Casa Magica-Beachfront Villa Akumal w/Chef incl. - Villas for Rent in Akumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico

10/10! My family of 10 (6 adults, 4 kids) had a great stay at Casa Magica. Plenty of privacy, relaxation, and service to make it feel like a true vacation. Chef Martin & Gabby were amazing! Real friendly and family oriented. Had exceptional service and great food, 5star! Would highly recommend. Definitely looking to use their services again! Communication is key. Be sure to communicate any additional needs or deposit inquires daily. Bring water shoes! Shoreline is rocky and the sargassum was bad during our stay. Nothing you can do, just be mindful of the time of year. All-in-all, we had a great time and would stay here again!

Thank you for your great review Westin. It was our pleasure to host you. We hope you come back soon. For future guests information, there is a note on the listing 'Please note that this region and the area of your villa may be affected by shifting seasonal currents and weather patterns causing an influx of seaweed at the beach!' So guests are aware of the potential during their stay. The Akumal Villas Team

This AIRBNB is one of the best. The absolute stand out was chefs Martin and Gabi. The food was better than a 5 star resort, certainly the highlight of our trip! The area was affected by sargassum while we were there, but the pool and setting were ideal. We loved our stay and would highly recommend.

Aubrey, Thank you so much for your feedback. We are pleased to hear you had a good time. We have informed management about the top to be.

This was the perfect set-up for our crew of 8 adults / 5 kids. We would absolutely return to the same villa! - Great layout, comfortable and clean rooms. - Communication (Gustavo) was great, and accomodated requests like extra cribs, high chairs, etc with no issue. - Cleaning (Reina) and maintenance (Marcos) were excellent. - Meals (Gaby) were fantastic. - Setting up any extras (shopping transportation, airport shuttles, massage, groceries) was very easy and fair. Our only notes (not criticisms, just to be aware): - The pool isn't heated. It warms up well in the sun so non-issue for us, might be chilly in colder seasons. - Groceries are paid in cash. The structure is a deposit and then top-ups as needed. We figured the deposit was an estimate for the week and so didn't budget enough extra cash for the top-ups. Everything is backed up with receipts so we had no issue with the top-ups, just a note to bring LOTS of cash as we were quite low by the end.

We had such a lovely time at Casa Magica! If you can believe it the house is even more beautiful than the pictures show. Our chefs Gabi and Gabi were incredible, their cooking was delicious. My 1.5 year old really liked the younger Gabi and would run over to her to get picked up every morning it was so heartwarming! Marcos set us up with an amazing cenote tour with his brother and Reina was so kind and kept the house looking great. Being right on the beach with relatively little foot traffic was so dreamy. I’m already looking forward to next year!

Hi Kira, Thanks for your great review. We will delighted to host you again next year! The Akumal Villas Team

The entire on-site staff was fantastic. Gabby our chef, Marcos who tended to the grounds, and the maid Reina. All so friendly. Food was delicious all week long.

Thank you Mark for your great review. It was our pleasure to host you!

We enjoyed our stay.  It’s a very private, peaceful location.  Unfortunately, due to the time of year, the beaches were not usable due to the sargassum seaweed.  Enjoyed the chef service and Reina cleaned the facilites daily.  The only negative that i could attribute to the house is the WiFi.  It wasn’t reliable.  However, everything else was perfect.

Thanks for that feedback Vernon and 5 star review. The sargasso is affecting the whole area of the Riviera Maya at this time, the caretaker is taking care of it as best he can. We will check the WIFI connectivity to make sure there are no issues for future guests. Hope you come back soon.

Casa Magica was such a beautiful spot for our extended family to stay! There was plenty of room for our crew to spread out and have separate sleeping spaces along with common areas big enough for everyone to be comfortable. It was amazing to have our own pool as well as being right on the ocean. We loved having Gabriella and Juli cook for us! It fully allowed us to rest and soak in all the aspects of vacation! Marcos and Reyña also took such good care of us keeping us in fresh towels and fixing any repairs along the way. We loved our time!!

Thank you Emmalee for your feedback, we are so pleased to know you had a lovely time.  Come back soon!

