    Arturo, Yessica, and staff were very kind and welcoming! The house was pleasant and the breakfast felt so homey. Personally, I liked the location because I felt like I was seeing a more local side of Cancun and it was steps from the beach!

    The bubble in the bathroom didn't work but that is just a minor detail :)

    The breakfast was wonderful, simple but great. Thank you for making the table for me to sit outside to have my breakfast. Location was also fine, it's in a gaten area and about 1,5 kilometers from the ferry point. The service was great and so friendly. Made me feel very welcome and looked after.

    the personal service was great! lovely owners. the airline lost our baggage on the way to cancun, which made us a bit dependent on the help of others. we were lucky to have as good hosts as they have here. next to that great desayuno. would definitely recommend!

    Very friendly hosts who went over and beyond to ensure I had a pleasant stay! Location was great just by the beach with some great seafood spots nearby. Have stayed in the hotel zone before but this provides a more "local" less touristic experience

    No restaurants nearby were open after 8:00 PM or early in the morning for coffee, although at other hours there are some within walking distance. They did provide a great breakfast and coffee at the Casa, though!

    The room and private balcony made me feel like I was staying in a luxury hotel. The family was accommodating, helpful, and kind. Just all around great value and the reason I love home stays.

    Casa Lara was an excellent (home) stay for the start of our Mexico trip in Cancún. It is located in the Puerto Juarez neighborhood of the city, which is far from the touristy parts of Zona Hotelera (etc.) and therefore much quieter and relaxed. You can hear the birds singing in the morning from the nearby forest and the nearest beach Playa Blanca is only a 2 minute walk away - so perfect for swimming even before breakfast. Playa Blanca might not be the prettiest beach of Cancún, but it is not at all crowded and much more swimmable compared to others - we really enjoyed it. Speaking of breakfast, our host Arturo prepared a tasty and different breakfast each morning, which we enjoyed having outside the building on the ground-level terrace. This is also a great spot to chat with the other travelers staying here if you like. Arturo and his whole family were very friendly and helpful in any instance and we really felt at home during our 4-night stay. We also enjoyed using the rooftop terrace, but did not use the pool, which is also available. You can reach Downtown Cancún with Cancún's bus station (ca. 20min) or Zona Hotelera (ca. 40min) easily by Colectivos, which stop on the street right next to Playa Blanca constantly. Arturo will kindly tell you about your options and which buses/Colectivos to take. We highly recommend staying at Casa Lara while being in Cancún if you are looking for a relaxed home stay outside of the hotel zone, especially during the first days after your arrival to Cancún/Mexico.

    I ended up getting athletes foot while there. Not sure if it was from the tub or the floor. But it's hard to avoid that with so many people coming in and out of a location like that. Wasn't terrible, but it was my only bad experience with this space.

    Arturo was super nice and accommodating. My Spanish is a bit rusty so he helped order me a taxi to get to the airport and got me a far better price than what I was quoted by a different taxi service.
