Juan

We spent two fantastic weeks in the house. It’s spacious enough to accommodate 16 people. Each couple had their own bathroom and a lovely view of the coconut palms and the sea. The teenagers were happy to share the two dormitories. We particularly enjoyed the cooking of Chef Kim and his son. We simply had to arrange a time for meals and they prepared delicious brunches and dinners featuring traditional dishes and plenty of fresh fruit. The only downsides were: - the sargassum seaweed, which prevented us from swimming and turned the sea water brown. Unfortunately, the whole coastline was overrun with it this summer. - On two occasions, there was no hot water in the showers when we returned from an excursion, and the toilets downstairs were blocked. Apparently this happens often because the pipes are too small in Mexico. Fortunately, Maria was always there to help us and find a solution. Despite this, we really did have a wonderful holiday and we hope to be able to come back one day!

10/10 stay at Juan’s place! Great value for the price. We were a group of 13 adults for my bachelorette and had a great time. Nice big communal spaces for everyone to hang out. The upstairs couches have fold out beds fyi (not sure about the downstairs couch). Communication was easy and quick. We had an issue with one of the AC units the first night that was promptly fixed. The cleaning staff were great. Highly recommend chef Kim’s services! He also helped us arrange transportation for a couple excursions. Of note the sargassum was pretty bad on the beach the first week of August. I’d been to Playacar in the past and the water was beautifulllll, so I was a bit disappointed with the sargassum. There are beach chairs and umbrellas with a wagon for use which was nice!

We enjoyed the house, which had everything needed to cook for 12 or more. Pleasant pool We liked the turtles coming to lay their eggs, but unfortunately they were very bothered by the abundant sargassum. It was a lovely stay with the family Thanks also to Maria for her kindness, availability, and efficiency.

House was great, small problem with one of the AC units but that was fixed right away. We stayed in the middle of July so the seaweed was bad but that’s no fault of the host. Overall a great experience!

Had a great stay! From the start, Juan was responsive and proactive about communicating. We were able to order items from Walmart in advance of our stay, and Juan and his team took care of accepting the order and putting everything away for us. Upon our arrival, a staff member greeted us to see if there was anything we needed. It felt very welcoming! Chef Kim was so nice and professional. He did grocery shopping for us and cooked most of our meals - which were quite honestly our favorite meals of the trip! The Villa itself is lovely and perfect for a large group. It’s just a quick taxi ride to 5th avenue and walkable to the ferry that takes you to Cozumel. There is also a beach that is a 2 minute walk down the road. Taxis are readily available through contacting the front gate and arrive in less than 5 minutes - even for a large group. 10/10 recommend!

We had a fantastic time at this villa! It was perfect- right on the beach and with a pool. We went with 8 adults and 4 children and had the best time here! We also loved Chef Kim. He made the most delicious food, and he catered to the kid's picky tastes too! Maria and the housekeeping team were great, and the gate attendants did a great job too! The house is right on the beach, and we were there when sea turtles lay eggs- one even laid on the property! It's also near amazing places to check out like Tulum, Akumal, and Cenote Azul. It was the best little spot. Thank you all so much!

The property was amazing! Very clean while maintained and organized. The host was extremely friendly and responsive to all of our concerns or questions. We definitely will consider returning.

Extremely comfortable and pleasant. It's definitely an amazing place to stay if you're traveling in a large group. Chef Kim is a must! The value for money of both the service and the accommodation in general is wonderful. As a personal recommendation for those who read this, make the most of all the amenities in the house. It really makes the difference between a nice house and one that is enjoyable.

Beautiful home and location

This place was awesome! Right on the beach, and the space matched the pictures (and then some). Host was super communicative and responsive. Overall great experience!

We went for a 50th birthday and had 11 guests. Chef Kim was great. We loved the location, private, right on the beach and walkable neighborhood. It was a lovely time and Juan was extremely responsive and helpful.

Excellent, comfortable house for 3 families with young children. The beds are super comfortable, and the service provided by Chef Kim is highly recommended. Juan was always attentive to everything. Definitely a recommended stay.

Beautiful surroundings. The neighborhood is divine. The house is nicer than in the photos. Juan recommended activities for us. It was better than being at home. Francisco helped us with the cleaning, and it was a real vacation! We relaxed in a wonderful house and in a beautiful setting. We'll be back next year!
