The “Tortuga Palapa” on the second level just outside of the Tortuga Suite to the open terrace where there is a private entrance to the Master Suite. Up another level above the Master Bedroom Suite is “The Blue Moon Palapa”, a large rooftop terrace, partially shaded. Island-themed tile and stone handwork can be seen throughout on the floors of the palapas and in and around the house. Carved rails adorning the exterior staircases and the interior stairs and carved handrails are fashioned of salam, a local exotic hardwood noted for its durability and dark burnished beauty. Glass blocks are strategically placed in walls to welcome sunlight, and in the master suite to showcase a collection of seashells. Local art is displayed on the walls and throughout the house. The house was designed for maximum versatility. The ground-level oceanfront two bedroom unit has a large living room opening onto the pool deck and ocean beyond through sliding glass doors. A fully equipped kitchen and dining room are adjacent. The beautiful staircase leads up to the second floor Master Suite, which can be rented separately by locking the door at the top of the staircase and entering through a private exterior entry, or used as the master bedroom of a three bedroom house. The Master Suite has a King bed, a Jacuzzi tub with panoramic ocean view, a kitchenette area, with sink, fridge and coffee maker. The additional separate Luxury Studio, with full kitchen, full bathroom with shower, queen bed, and couch can be a private and complete fourth bedroom, or can be rented separately. The entire villa is attractively and comfortably furnished to make your stay even more enjoyable. Above the Luxury Studio, you will find the newly built Tortuga Suite. It features a king size bed, kitchenette, sunlit shower room, large screen TV and a private terrace overlooking the ocean. Like the Studio, it can be added to complete the 5 bedroom house or is available separately, depending on the season. El Castillo Maya sits side-by-side with Casa Azul del Caribe, another new house with four bedrooms. Owned separately, they share a lovely patio and swimming pool with swim up bar. They can be combined to sleep 16-20 people, making this a perfect place to host a family reunion or a wedding.

Mar 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great home with a great location and view! Stayed here for my 30th birthday party and we enjoyed the home very much! Great location and a FANTASTIC view. We had 11 people stay and we had plenty of space. There were blow-up mattresses there we set up in the living room for those who didn't want to share beds. The pool is perfect and the outdoor areas are very cool. Everyone who helps with the home helped us out while we stayed and they were awesome. Would definitely stay again! ##### Haleigh M. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pam B. Feb 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location This property is great for couples who want some privacy. We rented all five bedrooms. The location was great. You could walk to restaurants, bars,convenience, store, and to the marina. There is really no beach out front, it is pretty rocky but we did manage to go snorkeling at a reef right in front of the house. Our only complaint was that the queen beds did not seem like they were queens - they felt more like double beds. Also, there were three barking dogs that we heard every day across the street along with gas powered scooters and golf carts. The hosts was quick to reply and the cleaning lady came mid week to clean up. ##### Pam B. Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael P.

We loved the size of the pool, which you do share with the neighbors next door but no big deal. It was plenty big! With 2 apartments and a master suite there was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. We will definitely consider this house in the future! ##### Andrea M.

Plenty of parking for our golf carts. Some of the amenities were not available. The jacuzzi in the master bedroom was not operational as was the hot tub and restroom on the top deck. The home needed maintenance and upgrading to make it ideal. We still enjoyed our stay. We had some electrical issues and the maintenance man was very responsive to repair the situation. We had a great stay and would not take too much to bring this place back up to it original condition. If the upgrades were made, we would have no problem coming again. Its still a great and affordable place for a family. ##### Klaus L. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ellen J. Feb 9, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location #### Beautiful home, location and fun pool. The house is gorgeous, and the view spectacular, esp. from the rooftops! We are an extended family of 10 and didn't realize that 2 of the bedrooms were outside the main house with separate entries. We made the best of it, but it would have been nice to know that in advance. Yoyo and (Angelo?--Drew's asssistant) were very nice and helpful. My phone worked sporadically so I tried e-mailing Drew at the address on the instructions, but didn't get a response. I was eventually able to call him about other issues and he sent Yoyo to help out, which was wonderful:) ##### Ellen J. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Luisa M., Celina, US Aug 2, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in #### Great for a large family We chose this property because we have a large family. There were 9 adults and 5 kids. The design of the house is interesting and suited us all quite well. Would I stay here again? Probably not. The check in process was frustrating. We got keys from a lock box which is fine but we arrived to a completely dark and sweltering house. They knew we were coming but didn't so much as leave a fan or a light on. We couldn't find one of the bedrooms. When we did, the door was locked of course because they are accessible from the outside. We finally found keys in a basket on the kitchen table which would have been nice to know about. We spent far too long trying to find the rooms, keys, cool down the house, etc. No one there to greet us and feel welcome. The shower heads could use updating or cleaning as they are covered in calcium buildup. The master bath with the jet tub went unused because the water came out so slow it took 30 min to get 2 inches of water in there. A waste. The view was spectacular, the location was perfect., the pool was used a lot by the kids and they loved it. One or two umbrellas on the deck would have been nice as there was a lot of sun coverage. The grocery store was very close which was great because we cooked a lot. The available kitchenware was adequate but we could not get the oven to work. Stove worked fine. The housekeeper, Irma, was lovely. She stopped by the day after we arrived and introduced herself. She cleaned once while we were there but it would have been nice to have 2 cleanings. The property manager, Drew, was on vacation so Alfredo stopped by the day after we arrived and checked on us. Our TV was not working which was a very big deal to the sports fans (Soccer finals). The TV and a fan we could not get to work were fixed on Monday. The Wifi was spotty. Sometimes it was off but then came back. Beds were very nice. The people staying in the two downstairs Q bed rooms were getting bug bites. My bro-in law who is in pest control identified bed bugs. We alerted the management who said there are no bed bugs in Mexico. While that may be true something got them in bed every night and they killed a few of them. I trust they will look at it and take action if necessary. We had no security issues and kept our doors locked everywhere. The safes didn't work but we didn't have any thefts. I felt safe here and loved all the places within walking distance. A golf cart is a must though! All in all it was a decent place to stay. ##### Luisa M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael P. Dec 6, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing views & location! We will never stay in a hotel again in Isla. This house was incredible, the views, the location central to all, and the property managers made sure to communicate and respond promptly to our questions. We will rent this house for years to come!!!! ##### Michael P. Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa C.

