Las Tunas - Beachfront home in Telchac Puerto

We had a fabulous 14-day stay. The house and property are exactly as advertised. Judy was excellent, in sharing a colourful guide to Telchac Puerto prior to our arrival, to sending a pic of Francisco the property caretaker (so you know who you're greeting), to making sure the hot meal provided on our first night met any dietary restrictions. The hot meal was wonderful and more than enough for the two of us for a few meals. Beds and furniture were comfy and the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you are used to at home. Honestly, the whole house is equipped with everything you need and it feels like a home away from home because it is one. Towels (lots!), shampoo, bodywash, games, cooking oils, coffee, ice were all there for us on arrival. Francisco was such a gem, and without perfect English manages to make sure your stay and everything in the house is running smoothly for you! Roll with the punches and ebbs and flows here. This is not Canada or the US with unlimited resources. The wifi can be spotty on occasion, there is not unlimited water on demand, the entire town may suffer a power outage for most of a day (as it did when we were there), and there will be mosquitos. Such is life. None of these things are controllable. Respect your resources available, and don't let any lack skew your stay at a very welcoming and lovely home - and have fun!Lastly, I would say that apart from the sand potentially, I see this house as accessible and mobility device friendly.

Our family was looking for a place away from the crowds and on the water. We found one in Judy’s home. She was always there for tips on good places to shop and eat. Francisco, the caretaker, was very friendly and always had a smile for us. Though we didn’t know much Spanish, he was really good with Google translate. The house itself had everything we needed to cook our meals. What impressed me was there were several ways to make a good cup of coffee! And, as I told Judy, the home had a very relaxing vibe to it. It was just what our family was looking for. Thank you Judy, for sharing!

The pictures don’t do it justice. Everything from the beach to the pool were perfect. Judy is a wealth of information and made the who process seamless. When we got the Francisco took it from there. Regular cleanings, we got him to prepare food for us a few times and we were never disappointed. He lives at the front of the property but you never really see him. We found it easy to find even late at night. Lots of options for food also. We will be back very soon. We have stayed in a lot of vrbo’s and this was one of the best.

We've stayed in this (sleepy, beautiful) area of the Yucatan a few times and Judy's place is by far the most well-kept, magical home we've booked. From the lentil (we're vegetarian) dinner that met us when we arrived, and Francisco's attention and kindness throughout, to the private, lovely outdoor space -- every detail was so thoughtful. Judy is a great communicator and ambassador for the region. We had Christmas here with our grown kids -- very special memory for us. Francisco even gave us a box of shell decorations for a branch tree. Thanks for an amazing break in this wonderful part of Mexico.

This is an amazing location and property.It has it all and you will find Judy the property owner and the property manager Franciso wonderful people to deal with. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommended booking some time at Los Tunas if you want to get away from the tourist crowds. Lots to see and do if you don't mind traveling an hour or two by car( cenotes,Mayan temples, Flamingos etc.).

We've visited the Yucatan from the USA several times and Las Tunas is our favorite stay so far. The house itself is very spacious and well maintained. The most amazing feature is the outdoor space which is very thoughtfully designed and exquisitely maintained. Several different lounging areas in which to seek shade or sun as desired and enjoy the birds. The beach is fabulous. We visited in high season but saw very few people and almost no power craft in the water - very peaceful. It feels like you could walk along the beach forever - the beach walk to Telchac Puerto was quite doable for us. Wish we had more time to explore the area. Angelito's restaurant is a must. The onsite caretaker is an added bonus and if we stayed longer would have taken more advantage of his knowledge of the area. For us, Xcambo ruins were much more enjoyable than Tulum. The mangrove boat tour at Manglar de san Cristano wasn't spectacular but worth the short drive and small cost. Pig Beach near Progreso was touristy as expected but worth a short visit. There were conflicting internet reports of when the pigs would be let out. We were there Jan 5 2023 and they were let out 11:00 am sharp for 30 minutes. The only chance of interacting with the pigs was buying some feed for 20 pesos. If you are looking for a vacation oriented towards amenities and staff fluent in English, I don't recommend the area. If you are comfortable enjoying friendly, small town Mexico - this is an awesome property!

The only reason I fear placing this review is others will find this piece of heaven and I want it for myself alone!! The house is perfect, and service from both the owner and the property manager was awesome. You will find everything you need to make your stay truly comfortable. We received a welcome meal on our arrival and decided to hire the manager's wife to cook breakfast for us during our stay (which was a magnificent idea). Pool temperature was ideal. One of the best parts of our trip (which have nothing to do with the property itself but with its location) is that we got to experience the birth of tens of turtles while walking on the beach (totally out of the blue) Restaurants, convenience stores, pharmacy, all close by (2 mile radius)

Spacious and comfortable with very comfortable beds. It's a dreamy location as you are steps from the gulf where the water is perfect for swimming. The host was super helpful before and during our stay, and the onsite caretaker is great, too. A delicious lentil stew is provided your first night, and that was very welcome after many restaurant meals in Merida.

We stayed for 5 weeks, it was a very quiet vacation. At our stay we saw the neighbours a total of 4 times. Judy our host was easy to communicate with helped us get a dish setup for some Olympic watching.also gave us good contacts for groceries and restaurants. The village was very friendly. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

From being greeted by Gaby, caretaker of property, who made us a delicious lentil stew upon arrival to the leisurely beach strolls to the comfortable beds, this property is fantastic. Judy, owner of the property, was in touch before, during and after our stay. And, she is a wealth of information. We have rented many properties in the U.S. and the Caribbean, but this was the saddest to leave. For certain, we will return!
