Casa Godi

This was my second time staying at Casa Godi, and we had a wonderful time yet again. Lucia, the property manager, was incredibly responsive throughout our trip - from checking that we arrived safely to meeting us at the house to make sure we had everything we needed. If we had questions throughout the trip, her responses were immediate. Our chef, Areli, was lovely, and her food was incredible. Her breakfasts and dinners were a highlight of the trip. The house was immaculate and was kept so throughout our trip. I would note that Casa Godi is quite remote (~20 minutes from downtown Tulum, 45 minutes to the nearest grocery store), and getting into town in the evening when we didn't want to drive our rental cars was a bit tricky. Lucia set us up with a cab service that would pick us up at a stated time and be on stand by to drive us home whenever we needed for ~ USD 60 each way. It felt fairly steep, but at least it was reliable and felt safe. Most cabs/shuttles refuse to take you beyond the Tulum border and into the Biosphere Reserve where Casa Godi is located, or at least give you a hard time about it. It was also amazing having our own private beach. The first time I went to Tulum, the beaches were all white sand and blue waters, but it appeared that recent storms had pulled up quite a bit of seaweed, and the beaches were covered with seaweed and, sadly, a bit of garbage. The staff did their best to clear our beach at Casa Godi, but it wasn't quite what we expected. Hopefully, nature will run its course, and the beaches will be back to their clean, white sand beauty soon! Overall, we had a wonderful time and definitely hoped to return to Casa Godi again.

The master bedroom in casa godi Is gorgeous! The Terrace is also beautiful. If sharing the house with another family, make sure you know that there is 1 master and the rest of the rooms are not nearly as special.
