We're here to ensure you have a wonderful experience. Exploring, immersing oneself in the waters of Bacalar Pueblo Mágico, is delving into a unique experience. Few are privileged to visit this corner steeped in rich cultural and geological history. It is the second-largest body of water in Mexico, home to one of the world's largest colonies of stromatolites. These ancient life forms patiently await on the shore of our property, ready to tell their stories to those who pause to observe. Our location, just 9 blocks from the bustling town center, plunges you into an authentic experience, immersed in vibrant local life. The central park stands as a charming stage where local crafts, typical cuisine, and the lively atmosphere of restaurants and bars create a captivating atmosphere. We suggest visiting this effervescent spot during the afternoons, where you can share the ambiance with tourists and listen to the locals' conversations, still spoken in their ancestral Mayan language. In this journey through time and culture, we invite you to explore the Fort, now transformed into a museum, to immerse yourself in the fascinating narratives of the Mayans, Spaniards, mestizos, and the intriguing tales of pirates who left their mark on this land. The choice of the name "Casa Villa Real" for our property is not just a designation but a tribute to the history that has left an indelible mark on this magical corner. Welcome to Aldea Villa Real, where each step is a gateway to the history, culture, and natural beauty of Bacalar Pueblo Mágico. We await you with open arms for you to live this unique experience! Guests have exclusive access to the entire villa, including all indoor and outdoor spaces. Enjoy the private garden, outdoor dining area, barbecue zone, and loungers overlooking the lagoon. You'll also have direct access to the lagoon for swimming or kayaking, with kayaks provided for your use. The parking area is available for one vehicle, ensuring convenience during your stay.

The Chetumal airport is only 35 km away but you will surely have to make an air connection in Mexico City. From any of the above points you can arrive by road either by car or bus and whose station is located a few blocks from the property. The town is small and you can get around on foot from the property to the main points of interest or in the local taxis at low cost. \- The air conditioning system automatically turns off when doors are open or rooms are unoccupied to conserve energy. \- Mosquito nets are not installed to enhance natural airflow, though fumigation is conducted regularly. Guests may encounter some insects due to the villa’s lush surroundings, so we recommend bringing insect repellent. \- Some areas of the villa, such as stairs and the lagoon front, may pose risks for young children, so adult supervision is essential. \- Drinking water is not provided, so consider purchasing bottled water upon arrival. \- Occasional maintenance may be required due to the rural location, but we are always available to assist with any issues promptly. ## Property amenities ### Internet -

Outside area should have been swept/cleaned better before our arrival. The downstairs living area and bathrooms were nice, but the bedrooms/beds left much to be desired. The property managers were very easy to communicate with and responsive. Overall, the property was good but not great. ##### Robert J.