We had an amazing time at Casa Magica, celebrating multiple 40th birthdays! The house was very spacious & clean and the separate casita was perfect for the small family in our group. It was a dream spending our days drifting from pool to beach. The house staff were incredibly kind and accommodating—Gaby and Camilla kept us well fed with their delicious meals (some faves: chilaquiles, tuna sashimi, lime soup, and shrimp stuffed avocado) and nightly dessert celebrations; Reina helped with a load of laundry for some of us continuing our vacations; Marco cut down some fresh coconuts & told us about a nearby cenote; and Gustavo helped answer all our questions. We also had a relaxing yoga morning with Sofia and ventured to the ruins with Javier, ending with some snorkeling in a cenote. How to go about paying for meals was unclear in advance (just that we would have to), but we worked it out! Overall the location and trip was absolute MAGICA! Can’t wait to return.

Thank you Sabrina! Hope you come back again.

Our stay at Casa Mágica was glorious from start to finish. The house is more spacious than the pictures show and our family of 11 (9 adults and 2 kids) shared lots of beautiful moments together as well as ample space to not feel crowded. Fan favorites were the bed swing, sunrise from the beach chairs and stargazing from the roof. The architectural touches were a special touch and there are many nooks and comfy places to relax throughout the property. We enjoyed kayaking in the sea from our beach. We are glad we brought swim shoes because the beach is rocky. Gabby and Bullmaro were an extraordinary treat in the kitchen with their sweet presence and delicious meals. The salsa verde and salsa matcha are still raved about. They decorated for our birthday celebration and made fresh lobster and a tres leche cake. 🩵 We lost power for a day which ended up not being a big deal. We also enjoyed massages by the pool on our last day which was coordinated by Gustavo, the property manager.

Thank you for your feedback, Ahlea. We will be happy to host you any other time!

Beautiful Place with wonderful people working to make sure we had everything. Best part was having are own Chef Martin, Gardner Marcos and our house keeper Reyna. Would definitely recommend to everyone planing our next vacation back soon!

Thank you Maribel, we are glad to hear you loved the villa. Hope you come back soon.

We had a great time at casa magica with our family of 6 adults and 4 kids. I highly recommend chefs Martin and Gaby as their food is delicious and they made everything easy for us! Some standouts were the fish ceviche, the chicken mole and possibly best cheeseburger I ever had. Marcos and Reina also helped us with everything we needed. We went on a tour with Marcos brother who took us to Tulúm ruins and atv rides to snorkeling in beautiful cenotes. The home is closely situated to a restaurant called jungle fish which has a fun vibe! We also enjoyed yolha and burns vida which were fun restaurants a short car ride away. We also went snorkeling at yalku which is also a short car ride away and had beautiful fish! Overall we had a great stay at casa magica and would definitely come back!!! Jesse

There will always be modern, trendy looking homes popping up as rentals, however this one is a gem with a Spanish style and decorations that will never get dated. The photos were accurate, the place was private and the house was clean. Having the chef was the cherry on top. We had Chef Martin and his wife and they were wonderful. We stayed in the middle of April, the seaweed was abundant and the water was choppy. However, Marco cleaned up the seaweed behind the house the day after we arrived. We even had a pop in from property manager Gustavo just to welcome us and say hello. By accident I called the owner and he was just as friendly even helping us navigate how to clean out a sea urchin wound. Overall 5 stars.

We spent a week at Casa Magica with 3 other couples for my husbands 40th-I can’t say enough great things about it! Chef Martín was AMAZING! Easy to text with, bought anything we needed from the store, every meal was a literal chefs kiss! The house was clean and surrounding yard taken care of, beds are cozy, plenty of filtered drinking water. The ocean directly in front of the house has a lot of coral so water shoes are a good idea, but about 40 feet to the right there are less rocks/coral, more sand. The entire trip was perfection- we all can’t wait to take our families back!!

Our family of 7 loved our stay! Lovely accommodations and the perfect spot for a relaxing vacation. Highlights were the fabulous  chef service, the endless bean bags and beds outside for reading and sunning, and the close proximity to things to see and do on those few days we left the house. We visited ruins on two of our days but beyond that, felt no need to leave. If you looking for a quiet stay and recharge, within driving distance to activities, this is your house.

