About this property

Private Villa -Panoramic Sea Views- South End

Located on the south end of the island, Casa De Mariposas is one of the most colorful Villas on the Island paradise of Isla Mujeres. Off the main road, it is away from traffic and is perfect for families, retreats or small gatherings. The villa has two main bedrooms with private bathrooms, King size memory foam beds and a double sofa bed in the living room. It sleeps five but is most suitable for groups of four. The main bedrooms are on the ground floor, adjacent to the pool , and the upper floors have two open air dining terraces, spacious living room, guest bathroom, kitchen and very private roof top terrace with a Mayan wood shaded pergola. The villa enjoys wonderful views of sunrise over the Caribbean sea. Great attention to detail has been paid throughout the villa in order to make it a peaceful getaway. The decor is cool and calming and there are original artworks and fine linens to enhance your stay. Its your perfect Island retreat.


The location is somewhat remote, yet you are only minutes from the amenities of Garrafon Park, fine dining at superior restaurants or the luxuries of the Casa De Los Suenos Spa and there is a new restaurant across the street.

Casa De Mariposas is a true tropical getaway that can be all yours to enjoy with those you want to share it with.
Full kitchen with oven and stove, fridge freezer, microwave, coffee machine, blender, toaster, Calfalon cookware and crockery and cutlery for six.

Pool, Air conditioning.

A flat screen television, DVD player, DVD library, WIFI Internet.

Fine linens, all towels provided, weekly maid service (additional on request - additional cost), - soaps, towels and tissue in all bathrooms.

Casa de Mariposas has an English speaking agent on the island to handle any requests.

Within easy reach of Casa de Mariposas are fine snorkeling opportunities, the activities of Garrafon Park, scenic walks to the Mayan ruins and along the Caribbean coast.

There are several scuba dive centres on the island with daily trips to Manchones Reef, the Cave of the Sleeping Sharks and Cross of the Bay.

Bicycles are readily available to rent and are a great way to tour the island. For the less energetic the common form of transport is the golf cart - these are great fun and can be rented for $50 a day.
Area: Casa de Mariposas is located at the scenic south end of Isla Mujeres, a gem of an island in the Caribbean sea just a few miles by ferry from Cancun and the Yucatan mainland.

Originally a sacred site to the worship of the fertility Goddess Ixchel, there are still temple remains close to the villa.

Getting to Isla is easy with a fast ferry to the mainland and various transfer options from Cancun airport.

The beaches of Isla have two different characters. The North and West beaches are shallow with white coral sand and very safe for bathing. The eastern coastline is more rugged with curling Caribbean swells and are ideal for walking and shelling.

Isla is known for it's laid back approach to life. Visitors to the island are independent and individual and making new friends is one of the joys of the island.

spectacular sunrises

This was a beautiful property with fabulous rooftop sunrises. It's on a dirt road which means it's super quiet most of the time. The bar across the street has very loud live music 6 days a week. Most days we liked the music so it worked out ok. And it's only from about noon-8pm. The pool area is beautiful and the layout of the house is unique. Plenty of different spaces to hang out. And Alfonso the property manager was amazing. He was available for whatever we needed and even lined up a 5am taxi to get us to the first ferry off the island on our last day of the trip.

Fantastic Property

This was our second stay at Casa Mariposas. It is such a perfect house for our family. We love the location away from the bustle of the north end. Pool is the best. And the rooftop has amazing views all around! Very much recommended.

Perfect spot

we just spent a week at this csas and it was perfect. This huuse has a great pool and lovely plants an d liunge space, the kitchen has enough items for cooking. Lots of windows with screens let in the vrèeze but keep mosquitoes out. It has comfortable veds and everything was clean. Communication with the manager was easy. We loved the location.. you are two steps from either sea lots of good walkong opportunities. Our neighbours we very quiet an d as a result it was silent at night. No roosters even. The dining patio did get very hot i the afternoon and we thought it might be good to havena little indoor table as well (there's one on the rooftop but usually very windy there). The only warning isnthe music..you are right across from a restaurant that plays live music from12 to 8. However, maybe cause I'm gen x, i loved the music and it was a fun part i loved forward too. Had it veen musicmi didn't like it could have affected my trip. Overall, fantastic stay. Lovemthe family of iguanas that live there!

Fantastic Little House!

We travelled here with 3 ladies and 2 little girls and this house was perfect for us. Very secluded and quiet. A/Cs worked amazing, beds were super comfortable and the views from the patios were great. The girls loved the pool and iguanas. I highly recommend this spot for a small group.

Much need break

We had a wonderful time at the villa. The location was great for us as we love the south side of the island. It was the easiest check in we have had on island. The villa is just behind El Burrcho Burro which has live music every day, we enjoyed it as we used the pool area every day. The house was spotless, beds were great and someone cleaned the pool several times while we were there. We also got fresh towels. We will be back.

This home is off the beaten path but worth the trip. The privacy is amazing. The home is well taken care of and was clean. The pool was awesome. Finally, despite the off the beaten path location is was just a short golf cart ride (and even walk) to many great local bars and restaurants.

