Casa Cenote***

Casa Cenote is a beautiful cenote just north of Dreams Tulum and about 10 minutes north of downtown Tulum. It is down a road about 3 km from the main road. We took a collectivo from Tulum to the entrance road for 15 pesos per person. The kids sat on our lap so they were free.

Once out of the collectivo, we walked down the dirt road towards the cenote. It was a long walk but not terrible. There were some beautiful houses down this way and many of them seemed to be for rent.

The cenote was 20 pesos per person. I think if you are scuba diving it is a little more, around 40 pesos. This cenote is very near the ocean so you can hear all of those beautiful sounds and the water is more salty then some of the other cenotes.

The cenote extends back into the jungle about 200 meters. It was a beautiful swim. The cenote is very deep and crystal clear. Make sure to bring your snorkel masks.

There were many houses in this area that are for rent. It is a very peaceful area, far away from any troubles in the world.

There is a few restaurants in the area as well. We ate at the Casa Cenote restaurant. The food was great and the margarita was perfect. Not served in that crazy tourist fishbowl but in the correct short glass. The restaurant is under a beautiful palapa and is right on the beach.

This is also a hotel with newly renovated rooms. It listed the prices in the restaurant menu and the prices for the rooms were very reasonable. It also stated that the cost of the room included breakfast, snorkel and kayak rental.

This part of the beach is called Tankah Bay. It is beautiful. A car would be very handy here though.
