4BR villa in Tulum

Private 4-Villa Retreat w/ Pool in Tulum - Villas for Rent in Tulum, Quintana Roo, Mexico

I really liked the place and I love everything there

Me gusto mucho el alojamiento y me encanto todo lo que hay

We always stay with family here and always a great stay

The accommodation is excellent, it is a private and very nice place, my family and I had a super time, the pool is excellent, the villas the beds are very soft (I loved it). I think everything was excellent overall, my family loved it. I just don't know if because we arrived after the cyclone “Alberto” the villas smelled like humidity, but I think the smell was disappearing. And the internet didn't grab us, although we almost didn't need it because we were going from here to there. It was just that. So, I recommend the place 🤩

El alojamiento es excelente, es un lugar privado y muy agradable, mi familia y yo nos la pasamos súper, la alberca excelente, de las villas las camas son muy suaves (me encantó). Creo que en general todo fue excelente, a mi familia le encantó. Solo que no sé si porque llegamos después del ciclón “Alberto” las villas olían a humedad, pero creo que fue desapareciendo el olor. Y el internet no nos agarró, aunque casi no lo necesitamos porque andábamos de aquí para allá. Solo fue eso. Así que, recomiendo el alojamiento 🤩

I'm glad you had a great stay. Regarding the humid smell, you were correct that due to torrencial rain occurring for days before you checked in , the room had not been aired enough. We will make sure that doesn't happen again for future guests. Also due to the hurricane, the internet provider had issues that are now fixed and it is back to high speed internet.

Excellent accommodation. Very nice, comfortable and with everything you need for a good stay.

Excelente alojamiento. Muy bonito, cómodo y con todo lo necesario para una buena estancia.

Thank you for your review. It was great to see so many amazing motobikes stacked together and  protected  in our off- street car park,  with others arranged with my neighbour. I was very impressed with your  club and you  are welcome anytime. Cheers!

Great location,it has an oxx at 40 meters. Several bars within a 100 meter radius. A larger market at 200meters. Very good cleaning,provided all necessary support.

Ótimo localização,tem um oxxo a 40 metros. Vários bares em um raio de 100 metros. Um mercado maior a 200 metros. Limpeza muito boa,prestou todo suporte necessário.

Excellent villas, very clean and very well located.

Excelente villas, muy limpio y muy bien ubicadas.

Our group had an absolutely comfortable and amazing stay. The property was beautiful, fit our needs, and we were even able to rent bicycles that were already there before our arrival, to get around a lot quicker! Highly recommend for families and for those doing retreats!

The beginning part of my family’s stay was okay but towards the middle we started finding issues. For example, the washing machine was not working and the water pressure was not good. Ali (maintenance guy) came out and found that the water pressure was indeed not working due to a switch I had to manually switch on and off after my group was finished taking showers (very inconvenient) Ali had to order a part for that water pressure which was not going to get fixed during my family’s stay. The washing machine was also affected by this water pressure and after it was fixed (after a couple of times of me having to send a message saying it still did not work) I then had to manually hit that switch on before washing and off after as well as after everyone was done showering. Another issue was that the rules were to not walk inside with shoes but there were nail heads sticking up from the floor therefore unsafe to walk. Water leaked through ceiling the last 2 days.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused. Our silent pump has been repaired to again give excellent water pressure to all the 4 villas at the same time. The washing machine is working fine now and is a popular extra amenity free for guests staying here.

Amazing stay! We really liked the rooms… we will definitely be back!

Una estancia increíble! Nos gustó mucho las habitaciones… sin duda regresaremos!

Alicat Villas was an excellent  choice for our group. Alistar was always communicating with us giving recommendations of places to go and what activities happening at Tulum... greate experience.

Great place and the host was very helpful in helping us have a great time. Highly recommended!

We loved Alicat Vilas! We had a combined bachelor/bachelorette party with the largest group I’ve ever traveled with and Ali made the trip feel even smoother with great communication, recommendations and an amazing place to stay! They put us in touch with a great shuttle service that picked us up and dropped us off from the airport, cenotes, ruins and the beach. Some people in our party wanted to watch the Super Bowl and Ali sent us places we could go to watch in the neighborhood. It was a really amazing weekend and we would stay here again!

great place to stay with family or friends. These villas are comfortable and cozy and offer a lot of privacy for your group.

