Would stay again

Girls trip, first time to Isla Mujeres. Would return and stay at this listing. Ixchel is a lovely property with beautiful grounds and laidback feel. Perfect location, just a few moments away from all the action on either the beach, pool or main entertainment street. Walking distance to grocery store and multiple convenient stores. Sunset hot tub time is not to be missed!Cecelia and her team were friendly and responsive. There were some maintenance issues at the condo that were addressed by the team in a timely fashion. Hope to stay again!

Stay was very comfortable. Service was excellent. Staff was exceedingly helpful and friendly. Weather was beautiful. Lots of wonderful food and drink. Loved the beach. Isla Mujeres has all the activity you may want or is a very pleasant place to do virtually nothing.

This place was amazing, a gem. I booked for friends and family, more specifically for a birthday weekend getaway and all guests were wowed by the location and all the amenities offered by Cecilia’s Penthouse. My family already is looking forward to staying there again, as we are frequent travelers to this beautiful island. Thank you, Cecilia and Chema for the excellent communication and service.

Ixchel Beach Hotel

We loved our 5th floor penthouse…beautiful views from large patio w/ hot tub. The kitchen was well furnished including coffee/tea/milk so we did not have to run out to be ready for next morning after traveling all day. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We loved going down to beach for breakfast 🥰. The bedrooms are large w/ comfortable beds…great to have 3 bathrooms 👍. I would recommend for your trip to Isla🙋‍♀️

Great Place!

We loved our stay at this beautiful property. It was the perfect choice for our group of friends. The rooftop patio off the master bedroom was amazing! So thankful for the elevator access to the master bedroom because the stairs to the master was not a positive of this space! 😆 Communication was terrific and we appreciated how smooth everything went in regards to rides and checkin! We will definitely return!!

Location location location!

The property is in a great location close to everything and on a beautiful beach. The rooms are big and the property is very clean. The owner and everyone we dealt with was friendly, very responsive and easy to communicate with. We had some issues with water leaking when it rained and the hot tub never got above mid 90’s which was a bummer on the cloudy/rainy days. The views and the beach chairs/access are amazing. Overall we had a great stay.

The perfect condo in the perfect location

I cannot say enough good things about this property. Ultra communicative management, amazing location close to everything and a roof deck with fantastic amenities… They asked if we had any suggestions for management when we departed and I honestly can’t think of a thing I would change. Even the recommendations for restaurants and excursions were spot on (rent the catamaran for a day!!!) can’t wait to come back! We absolutely loved our entire trip! The perfect mix of relaxation and liveliness!
