Great Getaway

This is my husband and I fourth time visiting. The ocean views and property are amazing! The property is in a great location. Art made us feel so welcome and went as far as helping us celebrate my husband’s birthday with a cake and candle! It’s always sad when we leave.

Great alternative to all-inclusive resorts

A well maintained quiet facility of 4 units located on the gulf in the village. This charming unit has a huge shaded verandah, small private beach with water's edge right of way for beach walks. Bars and restaurants are walking distance. For a few pesos you can get a Collectivo to the larger port of Progresso where you find supermarkets, ATM machines and full shopping. Kim was a wonderful hostess who picked us up at our hotel in Merida and gave us useful tips for shopping and dining and attentive to our needs. Highly recommended.

Great place and new rooms

We stayed at Chelem for 3 nights and had a spectacular time. Rick answered all our questions really fast and over it was an amazing experience. I would recommend this place for anyone wanting to have a very relaxing time right in front of the beach.

An absolutely wonderful little oasis on the beach run by owners who truly care.

My partner and I spent a week in Sol and a 2 weeks in Mar. We were very happy in both. From the moment you walk into the walled securely walled courtyard with small pool and gardens you know you are in for a treat. Well equipped, comfortable beds, lots of air flow, and abundant towels for beach and bath. This is a new spot and the owners were extremely receptive to our and other guests suggestions to make additions or changes. (ie: immediately providing a small chest freezer for those of us who wanted more ice and a place to freeze extra food) Any problems or issues were attended to as quickly as possible. Kim is the local contact making it easy to learn everything you want to know about the area regarding restaurants etc. She is (along with Stan) kind, receptive, and fun too!!! The large tiled, covered veranda looking out over the beautiful beach is where we spent many happy hours on lounge chairs or in hammocks just reading or sometimes chatting with other guests . In all, a very special spot to revisit without hesitation!