The house is just gorgeous and is right on the water, and the pool was awesome. The hot tub in the main bedroom didn't work, but that was the only issue. The bedrooms are spacious, the AC was great, plenty of hot water, and you just can't beat the rooftop view. There are cafes and small shops within walking distance, but to get to town I recommend renting golf carts. There were 6 of us in the house and it felt very comfortable. I would definitely recommend this property! ##### Lisa C. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kay C.

We had two issues that were responded to immediately! We needed air mattress and sheets. Housekeepers brought sheets within 2 hours. There are air mattresses in the downstairs bedroom closet. There was no pump, but one was self inflating. It didn’t work well, so one slept on the couch. Had issue with door lock by pool and was responded to in timely manner. Beautiful view! We had Chef Josefano and Jorge come for two dinners and a breakfast. That was amazing! Felipe at Coco Jaguar arranged fishing trip on Roberto’s boat. Felipe then cooked our catch at the restaurant. Golf cart rental at Ciro’s was easy and the carts are great. Will be back! ##### Kay C. Stayed 7 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather S.

Large kitchen and living room fully equipped with everything we needed. Large bedrooms with master suite. Loved this vacation so much! ##### Heather S.

We had a large group of 11 and had the main house including the two self contained units that were right next door which gave a few of the older kids more privacy. Never needed the AC since being on the eastern coast with the constant breeze kept the entire place cool. ##### David B.

This house was excellent for our 2 families with pre-teen/teen kids. There were a few items that didn’t completely align with listing - bathtub in master didn’t work, rooftop ‘pool’ didn’t exist anymore and there was a weird open toilet on it, but overall it was a great stay. The views are amazing and location was away from the craziness of Hildalgo, but still within walking distance of quite a bit. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 13 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adam K.

As it was less than 5 minutes to get to downtown, this location was awesome. We could have our own place to relax. Stocked with lots of water and comfy beds, food and a market close by, and beautiful sunrises. I would stay here again and again. ##### Adam K.

We stayed farther north this time and this location was great! Walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants. The house was very clean and well maintained. We did have an issue with one of the safes and my email to the property never received a response. He did stop in a couple days later to check on things, but we had already solved the problem. More instructions in the house books wouldve been nice too... what day Irma comes, where to throw the garbage bags, etc. Just a couple small things to an otherwise AMAZING stay!! Thank you Jake for sharing your beautiful home with us. ##### Melissa H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan W.

Great location, clean and spacious house that worked great for the 9 of us. Pool was fantastic! Kitchen was a bit lacking in cookware and towels but it worked for us and they were very responsive. Only downside was that I got locked in an upstairs bathroom for 20 minutes. Lock got stuck and I had to shout out window to get help. Owner fixed right away but made me nervous about other similar locks in house. ##### Margaret K. Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Harper C.

Jan 22, 2019 #### Great house and hospitality This was a great house, right next to the ocean. We rented the entire house with 9 people. The hosts are very nice and want to help with whatever they can. Can't really say we had any problems. So great just to jump into the pool when it gets to hot and sticky. Master suite has spectacular views. Thank you Jake and team for the hospitality! ##### Dave W. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2018
