Beach-front house in Sisal, Yucatan. Sisal is a typical fishing
village, is a nice place to escape from the city and relax. Located
55km from Merida, 1hr driving.
The house has 1 bedroom with 2 double beds, kitchen and living room with view to the beach, 1 bathroom. Located 9 blocks from downtown which is 15 min walking, on the west side of town.
Beach in Sisal is wide, there are about 110yards of sandy beach between the cottage and the sea.
There is regular bus service between Sisal and Merida. A few canadians have discovered Sisal and are staying over here during winter.
English is an exotic language here, so dont expect anyone speak
such language, be ready to practice your spanish or maya language. Sisal was the main port of Yucatan long time ago, it was attacked by pirates. Original canyons that were used to protect town from those pirates are now decorating the main square. Sisal vegetal fiber was named that way because it was
marked as "Sisal Customs", Sisal was the port of exporting the fiber.
Atmosphere in Sisal is the one of a fishing village, people are friendly and always in good mood, in spite that locals are low income they are always smiling. There is no crime in town.
Sisal has its own life, people who live over here are happy to do so, more and more non locals are comming over to stay because its easy to feel comfortable and become part of the landscape.
Main economic activity in town is fishing, there are several restaurants with good seafood. Sisal receives lots of tourists in summer time, particulary august and mainly from Merida. There are a couple of very old buildings, one is the former customs that was rebuilt recently, its been used as a handcrafts market in summer. An interesting building is the one where the lighthouse is, its a
small fortress built to resist attacks from pirates, its the only military arquitecture building in Yucatan state.