Book it! This place looks better than the pics.  Awesome location.  Clean and comfy for our large group. We loved our temporary pet kitty's. Made us feel right at home. Bonus the street vendor in front has some of the best food we had on our trip.  Walkable to great restaurants.  Looking forward to book again on a future trip.

My group came for a bachelorette party. We enjoyed the pool, took advantage of the private chef option, and enjoyed clean and spacious accommodations. We felt completely safe and walked all around the neighborhood enjoying the many bars and restaurants. Alistair was very responsive to any questions we had during our trip and gave us Great recommendations. We would love to go back in the future!

Very good place, there are several restaurants nearby, communication was always excellent, a recommended place to return to

Muy buen lugar, hay varios restaurantes cerca, la comunicacion siempre estuvo excelente, un lugar recomendado para volver

We loved the villas and loved Tulum! The La Veleta neighborhood is peaceful and good bars and food are nearby. My group of 8 all had a comfortable stay in the villas and enjoyed the pool and patios. We adored the property cats, Margarita and Ali - they are the sweetest. Alistair was an awesome host - we messaged before the trip and he helped with preparations, even going out of his way to get bike rentals secured for us when we arrived. He also was always super responsive, made himself available if we needed anything, and even greeted me on my birthday and New Year's during our stay. My only overall complaint is that the cleanliness of the inside of the villas could have been better. Other than that, thank you so much Alistair for all of the awesome recommendations on restaurants and places to go and for being so accommodating. I really appreciate all your help and responsiveness.

Alicat Villas is an amazing place to stay at, specially for a large group of people. Almost everything is as advertised and the communication was always very quick and accommodating. Highly recommended.

Alicat Villas we’re just as described! The villas are located in a very convenient location just walking distance from downtown Tulum. They are spacious, private, cozy, and are well equipped to meet your needs during your stay. The host was very helpful with recommendations to places to visit and transportation. The I definitely recommend this place for large groups or if you’re traveling with a partner.

Awesome place, great villas, amazing fournitures, cosy and nice, stylish and eco-friendly... The all package!

A very good place to stay, the pool is very nice, the rooms are very spacious and fresh

Muy buen lugar para hospedarte, la alberca muy agradable, las habitaciones muy amplias y frescas

Very nice, comfortable and private home. Great for large family. My family and I really enjoyed our stay here. We plan returning again in the near future.

Amazing service and quality recommendations. The place was exactly as pictured and everyone felt safe and happy with our stay. We were here for a bachelorette trip and felt like everything was close enough such as food/ transportation/ and adventures. Thanks for the great stay.

Everything was great. Spacious for big groups. My family enjoyed our stay.

This place was perfect for our large group. The location is amazing - literally right next door to a grocery store with so many other restaurant options as well. This place was exactly what we expected. Host also communicated very well. Would definitely return if ever in Tulum again

Amazing location, property, and host! Alistair has all the answers and recommendations you’d ever hope for and booked a personal driver to and from Cancun airport and a private chef that came to the villa - both for very reasonable prices. I highly recommend Alicat Villas given the local amenities and its perfect distance from the beach (not too close as to only get that touristy feel). This location felt very safe and gives you the perfect mix of true Mexican culture while living in luxury. The property is just a 10-15 minute taxi ride to the beach (which is much more touristy and overpriced), and is a block or two from several main roads and wonderful dining destinations. Can’t say enough about the trip we had and the villa is absolutely beautiful, spacious, and clean!

This place is so much better in person than the picture. You will not be disappointed. If you are driving there, just be cautious with the one-way streets. The two cats that has adopted the place are super chill. Parking is a tight squeeze for two cars but we made it work. The villas were extremely spacious, my entire party did not feel squished in said. The pool space is tight but definitely a great spot to relax in. There’s also a little store just 50ft from the entrance- definitely a life saver to have. It’s a little far from the shopping centers on the main streets but still close enough for a nice walk. I will definitely come back to this place

This place was amazing, the neighborhood had tons of great food and little hideaway places to eat. The taco stand right outside our house was a huge plus as well. Alistair was super easy to get a hold of and helped set up transportation and other fun recommendations and activities. It was a little further from the downtown area than I originally thought but still walkable or a super quick taxi. Overall it was a great stay for our large group and will be back again!

