Welcome to House of Hummingbirds
Welcome Guide
Puerto Aventuras is a private residence community on the shores of the Caribbean Sea, which is the most unique and popular place for both recreation and living along the entire coast of the Riviera Maya. The uniqueness of this place consists in the natural landscape and developed infrastructure. If you look at the map, you will notice that most of the village is natural water channels and lagoons. Thanks to this, the creators of Puerto Aventuras have made a kind of paradise for life and relaxation.
About your host
In a Different Life, I found myself a salaryman. In this life, I have travelled, and immersed in 20 countries. 20 cultures. And yet the more I see, the more I realize that we are all the same in a universal truth. We are all beautiful.
I pride myself on providing tremendous value to your 5-star experience. Being an avid traveller, I personally understand and appreciate what one would and should want when arriving at a new destination. And specifically the Riviera Maya. I hope that I have provided everything you want for your 5-star tranquil stay.
Please feel free to contact me if I have missed anything.

Do you need pesos?
As an international traveller, I advise that one thing you want to prepare for is access to local currencies. A free service I use and recommend is Wise. It is helpful to avoid high currency fees and bad exchange rates. Banks and local exchange services either give you good fees and poor rates or vice versa. To save money, you need to prepare in advance. Wise provides you with market rates and very nominal fees to exchange and move currencies, including Mexican pesos. You also get a FREE Wise MasterCard that you can use in restaurants, shops, and trips that will not charge you fees for foreign currency while getting market rates. I have used my Wise card in over 20 countries saving me hundreds of dollars. You can get yours here.

Electricity (Air Conditioning)
We include 20 KW/day (It’s enough if you don’t let the air conditioning run all day). If you use more, your charge is 5 pesos/Kw or 0.50 US/Kw.
Quintana Roo’s electricity is at a premium because the infrastructure in place has not paced with the growth in the area. 2 main tips:
1. Turn off AC when out.
2. Keep AC at 24 degrees or warmer. Your house here in the Caribbean will never reach lower than 24 degrees. You will be wasting electricity to reach an unattainable temperature.
