We had an amazing stay at Casa de Sol. Our group consisted of three adults and five children aged 10–13, and the property met all of our needs exceptionally well. The pool was wonderful, and the lagoon access was a real highlight. The house was comfortable, well-equipped, and exactly as described. The location was fantastic. Being at the end of town made it quieter than staying in the centre, while still providing easy access to everything Akumal has to offer. We made great use of the bikes, cycling to the beach, exploring the area, and heading into town for dinner. Everything felt very safe. We were welcomed by the owner, who was warm and accommodating. Alex, the concierge, was outstanding throughout our stay, helping with recommendations, bookings, transportation, and rental cars. The housekeeping and laundry staff were also excellent and made us feel genuinely welcome. This was one of those rare Airbnb experiences where everything the listing promises turns out to be true. We th

Thanks so much for the wonderful feedback, James! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay, and we hope you return to Casa del Sol soon! Happy travels! :)

There were 10 of us for a 50th birthday party and the house was absolutely ideal and exceeded expectations. The lagoon was gorgeous (tip - go early or late as it does get busy but that isn't a bother when your hanging around the house as it is just far enough away to give you privacy) The outdoor living area was so perfect, people can be in the pool, playing cards, in the kitchen and all still feel like your together. The beds were comfortable, washrooms clean, everything worked and the staff were so kind. Trip of a lifetime!

Thanks so much for the wonderful feedback, Myki! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at Casa del Sol, and we hope you return to Akumal soon! Happy travels! :)

Thank you so much for a fantastic stay at Casa Del Sol! In every aspect the home and location exceeded expectations. Besides the amazing home having Yal Ku Lagoon in the backyard was a once in a lifetime experience!! We all wanted to stay longer. 🏝️💖☀️

Thanks so much for the wonderful feedback! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay, and we hope you return to Akumal soon! Happy travels always!  Akumal Direct

The house is spectacular and is very well located, a short walk from the lagoon and with easy access by bicycle to Akumal beach. Scott was always attentive, helping us at all times with logistics, which made our stay even more comfortable. Several times we asked for the food service offered by Ovidio and his wife: everything delicious and with a quality that far exceeds the nearby restaurants, whose prices are usually quite high. A great touch was also the complimentary beers in the fridge, which we really appreciated when we arrived. As the only point to improve, the house does not have a dishwasher or washing machine. Otherwise, everything was a 10. Highly recommended!

La casa es espectacular y está muy bien ubicada, a un paso de la laguna y con fácil acceso en bicicleta a la playa de Akumal. Scott estuvo siempre atento, ayudándonos en todo momento con la logística, lo que hizo nuestra estancia aún más cómoda. Varias veces pedimos el servicio de comida que ofrecen Ovidio y su esposa: todo delicioso y con una calidad que supera ampliamente a los restaurantes cercanos, cuyos precios suelen ser bastante altos. Un gran detalle fueron también las cervezas de cortesía en la nevera, que apreciamos mucho al llegar. Como único punto a mejorar, la casa no cuenta con lavavajillas ni lavadora. Por lo demás, todo fue de 10. ¡Altamente recomendable!

Muchas gracias, Thomas! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaron de la casa, la ubicación y el servicio de Scott, Obidio y Merily. Además, Merily ofrece servicio de lavandería por una pequeña tarifa y cada mañana tambien se encarga del lavado de los platos, para que puedan relajarse al máximo. Será un placer recibirlos nuevamente! Feliz viaje :)

Casa del Sol was perfect for our family vacation-the open space and access to the lagoon is truly wonderful. Merily and Ovidio are absolutely great , they cleaned and cooked for us which made our stay truly relaxing. We will definitely be back!

Thanks so much for your kind words, Olivia. It was a pleasure to host your group at Casa del Sol. We hope to see you back in Akumal again soon! Happy travels always, Akumal Direct

Jam Greatful Dead and hang out under the stars. Quiet and beautiful, good for a big group.

Amazing house and grounds. Pictures don’t do it justice. Lagoon is unreal

Thanks so much for the wonderful feedback, Birkin! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay, it was a pleasure hosting you. We hope you return to Akumal soon! Happy travels always!

