We were delighted to find ourselves at La Selva Mariposa, especially after feeling overwhelmed by the resortiness of Playa del Carmen. Truly a relaxed paradise, we stayed in the new Suite 4, which was a wonderful Valentine's Day treat! Our bedroom, sitting room, patio and waterfall were all perfect. And the open air shower was absolutely lovely -- whether by morning sunshine or moonlight!
The owners, Moe and Lou, were a wealth of travel information and hints, and we were often delighted by their suggestions. From La Selva Mariposa, we took a number of day trips -- to Coba, Chichen Itza, Valladolid -- and spent some time at Tulum's beaches (which were the best of our whole trip!).
We would highly recommend La Selva Mariposa to those who are really looking to get away in a quiet, relaxing environment.
