La Sirenita is the little hippy sister to the elegant hacienda vacation rental Casa Sirena across the street. La Sirenita is the perfect annex for larger groups at Casa Sirena and for quick trips and extended stays. Contact us for more information about renting both properties.
Kind Of. We have no small children policy. During low and mid season, we are happy to welcome families with children. Our hotel can be unsafe for small children – we have a rooftop with no railing, lots of stairs, lots of concrete, a small dipping pool in the courtyard, etc… If your child is 8+, understands our concerns, follows safety precautions and respects the needs of our other guests, – we would love to have them stay – with you – in your room. If not, we appreciate if you respect our adults-only policy. Oh, and if they can’t behave, we will happily ask you to leave for the comfort of our other guests.

There is also a local bus, hop on and hop for $20pesos!