Our most favorite Air B and B stay yet.  We loved the house and the surroundings. Obidio and Meryl were so helpful and kept the place very clean!

Thanks so much for the feedback, Kellie! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and we hope you return to Akumal again soon! Happy travels always! Akumal Direct

We had a fantastic friendcation with 11 ladies. We loved everything about the house --the lagoon, the pool, the communal areas. Having a kitchen accessible to the pool is especially wonderful. Obidio and Mary, the caretakers of the house, are very friendly and cooked us six fantastic meals. From top to bottom this was a great experience and we look forward to coming back.

Wonderful! Thanks so much for choosing Akumal as your vacation destination, Diane! It was lovely to host you. We hope to see you back again soon. Happy travels always, Akumal Direct

Our favorite place in all of Mexico. Absolutely beautiful in every way. The host was super accommodating and we had the most amazing experience. Thank you, thank you so much!!

Thank you so much for your feedback, Paul! We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to your return :)

From the onset of placing our reservation the communication was excellent. Clear check in instructions were provided, and upon arrival the place was spotlessly clean and inviting. Scott, one of the property hosts, came to meet us and help out with any of our special requests like bike and golf cart rentals. All further questions, throughout our stay, he quickly responded to via text or phone. Very helpful and friendly. We felt very welcome! The house and grounds were kept spotlessly clean throughout our stay. The housekeepers were also very friendly and Fantastic cooks! We ordered a dinner for our last night that was Amazing! The fish was some of the best we’d ever had! The house is spacious and has many different areas to hang out in so was great for our group. The grounds were lovely, the pool perfect after a swim/snorkel in the lagoon. The palapa area, a wonderful spot to hang out and watch the Iquanas. Would love to stay here again😊

Nice place for a family stay. Good common areas with private rooms/areas as well. Backyard and outdoor kitchen were very nice.

Thanks so much for your comments about your stay at Casa del Sol, Jackson.  We are so happy that your family enjoyed your vacation.  It was lovely to host you.  We hope to see you back in Akumal again soon.  Happy travels always, Akumal Direct

We had a lovely time at the property. Akumal Direct is an incredibly professional, responsive, and helpful company and they made all the logistics and planning so convenient. Big thank you to them for their thoughtfulness and enabling us to have the perfect vacation. The property is in a wonderful area and was immaculately kept. Will definitely look to come back again!

Thank so you much for your kind words, Terrance! It was such a pleasure to host your group. Our guest's experience is very important to us. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Casa del Sol! If you wish to return do mention you have stayed with us before. We are always thankful for our current and returning guests! Happy travels always, Akumal Direct

We had an incredible time with our friends at Casa del Sol. Obidio's food is amazing and he and his wife were both very friendly.  David the concierge was also great to work with for setting up activities and very responsive. The location is beautiful and the private access to the lagoon is great. Though there are tons of tourists in the lagoon during the day, there's also a buffer so that you don't feel like they're able to see into the house backyard at all. This is our second time at Casa del Sol and we will be back!

Thank you so much for your kind words about your stay at Casa Del Sol. The staff Obidio and Merily are a treasure. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your meals! It is also nice to know that you enjoyed our concierge services and the property. We will look forward to hosting you again soon.  Happy travels always, Akumal Direct Reservations

The first wake up was a wonder! At the end of the garden, a small dock takes you in the middle of nature, surrounded by birds, fish and iguanas. The environment is really sublime. The house is huge and very pleasant. We particularly enjoyed the small bathroom on the roof top. So exotic! Obidio and Merily were lovely. A small suggestion: blackout curtains in bedrooms. Thanks for the fabulous stay

Le premier réveil était un émerveillement! Au bout du jardin, un petit ponton vous amène en pleine nature, au milieu des oiseaux, des poissons et des iguanes. L’environnement est vraiment sublime. La maison est immense et très agréable. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié la petite salle de bain sur le roof top. Tellement dépaysant! Obidio et Merily ont été adorables. Une petite suggestion: des rideaux occultants dans les chambres. Merci pour ce fabuleux séjour.

