If you’re searching for an off-the-grid, sustainable vacation home to enjoy the Caribbean at its best, look no further. Solar-powered, designed with a local aesthetic, and nestled in an unspoiled beach, this comfortable zen refuge is an escape from the ordinary.

Blanca Beach House is a retreat for those who want to get in touch with nature. The beachfront residence is designed with a local identity, decorated with fine wood and chukum, a special resin obtained from an endemic tree that is used to create stylish finishes, giving the house a sophisticated tropical look.

Two king-size beds and two queens are distributed in three bedrooms, all with beautiful sea-facing balconies. Outdoors, you will find the pool and wide-open spaces that lead to a private beach and the turquoise ocean beyond.

Sustainability is also a key feature of this villa, which gets all its energy from a state-of-the-art solar power system. A rainwater filtering system and a well supply the villa with running water. House Isla Blanca is located in the northernmost part of the Riviera Maya, past Playa Mujeres’ new hotels in what has long been a favorite spot for locals to disconnect from the city and get in touch with the landscape.
