About this property
Beachfront palapa cottage with heated pool , sunsets and tropical gardens
Cottage Sam is a private beachfront Palapa styled cottage with 22' ceilings just steps from the beach and the soothing salt water heated pool. Once inside the gated and walled enchanted Villa Makax, you’ll be in a world of your own choosing.
Located on the west side of Isla Mujeres overlooking the turquoise waters of the Cancun Bay beautiful views of sunsets and the twinkling lights of Cancun in the distance. There are restaurants and beach clubs within walking distance and the Turtle preserve is a short walk south down our beach. Our guests can be picked up for their Isla Mujeres water tours at our private dock on the laguna side.
Villa Makax's four cottages are very cozy and tastefully decorated. Each cottage has a king sized bed, seating area, smart TV, fully equipped kitchenette, refrigerator, full bathroom with shower, air conditioning and ceiling fans. Imagine relaxing on your private sea-side patio while listening to and watching the waves, just sitting here will take your breath away.

About the host
Hosted by Grupo Makax SA de CV
We fell in love with Isla in 1972, purchased our property in 1975. Our home, Villa Makax, was an unfinished partially built building. We arrived here when there was no Cancun airport.Steve and Lindell, the owners of Villa Makax are from Wrightsville Beach, NC. They arrived here in 1972, and fell in love with Isla Mujeres. In 1975 they purchased an unfinished house on Sac Bajo and over the last 45 years, their love for Mexico and particularly Isla, is shown through the manner in which they carved out this piece of paradise.
Every stone, every block, every tile was placed with care and love for the land. As pioneers of the North American community on the island, they have experienced and participated in the tremendous growth and prosperity of the community. The depth of their combined love for Mexico and Isla Mujeres is reflected in all corners and crevices of the cottages.
Steve and Lindell are best known on Isla for their dedicated work with the challenged children of the island. Commonly known as The Little Yellow School House, Amor a la Niñez (Love of the childhood) was established in 1998 by local women in a small 6 by 8 foot classroom. The school is supported by donations only, there is no cost to the families.
