Baca vacation rentals

Accomodations were 5 star from start to finish! Beautiful view…. Warm water and attentive host.

Three things makes this the most wonderful VRBO rental ever: an incredible location, a fabulous house, and the best host we've ever had. It's like going to your best friends house that you've always thought was the greatest AND having your best friend at your beck and call to help with whatever you need. If you are looking for an ocean holiday free from the crowds of Cancun but still close to great restaurants and long beach walks, this is the place. Our host Francisco was tireless in offering help, advice, suggestions, and making us feel totally at home!

Selected this property with the hope of peaceful seclusion, which is what we received. Would stay here again if we return to the area. Caretakers were excellent and almost immediately respond when we had a question.

Villa Las Tunas was our first experience in the Progreso area. We chose it for privacy and peacefulness and were not disappointed. We often had the beach to ourselves as far as the eye could see. At our requeat, Juan had a few items stocked for us until we could get our first full grocery order and the cost was very reasonable. A car is almost a must as the nearest major grocery stores are almost 20 km away (which we knew). There is an OXXO store about halfway to Progresso. We found Bodega Aurrera to be the best for produce and meat and there is also a Soriana directly across the street as an alternate. The Villa itself offers lots of space, good lighting and a/c that keeps the sleeping areas cool when needed, however we often found the master bedroom was fine with just the breeze from the Gulf at night. Water pressure in the master bedroom shower is a bit less than we are used to at home so we often used the main floor full bath instead which was fine. The hot water takes a bit of time to appear as I think it is an "on demand" system but be patient and it will warm up. We happened to run out of propne our first night there so it was a chilly shower and tuna sandwiches for dinner. Minor inconvenience and Juan was there first thing the next day with new tanks and apologies.He had told us that he knew the propane was getting low when we arrived and needed topping up - just a bit lower than the estimate. The kitchen is adequately stock with cookware and dishes. A few extra wineglasses would be nice ( 3 total). We also like plastic glasses to be available for beside the pool just in case of an accident. Bottled water is recommended for drinking and we were given 2 large water cooler sized bottles to get us started. Refills can be obtained at the OXXO. Swimming in the Gulf was enjoyable - a bit of a hike out past the second sandbar at low tide as noted in other reviews - and there can be a bit of a current depending on winds and tides as with any large body of water, but at no time did we find it a problem. The plunge pool is very refreshing after a Gulf swim or some time in the sun. The area felt very safe. This was our first time renting a car in Mexico and the highways are much like we have at home with less potholes. The main highway from Merida to the beach would put many expressways in Canada and the US to shame. Be aware that lane markings and stop signs in Progreso are only suggestions however ! We would rent from Juan again in a heartbeat !
