Testimonials
Publicado en Tripadvisor Patsy HVerificada Another great visit to Ikarus We just spent 2 weeks at Ikarus, and was our second time there. There really is no better place to learn to kitesurf, disconnect from busy-ness and regain your perspective. The lagoon is vast and shallow, the instructors are amazing, and the support of the kite school and jet ski's helps build confidence. The food is super healthy with great variety and in general the staff are so caring and attentive. Every time we have gone there we have met amazing like-minded guests, enjoyed the down-to-earth atmosphere, and beautiful sunsets over the lagoon. Thank you to Adriana and Foko, Estaban and the amazing people who share this little piece of heaven with all of us.Publicado en Tripadvisor D OVerificada Great place for lessons! I took 6 hours of kiteboarding lessons at Ikarus over two days, and it was a great experience. My instructor, Enrique, (Kike) was incredibly skilled. He has decades of experience, and his approach to teaching was fantastic. His English was perfect, instructions were clear, and he was consistently encouraging. He allowed me to make mistakes and learn from them, while making safety a first priority. I recommend Ikarus and Kike without reservation! Our room was simple, very clean, and steps from the water. Every staff member was attentive, polite, welcoming and helpful. We had 1 hour massages, and they were wonderful! Thank you Amy!!!Publicado en Tripadvisor Catherine SVerificada Hidden gem for kite surfers in Isla Blanca, Cancun Wonderful, family-run, low key spot for kite surfers visiting from around the world. Excellent accommodations, lovely setting on the lagoon, great service, and delicious food from the on site restaurant. High quality kite surfing instruction. Perfect place for first timers. If you like off the beaten path, this is for you- strongly recommend!Publicado en Tripadvisor Mike JVerificada Great food, very relaxed vibe We came for the food which was so good, and the cocktails were spot on. It became our evening destination for the duration of our stay. Really happy to have found this laid back and welcoming place to watch the sun set over a delicious meal.Publicado en Tripadvisor Andréanne TVerificada Unreal kiting and amazing people and food Incredible spot with perfect kiting conditions, excellent kite school staff, the restaurant food is fresh and super healthy, accommodations very comfortable despite no AC. Definitely coming back to this little hidden gem!Publicado en Tripadvisor Alexandre RVerificada Fantastic place to have fun kitesurfing and relax! I spent one week at Ikarus to learn kitesurfing as a beginner. It was a blast! Kitesurfing: Both the natural conditions and the crew were perfect to learn. My instructor was Enrique, a fantastic guy and teacher. They efficiently teach you how to set up and take care of the equipment, and it's time to go in the water. From there it was super fun to learn and progress. The water is shallow in the entire lagoon, so when falling, you just get up, control your kite and board, and go again! The place: It's not a 5 star hotel with everything you'd find in the US. It's a little piece of quiet paradise. The rooms are simple, clean, and convenient. There are also options to camp. Everyone was super welcoming and nice. I went solo, but ended up seating with fellow visitors or even the family owning the place almost every meal. So I would alternate the days between a few hours of kitesurfing, reading a book, eating, or chatting with a drink. Perfect vacation to have fun and relax.Publicado en Tripadvisor mtadventurerVerificada Love this little gem. LOVE it here! My husband. And I have been here several times. We absolutely enjoy the vibe! Being here is like staying with family. This is our third trip and we already can’t wait to come back. It’s simple but wonderful.Publicado en Tripadvisor OnAir642158Verificada Un petit coin de paradis Un véritable petit coin de paradis ! Nous avons passé un moment inoubliable avec mon mari dans ce spot de kitesurf exceptionnel. La plage est tout simplement magnifique, sauvage et paisible, comme seuls au monde… Loin des immeubles et de l’agitation urbaine, c’est un lieu parfait pour se reconnecter à la nature. Entre les oiseaux et autres animaux à observer, le cadre est d’une beauté rare. Le restaurant sur place est délicieux, chaque plat une vraie découverte. Un immense merci à Foka et sa femme pour leur accueil chaleureux, ainsi qu’à toute l’équipe : tous ont été d’une gentillesse et d’une bienveillance remarquables. Nous repartons avec des souvenirs plein la tête… et une seule envie : revenir au plus vite !Publicado en Tripadvisor Pat DVerificada Love Ikarus I have now been to Ikarus many times and it is hands down the best place to learn kite surfing. They have everything-strong, predictable wind, shallow water with a sandy bottom, flat water in wind protected lagoon, excellent instructors, great equipment and jet ski support. Try the Mezcalina with passion fruit juice - delicious! Outstanding staff - very friendly, kind and helpful.Verificado por: TrustindexLa insignia verificada de Trustindex es el símbolo universal de confianza.
