H ave what you're coming for. Marvelously quaint, the beachside main house, Casa Maya , its Zazil-Ha (Sparkling Waters) Bungalows, and its owner-host, Pepé Lima, are what tropical vacations are all about.

Located on Isla's famed beach Playa Norte , this 11 unit retreat offers the isle's best comfort and value.

There is a large combination kitchen and living room/library in the main house with a large video TV, and a portico with lounge chairs and hammocks overlooking the dazzling turquoise -and sunsets- of the Mayan Caribbean -while a small pier and water-sport concession caters to guests.

It is also most convenient. Only steps from the isle's cozy town, passenger shuttles ply their way to its pier at regular intervals throughout the day from Cancún's Beach Zone, and fishermen's suburbs of Puerto Juarez and Punta Sam.

Guests of Venture-Out's excursions who prefer Isla Mujeres as their vacation base, will find Casa Maya ideal.

Depending on the season, rates for a bungalow accommodating one to four persons can run from $30US to $45US/Day + 15% VAT Tax. For more photos click here: @
