Casa
Marita is an authentic mexican hacienda in a preserved,
traditional community. Away from the mega resorts and high
tourist traffic you will enjoy a unique experience among
the locals of Isla
de la Piedra.
Casa Marita is situated in a large beach sand yard right
on La Playita, a small, sleepy, fishing harbour. From the
shade of the coconut, lime and mango trees you can relax
in the yard and enjoy the scenery. Watch the cruise
ship, and boats come in and the plentiful birdlife including
pelicans,
white egrets, hawks and herons.

is a fire stove in the yard where you can cook up your fresh
caught fish.
The
property is fenced and can be accessed by foot from the
harbour side or vehicle around front. Their is a car spot
for your vehicle. The hacienda is locked and secure so you

friendly and very helful although speak only spanish.
