Activities and Attractions

painted tile accents, and architectural designs of Old Colonial  
Mexico. All new electrical, plumbing, paint, rennovated stairway to  
3rd floor balcony and the Terrace there, New bathrooms and completely  
New kitchen. The home sits less than a half a block from the beach  
access and within a 15 minute walk to the downtown beachfront with a  
variety of open-air restaurants overlooking the gulf. On the third  
floor terrace in the house you experience a spectacular view of the  
Sea, Progreso's longest pier in the world, and glorious sunsets. 
 
 
 
The Neighborhood:  
 
Our house is located about one mile to the East of downtown. The East  
side is preferable to the West due to the quiet beach road with a  
view of the Gulf when walking to and from town. If you like walking,  
you can accomplish most of your errands, find good restaurants, etc.  
Our properties location is preferable to most of the beach houses in  
Chixulub (the next closest town to Progreso), as most of the houses  
there are apart from the neighborhoods, and a car is required to do  
almost anything. 
Within just a block or two our neighborhood has a Laundromat, corner  
store, beer mart, an Internet Café, a late night Pizza and Taco  
restaurant, and a bed and breakfast that offers outdoor patio  
breakfasts. Purified water is also available in 10 Gallon bottles  
from the neighbor next door. These fit into our Water Dispenser.  
Cost:about $3.00 U.S. per 10 gal. 
 
In Progreso you will find: great restaurants, many of them seaside, a  
large supermarket and an outdoor market with local produce, all  
within a short walk from the house. Other services include hospitals  
and pharmacies, a police station, currency exchange offices,  
telegraph and post offices, a bus station, and of course plenty of  
taxis to help you get around. Buses run direct to Merida every 15  
minutes. 
  
About Progreso: 
If you want a place like Cancun, full of American tourists, American  
restaurants and just like the USA, Progreso is not it. (Although in  
Merida, 30 minutes away from Progreso, you can find American food,  
Home Depot etc. if needed.) If you want an experience of authentic  
Mexican culture amidst friendly locals, Progreso is the place. Mostly  
Spanish is spoken here and if you want to learn, it is a great place  
to do it. 
 
When traveling to Progreso, you can go ahead and throw out any pre- 
conceived notions of the flashy, busied, touristy presence of most  
resort towns in Mexico. You will be pleasantly surprised to find that  
you are immersed in a community of friendly, helpful, and generally  
more serene locals. You will almost immediately notice a feeling of  
being welcome and safe amongst the local people. This is true of most  
of the Yucatan, as its roots are founded by the legacy of the Mayan  
culture. For day trips there are many options: Exotic ruins and  
locales, Cave exploration, Flamingo nesting, trips to Historic Merida  
and many more, offering an almost limitless variety of activities for  
the adventurous traveler.
