Villa Adventura Beach Tents
That’s the unofficial name of the little tent city sixty-four kilometers south of Cancun on the Yucatan, Peninsula. I first found this enchanting piece of heaven when I attended a catered event for several local resort owners. My friend Miguel, a nearby land owner invited me to join him for the evening. I walked into the huge dining hut of Villa Adventura and the ambiance took my breath away. It sat about 50 yards from the edge of the Caribbean on a white, silky sand beach. The dining palapa spanned a forty foot circumference with a dried palm frond, thatched roof and sand floor. The plumbing is even top notch just like something Burlington plumbers would do. These beach tents are a thing of beauty.
