Villa Elena is a basic accommodation at a very reasonable cost located very close to the main area of Isla Mujeres but far enough away to be quiet. Very clean and good and prompt communication. Highly recommended.

Lovely clean room, though our room window was straight onto the road so had to keep curtains shut.
Super clean and friendly though terrace is neglected which is a shame.

Our stay at villa elena was perfect. Suite 5 was lovely, ocean waves crashing all night, room was spotless upon arrival, and bed sheets made each night. Air conditioner worked perfect. Close to amenities and no road nice. Comfy king bed.

Great room with a great balcony view. It'd be great if the receiving receptionist could speak a little English. It was a little difficult to communicate.

Great property. Walkable from the ferry and everything on the north end but just outside of all the noise of the north end bars/restaraunts.

OK
Nice and friendly check-in. But little to no service thereafter. No change of bed sheets. Very simple room. I didn’t like the shampoo, funny smell. Rooftop patio OK, but not nice atmosphere, usually very windy, good views.

This property was perfect, nestled right into the local neighborhood you are submersed in area culture, it is walkable to shopping and restaurants, the manager was great recommending taxi's and boat trips, would definitely return.

The place was very close to restaurants and the beach. The staff never bothered us to clean the unit they cleaned it while we were out. The place had a little kitchenette but we didn’t get kitchen towels until we asked and we were given a hand towel haha it worked.

Our suite (#6) has a gorgeous view of the sunrise over the Caribbean Sea. Bright room with spacious balcony. Laida (staff member on site) was extremely friendly and helpful.

Perfect for a quick trip
I liked that this place is within walking distance from the ferry station and that you don't need to turn on the A/C at night, just leave the balcony door open. The owners are very friendly and the room was very comfortable. The bed maybe too soft for my taste, but I would definitely go back!

We were fortunate to stay in Suite 5 and enjoyed a stunning view and a very comfortable bed. The kitchen facilities are very basic which worked for our purposes. the location is very walkable to town and beaches and having afternoon shade on the deck was welcoming. All of the staff we interacted with were very helpful.

Villa Elena es muy magico!
Wonderful! Clara was very helpful, the place was sparkling clean, and the view from suite 6 is amazing. Possibly one of the better hotel rooms I’ve stayed in, and for a bargain.

Nice and clean room although a bit noisy with the road noise since I had a room next to the street. Bed was very comfortable. The room was a good size, had a rain shower head. I would stay here again but try to get an ocean view room.

We stayed a week at Villa Elana in room #5. It's ocean view is breathtaking! Also, rooftop offers 360 degree view. The property was always very responsive almost immediately to any questions. The onsite manager was super nice! Our room was kept spotless. Will definitely be staying again!

We stayed in suite #5. Amazing ocean view and ocean sounds from the waves throughout the day and night. This experience was so relaxing for my wife and I. We stayed 2 nights. Many shops and restaurants within walking distance. Renting a golf cart or moped is ideal to get around the whole island. The nearby beaches are superb. Overall, this is a super great value and we are going to return guaranteed! Thank you Villa Elena for your hospitality!!!

AMAZING 10/10
Exceptional stay. Staff were amazing. Check in a breeze. Room was massive with the most amazing waterfront deck (suite 5). Property and room were so clean and well cared for. The location!!! was the best! just a short walk in to Centro with beachs, restaurants, bars. Super cute coffee shop (with morning yoga) just 1 minute down the road. Coffee was exceptional. We onlt nbooked two nights here as this was somewhat last minute and we were dissapointed that we had to leave.

Great view from room 6. See the sun rise and shade in the evening.
Very large walk in shower and everything worked as it should.
The bad is the old louvered room doors that let all the sound from the rest of the house in and any sounds coming from your room out.
Properties near Villa Elena are rundown and some are even just piles of old building materials.
