Amenities

Casa Laguna, an attractive and comfortable fully furnished family home, is located mid-island in Colonias (see map) on the island of Isla Mujeres.

Located behind a privacy gate, this fully-furnished property has two units: a two-story house and an apartment which can be a combined or separate rental.

The house has 2 bedrooms (1st floor double & 2nd floor queen), 2 full bathrooms (1st floor with a Jacuzzi and shower; 2nd floor with tub and shower), big living and dining area, spacious fully-equipped kitchen, garden patio, laundry-storage room and a large roof top terrace with a nice view of the Salina Grande (lake) and Caribbean Ocean two blocks away.

There are ceiling fans in all rooms, A/C in the bedrooms, a computer/work area, wi-fi throughout the house, cable TV available, interesting architectural touches and a walk-in closet in the upstairs bedroom. The very private and enclosed back yard of the house has a patio with ceiling fan and a beautiful garden with coconut, banana and lime trees. You can see the lake with herons, egrets and other native birds, while resting in the hammock on the patio.

The apartment has a kitchenette, dining area, bedroom (queen bed), bathroom with shower, and large terrace overlooking the garden and salina. All rooms have ceiling fans and there is A/C in the bedroom. The apartment is also wired for internet access (both wi-fi and LAN connection).

Around the Neighborhood – Colonias Meterologica is a truly local neighborhood that’s safe, lively and friendly, and Casa Laguna is located near its center, just steps away from many small, family owned shops. Just up the street is a great bakery, La Mexicana’s achiote-roasted chickens, local “cocina economicas” and several mini-supers.

A short walk away is Mango Cafe and Mochies. Also within walking distance are Ball Park Tacos, Daisy & Raoul’s, LoLo Lorena’s, Basto’s… even the new supermarket. You’ll also find stands for fresh squeezed juices, Cochinita Pibil, fruits and vegetables nearby. And what you can’t find comes to your door, thanks to the colorful vendors who walk or bicycle by selling fresh hot tortillas, tamales, ice cream, pastries and more.

The house is also adjacent to the Salina Grande Promenade, which is popular for walking and jogging. Also walkable: basketball, tennis, soccer and baseball. You’re just two blocks away from an incredible spot on the Caribbean coast, where you can see a glorious sunrise and climb down to a deserted beach for relaxing with a book, walking the beach and sea-glass hunting.

El Centro or downtown is a quick and easy 5 minute cab ride, as is the popular North Beach, a swimming and sunbathing oasis with beach bars. Bus service or taxis make any part of the island easily accessible to Casa Lagana.