Good location if you want to be away from the ultra noisy and expensive areas of Tulum, but still be close to restaurants, shopping and just a short drive or 40 minute (fun) bike ride to playa! Cool space, perfect for big groups, very comfy beds!

Easy check in. Great location. Clean. Private separate spaces. Pool Clean. Comfortable Beds. Hot showers. Good lighting. Great communication. Highly recommend. A++ 10/10

Amazing host , Airbnb , and location !!! Great communication, super convenient location , clean and overall a great experience.. I would definitely recommend Alicat Villas !! One of the best airbnbs I’ve stayed in !!

FIVE STARS FOR ALICAT VILLAS! Alistair and Yareldi were able to provide not only a great stay, but also fantastic recommendations for drivers, places to go, etc. This location was perfect to host the bachelorette party. It was walking distance to great food, hookah, and drinks. There was literally a super convenient little store directly next door to the property. We definitely got our steps in with the stairs, but the entire vibe of the property felt very “Tulum” and peaceful. Highly recommend if you are considering this property for a large group!

We had an amazing time at Yareldi's place. It was perfect for a large group - great common spaces to hang out, with enough privacy to keep us from going crazy. La Veleta is the best part of Tulum, and our host gave us excellent recommendations.

Space was super convenient! It’s broken into four separate living spaces with their own bathrooms, and kitchen spaces. Perfect for a large group of friends, couples or families traveling together. Would absolutely recommend this place. It is also super close to great food and nightlife off the main strip but still walking distance to the main strip. All the vegan options are also near this area if that’s what you are looking for.

All perfect, just a little away from the beach and the taxi charges like 400 Mexican pesos to go to the beach area

Todo perfcto, solo un poco alejado de la playa y el taxi cobra como 400 pesos mexicanos para ir a la zona de playa

We had 11 people and plenty of room! It’s next to some moped rentals, and only a block from multiple places for good tacos, coffee and good dinner vibes! The host was wonderful and very communicative!

Alistair is a great host. Very informative and quick to respond

This little sanctuary was exactly what I was looking for to have my birthday with friends. All the separate villas offer your guest private spaces while  still feeling very much inclusive. The pool is definitely the  jewel, with its lovely hanging greenery. Yareldi was a great communicator he offered  a wealth of knowledge regarding the surrounding area, restaurants, menus and chef if you want for your group etc !! . We chose to literally hang poolside, and checked out many of the local bars and small restaurants! So awesome, even though we had a hurricane !  Property has a lot of heart.

The place is big and beautiful! Great location to many things. Our host helped us arrange shuttles and made great recommendations! The rooms have good a/c and plenty of room. We loved our stay!

We had a group of 13 (2 families with teenagers and young adults). We rented all 4 villas, and they were impeccably clean, built, everything worked, and so beautifully designed. The villas were more spectacular in person than in pictures -- which rarely happens. We had plenty of room and beds for everyone (2 free beds). The pool is a plus. We jumped in after our daily activity day trips—a nice way to cool off. The location was great. Next door, we had a small mini-market that had just about anything we needed. Then, down the street, we walked to the nearest local restaurants, local bars, and the food was delicious. There is even a laundromat where you drop off your clothes in the morning, and it's ready and folded for you by 6:30 pm (very inexpensive). We used the services a couple of times during our stay. It was such convenience and a full vacation mode for a great price. Alistar and Yareldi were incredible hosts, very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Our group forgot a few important personal items on the last day. Alistar shipped the items to us via DHL. He definitely went above beyond for us, making this experience spectacular. I can't recommend this place enough, and I look forward to coming back to Tulum and staying at this place again. We felt at home away from home. THANK YOU!!!

