This residence has been carefully considered to engage the indoor-outdoor spaces which embrace groups. The ocean-facing living room invites guests to gather while birds dip into the infinity pool and dolphins pass in the ocean beyond.
Outside there is a lovely pool and terrace with plenty of space for socializing. There are sunbeds, beach chairs and hammocks to relax in. A hand-made ping-pong table sits under the terrace and easily converts to an outdoor dining table where beautiful sunsets can be toasted. You can have breakfast, lunch or dinner here. Relax as you watch a sailboat float by.
If you get tired of lying by the pool, rocking in a hammock, or looking at the view, the ocean is about 10 steps away. Flag down a fishing boat and buy some crab or fish recently caught or take a stroll along the sea and pick up shells that are part of everyday life here in Chuburná.
There is a well-equipped kitchen for getting creative culinary juices flowing. The bespoke Mayan-inspired dining room sits 8. Try eating breakfast by the garden terrace and dinner by the sea. If you prefer to stay out of the kitchen, we can arrange a Yucatán cook or international chef for your entire stay.

Tips regarding our generator:
Chuburná is a small, non-touristy fishing village with simple living conditions, and occasional power outages may occur. If the power goes out, our automatic generator will activate after 5 minutes and will power the basic appliances and lights. It can also run the bedroom air conditioners at night or the downstairs air conditioner during the day. Note that the generator can power most of the house, but not all at once, so please avoid using the laundry machines during this time.
If the generator turns on, please contact our property managers immediately. The generator cannot run for more than eight hours without a mandatory one-hour break. Our team will come over to turn it off for you during this break to prevent the motor from overheating. This step is vital to ensure the generator’s proper functioning.
