A Hidden Gem
Our 5 day stay was much too short! Everything about Vida Chelem was fantastic; from the clean, beautifully landscaped courtyard and cool inviting pool, to the spacious apartment with every amenity. And of course, the ocean. Gorgeous turquoise waters just outside your door, with constant waves lulling you to sleep either in a hammock or the large comfy bed. The town is friendly and inviting but most of all our host Arturo was amazing! From the moment we arrived he made us feel right at home. He drove us around town, took us to local coffee shops (SO delicious!!), and really got to know us as people. We think of him as our newest friend. He even helped us get our Covid 19 tests that we needed to reenter Canada, and when we were standing at the airport check in still with no results, Arturo came through by phoning the facility for us and having them text our negative results over. Bless his heart. He didn't have to do any of those things, and he certainly didn't want any recompense for anything. Nor would he accept anything but thanks. He has restored my faith in humanity. Thanks Arturo and Vida Chelem for a truly great holiday.