Awesome Airbnb, looks even better than the pictures! Only two things to notate, A/C is off before your arrive so rooms are really hot and take a while to cool down and the bathrooms have a funky smell possibly due to how humid the rooms gets but aside from that it’s a really awesome place to stay! Location is great, has a bodega in walking distance as well as a fantastic street taco vendor.  We would definitely stay again!

We could not find the smell in the bathrooms referred to by this guest and no have received no previous comments of this nature by past guests. We feel it came from outside - the neighbour had their sewerage pumped out which happens twice a year. Our strong split-system smart-inverter air-conditioning units take only 10 mins to cool each of our spacious Villas.. The

What an amazing stay! As soon as we walked through the gate, we felt like we were in an oasis all unto yourselves! We were a group of 11 and there was PLENTY of space. Walking distance to hyper-local eateries and just a short bike ride to the town of Talum. Our host was super accessible, knowledgeable and accommodating! He and his team helped to coordinate day trips, transportation, restaurant/bar recommendations, bike rentals, massages and even dinner in the villas next to the pool with a private chef and bartender! There isn’t anything they can’t do!

Host was extremely nice and very helpful! He assisted with booking all of our excursions. We did a private yacht tour which was absolutely amazing!! We booked a private chef to make us breakfast daily and it was fabulous! And each night we were able to book the most amazing masseuses to come to Airbnb to end our long days! Airbnb itself is clean and in a good area of Tulum. Definitely a great set up for large groups!

It was an amazing experience. Beach was horrible so we stayed mainly on the pool st times. kids loved the pool. It was great. I highly recommend it

This place was absolutely perfect for our group of 8! Everyone had plenty of room in the Villas, & the set up was perfect! Ali is very resourceful in assisting with transportation, excursions, chefs and is definitely a hands on host. Note, there are things that should be noted that occurred during our stay that were completely out of Ali's control but should be known. Keep in mind when booking that this is not a resort but someone's home and so essentially you are living like a local. 1) It rained heavy while we were there causing the pool to turn a greenish color so Ali had to drain and refill it. In doing so, something happened with the water system causing us to wake up with no running water for a few hours. Ali instructed us on how to fix the issue as quickly and swiftly as we could and it was back up in a few hours but was an inconvenience. 2) Because it stormed a lot it caused the power to go out. This isn't a resort so there was no generator or electric company to call. We just had to wait for the power to come back on which was about 10 hours. Again these are things that are completely out of Ali's control and it just comes with the experience. Overall my friends and I had an AMAZING time staying at this place! It felt safe and welcoming and I would highly recommend if you have a big group that you want to keep together :)

Our stay was incredible - the location was divine, the bnb was absolutely gorgeous, and Alistair helped us organize transportation and other things around Tulum! We will be back!!

Amazing AirBNB for a large group! The location is ideal and close to the center where there are restaurants/bars. Highly recommend to anyone planning on staying in Tulum. The host was also very helpful and always made sure we were taken care of. 10/10 recommend!

Great place to stay with a large group. had 12 people in my group. Don't miss the bakery next door, it has great fresh bread.

Alicat villas were incredible and better than what we expected. We rented all 4 villas and they were exactly how they were described. We had plenty of space inside and outside the villas. The host responded quickly to any questions we had and checked on us frequently during our stay. He was kind enough to order a few of us a cab and have it outside the door when we were ready to leave. The place is beautiful inside and out so many great photos from our stay there. The pool is a bit smaller than it looks on pictures but it was still a great amenity to have. Also, I love plants and there are so many all around the villa it made it just made everything more beautiful. Here’s a few things to keep in mind when staying there: 1- There is a cat on the property that is adorable and very friendly. We did not mind the cat we actually petted it and got acquainted but if you are allergic and do not want animals near by this may not be the place for you. Or you can speak with the host and maybe see what you can do. 2- The towels must remain on the property so if you plan on going to the beach make sure you bring your own. 3- Each villa has their own AC system. The green villa was the one that took the longest to cool down. My best advice would be to make sure the door is closed at all times to keep the air from getting out. I really don’t have anything bad to say we had a wonderful time at alicat villas . We will definitely revisit in the future. If you have a large group and don’t want to spend money on different properties or different locations I would suggest you go here. There is so much space in each villa and outside the villas. We had a group of 15 and had more than enough room.

