About the Accommodation

There are few private villas located downtown where all the action is - and Playa Norte, the #1 ranked beach in all of Mexico! Just a hop, skip and a jump to Tiny Gecko - a popular oceanfront live music venue. Only a 2 block walk along the Malecon to the Main Plaza in El Centro Isla Mujeres, just far enough away for a quiet retreat. There are always holidays and festivals here and you can watch fireworks from SEVEN oceanfront terraces at this Outstanding Property. Stay up late, or get up early to watch the incredible Sunrises that paint the sky in an amazing array of colors daily. When the sun sets, head up to our 4th floor roof top terrace for jaw dropping 360 degree views of the entire island! Check out this video.

You'll be blown away when you walk through the entryway in and are warmly greeted with an expansive view of the turquoise and sapphire Caribbean Sea, the waves breaking just 12 feet away from you.

• The views are simply stunning, with the sea so close it's magical as you fall asleep to the soothing sounds.
• This large villa is majestic, yet a warm and welcoming vacation rental that's great for extended families or large groups.
• All the Isla Mujeres excitement is so close, but you'll be reluctant to leave this property
• Level 1 terrace has an inviting Baja Shelf splash pool, with a Fountain and bubblers.
• It transforms into a stunning water feature when the lights come on at night. Bask with your favorite beverage in a lounge chair in the pool, sit for a relaxing soak or let the little ones enjoy the shallow area.
• An impressive mural with Jorge the Dragon is on the North pool patio wall because well, every Castle 🏰 needs a Dragon.
• Two Oceanfront Suites open to a second level million dollar sunrise view patio.
• A second level morning coffee terrace on the street side of the property is perfect for watching Isla Mujeres come to life each day - or parade watching.
• Level 3 Oceanview Penthouse has a patio with views of the Bay of Cancun and Stunning Sunsets, or watch the ferries come & go and catamarans sailing by. There are oceanfront balconies outside the master bedroom slider and the living room.
• Head up to our 4th level rooftop terrace which boasts 360 degree views of the entire island that can't be beat - a great place for yoga, working out, sunbathing, sunrise coffee, sunset cocktails or romantic stargazing.

Notes

We believe in creating happy memories that will last a lifetime! Here's what our guests have to say about our Awesome Villa in a Perfect Location 😎🏰🏖...

Excellent property, couldn’t be better!!!! Central location, walking distance to Playa Norte, walking distance to restaurants and shopping. But best of all is 2 things: (1) owners fix any issues within minutes; and (2) this is absolutely the most well-stocked VRBO property I have ever stayed at. Many VRBO properties require you to purchase your own base level supplies, such as trash bags, salt and pepper, olive oil for cooking, etc. however, this property comes fully stocked, with sandwich bags, salt and pepper and other base level spices, cooking supplies, pool towels, beach towels, shower towels, etc. this is without a doubt the best VRBO property I have ever stayed at. - Daniel G., Fort Worth, TX

Wonderful Place! This place is awesome! Just like the photos. This was our 3rd visit to Isla Mujeres and this was the perfect location right on the Malecon with the ocean right off the deck with the pool; just paradise! Can walk anywhere downtown and easy cab trip or rent a golf cart to explore the rest of the island. The kitchen has all the supplies you need to cook but with so many great restaurants we didn't need to use it as much as I thought we would! We stayed "home" quite a bit and never tired of the pool and view of the ocean (the sunrises are gorgeous). The place is spotless and they even supply laundry detergent for the washer. The house is secure and we always felt safe. We would definitely stay here again! - Kerry C., Kansas City, KS

Fantastic Little Villa in the Perfect Location! We love, love, loved our stay! The villa was clean and comfortable, the location was absolutely perfect, the view was spectacular, and the owners were great. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend and stay again! - Jessica C., Dallas, TX

Amazing property. The Owner's were excellent hosts me and my family had the best experience with this location. Everything was in walking distance. It was a pleasure meeting the owners and there guests. Will definitely be back. - Nick, Houston, Texas The perfect place to stay for large groups! The views from the house are absolutely breathtaking and the property is located within a very short walking distance to the downtown area with great shopping, restaurants and the beach, and a short golf cart ride away from the south end of the island! Dawn and Tom were amazing hosts, friendly, accommodating, easy to communicate with and had great recommendations! I would highly recommend this space to anyone traveling to the island and we will absolutely be returning as soon as we can! - Nicole, Deerfield Beach, Florida

Our stay at the Castillito was amazing. Dawn and Tom are wonderful and very kind hosts. They helped us since day 1 to make our stay the most perfect it could be. They are very open and always ready to give us their attention if something needed. The villa is great and spacious, with a wonderful view. It has killer location. Great place place to stay with your family and friends and to enjoy Isla Mujeres. - Thomas, Mexico City, MX

If you're looking for a place to stay on Isla Mujeres, stop looking - you've found it. The location is perfect - short walks to the restaurants, beaches, and shopping on the north end of the island. Easy access to the ferry. Spectacular sunrise view. Pool area is shaded in the afternoon, making it even more comfortable and usable. Kitchen is well equipped, linens and towels all provided and in great shape, beds are comfortable, bathrooms spacious, and the owners are local, well versed in the area, and great to work with. They quite literally wrote a book on the area. The only downside: you may not want to leave - we sure didn't want to! - Dave, Atascocita, TX

Neighborhood

Since this home is close to all of Isla Mujeres' downtown action - restaurants, shops, nightlife and beaches NO GOLF CART IS NEEDED (avoid sobriety checkpoints ;-). Although you may want to rent one just for a day to explore the enchantment of the rest of the Island. Our full service concierge can certainly certainly help you with reservations! Voted as one of the Best Islands in the World by Conte Nast Traveler - the location of this Villa simply can't be beat! There are very few Oceanfront villas with a private pool located DOWNTOWN in El Centro - where all the action is! Castillito del Caribe is just a short walk to restaurants, shops, nightlife and Playa Norte (North Beach) which has been ranked #1 Best Beaches in Mexico!
