About this property

La Casita de Chelem House / with a beautiful Mayan pool

This house has been designed and built for his mother, for the Architect Mauricio Pinto.
The house has original furnishings and designed with recycled materials. Finished with walls of stone, Italians tiles and Venetian.
This beautiful house is located right on the beach. The casita has a circular mayan pool and is surrounded by coconut palm trees making it a very relaxing environment to enjoy a warm sunset.
The view from the pool is fantastic. You feel like you're inside the sea.
The house has a dining room with a round table that can fit up to 9 people and is decorated with seashells and stones that are common to the region.
Here are four big doors so that you have a great sea views and pool.
The area is decorated with a painting of the family history at the beach from the grandparents
The kitchen is in the center of the house and is designed to fit the whole family.
Its roof has a diamond-shaped design, decorated with lamps produced by the Mayan . It is completely equipped with full size refrigerator, stove with four burners, oven, microwave, coffee pot, toaster, blender, dishes, utensils, glasses, pans and a breakfast bar overlooking the living room.
The casita has two bedrooms, both with ceiling fans and closets. The front bedroom has a king size bed, air conditioner and a beach front view in a balcony. The back bedroom has a full size bed and is connected to a bathroom. The bed is constructed with two doors very old, from a house in the historic center of the city of Merida.
These doors are over a hundred years old.
The second bathroom has direct beach access; directly to the ' Terraza las hamacas '.
Connected to the side of the house is La Terraza Lunar, or The Moon Terrace, which is a lovely patio decorated with palm trees, called xit in Mayan, and irises.
It offers the ideal place to unwind after a day in the sun and admire the night sky.
The house comes with hot water and gas and TV cable ( SKY ) and also has wireless internet.
The natural beauty of the area is clear, but the inside of the house is also decorated with the
perfect combinations of furniture and plants to create an exotic environment, and the house is designed so that the view of the beach can be admired from anywhere on the inside.
The azure sea is 86 degrees in the summer months, perfect for swimming, boogie boarding, and shelling. The house is located at the border of a fishing town called Chuburna, which is a non-tourist area and it is very quiet and private. The gentle, warm ocean is inviting and refreshing. The cooling ocean breeze is the perfect air conditioner. Enjoy coffee or a cold drink sitting out in the terrace, take a stroll on the beach, read a book or just relax in a hammock all day long.
You hardly find a house so fantastic....!!!!
We own three beach front houses in this area, and we rent all three.

La Tintinki and La casa del Xix You're not going to find better homes in the area.

Great location, charming beach home
My husband, friend and I stayed at the Casita for a week. Sitting on comfortable chairs on patio or in the pool looking directly onto the gulf was incredibly peaceful and relaxing. Two comfortable bedrooms, each w bathroom w hot water; also an outdoor shower. Kitchen well equipped. Twice guys stopped by selling fresh fish and seafood which was a welcome surprise. Recommend having a car-about a 40 minute walk into Chelem town and good for day trips. Hosts Jose and Maria Elena are lovely people and timely communication.

Chelem
This house was just what we were looking for. Very private with its own little beach. The house is decorated so cute and is real homey. It is centrally located and we were able to take day trips and see all that we wanted to. The hosts were so sweet and helpful. They brought us coffee and sweet bread. They genuinely want their guests to feel at home. Unfortunately a storm came through, which we love storms, but it knocked the power and water out so we weren’t able to enjoy the house as longed as we wanted to. Jose was very understanding and refunded us for the days we did not use. We plan to go back for sure!

Wonderful house and host
Hard to say which was better, the host, the house, or the location. We only stayed a week, but we loved it. The house has everything you need, and is quite comfortable. Chelem is a great little town, with more than 20 places to eat. You do need a car, as things are spread out. We visited the more upscale restaurants in nearby Progresso several times. Our hosts met us at the house when we arrived and took us through everything about the house. Everything worked fine and we had no problems. Jose was always at the ready if we needed anything, which we didn’t. If hearing the soothing sounds of the waves as you sleep is your idea of a great vacation, check this house out. We hope to revisit in the future.
