The host was absolutely amazing! We arrived in a rush, very stressed out and late, with my baby and boyfriend newly in clutches, and he helped us unpack the car and relax right away with his happy and caring vibe. The garden is so cute and full of amazing plants, and the studio felt like it was decorated with love and unique art from the host. We stayed for one night in a private studio, with 2 beds, a kitchenette and a bathroom, we were very comfortable and its all we needed to transition to the next adventure! Thank you so much!

“Peaceful Natural Paradise”
Beautiful place of calm and tranquillity. The wash basins with taps made out of giant conch shells was the sweetest thing for me. I slept soundly and calmly. My apartment was lovely and spacious. It's a truly special place. I highly recommend taking the airport transfer recommended by the Arturo the guest house owner. I took a random taxi outside the airport and was scammed $1000. Next time I will stay in Cancun I will be very happy to stay here again and go with the taxi recommendation from Arturo the host. The place is very special and peaceful. Arturo was very helpful providing me with everything I needed for my stay, and communication was great. Remember to bring cash for your stay as it is a taxi ride to the nearest cash machine so better to bring pesos with you to pay for the very affordable and lovely accommodation! :)

“Art gallery home in the jungle”
The host is an artist that upcycles just about anything to create art. You will see mosaics, sculptures, and ceramic abstracts. His paintings, seen throughout the property are of exquisite quality. BE SURE to ask about his connecting canvas paintings! Also, I appreciated his mission to reduce carbon footprint. Outside, the jungle is lush and full of birds. It was a $150 peso uber ride to airport. I had spent over a month in Yukatan and this was one of my only hot showers- a bonus! Staying at Casa del Arquitecto was a great way to end my trip.

“Beautiful apartments filled with art and design”
Its a very special place full of art and details all created by the owner and architect Arturo. The apartments have everything incl kitchen etc so also a good place for long term stay in cancun. Super close to the airport in a cute Mexican neighborhood (if u get a taxi ride it should be around 300 MEX- i unfortunately didnt know that and overpaid lkke many coming from tbe airport). So its perfect if u want to avoid typically touristic Cancun Hoteleria Area. The little garden around has beautiful jungle vibes.

“I would 100% recommend!”
The casa was full of culture and art. A very interesting stay and Arturo, the host, was extremely welcoming. The rooms are clean and big - very good value for money. It's a great location if you are travelling to or from the airport.

“Beautiful designs, rooms and place. Amazing host.”
We wanted to book a place that is cheep and close to the airport. We arrived and it was probably the best guesthouse we’ve ever been to. Arthoro, the host, made us an amazing dinner and drank with us Coffe at the morning. The whole place is made from recycled material that he takes and makes into the most beautiful artwork and designs. Can’t recommend this place enough! Will definitely be back.

This is a lovely space to stay - beautiful and peaceful. Arturo is a wonderful and personable host. He showed us his beautiful artwork, made us coffee and showed us how to feed the capybaras that live in the garden. Would 100% recommend to anyone. Thank you!

A Hidden Gem in Cancun – Artistic, Eco-Friendly, and Full of Heart This accommodation near Cancun Airport is, without a doubt, my favorite place out of the 10 places we stayed at during our trip. It’s not just a place to stay—it's an experience. The entire property is designed with incredible attention to detail, love, and impeccable taste, making the space feel warm and unique. What truly sets this place apart is its eco-friendly ethos. Almost everything is handmade by the owner, who is an absolutely lovely person. Their passion and care shine through in every corner of the property, from the artistic decor to the sustainable practices. Although we only stayed for one night at a time (as a jump-off to the airport or the starting point for our tour), I always found myself wishing we had more time here. It’s far from the hustle of Cancun’s touristy areas, which makes it the perfect spot for anyone who loves art and wants a peaceful, unique stay. The property is surrounded by lush plants, and if you’re lucky, you might spot some wildlife! There’s one wild animal in particular that I believe is native to Mexico—it was such a delight to observe. In summary, this place is a treasure. I can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a tranquil, artistic retreat close to the airport yet not far from the center. I can’t wait to return and hopefully stay longer next time!
