Enjoy Mayan Riviera in an authentic and friendly environment, beach & nature!

"Casa Mexicana" is a great place to relax while exploring the Riviera Maya!

Between Tulum (20km) and Akumal (7km) and surrounded by the jungle, it is your cozy base, yet far away from crowds, and a 3 minutes drive to the pristine Xcacel Beach.

The house is fully furnished, fresh and quiet, and you will enjoy its front roofed terrace with jungle view, hammock, table and chairs.
The place is all yours (it is a second home).

- "Yellow room" has 2 single beds + an extra mattress (on the floor), A/C, fan, closet.
- 1 bathroom with shower.

Casa Mexicana is in Chan Chemuyil, a quiet, charming, colorful neighborhood. The development is surrounded by jungle, smells good and sounds good.
It is within a walking distance from "downtown" Chemuyil which is cute and typical. There you will find a few restaurants, tortilla factory, tacos, bakery and small grocery stores, football and basketball court, church, etc.
Chemuyil village is really authentic and friendly.

Xcacel beach is also a 3 minutes drive away and is one of the most beautiful beaches, as a protected turtles sanctuary. Crystal clear water and a white sandy beach, make Playa Xcacel perfect for snorkeling, swimming and relaxing.
In order to keep the place safe and protected for turtles, the entrance to the beach is allowed from 10am to 5pm (tue-sun) and there is a 97pesos (5usd) entrance fee (toilets and shower access).
There are also other amazing beaches around (Tulum, Akumal, Paamul, Xpu-Ha,...).
On your way back you can swim in the fresh water cenote (underground lake) 100 meters away from the house!

Casa Mexicana is centrally located for visiting many amazing sites on a day trip:
- mayans ruins like Tulum and Coba,
- the Sian Kaan Biosphere,
- eco/adventure parks (Xcaret, Xplor, Xel-Ha),
- stunning beaches (Tulum, Akumal Bay, Xpu-ha, Soliman Bay...),
- nightlife in Playa del Carmen,
- amazing jungle cenotes, very typical in the area,
- hidden lagoons,
- monkey reserve,
etc.

If you plan to explore the Riviera Maya and do a lot of sightseeing, or have small children, renting a car at Cancun Airport could be your best option (you will find the main car rental companies at Cancun Airport).

However, public transportation is easily available from Casa Mexicana. The "colectivos" (small public buses), go by readily between 6am and midnight, they are safe and cheap (around 1.5usd/pers). They will drop you off anywhere along the highway between Playa del Carmen and Tulum. There is a bus stop at the entrance of the village (5min walk).
