A great home on the beach!
Overall, this is a great beach house. There are two pools, which get maintained by professionals on a regular basis.
It is what is says it is, a house right on the beach. You can sit on the patio and watch birds, fishermen, the waves break. It's a quiet beach with friendly folk walking around. No crowds, just the waves breaking. And lots of seashells!
Stan, the caretaker host, is great and very responsive. He was easily the best host we have ever dealt with. The home just got some major repair work done before we arrive and had been unoccupied for a bit before us. This lead to a few issues with the home. Stan got on these right away, when we contacted him. Most often the very same day.
The town of Chelem is right down the road to the east and the town of Chuburna is to the west. Chelem seemed to be much more active with more going on. The people of this area are wonderful and very friendly. There is a great fresh food market in Chelem, Frutería Vázquez, right on Calle 21 as you enter Chelem from the beach house.
If you stay at this great beach home, you should go check out Isla Columpois. Look it up. You can book a kayak trip into the mangroves to a great clear water spring swimming hole, go early!. And then have lunch at the Isla Columpios. You have to visit to understand, it just a cool spot.
We loved our stay here.
