Casa De Glorioso began the first time we visited the island without us even realizing it! We love looking at local real-estate and architecture no matter where we travel and Isla was no different. But the difference was we knew this was a place we could really enjoy coming back to, and we did! After the 3rd visit we knew a home of some kind was in our future. Once we stepped foot into LaDiosa we were sold. Our home is the perfect size for our family as well as being the only 2 bedroom home in the development. So we felt very lucky to have driven our golf cart into the development that beautiful sunny day and signed the papers on our dream vacation home.
When we vacation, good food, fantastic people, and a wonderful beach are a must and Isla does it for us! Let's talk about the food! This little island is truly a foodie's paradise. There is something for everyone - American, Mediterranean, Italian, French, Asian and of course Mexican with the freshest seafood you can get. A few on the top of our list are Rosa Sirenas (roof top, open air, live music), Fuego De Mar (the tuna appetizer is over the top), Casa Rolandi at Zoetry (live music over the water looking at Cancun), Limon (get the mussels). These are just a few of our favorites.
Playa Norte (North Beach) is considered one of the top 10 beaches in the world and is a wonderful place to enjoy an afternoon. You will love the soft white sand and water so blue the sky looks pale. Relax and unwind and forgot about the stress of life. After a day at the beach you must walk Hidalgo and check out the shops, live music, and enjoy the party! For those that like to explore the ocean, MUSA is a must. This is an innovative project designed to counteract the effects of climate change on our oceans and reef systems. These underwater sculpures change overtime, as coral grows and marine life establishes itself. Don't forget Garrafon Park on the southern tip of the island down the street from our house. You can't beat these breathtaking views! For the young ones in our lives, or just the young at heart, check out the turtle farm, dolphin discovery and Parque de Los Suenos (water park).
This is a beautiful, peaceful paradise that you can easily, safely explore day or night. On any given day of the week, one can find a wonderful lively nightlife or a wonderful peaceful evening on your own private rooftop at Casa de Glorioso. Our best recommendation, please get in your golf cart and go explore and enjoy this simple slice of heaven. Our hope is you love the people and this island as much as we do and you return year after year as a guest of our little island home, Casa de Glorioso!