This villa is a definite 5-star gem! It provided the best vacation experience one could imagine for the price. Every aspect of the villa was designed for comfort, with every possible amenity at our fingertips, including paddle boards which were a delightful surprise. The cleanliness level was impeccable, deserving a solid 5-star rating on its own. We didn't encounter any issues during our stay, which speaks volumes about the management and upkeep of the property. The management was exceptionally helpful, addressing all our queries and ensuring our stay was seamless. The villa exceeded our expectations in every way, offering more than what was described on Airbnb. Its luxury, combined with the attentive service, made our family vacation unforgettable. I wholeheartedly recommend this villa to anyone looking for an exceptional stay in Mexico. It's not just a place to stay; it's a destination that enhances your vacation experience.

Rinat, thank you for your nice review, we are happy to hear you had a great time.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The space was perfect for ten adults. The beds and outdoor furniture were very comfortable. Jade bay is beautiful and super relaxing. Loved everything about our stay!

Tara, thank you for your review, we are happy to hear you had a great stay.  Come back soon!

We had a great stay here! Loved that there was access to the beach and the house had lots of comfortable outdoor seating. All the rooms were comfortable, had all had en-suite bathrooms with was awesome. Location was great and there were a few bars and restaurants that were walkable. We would stay again!

The beach, the pool, the rooms,  the service (daily) - absolutely perfect!  You cannot underestimate the value of the care and service we received!  Casa Bonita has everything you could ever want for a private and quiet retreat with friends and family.  Prepare to drive to restaurants and attractions, even though some nice restaurants are not far.  Take the need to stock (food, etc.) seriously - we found "Super Aki" (in Tulum) the best store.  Definitely book the chef for a night or two - the best meals we had the whole time in the Yucatan!  I can't overemphasize how wonderful it was to have Reina look after our group every morning - with 8 of us, we got a brand new start each day with clean "everything"!  The kitchen had an interesting collection of pans, but we made it work.  You'll feel remote here, even though there are dwellings and people on both sides and walking up and down the beach.  For us, that was a good thing.  Thank you Casa Bonita!

Days of fabulous rest, in a home full of amenities, away from the noise by the dreamy sea. The cleaning and hosting partners, very good

Días de fabulosos de descanso, en una casa llena de comodidades, lejos del ruido junto al mar de ensueño. Los colaboradores de limpieza y anfitrión, muy buenos

Gracias por tus comentarios Montserrat, nos complace saber que pasaron buenas vacaciones!

Casa Magica was perfect for our group trip!  The house is spacious ,beautiful and relaxing, just as pictured. The pool was perfect and you're footsteps from the beach.  We saw sea turtles hatching or nesting every evening.  All of the staff were so nice and attentive.  We had amazing chef service from Adriana and Rodrigo, they were such a lovely addition to our stay! Would love to come back!

Amazing location and plenty of space for eight adults to vacation comfortably. The staff was attentive and friendly, the concierge service was excellent, very organized and easy to communicate with. A few things to consider when you’re planning your visit, there’s no dishwasher, the grill requires charcoal and the showers water pressure is not great. Solid house in a beautiful place.

Can’t say enough all of my friends are still talking about it!

We loved casa Magica! Great space and amenities. Everyone was fantastic from tending to the yard to cleaning everyday. Thank you for a great trip!

We had an amazing stay. The host staff, Marcos and Reyna were amazing. The place was alaways spotless. We had an issue with the stove and the whole stove was replaced within 24 hours. Highly recommend the chef option. Emilio Talancon and Esteban were amazing chefs, local seafood and meals were amazing. Kid friendly options. Pool and beach as advertised and kids spent about 8 hrs per day between the two. 15 min walk into town. Also restaurant about 2-3 min walk down beach.

Akumal Villas - Casa Magica was a lovely place. Small pool in the backyard, yet plenty of room for 4 kids to play in endlessly. 20 feet from the pool to the beach. I you don't mind about a half mile walk along the beach, you can get to Akumal Beach where you must pay to play, but there is better snorkeling there, along with some beach side bars and restaurants; You can also take a 10 min drive into Akumal. The house was kept very clean as well as the wonderful grounds keeper. I would like to go back.

