Now combine those feelings
with being within a place of
mystic and beauty, you now
have everything you need to
give you the vacation of your
dreams.
Balamku Inn on the Beach
is a new concept of hotel
within the Costa Maya region,
which, if you have done your
research you will know, is one
of Mexico’s hidden t reasures.
Located in the southern area
of the Yucatan Peninsula,
south of a little fishing village,
you will find yourself within one
of the most beautiful, unspoilt
areas of nature surrounded

here.
Obviously with the ocean on
your doorstep, there are lots
of options here from snorkeling
to scuba diving or maybe you
would like to go kayaking, for
which there is no charge for
the use of a kayak, but what a
beautiful way to head out and
look back and see the location
in a totally new prospective,
beauty from every angle, and
this continues below the water
with a coral reef just meters
from the beach. Fly fishing and
deep sea fishing are wonderful
ways to enjoy the sea and you
may even include a snorkel

by a community of friendly
people and the design of the
hotel is based on ensuring that
the environment of this area
is protected for future visitors,
giving you everything you
need without the abuse often
incurred by larger resorts.
Whilst you are here you can be
as active, or as relaxed as you
want. I think we all have that
pile of books we are planning
on reading at some point. Well,
you can do this here, just kick
back, either on the beach
or on your terrace and now
drift off into the pages of your
novels, with no time restrictions,
no outside influences, just you
and nature. If you are looking
to be more active, or want to
break up the days of relaxing
with an activity or two, then
you will not be disappointed,
there is something for everyone

on the reef between pulling
in a snapper or little ones from
the sea grass beds. Nature
abounds when one explores
in a place without crowds. It
is an exceptional experience
to be alone with the magic of
untouched nature!
On land you have many
options too from bird watching,
hiking to explore the Mayan
ruins and of course, there are
jungle walks!
For me personally, the Mayan
Archaeological sites have to
be a must whilst visiting here.
It is an area steeped in history
and even if you think this is not
for you, I can almost guarantee
you will find this fascinating,
so much to learn from a very
peaceful civilization to stories
that will make your toes curl.
So do venture out and find
out more and walk in their
footsteps, which will be only an
hour away from where you are
