia's, Picus to name a few. Actually we even stopped at places only frequented by locals and they were great too. Although we really enjoyed exploring the whole island, Casa Isla was perfect in so many ways, you could easily never leave it.

  My husband and I and our family just returned from Isla Mujeres and we stayed at Mexican Zen. It was absolutely amazing and the pictures do not do it justice! Except for the color of the water and pool, they really do look that blue! The house also seemed alot bigger in person than in the pictures. We had 8 staying in the house and we all had plenty of room so no one seemed like they were on top of eachother! The outside living area and pool area was perfect, and my favorite part was laying on the roof at night listening to the waves! It was also great to get away from all the downtown life and come home to such an amazing house, it was like a getaway all on its own!! I would recommend this property to anyone!!!!

  We came for my daughters wedding, and couldn't believe that the picture on the internet actually didn't do the place any justice! It is much more beautiful in person-nicest place I've ever stayed. And the property mgr Ron was the greatest. He was available for us 24-7 for any questions or needs we had. Best place hands down on the island.

  We stayed in this spectacular home for 3 weeks and it truly felt like "home" but with a MAGNIFICENT view! This is a great house with all the amenities of your own home. We loved every moment here and will certainly look for any excuse to return! The house managers were always helpful and you simply can't get a bad meal in town due to the fabulous recommendations we were provided with. We had a great time!

  Stayed with friends in May 2010. It is beautiful and these pictures don't do it justice. it is a must! Luxury and beauty and the master bath is INSANE. The view and pool and top deck are breath-taking.

  We rented Casa Isla for a family reunion (ages 11 to 75) and loved it. The house was divine - tasteful and spacious -- and we loved the stunning views. The location is perfect too, within walking distance of a few shops, a national park and restaurant. It was a little bit of heaven for all of us!

  Casa Isla is an absolute paradise, a million miles away from any cares and concerns of everyday life. Sitting in the indoor or outdoor living room or the outdoor dining room (or just taking a shower!), it is almost impossible to take one's eyes off the incredibly blue water. How can the color of the infinity pool match so perfectly? Short walks to the nearby eating places made everything especially easy. This is a marvelous and luxurious destination for relaxing and re-energizing.

  The sunsets off the outdoor dining room, the sound of the waves lapping on the beach below, with Cancun sparkling in the distant background, all contribute to the perfection of the location. The new, spacious home is cozy and comfortable and a wonderful place to relax and forget your worries. A wonderful home with everything we needed to come back to after traveling around the island, seeing the sites, meeting the local people, shopping, and enjoying fun Mexican cuisine and atmosphere. I highly recommend this awesome place and definitely plan to return again soon. We weren't sure where the infinity pool ends and the ocean views begin.
