ENJOY YOUR HOUSE BY THE SEA

Tucked within the wonderfully elegant and gated and Residencias Reef complex, this vacation oasis is literally steps away from the famed white sand and blue waters of the Caribbean, in an area known as San Francisco Beach.

Casa Por El Mar, Residencias Reef 7170, is a magnificent one-bedroom condo that sits just a short stroll away from a private beach, and offers a host of amenities inside and out—including private parking, round-the-clock security, in-room safe, and an intercom system to ensure you have utmost peace of mind throughout your stay.

The condo is beautifully furnished in a contemporary style, utilizing dark woods and a soft color palette. The open-concept design brings the three primary living spaces into view—the gorgeous kitchen, lovely dining room and inviting living area—so that everyone can be part of the conversation.

Your spacious kitchen comes equipped with appliances both big and small, pots and pans, utensils—really, everything you need to prepare your own meals using the freshest local ingredients. And there’s no need to fear the water here—purified drinking water is freshly supplied.

With seating for six at the gorgeous dining room table and even more dining space on the terrace and poolside, you’ll have no trouble serving up your culinary magic in a tasteful setting. In the living room, your hosts have provide comfortable sitting areas, a satellite TV, and a fold-out living room sofa to extend your sleeping options, making Casa Por El Mar the ideal vacation spot for parties of up to four.

Just beyond the floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors awaits your private terrace, which overlooks one of the community’s two freshwater pool and the magnificent white-sand beach. Enjoy a cocktail and drink in the view—there are two comfortable lounge chairs as well as a small table with seating for four.

The master bedroom, which also opens to the terrace, has a king-sized bed, a separate sitting area with a sleeper sofa, and a flat-screen TV with several English-language channels in the lineup. Its attached bath features both a walk-in shower, ample counter space and modern fixtures--there’s even a separate half-bath for guests.

But let’s get back to what you really came to discover—that epic white-sand beach and multi-hued blue waters of the Caribbean. It’s all just a few steps down the charming paved pathway. From here you can snorkel right off the beach or embark on a SCUBA diving adventure—they’ll happily pick you up at the nearby dock. You can do a little body surfing in the warm water and gentle swells that lap the beach or maybe start up a game of Frisbee. Feel adventurous? Take a quick stroll down the beach to discover some fantastic restaurants and bars (some even deliver).

Want more? There is.  As a guest here, you are invited to make full use of the outdoor Jacuzzi, SCUBA and snorkeling gear rinse tank, an outdoor shower, and shady picnic areas beneath palapas and palm trees.

When you’re up for a night out, head to downtown Cozumel, an easy ten- to 15-minute drive away. Stroll along the oceanfront promenade for a bit of shopping or sightseeing. Restaurants, bars and vendors selling everything from homemade tacos to hand-crafted fabrics line the promenade, as well as duty-free stores and nice boutiques.

You can watch the cruise ships dock or the ferry boats come in on the promenade—and if you want to reserve a SCUBA or glass-bottom boat snorkeling tour, you’ll find a provider on virtually every street.

For a remarkable vacation you’ll cherish for a lifetime, choose the oceanfront Casa Por El Mar condo, Reef Residencias 7170.
