About this property

Las Tunas Beachfront Home

Las Tunas is a private beachfront home in Telchac Puerto, designed for guests seeking comfort, space, and tranquility. Surrounded by more than 300 coconut trees, the house and its private pool sit on a spacious property with open views of the dunes and the Gulf of Mexico—no wall-to-wall neighbors, just nature and sea.

This is not a typical rental property; it is a well-loved home, thoughtfully furnished with comfortable sofas, beds, and inviting living spaces. On your arrival day, a hot, home-cooked meal will be waiting for you, allowing you to settle in and relax from the moment you arrive.

The home features three air-conditioned bedrooms, including a master bedroom with two queen beds and an ensuite bathroom, a second bedroom with two twin beds, and a third bedroom with a king-size bed. A large, fully equipped kitchen with ocean views, an indoor living and dining area, and outdoor terrace lounges create ideal spaces for gathering and unwinding.

Telchac Puerto is a small, quiet, and friendly fishing village, perfect for travelers looking for a peaceful and uncrowded destination. The beaches are ideal for long walks and year-round swimming in clean, calm Gulf waters, free of rocks and strong currents. Guests enjoy ceiling fans throughout the home, air conditioning in the bedrooms, and an electricity allowance of 15 kW per day.

An international airport is located in Mérida with direct flights from Houston, Miami, and Mexico City, and many guests choose to fly into Cancún and drive approximately four hours. Having a car is recommended for a more comfortable stay.

Our prices include all fees—no hidden charges.

Please note: the property is not available in August, or the week before and after Easter.

Great beach house on the shore

Spacious and comfortable with very comfortable beds. It's a dreamy location as you are steps from the gulf where the water is perfect for swimming. The host was super helpful before and during our stay, and the onsite caretaker is great, too. A delicious lentil stew is provided your first night, and that was very welcome after many restaurant meals in Merida.

Great Property

This is an amazing location and property.It has it all and you will find Judy the property owner and the property manager Franciso wonderful people to deal with. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommended booking some time at Los Tunas if you want to get away from the tourist crowds. Lots to see and do if you don't mind traveling an hour or two by car( cenotes,Mayan temples, Flamingos etc.).

Very special place

We've stayed in this (sleepy, beautiful) area of the Yucatan a few times and Judy's place is by far the most well-kept, magical home we've booked. From the lentil (we're vegetarian) dinner that met us when we arrived, and Francisco's attention and kindness throughout, to the private, lovely outdoor space -- every detail was so thoughtful. Judy is a great communicator and ambassador for the region. We had Christmas here with our grown kids -- very special memory for us. Francisco even gave us a box of shell decorations for a branch tree. Thanks for an amazing break in this wonderful part of Mexico.

Amazing place

The pictures don’t do it justice. Everything from the beach to the pool were perfect. Judy is a wealth of information and made the who process seamless. When we got the Francisco took it from there. Regular cleanings, we got him to prepare food for us a few times and we were never disappointed. He lives at the front of the property but you never really see him. We found it easy to find even late at night. Lots of options for food also. We will be back very soon. We have stayed in a lot of vrbo’s and this was one of the best.

A little piece of paradise

Our family was looking for a place away from the crowds and on the water. We found one in Judy’s home. She was always there for tips on good places to shop and eat. Francisco, the caretaker, was very friendly and always had a smile for us. Though we didn’t know much Spanish, he was really good with Google translate. The house itself had everything we needed to cook our meals. What impressed me was there were several ways to make a good cup of coffee! And, as I told Judy, the home had a very relaxing vibe to it. It was just what our family was looking for. Thank you Judy, for sharing!

Hidden Gem

The only reason I fear placing this review is others will find this piece of heaven and I want it for myself alone!! The house is perfect, and service from both the owner and the property manager was awesome. You will find everything you need to make your stay truly comfortable. We received a welcome meal on our arrival and decided to hire the manager's wife to cook breakfast for us during our stay (which was a magnificent idea). Pool temperature was ideal. One of the best parts of our trip (which have nothing to do with the property itself but with its location) is that we got to experience the birth of tens of turtles while walking on the beach (totally out of the blue) Restaurants, convenience stores, pharmacy, all close by (2 mile radius)

Exceeded expectations

My family and I had a great time at Las Tunas. The spacious house and property exceeded all of our expectations. After several busy days exploring the Yucatán it was such a treat walking into Judy’s inviting beach house. We were all pleasantly surprised. The pictures don’t do it justice. We just wanted to spend our days relaxing at the house. The home and backyard have everything we needed to enjoy ourselves. The pool was perfect for our family and the yard/ back patio make the perfect space to lounge. We have young children and Judy was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. She even directed us to the nearest doctor when our baby got sick. To top it off the little town of Telchac is very quaint. We went into town everyday for groceries and exploring. The people were all very friendly and our 4-yr-old had a blast playing at the playground in the town square with the local children every evening. The is a great home for all.

