    I must admit, I'm quite impressed by the interior design and floor plan given the size of the dome. It reminds me of the alien homes from the TV show Star Trek in the 60s!!!

    I’m from Mexico, I love your channel and I appreciate that you showed this beautiful place in Mexico. Sometimes people do not see past the drug dealers and the bad things the media shows. Which even though Mexico has a lot of tourism they mostly go to the really touristic places like Cancun, this is a new point of view of the beautiful eco places in the country, great video Jenna!!

      Thank you so much for your kind words. Right now my poor México is going through a huge turmoil. Between drug dealers' cartels and a corrupt government have the country at its worst, a lot of insecurity and more poverty than ever.
      On the other hand, we have the contrast because it is a country rich in history, culture, traditions, climate, food, beaches, music, architecture and many more things, being the best its people.
      If you go, when you go, just give me a shout and I would love to give you some pointers and even have my family show you around.
      GOD bless you ❣🙏

We brasilians are kinda like Mexicans and some of us are dumb EUA ass lickers, but some of us include myself, we can see the reality through the puppet media about Mexico/EUA because our struggle is very the same.

      México is a gorgeous country with great food, great beaches and great people. It's two main problems right now are: corruption and drug cartels.
      You really need to go to very touristy places, it's safer that way, and travel within a group, never alone.
      I hope you can go, it really is worth it.

      How can you recommend a place you have never been to, and you have not experienced? Seriously? Do you even consider that the mosquitoes will eat you alive there? And are you really willing to travel or walk " a few miles" to the beach and "a few miles" back every day? I'd rather be at a 5-star resort at the beach, then catching a zika virus in the jungle, thanks.

    I love the circular feature of domes. It’s so much more inspiring than the hard square corners of most homes.
    The curves of this type of home compel comfort and harmony. I would go as far to say that it generates negative ions. Total relaxation.
    Curves are more interesting. It enables one to be creative in placement of the different needs of a home. This dwelling is beautiful and functional in all the needs of the occupant.

    Did you say you can stay there for "free" if you clean garbage off the beach? I would love to do both! I was vacationing with my family on a beautiful island one summer and the resort we stayed in had a private beach. It broke my heart to see plastics and all sorts of garbage on an otherwise pristine beach. I spent an hour or so picking up trash off powdery white sand. The locals told me the tide would just sweep the garbage back toward the sea, but I didn't care. At least I tried to do make a difference for the environment somehow. Great video as usual, Jenna, and a gorgeous rental dome/house. Cheers!

But never executed in such a beautiful setting or with recycled glass bottle faucets and sea shell showers. Definitely not what comes to mind when you think of the Cancun area. Mexico is doing a fine job with unique small architectural getaways. Take a look at the little individual hillside rooms of Hotel Endemico in Mexico's Guadalupe Valley wine country.
