Hello Stan and Annie, We are back home. We came back with great souvenirs from our trip. Your Castillo es magnifico! It was like on the pictures. We were a little bit scared at the beginning but we will recommend your place without a doubt. Lucio and Martha were very nice and Licia is beautiful. We cuddle her a lot. We passed a lot of time out of the house ; Progreso,Merida, Uman, San Igniacio, Telchac…we visited. My children appreciate their house, and food more now. We didn’t really understand about paying for the cleaning but Martha said that we had to pay her. So we gave her 50$ us for the week like you asked us but when I came back home I realised that you said that you would deduct it from the security deposit…so now it is already paid. We gave them extra money too and gifts for the baby. Some pictures to come in the next e-mail. Thank you so much, it was a great experience. We are looking to buy a house in Mexico. We visited but nothing as beautiful as yours. Canada. Renters
WE are so happy! 4/17/11 Your place is absolutely wonderful, everything is perfect, and I am in love with George Jr.(haha). We went dancing last night in Progresso with the locals until 2, music was  Cumbia-ish, but they had their own style and taught us! I was clearly the only blue eyed one in the place, and Paul is 6'-4, but they were so friendly. Thank you!!!!! Elizabeth
As junior senior citizens, we have visited Mexico many times over the past 30-odd years, including resort hotels on both coasts and small coastal villages. We've seen the Mexico destinations the travel brochures rave about and the "real Mexico" that budget guidebooks describe. What we were looking for on our most recent trip to Mexico was peace and quiet, without any rumbling trucks, honking horns, or Activities Directors shouting "Volleyball in 5 minutes." And we found it - in spades - in the penthouse at Castillo Nicte Ha, in Chicxulub, Yucatan. The apartment is spacious, comfortable and well appointed. Hosts Stanley and Anie Gardner seem to have thought of just about everything we needed in the kitchen. And it was an easy drive into Progreso, just 9 miles away, to shop in the excellent local supermarket, (San Francisco de Assissi) which helped keep our dining costs down. We also enjoyed the occasional night out in one of Progreso's beach side restaurants. For anyone who prefers "off the beaten path" accommodation, in its most agreeable and relaxing sense, we thoroughly recommend the Castillo Nicte Ha. Thanks to Anie and Stan for their thoughtful hospitality and Marta and Lucio for on-site assistance. Kirk,
