BEST KEPT SECRET INDEED!...

Submitted: June 23, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
My family and I live in Mexico, Guadalajara to be more precisely... !!, just 3 hours from PLT !!... and after 20 years visiting the most touristic and resort kind of beaches near by in the state of Jalisco, Colima and Nayarit, we finally found this PARADISE !!!... The kind of beach that makes you spend the best time with wife and kids, and definetely with best FRIENDS too!!... Our experience at Casa Dos Hermanos has been the BEST ever !!..

The great staff they have, that makes you feel comfortable and special since the minute you arrive is top notch!!.. Gabriel supporting all time with accomodations, home features, surrounding activities, etc was the best!... Pascual, letting us know that we can ask him, and/or the staff, for any special request of groceries, food, beverages, or wine, just from the nearest town of Zacualpan or Otates, was a great deal for us, as we did not carry from home all of the needed, as we realized once we got there, but making the "groceries list" one day before, it helped us to have everything on hand for everyday special meals we made!!... Everyday cleaning by Bella, made everyone more relaxed about focus on relaxing, and not about laundry or dish washing.... The best staff no doubt about it!!...

Casa Dos Hermanos has EVERYTHING that made our stay to be comfortable as in our own homes... Every bedroom has A/C and ceiling fan that makes nights to be nice and temperature stable....The beach, and pool, just being a few steps from the house, made us feel safe about having our kids running around from one place to the other one... spending all day at the beach, which is great for kids as it is flat with a little deep trend for the first 30 to 40 meters, after which, bigger waves (just few feet high, nothing to get worried about) started for the grown ups, and just a few meters further away, you can have waves to practice light surf or boggey board..!!, all at the same beach!!... And then after a day at the beach, spending a moment at the pool to relax and get hungry for dinner at the Terraza in the top Palapa, and a few Margaritas!... just the best !!... We are a tough crowd most of the times we vacation in a resort, we are night entities... but I can tell you that at 10 or 11pm we all be sleeping after a great relaxing day!!!... AMAZING!!!..

We only regret that we did not plan our vacations for the turtle sea releasing experience, which is also just a walking distance from the house!!.. as this activity runs apparently on

We have been so busy already back home and wish we could have stayed another week. The house and amenities were great. There was something fun for everyone from our toddler to his grandma.

Thanks so much. I think we will be back when the turtles arrive! Thank you so much. See you next time for a longer stay.

The pictures don't do this place justice. There were 8 of us and the house had plenty of space for all of us. They set us up with a good quality inflatable mattress that fit comfortably in the upstairs bedroom. The house was very clean & the staff was AMAZING!! Felt like we had butler service the entire time. I would strongly suggest having meal service, it is a great way to experience the culture and you won't be dissapointed with the food. Miles of empty beach and lots of places to enjoy the beautiful sunsets. The ocean was perfect for boagie boarding, we traveled with a toddler and the waves were too big for her to be in the water alone close to shore but many, many sand castles were made. The grounds around the house are very well maintained. We had three teenagers with us, so having time to unplug and enjoy the culture in a restful setting was our favorite part.

It was a great place for a family vacation and made the best Mother's Day gift my Mom has ever received. No standing in lines, no deciding which restaraunt we should eat at, no hassling with crowds - just time to enjoy Mexico, each other, miles of empty beach and a nice cold beer at the pool every afternoon.

The owner of the home was very prompt in responding to every email request. The only complaint about the house was that we had to leave it. ): We will be back next year!

Fun at Casa Dos Hermanos!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 18, 2012 Stayed: February 2012
We stayed at Casa Dos Hermanos for just one week, we would have loved to stay longer! Sitting on the porch at the house amongst the palm trees was a great spot for relaxing, game playing, and reading. The private pool was a great place to hang out and chat with other guest.

Once you are tired of relaxing, the small towns near by are a great diversion. Get a hamburguesa in
Zacualpan (just say "si" to all the fixins'). Overall if you're looking for an empty, beautiful and tropical beach, this is your place!

We will definitely be back.

Cinco Amigos a Casa Dos Hermanos

The other reviews of CDH already cover many of the great things about staying at this (mostly) undiscovered gem: The house, the grounds, the beach, the pool, the weather, the estuary, the town of Platanitos were (are) all as described. We could easily have forgone our rental car and spent the week happily cut off from the rest of the world. However, having a car meant that we got to experience another great aspect of CDH: Location, proximity and access. We drove into Zacualpan a couple of mornings to stock up on groceries. Everything you need is there: fresh fruits and vegetables, cheese and other dairy products, a carniceria for beef and pork (get there early) a really good bakery and best of all, two great tortillarias where a kilo of fresh, hot tortillas costs about a buck and a half! And do yourself a favor and pick up a couple of roasted chickens from the Pollo Asado spot in town. Follow your nose, you can't miss it! Also, would definitely recommend making the trip up to El Cora where you can hike down a well-maintained trail to a beautiful waterfall. Getting there was a bit of a challenge but so worth it. After El Cora we drove up north a bit to the town of San Blas where there are a good variety of shops, restaurants and bars geared towards both locals and tourists. Stop at the roadside kiosks on the way out of town for fresh banana bread and other delicious baked goods. It's all just a short drive from Playa Las Tortugas. So if you're looking to spend your vacation carefree and car-less then by all means take advantage of the great staff at Playa Las Tortugas. You will be well taken care of. But if you want to mix in a bit of adventure and culture then by all means, rent a car and get out there! Casa Dos Hermanos is a great place to use as your home base. Will DEFINITELY be back.

