What comes to mind when you think of a tropical vacation? Azure blue water and white sand beaches? Thatched roofs? Palm trees? Palapas with hammocks? Friendly, laid-back guesthouse hosts? This place has those things. It’s what you want. Do you really want to fly all the way down to the tip of Mexico to hang out with elevnty-billion other Americans? Hell fuck no. You come here to carve out a slice of serenity. Warm, sandy, sticky serenity. Casas Del Corazon offers a strong chill vibe. Located on Soliman Bay, just a few clicks north of Tulum, this is the place to go to be removed from the action, but close enough to enjoy restaurants, etc. But during the day, the beach is yours. Corazon consists of a few casas of varying sizes. Adobe walls, thatched roofs, plantation blinds with screens, ceiling fans, some A/C, kitchens in units, a small pool, nice palapas, kayaks and SUP boards for use, and a lot of time to do a whole lot of nothing. The hosts here are friendly and laid back. From Virginia, they made the right choice. Buy property on the beach, bail out, and live the life. They were present to assist us but not up in our business. Perfect balance. Plenty of good advice and lots of resources. Accommodations are comfortable. Not luxury, but just the kind of thing we wanted. We could open the blinds at night and let the breeze blow through the room. Our kitchen was stocked out and ready to rock. And if you want to pay, they have someone who can come in and cook dinner for you. You can see my main downside to this place in my review of Soliman Bay itself, but as far as the accommodations themselves, I loved the mix of traditional, rustic and modern. Just writing this makes me want to go back!