We had a fabulous 14-day stay. The house and property are exactly as advertised. Judy was excellent, in sharing a colourful guide to Telchac Puerto prior to our arrival, to sending a pic of Francisco the property caretaker (so you know who you're greeting), to making sure the hot meal provided on our first night met any dietary restrictions. The hot meal was wonderful and more than enough for the two of us for a few meals. Beds and furniture were comfy and the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you are used to at home. Honestly, the whole house is equipped with everything you need and it feels like a home away from home because it is one. Towels (lots!), shampoo, bodywash, games, cooking oils, coffee, ice were all there for us on arrival. Francisco was such a gem, and without perfect English manages to make sure your stay and everything in the house is running smoothly for you! Roll with the punches and ebbs and flows here. This is not Canada or the US with unlimited resources. The wifi can be spotty on occasion, there is not unlimited water on demand, the entire town may suffer a power outage for most of a day (as it did when we were there), and there will be mosquitos. Such is life. None of these things are controllable. Respect your resources available, and don't let any lack skew your stay at a very welcoming and lovely home - and have fun!Lastly, I would say that apart from the sand potentially, I see this house as accessible and mobility device friendly.

Las Tunas over the New Year

We've visited the Yucatan from the USA several times and Las Tunas is our favorite stay so far. The house itself is very spacious and well maintained. The most amazing feature is the outdoor space which is very thoughtfully designed and exquisitely maintained. Several different lounging areas in which to seek shade or sun as desired and enjoy the birds. The beach is fabulous. We visited in high season but saw very few people and almost no power craft in the water - very peaceful. It feels like you could walk along the beach forever - the beach walk to Telchac Puerto was quite doable for us. Wish we had more time to explore the area. Angelito's restaurant is a must. The onsite caretaker is an added bonus and if we stayed longer would have taken more advantage of his knowledge of the area. For us, Xcambo ruins were much more enjoyable than Tulum. The mangrove boat tour at Manglar de san Cristano wasn't spectacular but worth the short drive and small cost. Pig Beach near Progreso was touristy as expected but worth a short visit. There were conflicting internet reports of when the pigs would be let out. We were there Jan 5 2023 and they were let out 11:00 am sharp for 30 minutes. The only chance of interacting with the pigs was buying some feed for 20 pesos. If you are looking for a vacation oriented towards amenities and staff fluent in English, I don't recommend the area. If you are comfortable enjoying friendly, small town Mexico - this is an awesome property!

We stayed for 5 weeks, it was a very quiet vacation. At our stay we saw the neighbours a total of 4 times. Judy our host was easy to communicate with helped us get a dish setup for some Olympic watching.also gave us good contacts for groceries and restaurants. The village was very friendly.

Absolutely perfect!

From being greeted by Gaby, caretaker of property, who made us a delicious lentil stew upon arrival to the leisurely beach strolls to the comfortable beds, this property is fantastic. Judy, owner of the property, was in touch before, during and after our stay. And, she is a wealth of information. We have rented many properties in the U.S. and the Caribbean, but this was the saddest to leave. For certain, we will return!

A lovely month in Telchac beach home

We had a wonderful stay in Las Tunas. Judy is a fantastic host who answered all our inquiries for the months leading up to our stay and was also available to help us while we were there when needed. The house is large, comfortable and well laid out. The best part is the outdoor living area which we enjoyed everyday. The outdoor seating area has couches, the large dining table, bbq and the yard full of hammocks with a pool. Although the house is on the beach, there are trees and shrubs that keep the house private from the people walking by on the beach. The kitchen is also large and has all the items you may need to cook and entertain. Being there in the winter means there are not many people around so it’s very quiet. The small village of Telchac is a couple of minutes away and has many convenient stores, fruit and vegetable market, bakery, fresh fish market, and limited restaurants (for the winter season). Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much. The couple that lives on the large property, in their own house, were always there to help us when needed. Thank you, Judy, for a wonderful month away from our cold Canadian winter!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend you and your lovely home to anyone.

Home Away from Home

This beachside property is wonderful. Judy has thought of everything with care and attention to detail - it has all the amenities one needs and having an onsite caretaker to ask questions of is invaluable. This is a home, not just a rental - and as such it is warm and inviting. And the location allows you to feel away from it all, yet, still close enough to do day trips for exploration. We would 100% rent here again. Can't say enough!

