Wonderful beachfront house!
Posted Apr. 3, 2024 on HomeAwayThe house was clean and comfortable. Communication with the host was very good. She was attentive and responsive. The caretaker, Rudolfo, is very nice, yet speaks only Spanish. ( For all the English only people like me. )

Great relaxing holidays
Posted Feb. 10, 2024 on HomeAwayMy husband and I stayed for 3 weeks and we really enjoyed our stay. We were able to relax and we visited a bunch of sites. Progresso is full of restaurants and you can get all the groceries you desire and more is available at Merida. Seaweed is present but it's the same everywhere in Mexico this year. Host is very nice, responsive and gives great information.

Perfect getaway
Posted Dec. 15, 2023 on HomeAwayHouse and property are just as described. Perfect place to get away from it all. This is not a resort area, but awesome area to set back and read or meditate.
A car might be considered necessary, but the drive into Progreso is quick and easy.
Communication with Violet was great.
Master bedroom has ac, but never used it. Perfect to let the breeze blow in and listen to the waves at night.
Would love to return one day.

Nice house, good location, beach not so much
Posted Nov. 29, 2023 on HomeAwayThe house and location are the best if you want ocean front with plenty of room.
But, the beach area was covered in about 30"d sargassum and the water's edge was thick with it. Maybe time of year? It went down a little after a few days but there was a Lot. You cant walk very far down the beach because there's areas its just too think to get thru. And it stinks a bit, right?
That cant be controlled of course, but that info should be shared.
The outdoor area has no place to laze about in the sun. There are a couple of those wacky fiberglass (?) molded lounger things that are really uncomfortable so I'm not counting those. Cant lay in/on them and they sit right on the ground.
There isn't much to do here, no games or cards or books or people staying nearby. It was so dead. Again, time of year thing? Or always? Don't know...
It would be nice if there was some glasses that were glass or plates and bowls that could go in the microwave - everything was plastic.
The couple managing are lovely and very helpful. It was nice that they supplied a huge jug of water.
Its quiet and remote and calm and beautiful and very spacious. We just couldn't enjoy the beach, go in the water or laze in the sun. (again, time of year??)

I’m sorry to hear that the guest was unhappy with the seaweed on the beach. It’s understandable that the seaweed could have been an inconvenience, but it’s important to remember that seaweed is a natural phenomenon and has been casing problems in the Caribbean for several years now.
This occurrence can be affected by various factors such as weather, tides, and currents. Unfortunately we had a big norte the night prior to guests arrival.
Top cabinets have all melamine products and bottom cabinets have glassware and stoneware. We will be taking pictures of
We value are guests and are sadden the beach was not as nice as usual.

Enjoyed our Stay!
Posted Jul. 25, 2023 on HomeAwayOur family enjoyed visiting the beach. Violeta was very helpful with information, and communication. After missing a connecting flight, and getting in very early in the morning she was accommodating to get us the keys. She checked in with us to make sure we found everything we needed and if we needed anything.
We found the house was clean and had the basics, as listed. The a/c worked well in all the bedrooms.
The home is quite a drive from Progresso, so make sure you stock up on groceries before getting there. But once you arrive, you won't want to leave, and you don't need to leave to go to the beach. We enjoyed the privateness of the home, and could step out of the home to the beach and ocean. We loved to watch the sunrise and sunsets!
There is some construction going on at the home next door. Sometimes we could hear them and other times we never noticed them. We lost power for a couple of hours one day. We found out that this does happen here and there.
Check out was easy.

Good Experience
Posted Mar. 5, 2023 on HomeAwayVioleta was away during our stay but was attentive and available via Whatsapp. Rodolpho (caretaker) was offsite but responded quickly in person to the few questions we had. Excellent stay!

Perfectly Relaxing
Posted Jan. 31, 2023 on HomeAwayThe house is well located and easy to find. A large entrance way brings you to a small living area, dining area and the around to the kitchen. A bedroom and separate bathroom finish off the main floor. The upstairs has 3 other bedrooms with ensuites, including the principle bedroom which shares a small balcony with another bedroom.
The main patio area is perfect and where we spent much of our time. It is covered to provide much needed shade. There are areas where you can also seek out the sun. The pool is smaller but very refreshing to dip in. It's not large enough to swim but plenty of room to float and cool off. From the pool area is a gate with steps down to the sand and beachfront. It is an unobstructed view to the sea. There are places to hang hammocks on the patio (none are provided) and a clothes line as well as a charcoal bbq just off of the kitchen.
The house is perfectly comfortable for a short term stay, we would definitely consider renting again.

Lovely beach area
Posted Dec. 15, 2022 on HomeAwayThis property was very well located, and although there are now 2 houses adjoing to the west that were not there before, they do not really interfer with the view to the west, At night, one can see the long pier in Progreso. To the east, the view is still completely open, and one can walk in either direction on a lovely wide stretch of beach for a very long way seeing only an occasional person around.
There are tons of shells, and a fascinating low tide sand ripple formation about a K to the east, on a small part of the beach where a point has formed. We photographed this area, and found that the ripple varied quite a bit from day to day, and wished we could have stayed for longer to continue observing this pattern. (We were there for 18 days, and the tides were very high)
The house is well constructed and well kept, and we found the layout very pleasing, with ample kitchen area, and WONDERFUL pots and pans to cook with. Bedding is also ample. House was very clean on arrival, and the kitchen was immaculate; dishware, pots and pans included.
We had a very enjoyable time in our 18 days, with wonderful sunrises and sets, and some great full moon shots with Mars directly below it, and I am sure we will go back if available in future.
The owner Violeta was really great to work with, and it was a pleasure to stay in their beach house.
