Xamach Dos - Our Final Day

Vacation - it's down to the final day - let's head back to Tulum!!  First a stop in the town of Tulum for a few souvenirs - and then it's off down the bumpy road as we headed to Xamach Dos, a very small resort out in the middle of nowhere!!  We discovered this place the last time we were here and our hope is that we will actually stay here next year!!
 
After meeting Michelle, the owners' daughter who is running the resort (it was like old home week as she's from Manitou Springs, CO), the guys headed out to fish in that beautiful water!!
 
This place is pure relaxation - there is ABSOLUTELY nothing to do but read, fish and relax!!  The nearest town (Tulum) is a good 45 minutes away!  I'm sure these hammocks get plenty of use!

This is the eating area and the bar area - since there are only 5 cabanas to stay in, it doesn't make for a lot of people at one time!

The guys had brought our leftover fish from the other day for them to cook for our lunch but before the fish, they fixed us fresh cerviche - YUM!!!

What a view from the eating area!!

There is all kinds of driftwood around the bar area - the owner is quite talented and makes different items from things that have washed up on shore!

After lots of visiting and relaxation, we headed back to the condo to get ready for our final dinner - it was quite windy where we ate at and unfortunately our meal wasn't the greatest - but guess you can't have a great meal every night!

Although this isn't a great picture, (Glenn had the camera and didn't zoom in), I wanted to show you a picture of this raccoon looking animal which is called a coati mundi - it has a longer nose than a raccoon and a tail like a monkey but it's coloring is just like a raccoon - they're all over the place!

Saturday morning the owners of the condo stopped by a few minutes before we headed out and we finally got a picture of the 4 of us!!!

And then it was off to our respective airlines for our flights back home - we have some wonderful memories to take back home and already plans to head back next year!