This place is the absolute best for a group of friends. Spacious, cool with an awesome pool and great plants. Alistair did a great job communicating and helping us get our vacation going.

Worked out great for our birthday trip. Had 12 of us in all the villas, plenty of space, close access to everything.

Good facilities however poor location although it has all the amenities

Buenas instalaciones sin embargo mala ubicación aunque cuenta con todos los servicios

Si eres un anfitrión de Airbnb y estás leyendo esto, es posible que lo entiendas.  A veces, recibirá a los invitados con el mismo respeto y actitud de bienvenida que les ha dado a los invitados en el pasado.  Y luego, desafortunadamente, a veces, recibes invitados que no corresponden a esta actitud.  Le permitimos a este grupo un check in temprano y un check out tardío gratis, y abusaron de nuestra hospitalidad al dejar las villas en tal desorden que mi limpiadora me envió un video que mostraba su disgusto por cómo dejaron nuestra propiedad y para empeorar las cosas.  dio una puntuación de revisión baja que no tenía sentido.  Afortunadamente, esta experiencia es poco común y agradecemos a los huéspedes que abandonan nuestro Airbnb con el respeto que se merece dar una revisión justa mientras continuamos brindando un excelente servicio a los futuros huéspedes.

Came with a group of 10 for a very cozy stay at Alistair's villas. Everyone enjoyed their stay very much! Very clean, plenty of hot water, Bodega next door to grab any necessesities. Bnb is close to food and coffee shops a short walk away (a block). Area seems very safe although we made sure to stay locked up just in case. The villas are secure locked inside a fence with padlocked gate. Vehicle parked is also located inside padlocked gate. Host is extremely kind and accommodating. We accidently broke and table and he kindly worked with us to correct the situation. I would absolutely recommend The Alicats Villas! Note* if you're traveling to tulum plan whole days to hit the beach and shops on the beachside of town. Although its only 20 minutes away there's usually traffic that makes the ride closer to an hour and its difficult to find taxis willing to go. Also cost is usually about 30USD or more in the evening each way

Starting off by saying the property is HUGE. All the villas are very spacious and clean! Great for a huge group. And Alistair was a great host. Thanks for the hospitality! *** the cats in the property are a plus!

A very beautiful and clean place! Great for different families or groups of friends. The theme of the villa is amazing. We hope to return

Un lugar muy bello y limpio! Ideal para diferentes familias o grupos de amigos. La temática de la villa es increíble. Esperamos volver

Everything was excellent! The villas are very comfortable and spacious, they have all the amenities. Since check-in, we had excellent care, complying with the hygiene protocols. Alistair showed us his guidebook with recommendations for restaurants, locations, and interesting things to do. We were a group of 8 friends and we all want to go back. Highly recommended!!

Todo estuvo excelente! Las villas están muy cómodas y espaciosas, cuentan con todos los servicios. Desde la llegada tuvimos una excelente atención, cumpliendo los protocolos de higiene. Alistair nos enseñó su guía con recomendaciones de restaurantes, ubicaciones y cosas interesantes para hacer. Fuimos un grupo de 8 amigos y todos ya queremos regresar. Altamente recomendado!!

Alistair is a top tier host and the villas were lovely for our stay. We had a group of 7 and there was the perfect amount of space for all of us to make ourselves comfortable. Alistair helped us rent bikes and offered great recommendations. The beach and Tulum Centro are just a short cab or bike ride away. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

Awesome place, amenities nearby very private space! I loved staying here would definitely go back!!

Ali is a great host! The Villas accommodated our entire group of 10 and it was awesome to have our own villas while still allowing us to be together in one place.

This is BY FAR the best communication I’ve ever had with an AirBnB host. Alistair was always available for our every need. For example, the power went out when we arrived (it wasn’t his fault at all, totally random event) and he immediately tried to help. It was back on in 5 minutes and our awesome stay here began. The pool is lovely for those humid Tulum nights and the rooms are very spacious. We had a larger group and rented out the whole property, the location was great for us to be able to reach all the main attractions and there was plenty of space for us. All of the plants and vines growing over the villas made for some beautiful pictures, the property looks rather magical when it rains and the plants are extra green. We loved having our own kitchen to save money on food too. Check out his guidebook, he has some wonderful recommendations for places to eat!