Let me assure you that this is the house you want to stay at.  Now, if your looking to party and be close to clubs and bars, then do not stay here.  If your looking for a private house that sits right on the beach to relax and unwind, this is the best place I think I have ever stayed at.  It is not possible for the pictures to even do this house justice.  Your own pool, your own beachfront, your own house!  Sunsets in the morning overlooking the water right outside your bedroom.  Cleaning service daily and purified water daily (no need for water bottles) was just another perk of this house.  I do recommend you rent a car if you want to travel to Tulum, Playa del Carmen, Cancun, or any excursion you might be interested in.  The driving around is simple off the main road.  I also recommend the Chef services.  We did breakfast and dinner for 4 days.  There is a perfect small restaurant walking distance from the home if you do feel like leaving for a bit, or do not feel like cooking.  We will be back to this house.  It was amazing!

The house is lovely.  The location is great.  The wifi hardly works at all so don’t expect to use it while you’re there.  Could use a bit of maintenance for the price but very nice regardless.

We stayed at Casa Magica for a little over a week with extended family that included grandparents, aunts/uncles, and little ones. The house perfectly accommodated all of us, and everyone - from oldest to youngest - had an incredible time. It's exactly as pictured; beautifully furnished on the inside and wonderfully maintained on the outside. Marcos, the groundskeeper, was there every day to clean the pool, remove debris from the beach area, refresh the foot bath, etc. He speaks English and was a fantastic resource who helped us arrange massages in the cabana and local guides to drive us around the area. Raina, the housekeeper, arrived every morning with a smile and made sure the house stayed free of sand. Akumal Villas, the property management group that manages the house, was amazing and very quick to respond to all our questions. They arranged our transportation to/from Cancun airport, secured the chef services (which was INCREDIBLE - highly recommend Emilio!), and booked our tour of the Tulum Mayan ruins and Gran Cenote. Definitely took a lot of the stress of planning off our plates! Akumal is a lovely little town that is authentic and low-key compared to the much more touristy/busy areas of Tulum and Cancun. You can walk 15-20 minutes (a lovely stroll along the beach) from the house to town to eat (try Turtle Bay Cafe and Imelda's Ecocina) and shop. Jungle Fish Beach Club is just 5 minutes away from the house and next to two little lagoons that are great for little ones to play in. I can't say enough good things about our stay. It was nothing short of magical and felt like paradise on earth!

Casa Majica is just how it sounds, a magical, heavenly Villa on the ocean! The Villa had plenty of room for our family of 7. The inside is beautiful and huge, which gives everyone their own privacy and space. The guest house behind the villa has its own kitchen and living quarters. The pool in front of the ocean is private and has a beautiful view of the ocean, which is just steps from the yard. We spent many days kayaking with the kayaks provided for us. You just can't find a more exquisite place on the ocean! The beach is a Tortuga nesting ground! We spent many nights getting up after dark to watch the Tortugas come out of the water and nest on the beach. It's a 4-5hr process but so worth it. There are volunteers from the Tortuga conservatory who walk the beach at night and mark the nests. So informative when you ask them about Tortuga conservation! The Villa is close to everything. Thirty minutes max. Visit the Monkey Sanctuary, Xcaret, Xplor, and swim in as many cenotes as you can, they are beautiful and have many fish to look at, as you snorkel. Tulum and Playa Del Carmen are wonderful places to shop and safe to visit at night. Marcos and Reyna, who take care of everything inside and outside of the house became part of our family! Reyna who has such a beautiful smile made sure our villa was always clean. There was never a speck of sand in the Villa, or an unmade bed when she left for the day. She provided bags for our groceries when she saw how much we had to carry in, (grocery stores do not provide bags!) Towels were replenished without even asking her. She is the best! Marcos had an answer to everything we asked him about. He knows the area well and provided information on tours, Tortugas, fishing, and places to go. He keeps the grounds immaculate and is such a good person to have around! His chef skills are amazing! One of the many bonuses of staying at the Villa. He catches fish and lobster fresh out of the ocean. Have Marcos cook for you-the best dinners we have ever experienced on our travels! Thank you so much, you both made our trip very special! Gustave, (forgive me if I spelled your name wrong!) the property manager, checks in with you a few times to make sure everything is alright. He gave us valuable information and is very informative about the area. This is one Villa you will definitely want to book! Thank you so much to all of you for making our trip amazing!

