Photos and Description of the Progreso vacation apartment rental
1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, sleep 4, large pool

* One block from the Malecon beach boardwalk

* The Malecon boardwalk, downtown stores, and most restaurants are wheelchair accessible

* Progreso is a very safe community: for added protection, the property is walled and has a security gate

* Guests have full use of the large pool facilities and garden area. The pool has access for a wheelchair (provided)

* The Canadian owners live on the property and are available for any questions you may have

*Suite has a fridge, stove, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, blender, dishes and utensils

* There are ceiling fans and air conditioning in the suite

* High speed wi-fi internet access (bring your own computer) and a DVD player are included.

* Interested in Costa Rica? Ask about our condo in Jaco!

* If you want a place full of tourists, restaurants, and other amenities just like the USA or Canada, Progreso is not the place to be. If you want the experience of authentic Mexican culture among friendly locals, Progreso is the place to be.

* Mostly Spanish is spoken here. (However you can get by easily with a Spanish phrase book) You will be immersed in a community of friendly, helpful, and serene people. The crime rate is very low for most of the Yucatan, as its roots are founded by the legacy of the peaceful Mayan culture.

* Progreso's beaches are safe and tranquil making them great for swimming. A nearby marina provides windsurfing and jet-ski rentals.

* Grocery stores, markets, pharmacies, and many restaurants are within easy walking distance. A car is not necessary, however driving a rented car in Mexico is easy and safe, and can make it much easier to get around. The house is one and a half blocks from the bus route, making it easy to ride around town. An air-conditioned bus to Merida leaves the bus terminal every 15 minutes for less than $3 return.

* a golf course only 20 minutes away (and another one under construction), or visit the city of Merida, Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza, Uxmal, or the Loltun caves. Enjoy excursions into the mangrove swamps, or take a trip to see the flamingo colonies. You can swim in the cenote at Dzibilchaltun, only 15 minutes away.

We spent many an afternoon lazing by the pool, plus the odd massage poolside organized by Joanne. We were totally looked after by Joanne & Chuck from the moment we arrived. In fact before that Joanne had answered questions by email about how to find the place, where to buy a local sim card for my phone and other helpful hints.
The apartment was great. Spacious, comfortable, well equipped and clean.
We spent over two weeks there and found it ideal as a base to explore the many Mayan ruins and natural attractions within an hour or two's drive.
I would recommend this apartment without hesitation.
Thank you Joanne and Chuck.

This casita was authentic,safe, and comfortable.One block from the beach walk, or "Malecon," it was in the perfect location. Best of all, the Canadian owners/caretakers made the experience magnificent. Joanne was a great friend and hostess. In every way, her service exceeded my expectations. No matter when you arrive or leave, Joanne will be there to greet you. A first day trip to the market(the Bodega) helps make the transition there seamless. She even had a book of all the eating places and their quality, explanations of the do's and don'ts of the Yukatan, ways to tap into the services of the city, and "must see" sites.Something special happening in town-Joanne makes sure you know about it and how to participate. Top that off with free internet and Canadian cable tv and you have a special place to stay.

now on my favorite list for return visits. There literally were no surprises except the property does actually look a bit better than the photos. The grounds and landscaping are gorgeous and the interior is bright and cheery. This is something that you don't always find in Mx. Lots of places to hang out inside and out and right around the corner from the beach and restaurants. What more could you want.
I also want to mention that Joanne (the owner) was extremely helpful and went far above and beyond the call of duty.
We (husband and I) highly recommend this very clean and well located rental.

Arriving in Progreso late at night Joanne was ready to greet us. The location is excellent with walking distance to most stores and sight seeing. Joanne was gracious to take us to the larger grocery store and spent time explaining the differences in food for the Yucatan. She gave us a short sightseeing tour and how safe Progreso was. We truly enjoyed out stay and loved the suite and large pool with total privacy. We would recommend this home any time...thanks again Joanne and Chuck

Oasis del Mar is close to everything you want to be close to in Progreso including the beach which is just around the corner. It is a great place to stay with two cozy apartments and a wonderful pool. Joanne and Chuck are great hosts who are happy to tell you places to go and things to do or, if you prefer, let you alone. Wifi is important to me and there are two separate ISPs so that if one has a service issue, you still have a connection. We'll be back in Progreso later this year and plan to stay there again.

Amazing Stay

We had an amazing time down in Progreso staying with Chuck and Joanne. Everything listed in the description is perfectly accurate, but there is just so much more to see and do, and Joanne and Chuck are unbelievably welcoming and accommodating. The extremely comfortable atmosphere of the property makes it feel like a home away from home. The amount of tours are endless, and delicious food is usually just down the street or around the corner, and for the most part, inexpensive. We highly recommend this place to anybody, whether it's somebody looking to just relax and enjoy the warm weather, or someone with a "do it all, see it all" attitude, Progeso and Oasis Del Mar has something to offer for everybody. -Randy and Alannah

Home away from home

Submitted: September 21, 2010 Stayed: April 2010
This is a great place to stay. We travel frequently and usually are ready to go home in a weeks time but after spending the month of April at Oasis Del Mar we did not want to leave. It had become home. Everything you need to be comfy is there and even though my wife has a bit of a handicap we could walk almost everywhere and the pool and suite design really made life simple. If we needed a taxi that was very prompt and unbelievably inexpensive as was everything else, dining out, attractions etc. and although all this is great the very best part of Oasis Del Mar are Chuck and Joanne. They make you feel right at home at all times. They also are a store house of information and share with you any time you want it. We will return very soon and this is where we will stay, it is now home for us in Mexico.
