We have just returned from a three-night visit at Chaab'il B'e where we stayed in one of the thatched roof casitas in the beautiful garden of the property. Our room had a comfortable queen bed as well as a set of bunkbeds, both draped with mosquito netting---though we never noticed any insects. Despite the heat, the ceiling and floor fans kept us comfortable--after all, the Mayans designed these structures to tolerate the heat. At night we fell asleep listening to sounds of the jungle, and we were fortunate enough to be awakened to howler monkeys nearby. Sheila is an amazing cook, and our meals were extraordinary. Good coffee greeted us each morning, and breakfast began with a lavish display of fresh fruits and included abundant pancakes, eggs, waffles, and beans. For dinner we enjoyed fresh salads, soup, perfectly roasted chicken, pureed cauliflower, and a pasta and vegetable dish. Dessert was copious quantities of mango crumble with ice cream. Sheila and Rusty are friendly and welcoming, eager to share their knowledge of the birds and all of nature that inhabit their property. We are most grateful for our time spent at their home.
