Our group had a great time in Tulum at Casa Guayaba (June 2017)! Tatiana and Sebastien were excellent hosts and took care of every need that our large group of friends had. They made us an awesome breakfast one morning, answered every question we had about the Tulum area, and even found me a bag of rice to put my phone in after I dropped it in the water. :) We look forward to coming back one day, as our trip was nearly perfect thanks to our great and accommodating hosts!

This place is fabulous! The renter is such a friendly guy. He provided heaps of information and hints on where to go to and is always up for a nice chat :) The location of the villa is great. Everything is easy to reach and it’s located centrally (e.g. bike renting, supermarket, best tacos in town :)) The room is big and absolutely clean. The kitchen is well equipped and water is provided. The bed is an absolute dream!!! :) The entire place is super clean. The pool area really nice with attention to detail! This place is absolutely recommendable and we will definitely go back :)

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Guayaba. We had so much space and common areas to gather. All 6 kids (between 2 families) had their privacy and space to spread out. The AC was heavenly for those few hours that got really hot, and the breezes and ceiling fans kept our oasis comfortable. The place is a lovely villa with local artistic influence evident in the tilework. The garden is more filled in than in the photo, but in a wonderful way, providing lovely shade and lush poolside greenery. The privacy and freedom to plan our adventures from our "home" was fantastic. No long trip to the pool or parking lot - - this is like staying at your friend's wonderful vacation home. And also, the location is perfect: a walled and gated enclave to keep the hustle and bustle of the city out. Even more helpful is that the location is a very short distance to all the necessities: ATM (banks, grocery store), huge grocery store (Chedraui), shops with souvenirs (many dot the main street), Oxxo (like a 7-Eleven), the best ceviche restaurant around (El Camello Cevicheria Jr.), great breakfast/lunch spot (Burrito Amor), short drive or bike ride to Tulum ruins & beaches (although driving a short distance to beaches is better), 35 min. drive to Coba ruins, 2 hour drive to Chichen Itza (sounds long, but start at 8am, see the ruins for about an hour and a half, then stop at the beautiful town of Valladolid for lunch on the way back, or the amazing cenote that graces the cover of the Lonely Planet guide to the Yucatan, to break up the drive). The convenience of having a rental car and staying at this villa far surpassed our typical resort experience in that we wanted lots of activities with our kids (4 High Schoolers, a Middle Schooler, and a Third Grader). As with most vacation spots where you want to enjoy an open window breeze in the night, bring earplugs just in case. I always travel with them, so that morning birdsong or the occasional construction sounds don't wake me up. The beds were comfortable, the teens loved their independence in their separate units in the same villa, it was clean, tidy, and they provided plenty of good quality, filtered water in the kitchen. Having a refrigerator with icemaker was nice for some homemade margaritas, and the kitchens were equipped nicely for french press coffee and basics for cooking. The only things we purchased extra of were some kleenex tissues (comfort of home) and another package of toilet paper (we had 10 people!).

Soy de Barcelona y mi mujer de Mexico. Decidimos casarnos en Tulum y Casa Guayaba fue el lugar donde estube unas 2 semanas con los amigos de Europa.Creo que no hubieramos encontrado un sitio mejor. Son dos plantas identicas con un salon-comedor-cocina espectacular que comunica por distintas pueras a 3 habitaciones. Adosado hay una suite con cocina-comedor y baño propios. Una casa de veraneo familiar en perfecto estado. La piscina es un plus que se agradece mucho cuando llegas acalorado, o simplemente de relax tomando algo.La situacion me pareció idonea, esta lejos del centro, pero lo justo. A pie puedes ir a una de las mejores cevicherias de Tulum, y otros sitios donde desayunar o comer unos tacos.Los dueños de la casa son encantadores y prudentes, no te sentirás "invadido", al contrario, te recomiendo dejarte aconsejar por ellos. Sin duda, si vuelvo a Tulum, repito experiencia.Esta opinion vale por doce personas mas, que compartieron el tiempo en la Casa Guayaba y todos y cada uno de nosotros nos sentimos como en casa.