Having been to Bucerias in 2002, I admit I was a bit skeptical that what I saw on the website was not going to be what we got. HOWEVER, it perfectly depicts what the house, the grounds and the location are like and I was so pleased. The website states that it is quite a trek to get to the property and it is true. But, our drivers were friendly, helpful and prepared with beverages for the ride! The staff is friendly and easy to be around and all of our requests were accomodated in a timely manner. March is a great time to go, the weather was perfect. Bring lots of bug spray! Some of us got bit, while others didnt and I have to admit that was the only item of discomfort I experienced while we were there. The 3 things we did while we were there was a fishing trip for the men, set up by Gabriel and escorted to the boat. We had quite the feast on yellow fin, mahi mahi, red snapper and mackerel. Also, we swam across the lagoon and walked up the hill to the little neighboring fishing village of Platanitos where we had lunch on Sunday. Then, on Thursday, we went to La Panita for the street fair where we purchased some fabulous items. The rest of the time, we enjoyed the pool, the sun and many walks on the beach. Sunsets are amazing! I cant say enough about the ease of reservations, and information from the owner was fantastic and prompt. I would definitely recommend this destination!

Paradise Palace..!!

5 of 5
Submitted: March 15, 2012 Stayed: March 2012
What a gem we found here..!! This house is like a mini palace nesstled within a palm tree forrest. It is fully equiped to cater to the vacationer. Lots of outdoor leisure furniture, to sit ouside & listen to the waves smashing on the beach. My wife & I walked about 5 miles along the beach without seeing anyone at all watching pelicans diving for fish. We did,nt think there were places like this in Mexico, so secluded, safe, water clean to swim in, quiet resort, no garbage. The fishing was excellent right of the beach in front of the house & at the estuary. It is a safe & easy drive from Sayulita & the Mega Store (make sure you load up with food & wine). The locals are very friendly & there was not one person trying to sell you anything. The house is large, comfortable, fully equiped, very safe & quiet.We never had to lock the door while we were out which is rare in Mexico. We give Playa Las Tortugas/ Casa Dos Hermanos a 10.

Casa Dos Hermanos - January 2012

5 of 5
Submitted: February 12, 2012 Stayed: January 2012
Our stay at Playa Las Tortugas was wonderful! I have been raving about it to everyone and have told quite a few people that I thought they should experience it for themselves.
Casa Dos Hermanos was perfect and well-suited for our preferences. I think Dos Hermanos has a great floor plan; it could easily accommodate up to six people (3 large bedrooms each with bath).
I enjoyed the decor, conveniences (Boogie Boards supplied by the owners, easy access to pool, etc.) and its wonderful location within the resort. I loved the view from my second floor bedroom and relished sleeping with the windows open and being lulled to sleep by the waves. The Casa is clean and well-kept; the common areas of the resort are, as well.

The staff was terrific! Everyone was so friendly and gracious - and readily available. We utilized the cooking service; the food was delicious and we had plenty! Fresh juice was left each afternoon, as well. Each staff member had a "can do" attitude and were extremely responsive when answering our questions or assisting with our requests. After losing a pair of sunglasses in the ocean (doh!), we asked Pascual to purchase a new pair - along with some Coronas. The next morning, the beer was in the fridge and a new pair of sunglasses was on the table - and it was even Pascual's day off! ...he had arranged for someone else to deliver - above and beyond!

Your stay at Casa Dos Hermanos can be as relaxing or as active as you wish; you can spend long leisurely days at the Casa, or you can find plenty of activities on the grounds (kayaking, Boogie Boarding, etc.). Consider a visit to the neighboring fishing village of Platanitos for lunch (we had Pescado Serandeado at San Ruiz's - very good!); this is also where the fishing/whale watching boats depart.

Muchas Gracias!

Thanks so much for sharing your great place in PLT

Submitted: February 7, 2012 Stayed: January 2012
We had a super time, and could easily have stayed longer. It seemed every day there was something neat happening, including turtle launches, turtle hatching and turtle egg burying. We even had some luck with the fishing, caught five different kinds, nothing big, and mostly out of the surf right off the beachfront.

Thanks for sending Gabriel with the new beach chairs. We seemed to spend the later part of each day with them down at the beach, culminating in a few beach fires, which was lovely.
