Just what the doctor ordered - relaxation. Heres just one example of a way to relax at Sirena's.

This was my first time traveling to the Yucutan Penninsula and I wanted an experience away from the resorts and all inclusives. I found Posada Sirena on Tripadvisor and e-mailed her directly. Sirena was so fast in responding and communication in setting up our trip was great.
We stayed in Punta Allen at Posada Sirena's for 7 nights (I wish it could have been 7 months!). Sirena set us up in the Casa Grande, a cute swiss family robinson style house with plenty of room for our little family of 3. There was a kitchen so we could prepare our own meals and plenty of space to really spread out. Even after a couple of brief rainshowers our little house stayed nice and dry.
Sirena is a truly magical person and a wonderful soul! I loved just hanging out in her garden reading about her life adventures and then talking with her about it all. Sirena is truly a local and so helpful in setting up any kind of tour or justing pointing out the "local spots" to go on your own.
We felt so safe and secure and definitely relaxed the whole time and I know I would not have had any better of an experience anywhere else. getting to meet the other visitors and socializing in her garden was great (hi John and Paolo) Simply put going to Posada Sirena is going home.

With numerous trips around the Yucatan, Three to Punta Allen, and my second stay with Sirena, I would not trade the experience for anything.

Sirena has made lemonade out of lemons subsequent to last August' hurricane. Her tropical garden area is my outdoor home there, a place for visitors to gather, socialize and make plans.

Sirena bounced back from the hurricane better than even before.

It is truely Sirena's personality and graciousness that helps make me so happy to have found this little remnant of pleasure. Sirena will do anything to accomodate your adventuring around the Punta Allen area. DO NOT MISS THIS VISIT.

We stayed in the Casa Grande with a kitchen and more than enough room for our family of 4. Traveling with kids can be stressful, so showing up at Sirena's was the best thing we could have done! We felt completely welcome, cared for, all our needs attended to, and Sirena somehow knew just what would put the frosting on the cake for our vacation. She arranged for our son to meet some of the kids in the village and they had a great time playing together. She arranged a wonderful boat tour when we were ready, taking special care to get a boat with an awning so our baby would have shade, and the skipper even held our baby while we went snorkeling! Almost as soon as we arrived Sirena explained where everything in the town was so that we would feel at home and know where to go to get the things we needed. Another thing we loved was getting to know this amazing woman through her book of incredible adventures, shipwrecks, Amazon treck, and spiritual journey to where she finally landed in Punta Allen! (There is one in each accomodation) The thing we had the hardest time with was allowing ourselves to relax enough and trust enough to let her care for us! We were planning to spend only 5 nights in Punta Allen, and ended up staying twice as long. It took us the first 5 days just to get relaxed, the next 5 days were truely fabulous!
If you are expecting a 5 star accomodation, find a 5 star hotel.
If you want a low key, home grown, loving atmosphere in a sleepy Mayan village by the sea, Posada Sirena is the place to be.
