Villa #1 -Isla Retreats: Tropical Gardens and Pool

I was more than pleasantly surprised by this villa. Everything was new and immaculate! The villa was very spacious and had every accommodation one would want. The housekeeping service was top-notch. Our host, Katy, was very kind and friendly. She lined up a golf cart for us and gave recommendations on activities and restaurants. This is a very special property, centrally located and just beautiful.

We stayed for 7 days. Absolutely wonderful!!! Highly recommend beautiful rooms, spacious villa.. SPOTLESS! I can’t say enough! So friendly and helpful staff. And Katy herself is very responsive, kind and helpful! Great access not too close not fad!! Pool is amazing.. kitties are sweet! Definitely would recommend!

You will not find a better place in Isla, Katy is a gracious host!!!

Perfect location on the island. Looks just like the pictures, beautiful, clean and staff top-notch. Definitely booking here again.

Property was everything we expected and more, and Katy was wonderful to work with! Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a place on Isla Mujeres.

Truly a gem on Isla Mujeres. Had a wonderful stay. Isla Retreats provided a nice, quiet sanctuary to stay while on vacation. Filled with natural foliage, a salt water pool, ample parking for golf carts and clean villas. Highly recommended for couples or small families.

Wonderful experience!

One of the most beautiful properties you will find. The grounds are lush and well lit and manicured. The units are custom built and very nicely constructed. The salt water pool was perfect and very nice with outdoor shower and bathroom steps away from the water. Golf cart parking was a breeze and outdoor palapa with bar and fridge were a nice touch.

The property was clean and the host Katy was communicative with any question , her Dad Dave was super nice and recommended a nice restaurant for us to try. The Villa #3 was very clean and spacious it was only my husband and I but it has an adjoining room if needed. The cleaning staff were also friendly and they were there if needed during business hours. I booked this place last minute and I would recommend! Also, they can arrange a golf cart to the property just be sure to wait at the Palapa for it at the set time. Everything here was ez breezy. Pros - In the middle of island , easy to get around with a golfcart - convenience store nearby - felt safe as security was on property - friendly hosts Cons - cats on the property one snuck in when I opened my door and I am not an animal lover (this would not prevent me from coming back not a huge deal)

This was my first stay in a VRBO and I have to say that I am really impressed. Normally I am a resort person - an all-inclusive resort person. For this trip, my wife and I were looking for a more affordable, long-ish term place to stay in a less touristy area. We booked just a few days in advance and in hindsight, I am amazed that this property was available. First, the communication with and from Katy, the host, was exceptional. We had no issues at all in booking, and Katy was even kind enough to reserve a golf cart for us and have it waiting at the property upon our arrival. When we did have an issue with one of the air conditioners losing its cool, I emailed Katy and she had a maintenance person on it within 5-10 minutes. I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a full-time maintenance person on-site every day and a cleaning staff of two or three that kept the rooms, grounds, and pool all in a fantastic state of cleanliness. The room we had (#1) was exactly as-pictured with a perfectly sized, appointed, and cooled bedroom on one end, a large bath with two sinks in the center, then an ample living room, a dinette, and a complete kitchen. The mattress was comfortable and the bedding was really just right. Hot water was plentiful with small hot water tanks in the bath and kitchen. We never ran out of hot water. The kitchen was fully stocked with nice glassware, plates, and flatware. We used the kitchen just a few times in our two weeks there since the food scene on Isla is just crazy-good. This brings us to the location. With the centralized location on the island, it takes 5-7 minutes to get to either end. No beach, no problem. There are plenty of easy-access beach clubs on the island. Our intent was to spend time relaxing and decompressing from a series of stressful months at home. This was the perfect place for us.
