Ten homes, one island

There’s more than one way to wake up here.

Private homes in Cozumel, held by the same family since 1982.

Find your place

Ten homes. One island. Stay a week or a month.

Coast or town

Some of our homes sit on the water. Others sit in town behind a garden wall, a short walk from the plaza.

Experience Cozumel

The house is only half the trip.

You are not booking a place to sleep. You are staying with a company that lives here: the reef we dive, the taquería we send everyone to, the road that floods after rain. Ask us anything.

Spend the day

The house is one half of the trip. Here is the other.

North Shore

The coast runs clear from the airport up to town, reef visible past the rocks the whole way.

A street near the plaza in downtown Cozumel

Downtown Plaza

The plaza, the market stalls and the cafés under the awnings. Most of a day in town happens here.

Snorkeling in clear water off the Cozumel shore

Snorkeling

Ladder down from the ironshore into clear water. No boat required.

A monument in downtown San Miguel, Cozumel

San Miguel

Beyond the plaza: the malecón, the ferry pier and side streets a few blocks back from the water.

Waves breaking on the rocky shore at Punta Sur

Punta Sur

The wild end of the island: lighthouse, lagoon and open ocean breaking over the rock.

Island Cuisine

Fish tacos, ceviche and family kitchens that have been feeding the island for decades.

Come home

Salt on your skin. Your own front door.

No lobby. No elevator full of strangers. A pool that's only yours, a kitchen with the door open, and the sound of the water where the neighbors would be.

Caballos Del Mar
“It was awesome. Best location and most beautiful water on Cozumel.
Caballos Del Mar →Jason N. · April 2026 · Verified stay
Las Iguanas
“The place has a calmness to it that’s hard to explain, and being so close to the sea changes how you move through the day. You hear the water, feel the breeze, and things slow down naturally.
Las Iguanas →Josh A. · January 2026 · Verified stay
Castillo del Rey
“We got home yesterday and are already talking about when we can go back!
