The villa is located on quiet Isla Mujeres, a short distance off the coast of the Yucatan peninsula and accessible via ferry from Cancun. Ringed with colorful coral reefs and home to schools of many exotic fish, the area is popular for snorkeling and scuba diving. It is just a five-minute walk to the nearest beach and a few minutes to town. Vibrant colors, sunbathed and open rooms and the soothing sounds of water define Casa Zama. Carefully crafted by its owners, who worked with a renowned local architect, the home is a modern take on traditional Mexican design, immersed with earthy elements like stone and wood. Art and artifacts appear around every corner.
Accommodations for 8 include two deluxe suites plus one bedroom with twin bunk beds, suitable for younger guests. All of the bedrooms are air-conditioned and have bathrooms en suite, complete with luxurious rain showers and even ocean views. The spacious living/dining area is white and bright and leads straight out to the pool deck, which overlooks the ocean from its elevated position. A thatched bar area by the pool is great for entertaining in the evening and mixing sunset cocktails. There is a rooftop stone terrace with loungers for quieter sessions under the sun or stars. Casa Zama has every tech amenity available, from a home theater sound system with iPod docking station and wireless DSL Internet for guests' use free of charge.
Isla Mujeres has many enjoyable activities that range from relaxing on the beach with an icy cocktail, to tangling with a mighty sailfish on a sport fishing excursion to swimming with dolphins and whalesharks. You can also take advantage of the islands’ proximity to many other great excursions such as Tulum. If you are interested in scuba diving, there are several great dive facilities located on Isla Mujeres. Diving around the island provides a wonderful experience for beginning, intermediate and experienced divers. There are reefs in shallow, low current water for the new divers to reef drift dives for the more experienced. For the truly experienced, try the Cave of the Sleeping Sharks on one of the local shipwrecks like Ultra Freeze. At least a one day notice is required for the smaller dives. Information is readily available near the ferry dock as well as the downtown dive shops.
Garrafón Natural Reef Park is a snorkel park located at the southern tip (Punta Sur) of Isla Mujeres. This park is unique as there is a reef located just a few feet off the shore with many colorful fish. This makes for wonderful snorkeling without having to book a trip or get on a boat. For those not interested in snorkeling there are lots of hammocks and chairs for resting, a huge pool for cooling yourself and plenty of staff just waiting to bring you snacks, lunch or drinks!! This is a great day trip for families with small children.
