Casa Baloo

Casa Baloo is truly the definition of “home away from home” and a hidden gem in El Cuyo. From the second we arrived, the wonderful staff and owners, Lucy and Francisco, welcomed us as if we were family and helped us settle in. The hotel itself is an oasis, with beautiful amenities that are maintained so well they look brand new. The pool is a perfect way to relax and cool off after a hot day under the Yucatan sun; the rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean; and our favorite part, the rooftop, was the perfect spot for sunrises and sunsets, having a drink and even doing yoga (which was so kindly organized for us by Lucy and served as a wonderful way to wake up and get moving). It is an easy 5 min walk to the beach and the town is super safe to go out for dinner or a walk at any time of the night. There are great restaurants in town, from sophisticated chef owned places & wine bars to authentic mexican fare. However the best food we had at the Baloo restaurant which is a small, cozy, open air place under palm trees right next to the hotel. Breakfast and lunches are crafted by Lucy who has tremendous passion for food, great technique and used fresh ingredients. My tip: chilaquiles ! And that is why beyond the spaces and amenities, the attention to detail and genuine care and effort put in by the team is what really made this stay memorable. Can't wait to be back !

El lugar es hermoso rodeado plantas naturales y palmeras. Es un negocio manejado por la familia y su servicio y hospitalidad es inigualable.

Casa Baloo was a little hard to find but it was worth it. Very new room with comfortable bed and pillows. We almost left without breakfast, but the young staff member walked us down the restaurant just a very short walk away
