What does a typical day at Casa Chanty actually look like? Here’s a rough sketch of how our guests tend to spend their time — no two days are the same, but there’s a rhythm.

7:00 AM

Coffee on the terrace. The sun rises over the water; the beach is empty. This is when the property is most magical.

8:30 AM

Breakfast. Most guests either cook in their full kitchen or have our chef prepare something simple. Fresh fruit, eggs, strong coffee.

10:00 AM

Beach. The water is calm, the sand is white. Read, swim, snorkel, do nothing. The reef is close enough to spot from shore.

1:00 PM

Lunch. Walk to one of the small beachside restaurants in the area, or have something light back at the villa. Ceviche, tacos, cold drinks.

3:00 PM

Siesta. Most of our guests are off the beach by 3 — the sun is strong. Air conditioning, a hammock, a book.

5:30 PM

A cenote, a quick snorkel, or a walk down the beach. Some guests head to Playa del Carmen for shopping; others stay put.

7:30 PM

Sunset from the terrace. Cocktails. Chef-prepared dinner on request (a few days’ notice is plenty). Sleep with the windows open and the sound of the sea.
