Casitas del Mar is an adult-only property that is nestled on the edge of the friendly neighborhood, La Gloria, Casitas del Mar offers you the opportunity to experience the welcoming local ambiance. Collect beautiful shells and sea glass as you stroll along the rocky and sandy shore or relax on the patio as you watch the world, and perhaps a few dolphins, go by.
Oceanfront and ideally located mid-island, you have easy access to all island sites by walking or a quick, inexpensive taxi ride. It’s the best of both worlds! There is a full service grocery store, laundry service, and several neighborhood restaurants, all within easy walking distance.
Perfect for singles, couples or groups of friends, each of the 4 suites at Casitas del Mar has been tastefully decorated with a Mexican flair. Your Canadian hosts, Joyce and Bob (Isla residents since 1993), have carefully equipped each suite with everything you need to make you feel at home.
The shore in front of the Casitas is rocky and, while excellent for collecting shells and sea glass, it is not conducive to swimming most of the year due to a strong wave action. Enclosed water shoes are strongly recommended.
Walking anywhere is an option, however, taxis are readily available on the street and very inexpensive (less than $2 U.S. from the Casitas to downtown). You can also take a bus for 4 pesos per person (less than 40 cents U.S.).
The closest swimmable beach, approximately ¼ mile from the Casitas, is Playa Lancheros. Zama Beach Club, in Sac Bajo, has 3 beautiful swimming pools and full-service restaurant as well as a lovely beach. The most popular beach on Isla Mujeres, located at the north end of Isla approximately 3 miles away, is Playa Norte (North Beach).

Neighborhood
Mid-island:
Experience the island like a member of the local community – that’s what staying mid-island feels like. If you enjoy stepping off the beaten path, exploring the back streets, eating at the best-kept secrets, and getting a dose of peace and quiet while you take it all in, mid-island is the place for you. Located a short drive (or a healthy walk) from both El Centro and Punta Sur, you have the best of both worlds. You’re not far from the local grocery store, the ferry landing, laundromats, and a few small local eateries. Your view includes the rugged beauty of the Caribbean side of the island, which has dramatic rocky outcroppings, frothy waves, and a horizon line that stretches on forever. It’s easy to rent bicycles or a golf cart and start exploring when you’re already right in the middle of it all.
Concierge service included
As with every property listed with Isla Mujeres Vacation Rentals, Casitas del Mar comes with personalized, friendly concierge service from one of our local staff. This complimentary service takes all the stress out of your travels. We can arrange your transportation to the property from the airport, meet you upon arrival, help you get settled and, if you’re interested, introduce you to the island we love. We are experienced (often born-and-raised) locals who have island-wide connections and who are passionate about helping others fall in love with Isla’s charm, beauty, and warmth through flawless vacations. We can help you plan outings, arrange to rent a golf cart or make dinner recommendations. Looking for a higher level of luxury and care? For an additional price, we can even pre-stock your fridge with your favorites before your arrival, welcome you with fresh guacamole and margaritas, and have private outings reserved for you and your guests.
