The Palapa:
It is an outside living room and the real heart of the house. Here you can read, talk, relax

villa rental amenities

The house site is 45 minutes drive from Tulum Pueblo depending of the road status ; just entered the Pueblo turn right towards Boca Paila, then left following Sian Kaan UNESCO biosphere reserve  indications. 

The beaten earth road can sometimes be uneven, depending on the rains and the fixing  a jeep is strongly recommended. 

The first time it really seems a long trip, but you can enjoy the sorrounding view (actually it is only 25 kilometer far from the Pueblo). After the Boca Paila bridge (just where the sea gets in shaping the lagoon) try making a stop and watch on the right: it is easy to see crocodiles. And if pelicans sometimes block your passage, dont worry: just hoot, and  they  let you pass through.
After 4.5 kilometers you will  find the elefante volador.

Elefante Volador

Review submitted: July 22, 2011   Date of arrival: July 9, 2011

We returned home from our stay at Elefante. I want to thank you for the lovely home you created in Mexico. I've always day dreamed of having a home in Mexico, and I am glad that you have had that dream come alive for you.

We enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable. I love the way you decorated and liked the personal touches like mexican glassware, games, photographs, books.

The kitchen was well-equipped with lots of pots and pans. I was so glad you had a lime squeezer there. I consider that a necessity. The dogs are great! They were always by my side when I decided to go for a walk on the beach, and are very loving.

Lots of turtles laid their eggs, but I did not get to see one this time. There were at least 8 nests the week up to the full moon.

Thanks again .

The pictures on the web don't quite do it justice. Elefante Volador is a beautiful and relaxing place to vacation. The palapa is such an asset. It gets you outside to enjoy the sound of the waves and wind. We did have some wind while we were there, which made the water pretty choppy right in front of the house, but just a mile or so back toward Tulum is a more sheltered cove we snorkeled in. The roof-top deck is a wonderful place to be, and the bedrooms are all beautiful and comfortable. Conch-shell shower-heads are just one of the thoughtful and asthetic touches around the house. The drive along the road is a bit long and bumpy, but it didn't keep us from making trips to the ruins or to scuba dive cenotes. It's actually nice to have something that keeps you nearer to the house , as it makes the vacation that much more mellow. We used the San Fransisco market in Tulum for groceries, which was fine for all we needed. It's a wonderful house with a palapa that sets it apart from other rentals we found. Enjoy it.

Recommended for: adventure seekers, families with teenagers, sight seeing