A Great Gem on the Beach!

This beach home is a gem. This rental feels more like a home than a sterile rental; it's so easy to get into the beach routine here. Judy's home is comfortable and inviting. Overall, the house is as pictured, but the photos don't do it justice, I would say we were pleasantly surprised. The home is bigger and more open than we thought. There is more to it than the photos give. The kitchen is great for prepping, cooking and the eat-in bar area was great for a snack. The kitchen is fully stocked, all you need is your food. Even washing the dishes is enjoyable- you can see the beach from the sink. The dining table and living room area are comfortable. You can seat a lot of people. The wrap around porch is large with a number of different areas to enjoy- tables, chairs, sofas, hammocks. It is a nice large porch- great for entertaining or reading a book. The house could easily and comfortably accommodate six people with lots of space for everyone. Two of the bedrooms are down a hall and the main bedroom is off the side of the living area- so, you can be separate if you would like. The pool is larger than pictured, it has nice easy steps for access as well as a floating area good for putting your feet in or for kids to splash in. We felt very private here-even though it is a beachfront home and you can see the water from almost all angles, it is private. The neighbors are far enough away and the house is set just so so that you can see the water but people along the beach cannot see in. And oh, the beach. We love this area of the Yucatan because it is calm and quiet- the water and the people. Along this stretch of beach, you will not find many people at all- literally. The surf is very calm and you can walk out in knee or waist-high water for a few hundred yards. Judy was very good about communicating and she was accommodating. She is the type of host I hope others will try to be. The on-sight property manager, Gaby is good to work with, keeps out of the way but is available if you have any questions or issues. Also, her dog, Penelope is the cutest. As our experience with all the other beach rentals, make sure to bring bug repellent because sometimes it is needed. Without doubt, I believe this beach house is a very good value and I will return.

Wow, breathtaking

A stunning beautiful location in a house that despite thousands of miles from home, felt secure and comfortable. There are many small Mexican villages surrounding so many small shops and bakeries. Peaceful, tranquil and everything needed to revitalise. Driving (despite obsession with speed bumps) is easy as long straight and quiet roads. Highly recommended.

Loved sitting out by the pool under the palm trees listening to the waves crash on the beach!

Everything about our experience was wonderful! Dealing with Judy was a pleasure and the helpful and pleasant caretakers on the property were lovely. If you are looking for a quiet getaway, this is the spot! The town is very sleepy and there isn’t a lot going on, but that is exactly what we wanted. You can walk the beach for hours and not see a soul—a far cry from the beaches in Playa Del Carmen, for example. We loved the serenity. The house is comfortable and stocked with everything you might need, especially the kitchen. Bring your bathing suit and a stack of books and you’re good to go!

It was a pleasure and relief to host Cliff and Karen. Five days into their month long stay we had a major cold front hit which wreaked havoc all along the coast. Our internet antena was blown over and took out the water lines leaving them without water for hours and internet for a full week.. and they never complained.

Beautiful, peaceful family home to get away from it all

We enjoyed our holiday at Las Tunas with our 2 teenage boys. The house was actually more spacious that we thought it was from the photos (usually, we find the opposite to be true). Kitchen was fully stocked - I usually travel with my own kitchen knife, some plastic containers and other basics as some rentals are pretty bare - as Judy mentions, this is a home that is used rather than a full time rental so it has real kitchen amenities It was amazing to grab a beach chair and pull it on to the sand and you can go hours without seeing a single person. Nothing but you and the waves lapping at your feet. The ocean is very shallow and sandy bottom so you can go a long ways out without getting in past your chest. Afternoons spent on the 4 hammocks by the pool or the wonderful patio lazing away - perfect! You will definitely need a car as the only thing within walking distance is Bella Mar, a seaside beach restaurant. Otherwise, Telchac Puerto is about 3 km away with a well stocked grocery store for your basics, morning market for your fruits/veggies and small local restaurants. Or you can head into Progreso (about 40 min away) for a large grocery store and 25 minutes more into Merida where you can get everything you get back home. Miguel and Gaby are the caretakers and they live right on the property which is nice - we had an issue with the gas tank running out on the hot water heater. We just walked over and Miguel had a new gas tank within the 1/2 hour. Another time, I couldn't figure out how to turn on the oven so again, Miguel came and showed me the secret.... Lovely people and it's so nice having them around. Just know that Miguel speaks some English and Gaby probably understands but doesn't speak so it helps for you to know some Spanish to interact with them - although Google translate probably will get you through. The washing machine is not in the house - it's over at Gaby's so you'll need to go and ask to use it or have her do the laundry for you - not a big deal - very reasonable prices - but something to note. A wonderful time and a beautiful home. Having rented homes in Bonaire, Costa Rica, Malta, Paris and Istanbul, Turkey the last couple of years, this was a great rental.

