My wife and I and 2 young daughters(5 yr. and 10 months) spent 7 great days in Chan Chemuyil. We have been to this region of Mexico several times and were looking for someplace away from the hustle and bustle of Playa and Chan Chemuyil was what we needed. We rented a car for the first time and it was well worth it (and really needed). No problems with the police driving as some people report and since the coast is north and south you can't get lost. We spent 2 days at Xcacel beach, 2 at Tulum, 1 at Akumal, and another just driving around. It was always a joy to come "home" to Chan Chemuyil. Having a full kitchen, living/dinning room is a major plus with 2 young children. In fact my wife said will never stay in a hotel again. The ease and freedom of being in your own place is great. The town of Chan Chemuyil is real cute, but didn't see too many residents around, which i can understand since it is the low season. We did meet a guy (Kevin?) from N.J. who said, "I moved down and haven't looked back since." Kind of gives you an idea of how great it is. Was it hot? YEAH!!! but we always go down in August, so we knew what to expect. Just go to the beach during the day and turn on the AC at night. Also, we found the local cenote by accident one day and it was more amazing than the one we paid for the day before. If you love the beach and sun, then head on down. We will be back!!!

We had such a great experience while staying at Ak Kun. Not only was the place wonderful, but the surrounding community also. We were always greeted with smiles from the neighbors and even offered a cerveza from one of them while we waited on the keys to our place. We wish that we had discovered this place sooner. Beautiful house, great location, and excellent accommodations! Very close is Tulum, somewhat of an undiscovered paradise to the folk that stick around Cancun Centro. Had we not stayed at Ak Kun, we never would have stumbled upon the great food, gorgeous beaches, and relaxing times that awaited us there. Thanks again for making this place available. It made the difference between an okay vacation and a must-be-repeated vacation.

We had a really nice vacation. The house was very nice and comfortable. The neighbors were friendly and Renee was very nice and helpful. The directions were great, we had no trouble finding the place. We were a little apprehensive about the drive from Cancun due to the stories about violence in Cancun and then about the police stopping you for no reason, but it was really no problem. Those topes are a trip! :) Seemed to be everywhere :) The beach at Xcacel was fantastic. We also really loved the beach out in front of La Vita e Bella in Tulum. It was before El Paraiso on that beach front road. It was very laid back and a lot less crowded than El Paraiso with really friendly staff. The Jungle Place was very cool and we had a great time there with the monkeys :) The ruins in Tulum and Coba were outstanding. Liked Coba the best as the setting in the jungle makes it a little more serene I think. All in all it was a nice break. Oh...we really enjoyed season 1 of Lost :) That was the evening entertainment :)
Thanks again for all your help and will definitely keep your place in mind for future visits!

We had everything we needed, and it was pleasant to be able to come home to our own place. We were glad that we weren't staying at a tourist hotel or resort, and that we had a chance to explore the area on our own. It was possible to visit shops and restaurants that locals frequented, but we did not feel limited by language barriers (Steve knows a little Spanish). We liked being between Tulum and Akamal, and spent a lot of time at both places. We went into Chemuyil as well, and ate there twice, great food both times.
We did feel that we needed a car, and staying there without would have been difficult, so I would recommend that future renters have a car. Had we not rented, we probably would have had to get one anyway, and that would have taken time away from other activities.
We also thought that the private beach was a little far to walk, so again, a car is probably needed. The beach, by the way was beautiful.
This was our first trip to the Yucatan Peninsula, and we loved it; I want very much to go back. Steve tried snorkeling for the first time, and he enjoyed it thoroughly.
I would definitely recommend the houses at Chan Chemuyil to anyone thinking of vacationing there, who does not like the whole "resort" concept.
We enjoyed staying at your beautiful home.
