Great for a romantic dinner. Deb and Willy will ensure you get the best care during your visit. Great food, drinks and atmosphere. Often times live music too. Oh...save room for dessert, or take some togo! It's also ONLY a three block walk from Casa Bella Noche. Reservations highly recommended, message them on Facebook.

Greta is amazing if you're lucky enough to have her as your server. But of course everyone there is amazing. We really enjoy the seafood platter for two here, but we haven't had a bad meal. Located on Hildago.

In our opinion it's the best pie on the island. Don't get us wrong there's some good pizza on this island but to us, this one wins. They also have good salads and grilled fish among other options. CASH ONLY.

Wowzers. Another romantic dinner setting with view of the Caribbean. Maria and Dan along with their amazing staff take pride in their food and establishment. Check them out on FB for daily happy hour specials from 3-5. Our favorite happy house sandwich is the Chicken Parm, it's filling and easy to split. Oh and their Italian Margarita also known at "The DeNuccio" is delicious. Reservations recommended for dinner. We always feel like family there.

Nicely priced seafood while you put your toes in the sand. Lively and very local, sometimes with live music. Lunch times are popular. Just north of the ferry terminal, marked with a red surfboard sign with "Picus" listed. So many good choices.

Valentin and David will take good care of you at this great little beach club along Playa Norte. Check with them for minimum consumption per chair. We go here often as we get good service and we like the ease of getting to their bathrooms and the food is good too.

One of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Lined with beach clubs where you can lounge and be served by the sea. Please check costs before sitting down as no one likes surprises. Many of our guests spend a lot of time soaking in the sun.

Centro

Centro is the main tourist district on the island and is home to Hildago Street, Playa Notre, The Town Square and so much more. You may wish to check before your trip to see if there are any special events happening in Centro. Please watch the one way streets.
Vibrant pedestrian friendly neighborhood just south of Casa Bella Noche. Lots of great places to stop for some amazing food, drinks or a little bit of shopping. This is where many islanders live, so it's the pulse of the island.

This is where Casa Bella Noche is located! Also many islanders live here and it's a vibrant area that comes to life as the sun sets. Taco venders, tienda's, bakery, small local eateries and such usually open around 5pm, except Sunday's. We're honored to be a part of their wonderful neighborhood.

GROCERIES

The island's largest grocery store. Also just 1/3 of a mile away. There are ATM's here you can withdraw in Pesos. Also has a lot of little items like a neighborhood market would have like sunscreen, soaps, bandaids and such.

Take a left as you exit the property, and then your next left. Go down one block and this little market will be on your left. They have most of the basics you may need. It's also a great place to buy more ice. (Beer, wine, bread, eggs, water, snacks, general toiletries.)

MapChick's Isla Mujeres App!! HIGHLY Recommend.

The app itself is free, but there is a $14.99 annual charge (you can stop after a year). This application can really open up many things Isla during your trip. From peso exchange, to menus at most restaurants and so much more it really can help guide you to a successful trip. **WE are NOT affiliated, but we live here and find it useful almost daily.

Taxi, Bus, Bike, Moto, Golfcart or by foot.

There are so many ways to get around Isla Mujeres. Our favorite is renting a golf cart, but it's also the most expensive. You can rent motor, bikes or just walk too. Taxis are usually easy to get, but we do aways ask how much before entering the taxi. Most guests catch them from the SW corner of the property. Buses come right by the house approximately every 15 minutes. (Note Island time) It will cost 20 pesos per ride/per person and you can simply stand and ask the driver to stop at any point you need off the bus. Daily passes are available.

Currency

You will get more bang for your buck if you convert your USD to pesos either before you arrive or here on the island. The establishment has to convert them so they set their own rate, it's not a bank rate. You'll find many places don't accept credit cards so please always ask before ordering. Please ALWAYS tip in cash when possible, this will ensure your server receives the money that day and doesn't have to wait.

FOOD DELIVERY

If you want to stay in and have food delivered there are many options. Here are two we use often. 1st is Merca Isla. It's a facebook group, and often they will delivery food directly to the house. WhatsApp/Translation Needed. 2nd is Isla Delivery. http://www.isladelivery.com Casa Belle Noche - Pedro Joaquin Coldwell #13 - Metereológico Corner of Jesus Martinez Ross and Pedro Joaquin Coldwell Across the street from Park Of The Worker Ants. - Helpful to send a picture of outside of house when ordering via Merca Isla. They honk/beep upon arrival, they do not knock.

TIENDAS - Local Convenience Stores

There are so many, but the two we use often are: Walk out the guest door and head left, toward the Caribbean. At the corner you will see "red doors" and what we call the "Coke A Cola" store. It's a small store, but has bread, milk, eggs and non alcoholic beverage among other things. Walk out the guest door and head left, at the first corner go left. At the end of the block it's on the left. Karenpool it's name. Larger selection including alcohol, ice, ice cream, snacks and some household items.

LOCAL FOOD

If you go north on Jesus Martinez Ross after approx 5 pm you'll see Tacos Erika (a little local stand) about 1.5 blocks up and on the left and Dona Maria (great local fare) about 2 blocks up and on the right. Times/Days for Dona Maria differ, but if you catch them open you won't be sad.
