Casitas Kinsol Guest House

Casitas Kinsol is sooo beautiful and peaceful - my Mom and I had the greatest time :) Christine and Allan, along with their lovely doggies were the best hosts. Will surely recommend it to everyone planning to go to Cancun, and of course, we´ll be back! :D

What a fun, bohemian place. So much character! We really enjoyed visiting with Christine and Alan. And of course the pups!! Casitas Kinsol is a short taxi ride from anywhere in Puerto Morelos but not it the "touristy" part of town, so if you want a quiet place to stay, this is great. Just don't go on a festival weekend like we did where the neighbors partied from 12-4 am!!

Casitas Kinsol is a real gem. Christine was away while we were there but Alain was extremely friendly and helpful We booked to stay 3 nights and extended it to 6. The area is amazing and an oasis compared to Playa del Carmen or Cancun. I would happily stay here again and definitely recommend it, but not too much because both Puerto Morelos and Casitas Kinsol are the type of places you want to keep to yourself :)

It is a real nice place here, a oasis, and with all the different and lovely decorated rooms, you have created a little jewel box! Thank you very much for your hospitality and for always having time for us and all our questions we had. Carry on like this! The next time in this area, we will stay again! Muchas Gracias

hosts were very friendly and accommodating. place was exactly what we were expecting - very cozy and relaxing atmosphere. such a great experience to live with locals. the value that you receive for the money that you pay is incredible. thank you so much for having us! would definitely recommend this place to friends and family and would stay again. thank you for having us!

If I return to the yucatan I will definetly stay there again. I really like how the casitas are decorated but most of all how much help Alain was in helping us find neat things to see & do.

Our time spent at Casitas Kinsol was lovely. The hosts (and their dogs!) made us feel quite welcome--Alain was especially helpful with his advice on how to get around the area and which tasty local restaurants to eat at. The room was well-appointed and smartly decorated. Puerto Morelos is a charming small Mexican town. The locals were friendly and we did not feel uncomfortable anywhere. We spent an afternoon in Playa del Carmen and the hordes of tourists, pushy salespeople and blatant commercialization made us grateful that PM was our home base. I would recommend Casitas Kinsol to anyone wanting to spend their vacation relaxing and enjoying a more authentic Mexican experience.

we loved this place!!!!!!! every detail about the room and the casitas kinsol is special and makes you feel peaceful. waking up with the bird songs is so nice. we love the dogs too! Christine and Alan are great hosts! tati and nena too (cute dogs!)

Casitas Kinsol is a lovely place, full of character and carefully managed by Christine and Alain. It is a pleasant surprise between Cancun and Playa and a great alternative to the area's omnipresent all inclusive resorts. Great for a more local experience!

A couple of amazing people run place, based in a down home neighborhood. There is some great snorkeling within a 15 minute walk, but on the way you can pick up some fresh tacos, amazing juice, and pineapple/chili ice cream served by the locals. The place itself is super laid back. A great place to lay in a hammock and listen to geckos.

We enjoyed our stay at Casitas Kinsol. My one complaint is that our room was really close to the road and that was noisy and smelled like fumes at times. It's a beautiful place overall though and we really enjoyed the kitchen facility and common areas. Had trouble with our shower at first but the owner fixed it pretty quickly.

Such a great little place. I only got to stay one night, but Christine and Alain were very friendly and gave us a great tip for dinner at a little seafood place down the street that was probably the best meal during my entire stay, and one of the least expensive. The room was interesting, comfortable and quite large. Puerto Morelos was a taste of a more authentic Mexico that I didn' t get after heading on to Playa del Carmen and i'm glad that I got the chance to see it.

Christine and her family were lovely to us. The place was charming and the write up and photos detailed the experience to a tee! Highly recommended.

Christine and Alain are great hosts, very helpful with navigating the town and Yucatan. I stayed in room number which is as lovely as the photos. Day or night the room was cool and quiet. Met some great fellow travelers. Highly recommended. Please note that the casita is a cab ride from the beach.

Awesome! Probably the BEST room I`ve ever stayed at. The beach is Pto. Morelos is beautiful and so many exciting things to do around. Allan, Christine and their doggies - the best hosts! Gracias por una Navidad diferente y hermosa! :D

One (out of atleast 8) places we stayed while in Mexico and the best (a tie with Aerolito in Tulum!) Arrived to Cancun on a late eve flight and this easy to find house just 20-25 mins drive from airport was one of the most charming and well decorated places in Mexico. The treehouse style bungalow and wooden cabins among the foliage of the courtyard reminded me much of Southeast Asia and my many travel to Thailand. I felt very at home and it was wonderful waking up to the sound of birds and geikos. The room was wonderful and the hosts went abopve and beyond in information for our travel on the road and food options. The only cons: That we didn't stay longer. Only booked for one night - so we could start a 15 day road trip threw Mexico and it would have been nice to experience more of Puerto Morelos, its excellent tacos, and chill vibe. Coming from New York, i landed running to the next sites realizing in the end it was one of the best places to stay longer from the beginning to set a wonderful tone for the perfect vacation. The only other con is there was no milk for coffee ;) Most other Airbnbs include some form or breakfast or good coffee, but these were minimal. Tea and water are easiest to have. So on first arrival we just went around the corner for such needs in the am:)

Our experience at Casitas Kinsol was great. The place is very tasteful and comfortable. It is easy to get to the center square of Puerto Morales and it also is very close to small business owned by local families. Out host, Alain, was always ready to answer any questions and had great suggestions of things to do in the area. We also really appreciated his effort to let us know how to support local community. We'll definitely come back if we are in the area.

Christine and her husband were wonderful hosts they were helpful giving out tips in the quintana roo area (or anywhere else around the casita you want to explore) the guest house is very beautiful and large so you can have several people there, we got a bit of noise in the morning which wasnt much of a problem but maybe those with a delicate ear should know it is right on the big avenue in the town where much activity goes on. Other than that I highly recommend this alternative space if you are travelling to the yucatan peninsula.

was at the end of a long drive through the yucatan and was a real gem of a place that i wish i had booked for a few more days. magical

a lovely surprise. its what makes traveling the drug of choice. i will come back

I stayed twice in Casitas Kinsol for a short stay. Christine is a very friendly host, just as Alain, with who she runs the guesthouse. They both are nice to talk to about a lot of things! They also have plenty of ideas how to make the most of your stay. I have great memories of them and Casitas Kinsol :)

I really enjoyed my stay with Christine and Alaine. They were wonderful hosts and full of ideas/information to make our visit to the Yucatan the best. I will definitely stay with them again when I return again to the Yucatan. Puerto Morelos is much more laid back than Cancun or Playa de Carmen....my kind of place.
