Casita Milagros - A Jungle Tree House

A 20 minute drive to the Caribbean beaches of Tulum, Casita Milagros is located in a small private jungle community that is secured by a front entrance gate. Elevated among the trees in a high canopy jungle, this completely sustainable queen bedded room has windows on all sides bringing the outdoors in, and is equipped with a ceiling fan, mosquito netting and bathroom. It features an outdoor hot water shower surrounded by tropical plants to ensure privacy and an outdoor kitchen with a 2 burner gas stove top and sink.

The easily accessible rooftop is a beautiful place to watch the toucans and spider monkeys that often visit in the early evening. Twilight brings shades of deep blue to the jungle sky and a signal to mother nature that bedtime is near. Animals traversing the treetops in search of their nests provide a symphony of sound just before the spray of starlight quiets all.

After lounging on the white sand beaches, swimming in the turquoise blue ocean waters, visiting the Mayan ruins of Tulum or Coba, shopping in Tulum Centro, and exploring the nearby Mayan villages, Casita Milagros is a tranquil retreat.

We loved our stay at Casa Milagros! I’m very glad we had an SUV, as the road is a little bumpy, I was glad we had it for multiple reasons around Tulum as well so 10/10 recommend renting an SUV for your stay. Clayanna is so lovely and has the best energy, she gave us wonderful advice and was very respectful of our space. Pepe the coati is one of the highlights of our entire trip, he reminded me a lot of one of my house cats! Very playful and has a mind of his own, he does have claws and teeth to be mindful of but he never was trying to hurt anyone, just playing! He was the sweetest and so fun. The casita was better than I imagined from pictures, very romantic! It is off grid and run by solar power so sometimes that power would run out around 4 am so the fans would turn off but that was never a problem. We loved our stay and are so glad we chose Casa Milagros!

Highly recommend staying here!!!
We had an amazing experience staying in the casita. Clayanna was so nice and went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. The sounds from the jungle during the night were very soothing, and being away from all the city was a plus. But meeting Pepe was the highlight of our stay. Would definitely stay there again! 100% recommend! Thank you Clayanna and Pepe for hosting us!

Jungle get away
We loved our stay in the jungle. It was quiet and peaceful, relaxing and enjoyable. It was just what we needed. There is a rooftop patio with hammocks and chairs. We would just lay in the hammocks and watch the sunset followed by the stars coming out. Tulum proper is about 15 minutes away by car and the beach 20 something minutes away. Cenotes are even closer and are amazing to explore. If you don't mind being off grid, we highly recommend it.

Exceeded expectations by far!!
My partner and I had the most wonderful time staying here! We are outdoorsy and love exploring so each day was full of exciting adventures and new experiences. We enjoyed it so much that we extended our stay for three additional nights rather than going to stay in the hotel zone of Tulum. I can’t recommend this home away from home enough. I can’t wait to return!

Beautiful, but very little privacy.
First, the positive things. This property is on a beautiful piece of land in the middle of the jungle. It is just far enough away from Tulum to feel relaxing, while still being close to everything. We spent some time in and around Coba, and so the location was perfect for us. A group of monkeys also comes through in the mornings and evenings, and we were able to get some excellent photos of one particularly curious young monkey. And the sounds of the jungle at night were amazing! The accommodations are rustic, but we knew that going in and we weren’t bothered by that at all. The biggest drawback to this property is that it is far less private than the listing suggests. Based on the photos and description, I believed that the outdoor kitchen was against the wall of the building we would be staying in, and that the rooftop seating area was on the roof of that same building. I therefor thought there would be quite a bit of privacy. I’m reality, the treehouse you are renting is basically right beside the house that Clayanna lives in. You have to walk around her house to get to the treehouse. Your outdoor kitchen is against the exterior wall of her house, and the rooftop seating area is on top of her roof. And her kitchen window looks out in the direction of the outdoor shower, which is only somewhat obscured by the plants. We were very disappointed by all of this. We felt like we had to tip-toe around in the morning when making coffee, and felt awkward spending much time relaxing at the property. Particularly since Vrbo advertises the privacy of their properties, the description for this property really should have been more clear about the lack of privacy at this property. Finally, we were not a fan of Pepe, the resident coati. He was quite aggressive and actually bit me hard enough to draw blood. I felt bad asking for Pepe to be locked up, and so I didn’t do so, but I also didn’t want to spent time at the property while he was out of his cage. As a result, we ended up spending very little time at the property relaxing. In then, there are some wonderful aspects to this property, but I would not stay there again.

Off grid jungle paradise
The jungle casita was a rejuvenating two nights for us. We were hoping for a quiet peaceful connection with nature. We got exactly that. I tried to keep track of the number of spider monkeys that swung freely from the trees above us, but lost track! We spotted 3 pairs of Toucans and flocks of parrots from the upper deck while laying in hammocks. The wildlife was unforgettable. it was cacophony of birds, insects, tree frogs? and “monkeys night life”. The Casita was also unforgettable, with a very comfortable bed, a hammock chair, a small dresser and 2 end tables, plus a private natural compost toilet. The screens in the casita allowed for a constant breeze. We love camping so we loved outdoor shower!!! and the outdoor kitchen made us feel at home. All this was nestled in a jungle forest. I can’t say enough about the one-ness I felt with nature. My husband thanked me for booking this gem for us. Thank you Clayanna. I only wish we could have stayed longer. I miss your wild little Pepe, already.

