Ixchel was absolutely perfect- my boyfriend was looking for a comfortable, clean, resort with amenities, while I was looking for something a little more rustic and authentic (NOT Cancun!!). This fabulous hotel allowed us to combine our interests! The room (just a normal double occupancy room) was comfortable and clean. The view wasn't exceptional, but we didn't spend much time... more

Stayed in Penthouse #709 on a 3 day trip from Cancun, We loved it so much that we didnt want to go back to Cancun...So we booked another night in the hotel. The penthouse was just perfect with a view to die for, the best on the Island. The penthouse has everything you need plus more to enjoy a fantastic... more

This hotel is just amazing for the price. We stayed here for 3 nights (beginning of november) and when we arrived, we were suprised to see how big the rooms were! More like a small one bedroom apartment with a beautiful ocean and palm tree view. Just a very short walk down to some good restuarants and shopping. Lots of... more

The rooms at this hotel are beautiful. We were on the 5th floor oceanfront with a huge balcony and gorgeous view but I would never stay here again. The beach was extremely crowded and very noisy, music blaring from the bar constantly. My husband and I actually left this beach each day and paid $5.00 per day to use beachfront... more

Our penthouse deck overlooked the beautiful azur water, white sandy beaches, and peaceful little village on three sides! WOW is all we could say - the amenities were warm and welcoming, the service great, and the location and view FABULOUS. We are counting the days to go back! This property was building 2, penthouse #709...and I would not even THINK... more

Penthouse condo is the best place to enjoy a great patio with a spectacular view. Everything is new and the bed was very comfy. Great service by the friendly management. Some problems with the air conditioning, but a service man quickly rectified the situation. You might want to bring your own coffee. Had trouble finding any for sale in the... more

ixchel is definitely a bargain for the money but if i had to split hairs i would say the penthouse jacuzzi did not operate properly (more like an outdoor bathtub) and the AC would not stop running at any temp setting (e.g., the thermostat would read 60 degrees even if i set it to 76). that said, the beach view... more

We stayed at Ixchel Condo #406 (VRBO # 138047) Oct 3-10. The trip was nothing short of wonderful. Rod was wonderful and makes sure that you have a great time. His tips for the island were very helpful. The condo was wonderfully furnished and has everything you need for a dream vacation. The beach is the best on the island... more

My husband and I stayed with over 50 of our closest family members and friends at the ixchel condo's/hotel for our wedding weekend in June. The hotel is located on a beautiful stretch of white sand beach and only a 5 minute walk from town. Almost the entire Ixchel hotel staff is warm, courteous, friendly and will go above and... more