Thank you, Amelie, for taking the time to share your wonderful experience at Casa del Sol. It was a pleasure to host you. We hope to see you back in Akumal again soon! Happy travels always, Akumal Direct Reservations

Amazing house and location! It had plenty of space for our large family. The lagoon does not disappoint, it's like swimming in an aquarium (the picture of the bridge you see in the listing is directly connected to the backyard, so very easy access). Rent or bring life jackets and snorkel gear. The outdoor living space and kitchen were very useful. The housekeepers were excellent and kept the house and pool very clean. It was great value for the money too. Survived Hurricane Grace with nearly no damage!

Thanks so much for choosing Akumal and Casa del Sol as your vacation destination, Nick!  It was lovely to host your group.  We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay.  We hope to see you back in Akumal again soon.  Happy travels always, Akumal Direct Reservations

Excellent place, very spacious areas, exclusive decoration. Unbeatable cleanliness and service. Highly recommend for large families, We had a great time.

Excelente lugar, espacios muy amplios, decoración exclusiva. Limpieza y atención inmejorable. Muy recomendable para familias grandes, La pasamos muy bien.

Hola Gustavo! Gracias por sus amables palabras sobre su estadía en Casa del Sol. Estamos muy contentos de que haya disfrutado de su tiempo en la casa. Fue un placer acoger a su grupo. Esperamos volver a verte pronto!  Saludos, Akumal Direct Reservations

Very beautiful location! Just amazing lagoon and territory! The owners that will repair and renew everything quickly if needed :) Some things need to be update but I think this is the question of the time. Thank you for everything, guys! Will be back.

Excellent place, the location with access to the Lagoon is a paradise

Excelente lugar la ubicación con acceso a la Laguna es un paraíso

Thank you so much for your lovely comments about your stay at Casa del Sol. It was a pleasure to host your group. We are so happy that you enjoyed easy access to beautiful snorkeling at Yalku Lagoon. Indeed, the location is paradise!  Looking forward to your next visit. Happy travels always, Akumal Direct Reservations

While we had issues due to a hurricane hitting when we were first checking in and loss a water a few times, it's a wonderful home.  It's lovely for a group, and i would stay again!

Thank you for choosing Casa del Sol for your vacation, Misha!  We are pleased to learn the property worked well for your group despite the storm.  Our biggest compliment is that you wish to return.  It was lovely hosting you.  We will look forward to seeing you back in Akumal soon.

Thank you for your lovely comment, Jeff! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We will look forward to hosting you again in the future. Happy travels always, Akumal Direct Reservations

A wonderful place for a family vacation.  We were 8 adults, 3 young children and a baby.  It is exactly like the pictures. A very beautiful yard. The staff are wonderful and we hired them to cook for us 3 nights.  All great. Cheaper than eating out and plenty of food. The shrimp ceviche, grilled shrimp, and fajitas were amazing!  Mucho Gracias! The snorkeling was fun. Go before 9:00 or after 4:00 to miss tourists. If it is calm go beyond the boys.  We didn’t eat out at all so can’t comment.  The Akumal Bakery has really good homemade ice cream. I would recommend buying your groceries in Playa before heading to Akumal.  There is a general store and an OXXO but they have limited stock.  All in all a beautiful location and home!

Thank you so much for your kind words about your stay at Casa del Sol! We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We appreciate your kinds words about the service you received from the staff. They're a gem! We appreciate you choosing Akumal, Mexico as your vacation destination. We hope to see you again soon.  Akumal Direct Reservations

We loved Casa Del Sol, beautiful home and access to the lagoon was a treat.  Definitely take advantage of Obedio's meals!  We would definitely come back!

