Located near Punta Sur, the south end of Isla Mujeres, this secluded rental getaway consists of two Studio apartments on the second story of a private home, with a separate entrance. The roomy units are rich in color and texture and have a very luxurious, yet homey feel. From the large terrace in front of the guest rooms you can gaze out at the view to Cancun, while sipping your morning coffee , watching the sunset with a cold cerveza...or just enjoy an afternoon siesta in the hammock.
The units have a mini-kitchen (small fridge, coffee maker, blender and toaster) to prepare “a little something” in your room. Each has a king bed, roomy closet space and a table and chairs to sit and have a bite or your morning coffee. The bathroom is spacious, with tiling throughout, and glass blocks in the shower provide light with privacy. Sumptuous bath towels, linens, and bedcovers and pillows, as well as deep and rich wall treatments make these rooms a step above most guest suites. These are great for a single person or a couple or two just wanting to enjoy the island off the beaten track.
Down the road is Garrafon de Castilla Beach Club, which, in my opinion, has some of the best snorkeling on the whole island, with just a 40 peso admission fee for all day. There are also several nice restaurants in the area: Casa O's, known for its romantic palapa setting and fine food and service; Almar Lounge, at Casa de Los Suenos; and El Pueblito, a casual roadside eatery open for breakfast and lunch. The Caribbean Village of Garrafon at Punta Sur has a cafe with things like hamburgers, in case you are craving one, Garrafon Park, the cliffside walking trail, from the lighthouse north for as far as you feel like walking along the Caribe oceanfront...... all are popular attractions in this part of the island. Unless you like the seclusion, transportation is recommended here.
