The studio was beautifully finished, with great attention paid to cleanliness and upscale details. Great mattress and quality sheets. The towels were plush, something you would choose for your own home. The owners are onsite, available but only so much as you would like. You have a strong sense of privacy due to the lush grounds, complete with a beautiful, large, bubbling fountain. They entertained once while we were there, and invited us to join in, which was lovely of them. There are beach towels, snorkel equipment and chairs available when you are ready to get to the ocean, a short 20 minute drive to an almost private beach at a turtle refuge. We spent our first five days just lounging on the property, which gives you an idea of how relaxing it is.
This whole experience couldn't be more different than that which the Riviera Maya resorts offer. I strongly recommend a car, we had thought of doing without and it would have been difficult. Highly recommended.
