This was our second stay at Casa Luna and we loved it just as much as the first. The home itself is gorgeous and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. We spent quite a bit of time in the pool and on the ocean side patio watching the waves. The home is just a few doors down from La Buena Vida which is a terrific little beachfront bar and restaurant with great food. We ate there multiple times and were never disappointed. The main plaza in town is still very walkable and has a few other great restaurants and a little grocery store. I highly recommend this rental!

I chose this house because of the reviews about the cooking from Rosa. I expressed a want for her cooking throughout our stay. The communication by the team on the ground was awful. Never responded or setup our dinners. The house doesn’t have a common area that is air conditioned and they will turn off your room air conditioners each day so difficult for groups when the weather is hot. The house is not great for kids, many sharp corners and balcony drop offs. Over all akumal bay is very nice, the Gardner who showed us the home was very nice. Other than that the staff team left a lot to be desired and when I confronted the issue was met with rude remarks and dismissive attitudes.

The place was even better than the pictures, each suite had an amazing view! We had home cooked meals, gorgeous sunrises, and helpful recommendations. We didn’t want to leave!

This house is great for multiple families vacationing together. There are essentially three separate areas (first is the casita with a king bed, second is the upstairs with a king bed and a separate kitchen and third is the main living space with two bedrooms, one has a king with adjacent room with bunk beds and the second has two beds). Rosa and Humberto were very kind. There are a few places to eat nearby and Ingrid assisted us in renting a golf cart. Great family vacation!

We would absolutely come back for another visit! The living space could be used as 3 separate units, each with kitchen, bathrooms, etc. We had 3 couples plus 4 kids and it worked great. We could all have our privacy but still come together in the common area. The location is fantastic. We were close to Akumal beach and turtle tours at the dive shop as well as the lagoon just up the road and the Akumal Monkey Sanctuary. Ingrid has info about a private cenote tour which is fantastic. Outside of Akumal you don’t have far to go to get to Tulum, Xel Ha and lots of other well known cenotes. There are plenty of good dining options in the area. Like others who have stayed at Casa Luna we requested Rosa’s cooking one of our evenings and we were not disappointed. The diner was fantastic. Humberto keeps the property looking pristine and helped the kids open some coconuts they acquired from the trees in the yard. Casa Luna has a lot to offer. We would highly recommend a stay.

We had a lovely stay! It’s not a sandy beach and we couldn’t get into the water, but the rocks were interesting to explore. The house and the views are stunning!! The house is split in two, with one full apartment separated from the other 3 bedrooms, which worked fine for our group. The staff is awesome and attentive. The upper terrace is amazing, but there are big gaps which made it a bit scary with small kids, but we were able to manage. The kitchen is well-equipped, which was super useful.

This was our second stay at Casa Luna and we can't wait to visit again. Every time we stay in Akumal, we discover new and amazing adventures, and Casa Luna puts us right in the middle of this tranquil paradise. Ingrid is always responsive and helpful... and the house staff, Rosa and Umberto, do an amazing job keeping the house and grounds pristine and beautiful.

We loved our stay. Rosa is an incredible cook and Humberto was super friendly and helpful. Ingrid was very friendly and gave us a tour of the place. She also responds quickly to any questions and concerns. The place matches the pictures. There is lots of stairs, which is no problem if you are healthy, but definitely something to consider if you are traveling with elderly or handicapped people.
