Your hosts, Kenn and Karen Strass & Wanda Folden, are originally from Saskatchewan, CANADA. We welcome you to our new home on the beach with rental suites in Celestun, Yucatan, MEXICO.

We fell in love with Mexico on our first visit in 1983. In the last few years the visits have become more frequent and the love of the country, the people and their culture have grown stronger. We made the decision to live our dream by starting a 'new' life in Mexico. We share with you our home hotel.... “Casa de Celeste Vida”. Come and experience the Yucatan. We will do our best to provide you with the best vacation in Celestun!

We hope to make everyones' stay unique and special by offering personalized service. We are happy to arrange airport pick-up service, or grocery shop so everything you need is waiting for you in your room when you arrive, or maybe a day trip to Uxmal is to your liking, a special dinner under the stars, or even help in the local market of Celestun so you can experiment with true Yucatan and Maya cuisine.