The stay was different than expected. The inside of the appartements is nice. But they need a bit of work. The outside area is nice too but the chairs, tables and barbecue are a no go. Very cheap chairs and rust on the tables. The communication with the host was good but he came by two times without notice and stayed for a long time... (We booked the whole appartement and wanted more privacy) If you tell him not to come, he won't come. The appartements aren't really equipped for 16 people. We have been 12 and it was ok. We expected more for the price we paid and especially wanted more privacy! Tips and anything else from the host where really good! There are cats and you have too feed them. We had one allergic with us so it wasn't too nice that no one told us about the cats beforehand.

I am glad you enjoyed your stay and thank you for your feedback.  Regarding the standard quality plastic chairs, we find that only certain groups damage them and other groups don't, we don't know why however the ones damaged by your group have been replaced. The Weber BBQ continues to be very popular and well used by guests , although rust is an issue due to this environment and will be looked at. We respect our guests privacy and the clear messages giving times of arrival for specific scheduled maintenance  work seemed not to have been seen. We apologize for any misunderstanding. This listing is exclusive for guests , however cleaning staff and pool maintenance for a 10 day stay cannot be avoided if we are to maintain the excellent standards of reliability of utilities and cleanliness we have here at Alicat Villas. The presence of the mother and her two  very cute kittens, that seem to have adopted our property,  is stated in the listing information and generally enjoyed by our guests. At no time are they allowed into the villas by our staff, however we will look at making this information more visible for extreme cases such as yours. Feeding these independent animals  is entirely optional,  with food provided by Alicat Villas. I am glad that you found our local tips useful and  can be found in our Airbnb Local guide which gives updated information and recommendations mainly collected by guest feedback of our many new restaurants and bars appearing in  our upcoming neighbourhood of La Veleta.

Great communication, fun space, a short walk from a bunch of great food places. Also has a lot of local tips for activities a short drive away. Worked out very well for our large group of 16.

Alistair was a great host. The villa was much larger than I expected when looking at the photos, our group of 9 was very happy with the accommodation. I am very picky when it comes to hotel/airbnb beds - Alistair has very comfy, quality mattresses with great pillows. The washrooms were clean and spacious, waterfall shower heads with plenty of water pressure and temperatures to suit any personal preference. Kitchens were clean with new appliances and basic cooking accessories...We ended up making breakfast in the villas every morning after our first day in Tulum. The pool was great...Cool party lights and also very clean. Location is perfectly situated between Tulums main strip and beach area. Communication with Alistair was exceptional, he went above and beyond to accommodate all of our needs. Overall we had an great stay with Alistair. I would highly recommenced this villa for anyone looking to travel in large groups, and if traveling individually it would be a great villa to meet new people.

I am very pleased you all  had such a great time and also were able to  go  some of the excellent festivals Tulum has to offer here in January . It was a pleasure hosting you and hope to see you next year. :)

Celebrated NYE here with a group of 16. Alistair was great in sorting us out with anything we needed. Fun space that’s awesome for groups. Walking distance to the main street and a convenience store next door to the house which was a huge bonus

I stayed at Alistair’s place in Tulum with 13 people for my 30th birthday. His place was an amazing oasis for the celebration! The place was gorgeous and had enough space for us all to have privacy but also hang in the common area and pool. He was very communicative, helped us order shuttles and taxis, and even helped me hire a private chef to come to the house and cook for us. The place was walkable distance from the main road with amazing restaurants and bars and just a short taxi from the beaches, cenotes, and ruins. He had great recommendations and was available any time I contacted him. We had a fabulous time and would definitely return!

Great space, lots of consideration for eco-friendly practices so be prepared for that. Walking to the downtown area was a solid 15 minutes. Space was clean and comfortable and perfect for large groups and a fun time! Alistair was accommodating and helped with local tips and recommendations!

