"It was a beautiful property! Like a treehouse tucked away in the jungle, but right on the main strip 5 mins across the street from playa Carmen. Close to great cafes, restaurants, and convenience stores. Our check in process went smoothly and the private family room was perfect, except that we noticed quite quickly the AC wasn’t working on the 2nd level in the bedrooms. The staff were so kind and quick to work hard and fix it by the time we went got back for dinner. 10/10 customer service. Would...

"Nice little family-owned spot. A true 4-minute walk to the beach. Very basic rooms but well cared for. Pros: - Proximity to the beach and the main strip - Family-owned - Large pool - Good, hearty breakfast - Drying rack for each room (nice touch when you have wet clothes all the time) Cons: - Millipedes in the room (probably unavoidable in the tropics, but it detracted from our enjoyment to have to kill 3-4 a day) - Outlets did not all work (fine for us, as we had enough for what we...

Luxury holiday home Santa Teresa - Villa Makai

9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (12)
"Casa Makai is a beautiful property with an incredible ocean/jungle view & very comfortable furnishings. The filtered water system was a treat, allowing us to fill our water bottles and drink directly from the tap, reducing unnecessary plastic waste. It is secured behind a private gate & monitored overnight by an on-sight security guard, (which didn't seem necessary as everyone in town was exceptionally kind and trustworthy). Josefina, the property manager, went above and beyond in every way...