Great property near Punta Sur! The host welcomed us shortly after our arrival and was able to answer all of our questions about the local area. Our golf cart was waiting for us at the house. The pool was incredible and we cooked a few meals in the well equipped kitchen. Can't wait to come back to casa mariposa!

SIMPLY AMAZING

I cannot say enough about the beauty of the home. How large it is and the ability to enjoy all floors. We went as a family of 5 and everything was setup perfectly for my family. What made this trip 100x better was the staff managing the home so responsive, thoughtful and out right made us feel extremely welcomed. I would definitely be coming back to Casa Mariposa!

Fantastic Villa for Family Vacation!

Casa Mariposa was all that we wanted and so much more. For us and our kids to have our own spaces made the vacation that much better. Air conditioning in the bedrooms and kitchen were a welcomed relief during a hot summer in Mexico. The rooftop is divine with the ocean views and breeze. The kitchen is small but still sufficient for us preparing a few meals. Alfonso, the Property Manager, was very receptive and attentive to any and all questions that we had. The private pool was 100% worth it! Rancho Capricio is within walking distance and most definitely has the "best tacos on the island". We also loved the location, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the main road and on the complete opposite end of the "toursit" district of the North Beach. Would highly recommend Casa Mariposa!!

Amazing time!

Property is as described, only better! Location was great and easy to get to. Pool was a bit cool, but that is to expected when there is some rain. But the pool was cleaned a couple of times while we were there, big plus for that. Roof top decks were our favorite for sunrises and sunsets, since you can see both sides of the island from there. Alfonso, the property manager, gets a huge shout out. He is simply amazing, he answered all of our questions in a very timely manner. Great place to stay, we will be looking here again for our next trip to the island.

Nice house. We had a few issues the first day with the power going out. However, the property manager was very responsive and helpful. The house is not really near very much, so you definitely need a golf cart. Owners were also very responsive.

4 Adults and 2 children, age 5 and 1 stayed at this home. Property manager was very helpful. We were able to rent a crib and high chair for the whole week at a very reasonable price. House is very clean and well kept with all the necessities needed. AC's worked grate. Kids enjoyed watching Netflix in the evenings. Enjoyed staying on the quieter side of town and recommend it for a family with children.

Isla Mejures vacation

Overall an excellent experience. Lots of space and several outdoor sitting areas to choose from. The pool is excellent and very private. The view from the roof is fantastic and the house has everything you need. Alfonso, the property manager, is very helpful and will answer questions within minutes. The only thing, which is very small, was the maintenance crew did come in to clean the pool one morning at 7 AM. They did not bother me but it would have been nice to know before hand. Again, a non issue. definitely a ten out of ten and I highly recommend this property. I would definitely return. Thank you for an excellent vacation!

What a Perfect Vacation

This was our first time staying in Casa Mariposa and we loved it. It was pretty far south down the island but with a golf cart, it still felt very accessible to places. We loved the house - it was comfortable for me and my husband and our two children (8 and 6). The pool was a family favorite! The owner was great at communicating and the house was clean and tidy. Kitchen is small but it functions fine and we ate many meals at home. We loved sitting on the porch to eat our meals and ending our days watching Netflix in the living room with the ac. A previous review had mentioned the bar across the street playing loud music all day. We actually really enjoyed hearing it! It definitely didn't take away from our relaxation. I wish I was still on Isla. Such a great trip!

Private oasis

Always a beautiful experience. We love it here as a haven to escape the hustle and bustle of the north side of the island. Maybe just a few suggestions though, for whatever they’re worth. We chose this place again and again for its beauty, privacy, views, private pool, etc. We spend quite a bit of time there eating our meals and relaxing. A few updated items would go a long way. A new coffee maker (not fancy, just new). A better grill to cook outside (propane perhaps). We cooked burgers and chicken and it took a lot to keep the fire lit. And possibly a new microwave. It was hit or miss whether it would warm things up or not. Again, we LOVE this place and definitely plan to return. But being able to cook and eat there is a big reason why we rent a house. Thank you so much for another beautiful vacation!

Loved our visit in Isla Mujeres

Loved the house, the pool, the colors, the Iguana we named Cedro and of course watching the sunsets from the upper deck. From check in to check out everything was great. Julian had our golf cart ready for us on the first day, he checked the gas every morning for us so we didn't have to worry about filling up. The golf cart was our favorite thing to do, highly recommend renting one. My only recommendation is, I wish the washer and dryer were available for use. However the towels and sheets smelt amazing. You can tell the property is very taken care of....We loved it.

Amazing property!

Thank you for allowing us to rent your beautiful home! We thoroughly enjoyed our time spent on the island. The house was as perfect as we could have hoped for. House was very clean and comfortable. My husband and our two daughters had a great time spending the afternoons around the beautiful pool after enjoying our adventures around the island. The recommended golf cart rental through Julian was also great. Julian was very kind and checked in with me often and arranged our taxi back to the ferry at the end of our stay. Communication with owners were quick and easy. She answered any questions I had and was very accommodating in making adjustments needed. Can't wait to visit again. Will definitely keep this property on my list!
