I also enjoy their tuna tartare and guacamole, perfectly seasoned. Give them a try for low key, laid back relaxation.

The GURU beach club is in a great location and the overall service and food are good. However,…read moreguests should be aware that the club includes a SUGGESTED TIP on the RENTAL of beach beds. While tipping for service and food makes sense, it's unclear why a tip would be added to a simple bed rental, since no service is actually provided for that charge. For this reason, guests should double-check their receipts before paying to make sure they are only tipping for the services they actually received. ---- El club de playa GURU está en una excelente ubicación y el servicio y la comida son buenos. Sin embargo, los huéspedes deben saber que el club incluye una propina sugerida en el alquiler de las camas de playa. Aunque tiene sentido dejar propina por el servicio y la comida, no queda claro por qué se agrega una propina al simple alquiler de una cama, ya que no se brinda ningún servicio adicional por ese cargo. Por eso, se recomienda que los huéspedes revisen bien su recibo antes de pagar para asegurarse de que solo están dejando propina por los servicios realmente recibidos. ---- Le beach club GURU est très bien situé et le service ainsi que la nourriture sont bons. Cependant, les clients doivent savoir que l'établissement ajoute un pourboire suggéré sur la location des lits de plage. S'il est compréhensible de laisser un pourboire pour le service et la nourriture, il n'est pas clair pourquoi un pourboire est ajouté à la simple location d'un lit, étant donné qu'aucun service supplémentaire n'est fourni. Pour cette raison, il est conseillé aux clients de vérifier attentivement leur reçu avant de payer afin de s'assurer qu'ils ne laissent un pourboire que pour les services réellement reçus.

We left the island on Sunday after being there 8 days. Had an amazing vacation there as we always…read moredo (this was our 6th visit). We stayed at a hotel right on Playa Norte near Ixchel. On Saturday night at a little after 10 pm, the pounding music started. Since my husband and I had to get up at 6 am to catch an early ferry and get to the airport, this was frustrating. By 11 pm I decided to walk out to the beach in the direction the music was coming from (which was toward Ixchel) to see what was going on. Honestly I thought it was just some people down on the beach partying. But no. As I approached Chimbo's which is a convenience store with an open air deck on the back of it, I noticed strobe lights and a DJ and his assistant (no one else inside whatsoever) cranking up the music so loud that when I went inside the music made my chest pound. Again, who was the music for? As there were zero patrons inside. I approached the assistant to ask if they could turn the music down a little because we had to catch an early flight and could hear the music 3 hotels away. I asked him if he was aware that there were literally hundreds of people inside the nearby hotels who weren't going to be able to sleep. He told me "No" over and over again...that he wouldn't turn it down. When I asked why he just shrugged his shoulders and blew me off. I then began to approach the dj himself to talk to him. After ignoring me for a few minutes he came around his equipment and slap/pushed me so hard on the right side of my chest that I almost fell flat on my face. Is this suitable behavior for a man to assault a woman? Very upset I went back to my hotel to ask if she could call the police because I had been assaulted. I then went back with the front desk person at my hotel to try to get her to talk to them. They flat refused to lower the volume. A woman who claimed to be one of the owners got in my face when I also asked her if she could turn it down and if she was aware that there were hundreds of people that weren't going to sleep tonight because of this. She cussed at me and told me "I dont care!". Cops were called. And of course they did nothing. The music seemed to only get louder and went on til after 4 a.m. When we checked out the next morning there was another couple in the lobby saying they got no sleep either. I have a small bruise on my arm where I was slapped by this man and the owner of this fine establishment (sarcasm) "doesnt care" that they are not only keeping people awake but also knows that her employee hits women and also "doesnt care". Chimbo's. Just thought you should know.

While driving around Isla Mujeres in a golf cart, we stumbled upon Chimbos by complete chance--and…read morewhat a find it was! We ended up at a dead end where a friendly guy let us know we couldn't go any farther. That's when we noticed we discovered a restaurant perfectly situated near the water, and it turned out to be exactly what we were looking for. The setting is absolutely stunning. Picture crystal blue waters just a few feet from your table. It's the ideal spot to soak in the island vibes while enjoying a meal. The only small downside was the occasional vendor stopping by to sell something or sing, but they weren't pushy, so it didn't take away from the experience. I ordered the agua chile, which was fresh, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying, loaded with perfectly sautéed shrimp. To top it off, I enjoyed an ice-cold Michelob Ultra--such a refreshing pairing. We only had a few hours on the island, but we couldn't have picked a better place to eat by accident. Chimbos delivered delicious food, great service, and breathtaking views. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Isla Mujeres!

However if you like cigars like I do, all the "Cubans" are fake so don't buy them. Will definitely come back to this relaxing spot for a day at the beach.

Forgive me, but I must have missed something. One of the ads says "in this luxurious Beach club…read morefeatures infinity pools." This beach club is almost everything one would want to avoid in a beach club. + Filthy dressing rooms with smelly standing water underneath open slats of wood. + No locker service, but torn apart locker ruins containing people's personal belongings. + Two small, old swimming pools filled with drunks carrying glass bottles and wine glasses. Twice I watched a drunk drop a beer bottle and have it bounce on the cement. What happens when someone smashes a glass? Do they close the whole facility and drain the pool? + Tiny, postage stamp Beach area. Normally one would appreciate a location away from the city center, but this location is so far from the city center the only way to get here is 2 rent a vehicle or pay for a taxi. Based on the description in all of the ads, I expected something similar to services typical of at least a two-star hotel. maybe I came in with way too high expectations. I traveled to Isla mujeres from my beautiful hotel with its four glimmering pools, one of which was an actual infinity pool. Do not travel more than 15 minutes from your place of residence to get here or you will be disappointed. The food. The food was tasty and the food service met expectations. That's the reason for two stars rather than one. I had the Yucatan ceviche and the fried calamari with a side order of french fries. The ceviche was plentiful and tasted good. The fried calamari portion was tiny and was a bit squishy. The french fries tasted bland and we're stale.