We had a wonderful few days at casa Milagros. Lucio, the housekeeper, is kind, very helpful, and does a good job of making it still feel very private . Jungle sounds and a comfy bed made sleeping easy, and the morning brought a fun time playing with Pepe.

Jungle Paradise
We spent a glorious week in the casita, waking to bird calls and one morning spider monkeys in the nearby trees. The casita was a peaceful retreat from Tulum center. Given how much environment-destroying development is consuming Tulum and surroundings, we also had the peace of mind that our impact as tourists on the land was about as minimal as possible. The casita is completely solar powered and uses a composting toilet. The low-impact lodging does not, however, mean guests sacrifice comfort: the bed is excellent, enclosed by mosquito netting, which is added protection because the casita itself is double-screened. There’s plenty of hot water for the outdoor shower—you can shower in the moonlight peeking through the giant leaves offering privacy. The outdoor kitchen is well provisioned, though there is no refrigeration, only a cooler. Tucked two miles into the jungle, the casita is hard to find, and you will need to rent a car, but once there, it’s quiet and secure. When we first arrived, the owner met us at a Pemex station a few kilometers away and showed us the way (and was wonderfully gracious when we were very late for our rendezvous : ) We highly recommend the casita for those who care about the environment, love nature, and seek tranquility. But it’s also close enough to Tulum to take advantage of the restaurants and beaches. There are several cenotes on the road between the casita and Tulum. Bonus: a semi-tame coatimundi lives in the main house and is adorable!

Most amazing stay
I stayed in a lot of places on my holiday, and this was the best. The pictures don't do it justice, the wildlife is fabulous and Clayanna is a wonderful person to meet. The sounds of the jungle at night, meeting Pepe, the coati - and Lucio the local caretaker - seeing toucans and an agouti, and being off grid but simultaneously close to Tulum (out of the tourist sphere) and it's beaches - what a fabulous experience. So worth it.

BEST PART OF MY MEXICO TRIP WAS STAYING HERE
I can't thank Clayanna & Lucio enough for our stay here & making our trip to Mexico so amazing. If you love nature, if you love peace & tranquillity, the jungle, beautiful night skies & want to get away from the stresses & strains of modern life, living off-grid this is where it's at. The perfect hosts. To top it all off, our new furry friend, the naughty coati Pepe visiting everyday kept us highly entertained; this loveable rogue captured our hearts. Thoroughly recommend.

The communication from Clayanna and then Lucio was very detailed from the start. Lucio met us at the gate and we followed him to the casita. Wow- what a casita it is!! Beautiful nature in the jungle with everything you could need. We spent time around the property with Pepe who was a highlight and Lucio and it was very recharging. The bed was more comfortable than any other place we stayed on this trip. The kitchen was easy to use and then we had meals on the roof to enjoy whatever the weather brought. We swam in the gran cenote (so close by!), went to the public beach, ate delicious food. We actually ended up coming back down to Tulum often even after we migrated our trip up north. I recommend this for anyone to leave your work behind and appreciate nature and the beauty of Tulum and it’s people. This stay really set the tone for our trip and we won’t ever forget it.

Remote and refreshing
Clayanna was a great host and Lucio was kind and diligent about keeping the space clean and comfortable. Bear in mind that this eco lodge won’t have your typical amenities. You shower, cook, and dine outside. Trash and waste management is a compost system. No a/c, only fans. But if you are down to rough it just a bit it’s a beautiful place to stay. Tucked away in a literal jungle (10 minutes on a winding dirt road) you’ll be immersed in the sights and sounds of wildlife. The stars are plenty and you get to enjoy the company of geckos, toucans, monkeys, and the resident rescue coati, Pepe. Not for everyone but highly recommend.

Incredible sanctuary!
This place is great! Hopefully you know what you are signing up for. Low amenities with barebones kitchen. We love that kind of simplicity! Even the drive to the place was wonderful. We ran from the Casita to the main road (just under 2 miles RT) every day and the jungle is just stunning. Lots of friendly wildlife! Make sure you have a car or other simple way to get in and out of town (Tulum), as it takes roughly 10 minutes each way. It's also about 30 minutes from the Coba ruins and cenotes.

Trip of a Lifetime
This was one of the best travel experiences we've ever had and Clayanna's property played a large part of that. Located far enough away from town that the night sky is a spectacle and the only sounds you'll hear at night are the jungle animals and the rain, but you can be to the heart of the town of Tulum in 20 minutes by car. We saw an array of wildlife (including the pleasure of her befriended coati named Peppe!), drank coffee/wine on the deck during sun + thunderstorms, gazed at the stars, and had some of the best sleep of our lives in the home. We have no complaints or feedback for improvement; you can tell Clayanna took a lot of time and poured her heart/soul into making this a magical place. We can't wait to come back. Book this place. You will not regret it.