I loved the place, it's the same as the pictures and very clean. Many thanks to Alistair who was on the lookout for us to arrive well and for whatever we needed, he was always available to give advice or help with whatever. I definitely recommend that place.

Me encantó el lugar, es tal cual como en las fotos y muy limpio. Muchas gracias a Alistair quien estaba al pendiente para que llegáramos bien y para lo que necesitáramos, siempre estuvo disponible para dar consejos o ayudar en lo que sea. Definitivamente les recomiendo ese lugar.

4 separate villas. Lots of beds. Good kitchen. Off street parking. Good A/C, nice bathrooms, showers. Great for groups!

Original stay. Entire cabin in wood.  Good place to rest.  The pool is very nice

Hospedaje  original. Toda la cabaña en madera.  Buen lugar para descansar.  La alberca muy agradable

Alistair's place is very charming, cozy, and comfortable! Our large group felt very much at home. He was also very helpful with recommendations. Check-in and check-out were easy and convenient.

Our group of 8 had an excellent stay at Alicat Villas. The private pool was a favorite feature of the Villas which we used every day of our vacation and the location was ideal as we wanted to spend time in town and also at the beach (which was a sort drive or taxi ride away). Ali was an incredibly helpful host and provided local suggestions and  travel tips for the area. We would definitely come back to stay!

We just got back from my bachelorette at Alicat Villas and none of us wanted to leave! The house is amazing and the layout is perfect for having fun and hanging out with a bunch of people. We could easily walk into town about 10-15 minutes away but there were also taxis to everywhere else you could want to go. Alistair is in constant contact from the moment of booking. He helped us figure out shuttles as well as a variety of activities to do in the area including restaurant recommendations and day outings. Would definitely 10/10 recommend this place for a large group!

Alicat Villas was everything we needed to escape the bustling noise and craziness of our respective big cities. We came for seven days as a group of nine best friends, celebrating a birthday, and our host Alistair was accommodating, attentive and offered wonderful ideas for us since we are first time visitors to Tulum. The villas were clean and beautifully decorated. The wooden oasis really makes one feel like they’ve gone glamping in the best of accommodations. ACs are powerful and made for the most comfortable sleeping environment, the rooms are furnished with curtains that will make the villas feel like cool, dark caves, which is wonderful after you’ve been up till the wee hours with friends and need a little shuteye. A lovely cleaning lady came by twice while we were there and we needed for nothing. Add to that, there were some sweet little kittens just wanting to be loved. We will return, hopefully next year for our wedding and would love to make our second visit to Alicat Villas.

This air bnb is such a gem, and great for big parties. We booked this air bnb for my friends bachelorette and we couldn’t be more happy with the location. We had 8 girls and each of us had our own bed so this place can definitely hold big groups. The house was so aesthetic and beautiful. Alistair is a wonderful host and really cares about his guests experience. He gave us a lot of important information and helped us arrange taxis each time we wanted to venture out into the tulum hotel zone. The location is ideal for those who want to visit the tulum town, there is so much to see and do there. The house feels very safe and I felt right at home in the neighborhood. Can not wait to come back and visit this gem again

Super nice house, all spotless, excellent host, the only downside we had, the only downside we had was that the neighbors were bothered by the noise. Everything else excellent

Casa súper linda, todo impecable, excelente anfitrión, el único inconveniente que tuvimos fue que los vecinos se molestaron por el ruido. De todo lo demás excelente

He was extraordinary! Went above and beyond. Such an amazing place

Alicat Villas are EXACTLY as pictured, beautiful. Everything about our stay was magical. Alistair communicated well ahead of the trip with helpful tips and offered to assist with coordinating activities, catering, and transportation. With regards to transportation he also saved the day by organizing a last minute taxi for two friends who’s airport shuttle never arrived. Alistair made coordinating a large group easy on me so I could focus on enjoying the wonders of Tulum with my guests. The woman who comes to clean the house, Azucena, is thorough, respectful, and a delight. The fresh baby kittens were an extra perk.

