we were extremely comfortable and really enjoyed the sitting area by the lake,the cenote was quite a joy,cooling and conversation flowed ,would recommend to nature lovers ,wish we had booked for longer stay ,thank you for welcoming us and keeping in contact ,will be returning again thank you,juana guzman and family
Absolutely Fabulous! Our stay was wonderful from beginning to end. Owners and staff were all very easy to reach and extremely friendly & helpful. We enjoyed their guided tour of the property on horseback. The Kayaking was fun for kids, as well as adults. We barbecued on large pit, while relaxing in the cenote. The sitting area by the lake was perfect for our smores. We loved being surrounded by wildlife. Its not every day that you get greeted by a longhorn, a horse and a piglet when you walk out your front door :) The interior of the home was also very inviting, clean and comfortable. Very spacious areas. The view of the lake through the floor to ceiling windows in living room is stunning. Every bedroom had the same gorgeous view right from our bed. We were several families staying together, so private bathroom in each bedroom was perfect! We are already trying to figure out how soon we can all get together to come back! Thank you for being so welcoming and accommodating.