Peace and Tranquility in Telchac

We arrived at this beautiful location for a ten day stay and were greeted by Gaby and Miguel, who helped us get familiar with the property and later brought over some delicious Lentil stew and side dishes. The house is very easy to find and is just a short jaunt to Telchac or Progresso, so you have easy access to all your grocery needs or if you prefer restuarants. The house was very well equipped with your basics such as coffee filters, spices and oil, not to mention tin foil etc for cooking and storage so you don't have to panic when you get there, but can just add to the supplies later for the next guests! The bedrooms and bathrooms were all very clean and comfortable and the front patio and pool area were awesome! Miguel and Gaby are always quick to help with questions or issues (hot water ran out and Miguel fixed it in a Jiff!) or even laundry! Thank you Gaby! you cannot go wrong with this home as Judy, Gaby and Miguel make it perfect! Thanks Judy for letting us stay in your beautiful home and thanks to Gaby and Miguel for the hospitality!!

We loved the house and felt at home immediately with all the personal touches.

We loved passing away the days in the shade of the porch with the northers (winds)keeping us cool. The house is warm and friendly feeling, stocked with everything you need. It has a cozy Beachy vibe. The beach was lovely and deserted, you could walk for miles collecting shells and watching the Pelicans fish. Afternoon margaritas under the palapa next to the pool, what else could you ask for.

Paradise at the beach!

We absolutely loved being at Las Tunas. Because it's Judy's home, not just a rental, we felt very much at home. The house is spacious, well-appointed, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The bedrooms are very roomy. A family or couples traveling together would find plenty of space. The yard is exquisite. Yes, the picture is real! My favorite spot was in the hammock under the palapa, next to the very fragrant bushes. The beach itself is not visible from the yard, although you can see the sea. Our visit coincided with a visit from the seaweed scourge (you can't escape it) so we didn't spend much time on the beach. Bring water shoes for swimming, as the beach has a lot of small, sharp shells. Our first night there, Gaby (the caretaker) brought us a pot of delicious chicken vegetable soup, and then I knew I'd died and gone to heaven. We had been craving vegetables. It was so plentiful that the 2 of us had enough for dinner the next night as well. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking. We only ate out once. Judy is a wonderful host, who answered my emails and questions quickly, and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. And what better source for practical information about what to see and do in the area? I'm already thinking about another visit!

Wonderful home to relax and enjoy the beach!

Las Tunas is a great choice if you want to relax in a spacious beach front home, enjoy time with your family and/or friends, and experience small-town Mexico (without being too far from bigger cities). Our family of five had plenty of space - the bedrooms are spacious, kitchen is well-stocked, family room great for lounging, etc. But what really separates Las Tunas from other properties we considered is the gorgeous, huge, tiled, covered patio area. We ate every meal there, read books on the couches or hammock, played games, did our work when needed (yes, great internet connection), and generally enjoyed the cool breeze and view of the palms, pool, and Gulf. And judging from our long beach walks where we could see other properties, I have to say that Las Tunas' grounds are the best! A lot of thought went into the layout of the home and property, and maintenance since then, and it shows. The town of Telchac Puerto is only a few minutes car ride away and definitely worth spending time exploring. There is a cute restaurant only a short walk away along the beach. (The owner loves Barry White's songs!) Judy is a fantastic, knowledgeable, and responsive host. The people Judy has helping her manage the home are super kind and helpful. Judy even arranged at our request to have volleyball poles made so we could play beach volleyball while there! Our week there was exactly what we wanted and more. We did not want to leave and definitely will consider returning for another vacation.

Wonderful beach house

Great experience, plenty of room, good kitchen, great beach, great energy, lovely family who help with whatever you need on the property, only issue for me was the soft beds because we prefer firmer ones... Judy's place is great, so nice to be in a real home!

Great house, beautiful pool, calm sea

Friends and I spent a long weekend at LasTunas. We had a very good time. The beds were comfortable and the house was clean. It is a large house with a lot of open space--both inside and on the covered patio--for socializing. When we were not in the pool or ocean, we were sitting on the patio enjoying the sound of the waves. Very peaceful. We did go into town for lunch--ate at Jorgito's. A small beach front restaurant that serves seafood and very cold beer. Good food for not a lot of money. There's also a sweet shop that we bought sweet bread in the morning and dessert later in the day. We enjoyed the house and the town very much.