We needed a house for a bachelorette party and this was the perfect place! All the girls loved the house and the pool in the center with the waterfall added a great touch for lounging and getting great pictures. We had so much fun! Alistair was a great host and helped answer all our questions as we planned our trip and during our stay. I’d highly recommend to other large groups traveling to Tulum!

Perfect place to stay, has all amenities and extras to make your stay very comfortable! Plenty of style to sleep in Tulum! Highly recommend!

Lugar perfecto para quedarse, cuenta con todos los servicios y extras para hacer tu estancia muy comoda! Mucho estilo para dormir en Tulum! Muy recomendable!

Best place ever! We expend a wonderful days at the villa and Alistar was very responsive and a wonderful host! Thank you so much for everything

Alistair and the Villas are top top notch.  I would highly recommend staying with him.  The Villas are amazing, beautifully constructed and in a great location to town.  Alistair as a host is one of the best I've had on airbnb.  Amazing communication, and he helped with every idea and question I had.  Definitely visiting again, thank you Alistair !  We had such a good time !!

Alistair was a great host and the Airbnb was very comfortable for the 8 of us staying. The only thing I would warn guests is about the construction next door which began very early in the day and was quite loud, however Alistair did mention that if we had told him about the construction sooner, he would have put a stop to the construction noises happening so early. The construction also lessened our privacy a bit but overall it was a great experience and out stay was very pleasant.

I apologise for the noise early in the morning which is against government by-laws. The construction is now finished,  with little consolation to Alissa that put up with illegal early construction work which I would have immediately stopped if I knew. It is disappointing especially since her group was enjoying the concert events  here until the early hours in the morning and only wanted a good sleep during the day. What is done is done and I´m glad Alissa and friends had a great time here despite this. I have had stern words with my neighbour who assures me it will not happen again.

We had an amazing time at Alistair's villas. The overall layout, design and size of the villas were very conducive for our party. Everyone had a very positive experience of the stay. Alistair was a very helpful host who provided guidance and info every step of the way. I highly recommend.

Alistair is a fantastic host and his hospitality made it stay a special one! The "compound" is really nice and thoughtfully laid out. It isn't expansive an, while very nice and very clean, I wouldn't call it luxurious. It's lovely, though, and we had a fantastic time. One minor nuisance: there is an irritating grating noise that sometimes comes from the property next door. Not the fault of our house but hopefully will be fixed by the time we return!

I am pleased to announce that the irritating grating noise next door has been eliminated. :)

Great value for a stylish stay, along with consistent communication from Alistair. We will 100% be returning in the future.

Alistair was GREAT. He gave us such a thorough introduction to the place, made lots of suggestions as to tourist spots, restaurants, etc. and was available immediately if we needed him. The place is beautiful! We rented the whole unit and had it to ourselves. The neighborhood was safe, the people were friendly and Alistair had bicycles available in case we wanted to take a ride. The location is awesome. I’d suggest a car for the beach and other tourist sites but you can walk 10 min or les to LOTS of restaurants and shopping. This space was an amazing value and Alistair is AWESOME!

Great house and location! Really relaxing jungle-treehouse themed villa, perfect for a large group - like a bachelor party or family trip - tucked away in a suburban area. 4 Spacious rooms surround the perfect little pool with its waterfall. Easy drive/cab to the ruins, beaches, town center, and restaurant row.

The villa is amazing, very beautiful decoration and very clean. I highly recommend this villa.

Beautiful place to go with a big group. Really recommend this place.

a complex not only beautiful but relaxing, ideal for group, I highly recommend washing the entire complex for comfort and privacy

un complejo no sólo bello sino relajante, ideal para grupo, recomiendo ampliamente rentar todo el complejo por la comodidad y privacidad

I went with 13 friends The house is nice!! I highly recommend it

Fui con un tipo de 13 amigos La casa está súper bonita!! La recomiendo ampliamente

The Alicat-Villas are perfect for Groups or single persons or couples as well: there are four independent apartments. The pool is in the middle. Alistair is a very nice and competent guy, who cares a lot about the wellbeeing of his guests. The apartments are fully equipped and very cosy because of the wood. the street is calm, but small distance to shops, maya ruins, beaches. I highly recommend the Villas and we will be back for sure:)
