Roomy accommodation in quiet beachfront town
Our group of seven had more than enough room to spread out at Casa Puerto Paraiso. The large beachfront patio and pool were favorite spots to spend time throughout the days and evenings. The home's layout allowed for welcome airflow through its central first-floor living space, with individual mini-split AC units in each bedroom and both sitting rooms, downstairs and upstairs. Juan was a communicative and helpful property manager who responded to our questions and needs. The property lacked hot water in some of the bathrooms, and over the course of the week we lost hot water everywhere but the kitchen. The issue was not resolved despite multiple visits from property personnel. We appreciated having an on-site washer and dryer for our weeklong stay. The beach here is narrow, with a large concrete erosion control barrier located a few feet out into the water that must be swum over or around. We spent more time in the pool than the Gulf. There were some insects inside the house, but never amounting to a full-on infestation. The neighborhood seems safe and quiet, within a short walk to downtown Chicxulub and a quick drive to Progreso. It was especially quiet in October, with many local restaurants, shops, and attractions closed until the winter tourist season begins.
