Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timothy B. 13 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Excellent week for family of 4 The property is indeed as lovely as the pictures show. All 4 bedrooms have great mattresses, full ensuite bathrooms (toilet side trash cans have multiple extra bags - great since you can't flush TP), safes, beach towels, toiletries, plenty of closet and drawer space, and their own remote controlled AC units. Upstairs MBR has linen curtains and faces east, so be prepared for a bright room in the AM. You have amazing views of the sunrise over the Caribbean, though, and there are 3 lounge chairs + 2 seated chairs on the rooftop patio just outside the master BR (also accessible from the top of the stairs, so others in the house can get to the roof without going through the master BR). It's a great spot for star gazing, too. The main living area is plenty comfortable with a well-appointed kitchen should you choose to do a lot of cooking. The pool is very large and gets sun all day (water stays warm), with 4 wicker sitting chairs and 5 lounge chairs, not to mention the outdoor dining area. The beach out back is not swimmable nor accessible due to the cliffs, but the view is gorgeous. Multiple beach clubs on the Cancun-side of the island are a short 5 min cart drive away. You definitely need a golf cart to go places. It's a solid 25 min ride to Playa Norte, but the southern half of the island is actually our favorite due to the more quiet, serene nature (vs the congested party atmosphere up north). Use the concierge service - they are incredibly helpful & responsive! ##### Timothy B.

We would definitely consider staying here again, the house was just as pictured! A few things to make the stay even better would be a pool net (for in between the pool maintenance guy) and an outdoor fan by the grill to help keep mosquitos away while grilling. ##### Erin M.

The location was absolutely perfect – close to everything we wanted to do, yet peaceful and relaxing. The home itself had everything we needed, with plenty of space for everyone to spread out and feel comfortable. The pool was a definite highlight – clean, private, and perfect for lounging or a quick dip.The only minor downside was that the toilet pressure was inconsistent at times, and we did lose water for showers for a couple of hours on the first day. However, this was quickly resolved and didn’t impact the rest of our stay.Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would absolutely stay here again ! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7a15660a-f22c-4bbc-8a77-775c90ab0026-1750975636236.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9baffdb7-4eaa-49b0-8d1e-a895cf15b5f7-1750975636486.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/114486be-1665-473f-b685-941847cb7f92-1750975637403.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8e362d45-3fe6-4f56-9f56-fa6f5db7dc17-1750975636417.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Christopher s.
