Vacation rentals in Mexico

“Our time at the Seashell House was completely magical - wished it could have been longer! Vanessa is a phenomenal host who gave us such a warm welcome when she collected us from the ferry terminal. The house is beautiful and so exciting to explore. Everything is a shell :) We explored the island on the second day adn enjoyed zip lining and snorkeling nearby. Actually wish we had maybe just done one local activity so we had more time to enjoy the pool at the Seashell House and relax! Highly recommend. Mujeres is a magical isla”

“Let me start by saying I have tried to book Casa Blanca on 3 prior trips to Tulum and each time it was booked. That should tell you how in demand this Airbnb is:) When I was lucky enough this time to book 3 nights I immediately was met with a warm message from Dmitriy. He expressed how excited HE was for my stay, he put me at ease and had a great vibe. That is most important when a host sets the tone to an overall experience. Our communication was so pleasant, like friends, Dmitriy was beyond attentive prior to my arrival with sending me info packages regarding location, things to do, a detailed list of what’s good in the neighborhood. If a host provides this it isn’t until checking, Dmitriy provides this months in advance, so one can deliberate and plan. I had decided to take the ADO bus from the airport this time and Dmitriy wanted to be kept up to date on my arrival status. Checkin was 4 pm but I was slated to arrive at 2:30. I had planned to hang around the area and slowly make my way to the Airbnb. Dmitriy said that he would meet me at the ADO bus upon my arrival and drive me to the house and checkin early. This never happens and I travel around the world and always stay at Airbnb’s. I was pleasantly surprised when I got off the bus to see him inside with a big smile and offering to take my luggage. I’m not use to people offering this service without a tip at the end :) He was just like in our exchanges, exuberant, happy and wanting to make my stay a full experience. When we arrived, we were met by his wife, so sweet and kind. They both were so happy that I was their guest and it made me feel warm inside. They gave me a grande tour, walked me through the nuances of the house. The house was even more beautiful in person. It has this open and airy feel with all the light and windows. I was given a platter of baked goods and a refrigerator full of food and beverages. Never have I had the experience at a five star hotel to be met with such an array of food that was complimentary. Amazing.Dmitriy brought in my bags and they both wished me well. I was so in heaven I didn’t actually leave the house till the next morning :D The security system is unlike most I deal with at home. I guess while I was in a daze at the beauty of the home I didn’t pay as close attention to the locking procedures and I accidentally set off the alarm. Of course I panic and call Dmitriy and within 5 minutes he’s at the door to my rescue. It’s comforting to have an attentive host and I’ve never felt more relaxed and safe at an Airbnb before. I was met with a nightly message asking how things are and if I needed anything. Wow. So for checkout I read on the sheet left in the house that the hosts also see you off. Seriously. That is 5 star service. Dmitriy asked me where I was headed next and I told him an area of town I was not too familiar with. So he said he’s drive me there and show me around the area before checkin. This saved me the stress and anxiety of navigating with a cab where to go when I was not 100% sure. Again I felt protected and cared for even after checkout. He showed me the layout of the area and what places were good to eat at etc. I’m currently at the second Airbnb and I just wished I had stayed with him at Casa Blanca. I will be a repeat guest, when it’s available, going forward. I’ve been singing their praises on social media but part of me want to keep this Airbnb selfishly to myself 😊 Don’t hesitate to book here: 2 bikes, downtown location, artsy neighborhood, pool, hammock, front and back patios, safe area, sweet added perks, next or the town hospital, attentive hosts, a beautiful home I wish was mine haha. Thank you Casa Blanca for a memorable and special stay 💕”

“Alex's place is wonderful! From the very beginning communication was so easy with Alex. He always responded within a day and was flexible when we added a third guest. Any question we had while in Mexico he was also quick to answer and we frequently saw him and his family tending to the building. The place is even more beautiful than the pictures. We spent every morning and evening on the terrace and love how light the space was. The location is perfect and very close to great street food and excellent restaurants. When we come back to Mexico we will definitely be staying with Alex again.”
