Hacienda Mundaca, Isla Mujeres

A really cool place to check out! It is unfortunately, very neglected. Also, make sure to take bug spray! I got eaten alive by mosquitoes. You'll see tons of iguanas. It's either $3 USD were $30 MXD. Well worth the few dollars if it helps to maintain or improve the place. Oh ya, the locals told me it doubled is a zoo or something at one point as well. Hence, the structure with bars.

This is a clean, simple and beautiful hotel. My room has a small kitchen, a comfortable bed and good water pressure. Nothing fancy but it's a functional space that's affordable. The people who live here are very kind and helpful. I like it here because it's a little community and a glimpse of the real Isla Mujeres.

This is a tourist trap. The park was empty. A woman guarded the front to collect a small fee. One you were inside there was a bunch of iguanas that took over the place. The wildlife and vegetation has grown in and taken over what looks like the buildings and displays within the park. There's a bunch of bugs, so prepare to be eaten alive bug spray or not. Don't waste your time visiting this place. There is much more to see on the island.

This place is magical for me. It saddenes me to see how poorly mantained it continues to be, now that I have returned. however, this used to be the home of a retired pirate, and he used to own 40 % of the island. Can you imagine? So much history! Worth supporting.

Historic sites hidden down wandering paths. Chances for wildlife and great photos.