Thank you so much for staying with us, Soleil! We do appreciate your comments and praise for Obidio and his cooking. We will look forward to hosting you again in the future. Thanks for being such a lovely guest. Happy travels always! Akumal Direct Reservations

What a fun house to stay in! So colorful! We had 9 people and there was plenty of space. The house is sprawling. The mattresses were firm but comfortable which I like. The kitchens are fully stocked. There were large bottles of filtered water in each of the kitchens which was fantastic. We used the outdoor kitchen the most which was so cool. Having private access to the lagoon saves time and money (I think $14/person/day). The palapa with hammocks was a favorite spot. The on site couple (Obidio and Merily) clean everyday and will cook for a price which we did for dinner one night and it was delicious! Marcia (with Akumal Direct) is extremely warm and responsive when asked questions about the house, places to order groceries to be there upon our arrival or excursions. There is a safe in the main bedroom. Thank you Akumal Direct for the good times! We hope to return one day!

Thank you so very much for your kind comments about your group's stay at Casa del Sol.  We are so pleased that everyone enjoyed the time spent in Akumal.  It was such a pleasure to host such a fabulous group!  We do hope that when vacation time permits that you will consider returning to Akumal!  Happy holidays and all the best for the New Year!  Akumal Direct Reservations

Casa del Sol is a great place for a family get together. Lots of space inside and out. Private pool, outdoor massage shower, and private access to lagoon with great snorkeling. Ovidio and Merilee keep the place exceptionally clean inside and out. And they are great cooks! They cooked several traditional meals for us to enjoy in the comfort of Casa del Sol. There are also great restaurants in easy walking distance. Beach access is a five minute walk.  We highly recommend Casa del Sol.

Thank you, Mary Ann and Neil!  We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Casa del Sol.  We agree Obidio and Merilee are wonderful cooks!  They have been with the house for many years so they are well trained in guest service.  We appreciate your recommendation!  What a great compliment!  We hope to host your group again in the future.  We appreciate you choosing Akumal, Mexico as your vacation destination!

Amazing home in a wonderful, charming town.  Yal-ku Lagoon is a beautiful place and when it is yours to explore on a daily basis, you really couldn't be luckier.  The hospitality of Obidio and Merilee at the casa, as well as the incredibly kind and gracious people of Akumal, made this a very special vacation.

Thank you so much for your lovely review of your stay at Casa del Sol and Yalku lagoon here in Akumal!  We are so pleased that you enjoyed the staff Obidio and Merilee!  They are kind and wonderful people who are on-site to please!  We are very proud of them.  We appreciate you choosing Mexico as your vacation destination and hope to see you again soon.  Thanks so much for staying with us!  Happy travels always, Akumal Direct Reservations

Wonderful place with lots of space to enjoy!

The house is amazing, such a fun place to stay. We loved the local restaurants (especially La Buena Vida), and snorkeling in the lagoon (after 5PM) was amazing. Highlight of the trip! Definitely worth the time of getting down there.

Thank you so much for your kind words about your stay at Casa del Sol! We are so pleased that you enjoyed the villa, our area restaurants, and Akumal's crown jewel, Yalku lagoon for snorkeling. It would be a pleasure to host your group again in the future. Thanks for choosing the Maya Riviera for your vacation destination! Happy travels always, The Staff at Akumal Direct Reservations

We loved the property and the gracious hosts!  Snorkeling was fabulous.

We loved hosting you, Jacqueline! We are so pleased to hear you've had a lovely stay in Casa del Sol and you've enjoyed the service you received. Thank you very much for staying with us and choosing Akumal's Yalku Lagoon as your vacation destination. We hope to see you again soon :)

Casa del Sol is recommended for groups for its spacious spaces that lend themselves to coexisting both on the ground floor (with open kitchen) and in the closed living room upstairs (with another kitchen and TV). The private access to the Yal-Ku lagoon is a major plus. It allows swimming and snorkeling before tourists arrive. Obidio and Meriyl are very thoughtful and provide perfect service. We also enjoyed a very delicious dinner that they had prepared.

Se recomienda la Casa del Sol para grupos por sus espacios amplios que se prestan para la convivencia tanto en la planta baja (con cocina abierta) como en la sala cerrada arriba (con otra cocina y tv). El acceso privado  a la laguna Yal-Ku es un plus importante. Permite nadar y esnorquelear antes de que lleguen los turistas. Obidio y Meriyl son muy detallistas y brindan un servicio perfecto. Disfrutamos también de una cena muy rica que ellos habían preparado.

