Michelle M. Oregon: This is my second stay at Casa Colel Luna. This time three couples stayed there and with the design of the house it was possible to eat meals together as well as to have private reading and siesta time.The home is very clean and well maintained. Every room has a lovely open air balcony that gives you even more room in your bedroom area. The villa is lovely both inside and out. The location is ideal for walking into town, jogging, and swimming. In town it is easy to change money, rent a car and arrange for tours and trips even if you have no knowledge of Spanish. We were out early and up late eating at restaurants and walking on the beach and we always felt safe. Everything is in excellent shape inside the house and it was always filled with fresh flowers. Whenever we dealt with the owners they were helpful and very pleasant. Highly recommended for a stay, do stay as long as possible! We are planning on returning for more stays.

I stayed in Casa Colel Luna for a week in January. The house is comfortable, spacious and well-maintained. The house is designed to benefit from the wonderful sea breeze, especially on the second and third floors. The location of the house is practically ideal. Even though it's in Playacar, it's still very close to town (it's an easy ten minute stroll to the pier where the ferry to and from Cozumel docks). It's also only a couple of minutes away from a beautiful, uncrowded beach. The overseer of the house was friendly, accessible and extremely helpful. The maid cleaned the house three times during our stay, and she left the house completely spotless. I have been to Playa del Carmen twice before, and I stayed in hotels both times. Staying at Casa Colel Luna was better in every way than staying in a hotel.

Oh my, I hope you decide to make that trip to Playa del Carmen and arrange to stay at Casa Colel Luna. You will be so happy that you did! The house is wonderfully spacious, open and comfortable. You have all the conveniences of being in a home, rather than the formality of hotel life to look forward to. The house is casual and "user friendly," and on the third level you can see the ocean and catch a glimpse of Cozumel across the way. There are 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, hammocks to swing in (or doze in!), and the on site caretaker of the property speaks fluent English and is quickly responsive to any request you may feel you need to make of her. It is a pleasant ten minute walk to town, where you can enjoy shopping and many restaurants and then more shopping on your way home. I had a great sense of personal safety in these evening walks, as the Mayan people are cordial and welcoming to tourists. You can also walk to the ferry dock, if you wish to take a day trip over to Cozumel. As well, it is a matter of only a few minutes walk to reach the beach and a refreshing dip in the Caribbean. The beach may have a dozen people on it--but that would be a crowd! When you return a bit hot from your time on the beach, you can enjoy a refreshing dip in the natural rock "cenote style" pool. Our group made a habit of having gin and tonics each day around 5 before deciding which of the many restaurants in town would be the best for dinner that evening.
In addition to the amenities of the house, you will be within easy reach of many of the local attractions (the water park at Xcaret, the lagoons at Xel Ha (wonderful snorkeling there), the ruins at Tulum just to name a few) and there is only one major highway to gain access to these, so getting lost isn't an option. I don't know what more I can say, except that the Mendeses give good value for the money. I hope you enjoy your vacation on the Riviera Maya. I know we always do!

My friends and I have stayed at Colel Luna two years in a row. Each year we enjoyed the house with fresh breezes flowing through the many windows and patios. The views from each room is different and there is an easy walk to the beach that is private and beautiful. The house is comfortable and very functional for a small family or a group of active adults. It is walking distance to shopping, restaurants and nightlife (if you choose). It is accessible to many activities - a short trip to many different snorkeling sites, to Mayan Ruins and only a 45-minute ferry ride to Cozumel. It is a house with a lot of charm and warmth that will be enjoyed by many satisfied guests.
