WOW, What a wonderful vacation. We spent 10 days at Villa Gordon Paraiso and wish we could spend 10 more. The house is beautiful and the view is even better. We saw 7 people total on the whole stretch of beach that you can look up and down on. The beach in front of the Villa is perfect to relax and have your favorite cocktail. There are a few bathing/wading pools that you can sit in at the tidal pool area at the end of the beach. There are a few swimming beaches either walking north or to the south. There are more beautiful beaches within a few minutes drive. The house is secluded, but very safe. I even felt more secure knowing the owner lives upstairs and caretakers live below. They really make it like you are by yourselves though. It is like being by yourself but with the security that you have someone there at all times. The owner, Gianni is great to deal with and made our vacation one of the best we have ever had. There is a wonderful breeze that comes off of the Ocean which was nice because we had no mosquitos. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very nice and the pool is wonderful to cool off in. My wife and I spent every morning at the edge of the veranda drinking our coffee and gazing at the beautiful Caribbean. This is also a great location to get away from the touristy areas like Cancun. You can drive or take a taxi a few miles South and shop or dine in the extremely friendly town of Tulum. The prices at the shops and restaurants in Tulum are also cheaper that at the more touristy areas. It is close to many ruins, snorkling areas, shopping, etc. The price for the Villa is also very reasonable and was the best that I had seen at this location for the amenities it had. Overall, I would recommend Villa Gordon for the following: View, Location, Privacy, Convenience, Relaxation, Safety, and of course, the Price.
