Mexico Trip 2012 - Casa del Corazon
For our Yucatan Mexico trip in November 2012, we stayed on Soliman Bay, along what is known as the "Riviera Maya", at Casa del Corazon ("house of heart") in their large, cosy, and fully equipped "bungalow 1".
The jaguar eating a heart is depicted in a stone carving at Chichén Itzá, and reproduced in art throughout the area. It is thought to be a Maya symbol of re-birth and power.
The cloth in the right corner hides a television and dvd player which can be used to be entertained from a library of dvds.
The main downstairs bedroom has a kingsize bed, desk, closet and dresser area, and a pass-code safe for keeping valuables.
The curved wall within the bathroom is the shower: a step in from either side, tile, open shower that was really nice to use. It's a spacious and light full bathroom.
Up the interior stairs is a loft with two twin beds.
The kitchen had everything we could have needed for any length of stay.
A tile patio behind the bungalow had chairs for lounging and outside dining. It was the perfect place for breakfast each morning.
Up the outside spiral stairs is a second bedroom with a queen-size bed and beautiful domed brick ceiling, as well as a second bathroom.
