- Cenote Eden, one of the cenotes worth the walk, for a freshwater swim.*
- A beach morning, then a slow lunch. The beaches are written up by walking distance.
- The Cozumel ferry, 4 minutes on foot from Uva De Mar, is your way to a day on the reef. Here is what to do there.
- Xcaret and Xel-Ha, with exclusive guest rates on every stay. More things to do.
*Cenote Eden is a 10 to 15 minute walk to the minibus from any of our properties. Then it's 20 to 25 minutes by minibus.
Which home has a pool for the kids?
Only Mayalun has a pool. If a pool is non-negotiable for your kids, pick that one. If the beach is the plan, Casitas and Uva De Mar answer with a walk to the sand. You also get space to come back to. Not sure? Our neighbourhood comparison lays out the three side by side.
Rates depend on your dates and party size. See the exact figure on any home's booking page before you commit. You are booking direct, so no platform fee is inside it.
Questions from families
How many people can we fit?
The one-bedroom homes sleep up to 4, and the sofa bed comfortably sleeps one adult or two kids. The duplexes at all three collections are two fully private units that sleep up to 8. Each has its own entrance.
Is there a pool?
Mayalun has a rooftop pool, a short elevator ride from the apartment. It is shared with the other guests staying in the building. It is the only stay in the Tranquilo portfolio with an on-site pool. Casitas and Uva De Mar have no pool, and each answers with a beach and a neighbourhood instead.
Can we cook for the kids?
Yes. Every home has a full induction kitchen or a kitchenette. Each comes with a stove, blender, microwave, and fridge-freezer, so breakfast never depends on a queue.
What about laundry?
Casitas, Mayalun, and Uva De Mar each have a laundromat next door. A week with kids never costs you a vacation day.
Do we need a rental car?
No. Beaches, restaurants, and the ADO terminal are on foot from Uva De Mar. The minibus stop is 10 minutes on foot from Casitas. Casitas also includes complimentary bicycles (subject to availability), beach chairs, and umbrellas.
Can two families share one duplex?
That is what the duplex is built for. Each unit has its own entrance, bed setup, and kitchen or kitchenette. Two families get their own space and a shared door to the street.
