Cottage vacation rentals in Yucatan

Am I sleeping in an art gallery? Or is it a botanical garden? Or a wine making lab? My host in Maxcunú, Adolfo, is a retired university researcher. He’s an agronomy engineer, but has several hobbies he’s passionate about, always focused primarily on the culture and lands of the Maya. My room, called "Tropical Birds", has remarkable works of art, and indeed, the whole property is covered with fascinating artworks. Adolfo volunteered to pick me up and drop me off at the Tren Maya station, which in any case is near town. It's a pleasant small town, safe to walk at night. Apart from Adolfo's own art gallery and botanical gardens and a few places around the plaza, there's not a lot of touristic interest right in town, but it's well located for several Maya sites, caves, and walking in the hills. The facility is as described with all the things you'd expect in a good airbnb. This is one place where conversation with the host is a definite plus, with his extraordinary wealth of knowledge.

TODO totalmente increíble un hermoso lugar que en verdad te hace sentir con ganas de quedarte más días, todo excelente , decoración hermosa, todo impecablemente limpio la cocina!!! un 1000!!!

Lugar precioso pasamos unos días muy agusto en familia

excelente anfitrión muy atento está al pendiente por cualquier cosa que se ofrezca, las cabañas está bonitas y confortables

El trato de la anfitriona muy buena, muy atenta y al pendiente. la casa era cómoda, limpia, lugar tranquilo para descanso y familiar. si volvería. nos gustó mucho el espacio de al frente, había suficiente espacio para jugar fútbol o alguna actividad. había para colgar hamacas por todas partes, super bien. te dejan dos toallas y dos hamacas. si nos gustó.

I truly hope to come back to this place, it was so cool. Beds are comfortable and the place is truly unique. I was worried the jungle sounds would be too loud to sleep but it was great. Pool was amazing. Some tips: Ask for detailed instructions for check in prior to arrival, (show pictures of the house as staff may take you to the wrong one) take screenshots of wifi login info so you can reach the outside world once you arrive to the house (as we had no cell reception, and I had trouble with the lock as it was a new type to me), if the lock is new to you, ask someone to show you how to both lock and unlock the door, bring food and everything you need as it really is out there, be prepared to ask for help in Spanish from onsite staff. We didn’t have trouble with any critters in our rooms or shoes but be careful opening the kitchen drawers as some like to hide in there. Finally, the natural environment is amazing, don’t miss the star gazing on the rooftop!

Militza was quick to respond. Great location to good restaurants around the area. Easy walking to the beach, the Malecon and downtown. Loved the sitting area in front wish the back had chairs but oh well, we made it work.

We loved staying at this jungle house. it was in a beautiful location close to coba and tulum. host was responsive and easy to communicate with.

We loved our stay in the Manor! Exceeded expectations, for sure. Wish we had more time to spend and relax here! If I’m ever back in Sabancuy I would stay here in a heartbeat. Close to cenotes & ruins. Friendly people in a friendly town!

Una casa muy bonita, espacios para todo momento, cocina y sala bien equipados al igual que los cuartos y baños, no se arrepentirán de pasar un fin de semana en este bello lugar.

Ik bracht de laatste 2 weken van mijn reis in dit huisje door om in afzondering te werken. Deze plek was betoverend en inspirerend! Wanneer de zee woelig is, ziet die er een beetje donker uit omwille van de aangespoelde grassen (dus inderdaad geen hagelwit strand en blauwe zee). Maar ik vond de nabijheid van het water en het constante geluid van de golven ontzettend rustgevend! Ik hield van de afgelegen locatie van dit charmante dorpje. Ik had een huurwagen. Dorpje Dzitzantun, waar je boodschappen kan doen, is ongeveer 20 min rijden maar Yavier was zo vriendelijk om boodschappen mee te brengen, indien nodig. Hij en zijn vrouw Melba waren heel vriendelijk en hulpvaardig! Ze haalden bv kokosnoten uit de boom en sneden deze doormidden zodat ik kokossap kon drinken. Het huis is goed uitgerust en een beetje verouderd maar dat vond ik niet erg. In het tegenoverliggende meer woont een alligator die we konden spotten, heel cool! Cenote Dzonot Dziik (20min rijden) is een bezoekje waard!

Fue excelente el lugar, muy hermoso, tan agradable que incluso no dan ganas de salir del lugar, lo súper recomiendo.

Suzy’s house is beautiful, as is the setting. Very tranquil and peaceful, yet still only a 30 minute drive or so to the beach and also close to Coba. Suzy was super helpful with recommendations and very communicative throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of Tulum downtown.

We loved staying at the Hacienda for new years. Everything was perfect. Don Sam was always there to help us with anything. We had a wonderful weekend!

Excelente lugar, te sientes como en casa. Todo super lindo, sin duda volvería a esta casa.

Una opción muy buena para estancias familiares, cada habitación tiene su baño, la piscina es de buen tamaño, el muelle privado fue nuestra parte favorita. Llevamos una tabla y recorrimos el manglar.

I had the most incredible time at Zen Canto! The place is beautiful and so are the people who are taking care of it! Can recommend it 100% and look forward to being back! Thank you 💛

This place is a humble, beautiful, dream-like beach home. It feels personal and real — not overdone or trying too hard. Just the essentials, done right. You can tell a lot of care went into creating a space that’s easy to settle into. The vibe is peaceful and low-key, and it really lets the natural beauty of Celestún shine. If you’re looking for a relaxed, authentic spot to unwind by the sea, this is it.

Awesome! The grounds are truly breathtaking; everyday there was something new to catch my eye - a flower, a bird, an iguana, a frog, different fruits, herbs... The pool was great. The outside patio area was fantastic for sunning, having meals, relaxing and entertaining. The cottage had everything I needed - strong internet, new/clean kitchen appliances, tv... and more!! Benjamin and his father are very, very kind and helpful. My dog enjoyed the space to run and play. It was a vacation I will remember forever and I hope to return.

Great place - lots of space. Incredible sunsets.Great kitchen outside eating areas and grill.
