Good Spot for Passing Thru
Easy checkin and nice Owners
Bed was comfortable
Great location
Nice, homey alternative to the big resorts. Very good location and very close to the restaurants in the area. Breakfast was simple toast and eggs.
We didn't read our booking closely enough and didn't realize there was a shared bathroom, but we are not picky and it was fine and quite clean. Only very minor complaint would be there were only 1 pair of towels provided (and no hand towels) and no bath mat to dry off your feet outside the shower.

When booking this stay I did not know it was an apartment and asked for a refund because l was traveling solo and did not want to book an air bnb. The owner denied me of my refund stating it says it in the booking, but it did not state this info. Also they did not provide any face towels. I was told they lived next door. For sanitary reasons and since they live close I did not think getting a face towel would be an issue and was told they aren't a hotel (which I thought l had booked). They advertise the pool in the photos, but you do not have access to it staying in room number one. The walls are very thin and l could hear all the noise from the neighbors and could not sleep. I left after the first night because of the noise. I went on vacation for peace and quiet, but this was not the right place for that. The place was clean. The location is good. From past reviews the owners will have a rebuttal, but this is my honest opinion. This was not the stay I was looking for.
Sonia and Alberto are wonderful hosts. Very welcoming, very helpful calling taxis and shuttles, providing recommendations, etc. Breakfast was excellent and it was fun visiting with guests from around the world.
The owner's are wonderful and helpful. The house is nice and the pool was fun. The bedroom and bath was small but in good condition. Perfect if you like a firm mattress and pillow. Great sheets.
We are very new to the B&B experience and had not realized that we were not booking in a small motel when we made the reservation. Right from the start, we found our hosts to be very welcoming and made us feel at home and relaxed.
We had a great time staying at Villas Picalu and recommends it for everyone who wants to stay at a clean and friendly place with a nice and generous breakfast and the most helpful and considerate hosts you could ever ask for!
Muy bonito, zona segura, el mar es lindo y a pocos minitos caminando. Los dueños fueron muy amables, me ubicaron al toque!

Nettes B&B
wir waren mehrere Tage dort. Die Zimmer sind Zweckmäßig. Uns hat ein Tisch u. Stühle gefehlt. Heisses Wasser war nicht genug vorhanden. Denke die 4 anderen Zimmer hängen auch alle an einem kleinen Heisswassertank und dann ist er irgendwann leer. Strandhandtücher fehlten auch bei Nachfrage. Puerto Venturas ist sehr sehenswert und hat viele kleine nette Restaurant. wir empfehlen das B & B
B&B avec un très bon rapport qualité prix. L'accueil réservé par ses gérants est sympathique, sérieux tout en étant détendu. Petite piscine rafraîchissante, au coeur du village fermé de Puerto Aventuras.
Tbe best value for money to meet de Riviera Maya and not be tied to an all inclusive . It is best to rent a car to have the freedom to know every corner of tbe Riviera Maya . The "XPUHA" Beach is very close to Puerto Aventuras , for me the best in tbe zone.. Sonia and Alberto , the owners from Italy , are very helpful and give you all the Information to know the área.
3 świetne noclegi w rodzinnym hotelu Sonia robi śniadanka zaskoczyła mnie cena do jakości każdemu polecam .super plaże tanie smaczne jedzenie brak hałasu i tłumów
When we arrived the friendly hosts greeted us like friends and gave us plenty of good advices what to do and eat in the area. When we came to our room we noticed that for the first time since we left Europe it was actually silent, both in the room and outside. That is something that you usually don't find even in 5-star hotels on this side of the Atlantic.
It is about 15 minute walk to the beach where you can put your towel anywhere. Or you can go to the Omni-hotel and buy a day-pass to be able to use the sun chairs, pools, umbrellas, restrooms and shower. The price for a day pass was 400 pesos but 300 of that can be used as credit in the bar and restaurants.
Wir haben uns während unserer Rundreise für zwei Übernachtungen in diesem B&B entschieden und können dieses wirklich weiterempfehlen. Es befindet sich in einer umzäunten Urlaubsanlage, feinsandiger Strand, Restaurants ud Unterhaltungsmöglichkeiten (Delfinarium) finden sich in fußläufiger Nähe.
Das Zimmer war modern eingerichtet und sauber, das Bett sehr groß. Es gab einen Swimmingpool. Das Frühstück umfasste frischen Saft, Toast mit Marmelade und Müsli. Die Betreiber waren unglaublich freundlich, gaben uns Reisetipps und wir fühlten uns wirklich gern aufgenommen. Gern wären wir auch länger geblieben!
