We had a spectacular stay. What we enjoyed the most was the terrace with a pool and the beautiful ocean view, the perfect place to relax. The rest was excellent: the bed is super comfortable and the pillows are of excellent quality, which is really appreciated at the end of the day. Special mention for the host, who welcomed us in the friendliest way and gave us excellent recommendations for places to visit and eat in the area. We would definitely come back!

It looks nicer in photos. Although it is clean and they are friendly, I feel that it is not worth the price. The pool is simpler and so is the room.

I should have paid closer attention to the description, which mentions that the property is rustic and designed to give you a close-to-nature experience. It is a nice place, and the king-size beds were exactly what I was looking for. However, there was one important detail that was not mentioned in the listing: the ceiling is made of straw, leaving it open to the outdoors. We arrived close to midnight after a long trip, expecting a restful night. Instead, we spent the night fighting mosquitoes and listening to loud music from the nightclub next door. Because it had rained the night before, there appeared to be a leak in the roof, and one side of the bed was soaked. In addition, one of the bathrooms did not have a toilet seat. We contacted the owner about these issues, and after the inconveniences and some back and forth communication, they offered us 2 rooms at a nearby property (with a nice rooftop) for the second night of our two-night stay. For that reason, I gave them a 3-star.
Host Response
It's a pleasure to be your host. If you can check what you booked, our concept is a thatch-roofed cabin. Our place does not accept pets.

I thought that the cost of the rooms with ocean views was generally the rate paid, but we were told that they had a higher cost, which was not explained to us....

It is located opposite the Chetumal esplanade, right in front of the giant letters for taking photos. The bedrooms are amazing; they are super comfortable and have exquisite décor. The loft rooms are double-height, overlooking the bay, and they have air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and super comfortable beds. I highly recommend it ☺️! Thank you for an amazing break! 💚

It is definitely a really nice place to stay; although the loft has no ocean view, it is spacious, clean, very well lit, and has the necessary kitchen utensils in case you want to make a quick snack. The service provided by the managers was excellent; you can tell that they are attentive without being intrusive. In addition, I would like to point out that the place and the area are very safe. I would definitely stay at this property again, but in an oceanfront loft.

I had an amazing stay in Chetumal. Juanita was truly one of the nicest people I’ve met while traveling. She went above and beyond by upgrading my room, which was such a thoughtful and generous surprise. The space was clean, comfortable, and felt very welcoming. Her kindness and hospitality really made the experience special, and I felt well taken care of from start to finish. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting Chetumal.

Mario Alberto's place is very well located, the rooms to stay in are excellent, the service is very good from the staff and everyone is very friendly. In our case, they changed our room for a better one at no additional cost. If I go back to Chetumal, this would be my first choice.

The place is located a couple of steps from the esplanade. Luckily for us, we got the Christmas villa. There were a lot of people, food stalls, the atmosphere felt pleasant and as such the place to stay 10/10, even more so the terrace, since from there you can see the sunrise and sunset in front of the esplanade

I don't leave many reviews, but I would like to congratulate the team of this place, especially Juanita, who received us very kindly, thank you Juanita you are the best, the place is like the photos, that's why I'll leave you some things that are not seen in the photos but are appreciated: 1. The water pressure in the shower was phenomenal, like a back massage. Hot and cold water at the moment. No tricks 2. Extra clean sheets and blankets, we woke up smelling like fabric softener. 3. Air conditioning working at 100 4. Super comfortable bed, we slept like babies 5. Incredible location, tacos marquesita restaurants, we wanted to have dinner at 10, I went down for my tacos and in 10 minutes we were already having dinner, saving on uber eats. 100% awesome. 6. Bikes! Things to keep in mind, that photos, even if they don't tell lies, aren't the main reason you book: 1. Terrace area needs maintenance. Lots of mosquitoes too 2. Please notify at least 3 hours before your arrival time as there is no self-check-in

The Loft is really good, a privileged location in front of the Malecón, centrally located with a very good view from the room, tidy, clean, with a very appropriate decoration and paintings with a theme of the local flora and fauna of Chetumal. I liked it a lot, not only the room but also the terrace, with a pool and an excellent view of the bay. we will surely be back.

Just walk towards the fisherman's monument and then ☺️ you will find it Check-in was super easy as communication via AirBnB was fast and reliable! Great place with free bikes and a nice roof terrace!
