About the host
Hosted by Ross and Julie Grundyson

We fell in love with Mexico 25 years ago and have been vacationing here ever since with the dream of some day being able to have our own special place here on the beach. Last winter we were able to make the dream come true when we became the new owners of Casona Palms. We look forward to sharing this magical and peaceful place with you!
Why they chose this property
The little town of Mahahual is quiet and peaceful when there are no cruise ships at port and becomes lively and buzzing with activity when the cruisers arrive so you can take your pick on your type of day you want to experience there. It is a slower pace and not the hectic scene of the northern tourist areas. Great beachside restaurants, little shops, beach clubs, snorkeling and diving excursions and fishing are all available.
What makes this property unique
We knew the minute we drove up to Casona Palms that this place was magical! As you drive down the sandy beach road with views of the ocean with houses scattered here and there, you know this is going to be a special trip. There are spectacular ocean views from every room and the sound of the palm trees and birds singing add to the calm and peaceful setting. The architecture of the home is wonderful and the open floorplan is perfect for an intimate vacation or a vacation with your friends and family. The beach is filled with palms trees, perfect for relaxing in a hammock with a good book or for you sunseekers, there are plenty of loungers and a sunbed for soaking up the Mexico sun. Paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing and snorkeling off the reef just in front of our villa are the perfect way to explore. The previous owner took meticulous care and had 10/10 reviews and we will continue his level of service along with with some really great improvements to make your stay even more special!
