“Mike will cook for you. And that's a treat!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

We found ourselves in Punta Allen by accident, having driven through the nature reserve from Tulum. On the way, we stopped at the Visitor Centre and enjoyed the lagoon, and stopped at some beaches along the way. It was a very long, slow, and extremely bumpy drive, and we ended up, hot and hungry, unexpectedly in this relatively unattractive little town, at the end of the road as far as you can go. There are places that offer seafood in Punta Allen, but that's not what we wanted. Somehow we discovered the extremely friendly proprietor, Mike, gardening in the back yard, and he offered to make us a salad and steamed vegetables. Fresh, delicious and most welcome! Later, he showed us the rooms he rents out (large, with full bathrooms) and we knew if we ever came back again, that's where we'd stay.

“Great Host”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2011

people found this review helpful

Had a great time staying with Mike who runs the hotel. The food was excellent with lobster, steak and ice cream regularly on the menu. This was a fly fishing trip and Mike was able to arrange some of the best guides in Punta Allen with two grand slams in one week and many shots at Permit. The rooms are comfortable and very clean and the service is always with a smile. We will be back.

“Great food, knowledgeable owner”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

I have known Mike since he was the owner of Sol Caribe. I drove down to PA
from past the bridge to say hi but just as importantly to get a good meal. I'd been eating
mostly fish and wanted one of Mike's famous burgers. But don't get me wrong while
we were eating a local fishermen brought in some fresh caught Pargo (big snapper!)
for the restaurant. although I haven't stayed at Casa (yet) I;ve seen the rooms and
know the level of service and the fact that Mike has been down there over 15 years
so he can connect you with anything you should want to do.

“Clean, Cozy and Colorful”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

In June we were in Punta Allen looking for a destination to send our clients that love to fly fish. Mike, who is the owner of Casa de Ascension is a great cook and very entertaining. The hotel was very colorful, cozy and clean. The bathroom had hot water and was spotless. The upstairs area has a romantic setting.

“Great Accomodations!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 September 2011

Casa de Ascension is clean, comfortable and has a friendly atmosphere. It is a small little town and so is central to everything. Be sure to contact the owner, Mike, before coming as he has information on many options for traveling in either by car or boat. When I come back I think I will try the boat option. While you are there they have information and will help you to set up tours and fishing exhibitions. They also have great food and drinks at their restaurant. A computer is available for your use to stay in touch with home or do research on your next stop. Mike, the owner, is very helpful and kind and made our stay wonderful.