Muchas gracias por estar con nosotros en Casa del Sol. Realmente apreciamos sus amables comentarios. Será un placer darle la bienvenida de regreso a la casa en el futuro. Mejor siempre.

Words can't even begin to describe this magical place...from the moment you walk in the doors you are transported to another world! The place is immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. Around every corner is something new to discover! Our favorite spot was the outdoor living area and kitchen where we had some of the best meals of the trip prepared by Obidio! The grounds are so amazing and we loved crossing the private bridge to snorkel in Yal Ku where we saw literally thousands of beautiful fish! This place is heaven on earth...we will definitely be back!!!

Hi Kristy,  Thank you soo much for your kind words :) We are delighted to hear you've had such a magical stay at Casa del Sol and we cannot wait to have you back. We will pass your comments onto Obidio. Repeat guests can also request a discount for a future stay so please don't forget to ask. Thank you again for staying with us and we hope you have a wonderful year :)

This home is very spacious, nicely decorated, with two well equipped kitchens (our family of 8, all adults, prepared at least 1 meal per day with plenty of fridge, freezer space and dishes, silverware, and cookware) for 9 days.  The bedrooms were all air conditioned  and great rooms and outdoor living areas were comfortable with overhead fans.  Marilee and Obidio, the daily staff, were helpful and kept the home very clean.  The property, garden, and back yard were so cool and private, eclectic, and natural.  There is a nice swimming pool, plenty of space to sunbath, a palapa for shade, walkways and meandering paths. But, the very best part of the Casa del Sol is the backyard access to the most magical Yal-Ku Lagoon.  Birds, iguanas, lizards, can be seen everywhere above the water and the fish under the water will take your breath away!  Snorkeling as soon as we woke in the morning was a favorite, as was the late afternoon evening, to watch the pelicans fishing within several yards of where you're snorkeling.  We saw over 20 different varieties of fish, some amazingly colorful!

Thank you, Wendy for your lovely feedback.  It was a pleasure to have your group as our guests.  We appreciate your kind thoughts.  Casa del Sol is a very unique and special home.  Your comments are greatly appreciated.  Thank you, again for staying with us.

A magical experience. The scenery and back yard area is more beautiful than the pictures show. The rooms and bathrooms are clean, well equipped, large and have great AC. The indoor and outdoor kitchens are more than adequate, as well. But the lagoon in the back is priceless—amazing snorkeling, refreshing and easy to get to. This villa is unique in the best way possible! Run...don’t walk to book this house.

Hi Diana,  Thanks so much for the lovely comments :) We're delighted to hear you had a nice stay in Casa del Sol and we hope to see you back soon!! Akumal Direct Reservations team

Fantastic house! Loved it! The hosts are very communicative and accommodating... would definitely come back 

HI Brandon! We are happy to hear you had a wonderful stay with us and we look forward to having you again :) Saludos, ADR Team

This house is amazing! There are so  many cool features to this home, it's hard to know where to start.  One of the best features is the lagoon to snorkel in... there is free access to one of the best snorkeling areas I have ever been in, and I've snorkeled all around the Caribbean.  There are so many areas to hang out, like the amazing roof top deck to watch the sunsets, the palapa hut with hammocks hanging from it, the outdoor kitchen area, and of course the lagoon.  The house is kept immaculately clean by Obidio and his wife Merill.  They clean it every day!  Obidio is also a great cook, and we had him cook 2 dinners for us, which were amazing.  I can't say enough about how  much we loved staying here!  We will be back!

Hi Lori!  Thank you very much for your feedback. We are happy to hear you had a wonderful stay at Casa del Sol and we look forward to having you again! Please do not forget to ask for 5% return guest discount if your future plans bring you back to Akumal :)  And we'll definitely forward the note about the golf car rental to the owner! That would be a great complimentary feature :)  Have a wonderful weekend.  Zan