Casa Magica was a wonderful experience for our family. We vacationed in mid-July and thus saw an abundance of turtle nests marked on the beaches in Akumal; we even were able to see a turtle lay her eggs one evening!  We also requested chef services for three nights and Chef Adrian was outstanding. Marcos and Reina did a great job hosting on a daily basis. Plus Javier from Edventures was a fantastic tour guide as we visited two awesome cenotes and snorkeled in Akumal Bay.  Overall, I would recommend Casa Magica for a family vacation filled with fun all around. Even though the sargassum was abundant in front of Casa Magica at the time of our visit, it was still a paradise vacation for us!!!

We had an amazing family vacation in Akumal at this beautiful home just steps from the beach.  The house had everything! The pool was fantastic too.  The home is in such a great location that if you have a car, you are just minutes away from lots of cenotes and even Tulum.  We hired a chef while there, which I would recommend.  Akumal is such a nice quiet town, but there are very few restaurants.  We will definitely be back!

This was a wonderful place to stay. The beach & pool were beautiful. The kitchen was well appointed with dishes/pots/pans/utensils for cooking meals. The location was nice, walking distance to restaurants and shopping on the beach trail. We enjoyed our meals with chef Emilio and yoga under the backyard palapa with Sofia. The landscaper and maid were lovely to work with. The air conditioning worked well. Highly recommend this place.

Casa Magica is a privileged house on Jade Bay. You have the beach about 15 meters from the house and the days we were mostly there the sea was very quiet which helped us enjoy snorkeling (take your equipment), use the kayaks and swim quietly. We were able to see manta rays, a brunette and several beautiful fish. The daily cleaning is wonderful and the service from both Reyna and Marco was great. (Tip: Marco goes fishing almost every day and you can buy him what he gets; octopus, lobster, fish). There is a restaurant about 300 meters away that serves from 11am to 6pm and can take your food to the house. Also Gustavo the administrator sent us the phone number of some pretty good delivery pizzas. What you're not going to have nearby is a supermarket or store if you need anything, so it's best to arrive prepared or walk along the beach to Akumal (approximately 1.5km) for shopping. The house is very spacious, we loved making use of the pool, and the beach and sea so close to the house was wonderful. We also made use of the barbecue with the lobsters we bought from Marco and the meat we brought from home. We hope to repeat our family vacation soon, we enjoyed it very much from the little ones of 3 years to the grandparents.

Casa Magica es una casa privilegiada en la bahía Jade. Tienes la playa a unos 15 metros de la casa y los dias que estuvimos en su mayoría el mar estaba muy tranquilo lo que nos ayudo a disfrutar de hacer snorkel (lleven sus equipos), usar los kayacs y nadar tranquilamente. pudimos ver mantarayas, una morena y varios peces hermosos. La limpieza diaria es una maravilla y el servicio tanto de Reyna como de Marco fue estupendo. (TIP: Marco sale a pescar casi todos los dias y puedes comprarle lo que llega a sacar; pulpo, langosta, pescado). Hay un restaurante a unos 300 metros que dan servicio de 11am a 6pm y pueden llevarte la comida hasta la casa. También Gustavo el administrador nos paso el teléfono de unas pizzas a domicilio bastante buenas. Lo que si no vas a tener muy cerca es un super o tienda por si necesitas algo, así que es mejor llegar preparado o caminar por la playa hasta Akumal (1.5km aproximadamente) para hacer las compras. La casa es muy amplia, nos encanto hacer uso de la alberca, y la playa y el mar tan cerca de la casa fue maravilloso. También hicimos uso del asador con las langostas que le compramos a Marco y la carne que llevamos desde casa. Esperamos repetir pronto nuestras vacaciones en familia, disfrutamos muchísimo desde los chiquitos de 3 año hasta los abuelos.

Casa Magica is by far the best place I ever booked on Airbnb. It truly lives up to its name! The place was spacious, very clean and comfortable. The staff Marcos and Reina were FANTASTIC. They were so helpful and assist you with a smile on their face. Waking up every morning to the ocean in front of us was the stuff of dreams. We were very sad to leave. Dream vacation home at a great value. Cannot recommend it enough.

Thank you for your wonderful review! It was our pleasure to host you and we look for to welcoming you back again some day soon!
