Welcome to VILLA MARIPOSA (Butterfly House), a beautiful vacation 
home on a white sands beach within walking distance of the unspoiled 
little fishing village of Celestun, on the Gulf coast of Mexico.  
Here you can truly relax and be comfortable.  You will find friendly 
people, a serene environment, a market place, and many wonderful 
oceanfront seafood restaurants.  Walk for miles on the long deserted 
beach, collect sea shells, swim in the turquoise ocean waters, 
listen to the waves, relax in your hammock, be amazed by the 
breathtaking sunsets, and stargaze like nowhere else. The beach is 
beautiful and just outside your door!
