A private beachfront villa on Tankah Bay, Casa Caribbean Soul offers three air-conditioned bedrooms for six guests, a private dock, rooftop plunge pool, and panoramic jungle and Caribbean views near Tulum.
The Space
Casa Caribbean Soul is a private beachfront villa on the calm, turquoise waters of Tankah Bay. This thoughtfully designed three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom home combines relaxed Caribbean living with comfort and privacy for up to six guests.
The villa features:
- Soaring ceilings
- Tropical woven reed and bamboo furnishings
- Floor-to-ceiling glass doors with ocean and jungle views
- Abundant natural light and ocean breezes
- Three spacious, air-conditioned bedrooms
- A private ensuite bathroom in each bedroom
- A television in each bedroom with Amazon Fire Stick or Chromecast
The main living area sits beneath an impressive 30-foot cupola ceiling accented by elegant Tiffany-style chandeliers. It provides a welcoming setting for gathering, dining, or relaxing. The fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare meals at home, and staff can also prepare fresh dishes upon request.
Sargassum
The villa’s location helps limit the amount of sargassum along the beach. The nearby shoreline forms a point that blocks most of it, so the area directly in front of the villa typically receives much less sargassum than many other coastal locations.
Rooftop
The rooftop palapa bar offers panoramic 360-degree views of Tankah Bay, the Caribbean Sea, and the surrounding jungle. A rooftop plunge pool provides an ideal spot for watching the sunset or enjoying evening stargazing.
Beach and Outdoor Areas
The property opens directly onto a quiet stretch of white-sand beach. A private dock with a palapa, hammocks, and lounge chairs offers a relaxing place to enjoy the scenery or launch kayaks and paddleboards.
The beachside terrace features:
- Terrazzo tile flooring
- Shaded palapas
- Outdoor seating
- Dining areas just steps from the water
Location and Activities
Tankah Bay is known for its clear water and abundant marine life. A reef approximately 100 yards offshore offers excellent snorkeling, with opportunities to see tropical fish, spotted eagle rays, and sea turtles.

Beautiful place, well stocked kitchen, Marcos and Lydia were amazing. Beach was raked daily everything was kept up we did several meals and she is a great cook. Couple things to note for us is the sargassum is very limited from its location in the bay. There is some but we visited other places literally ten houses away across the bay and it was four feet deep as it was in Tulum. I know it is seasonal but this location is good to avoid it all together. Great place felt comfortable and relaxing. Titles do come up on the beach at night we got to see two of them.

We had a wonderful visit. They made us feel so welcomed. Leydi prepared delicious meals for us. Marcos was very attentive. We had massages one day on the pier and another day we had a yoga class. We barely left the property because it offered everything. Bring water shoes for swimming.

This house exceeded expectations. This home has been lovingly maintained and is expansive and luxurious with 3 very large master suites with amazing views, a private dock with palapa, large roof plunge pool and dining area. Marco and Leydi are kind and responsive we had them make two dinners and 3 breakfasts which were delicious and such a bargain. The house was well equipped with tons of snorkel equipment, life vests, SUPs, kayaks, games and some beach toys. The reefs in the cove had rays, octopus, eel, many fish, urchins and more. This is a heavenly spot.

In a word this place was perfect. Beautiful house, in a beautiful setting. The house is 30ft from the water with gorgeous views from every room. The dock allowed easy access to the water & great snorkeling just off the dock. The area is a coral reef so pack your swim shoes because you don't want to miss getting out in the water & seeing the amazing sea life. I would highly recommend have at least a meal or two cooked by Leydi as everything she made us was delicious. Leydi & Marcos kept the house & grounds immaculately clean throughout our stay & were very responsive to anything we needed. The views from the rooftop pool were amazing. If you are looking for a quiet & serene space this is definitely the house for you. This was the most private & relaxing vacation my family has ever had. Next time we find ourselves back in Tulum we will be staying here!

Absolutely stunning and the best location on Tunkah Bay. It was our own beautiful and exclusive resort! Having Marco and Leydi onsite who lovingly and meticulously care for the home made it that much more enjoyable as they met every need without delay. The food they prepared was fresh and delicious which created a very special experience! The area from my last visit eight years ago is developing quite rapidly, so the construction was disappointing as I’m afraid this beautiful gem will one day explode and become too commercialized. The new airport in Tulum is beautiful with easy one road access passing the downtown area and on the way to the home. The Cenotes are still pristine and a wonder to be seen. We’ve established a relationship over the past decade with Victor Rosado from KOOX diving and as always he provided a world class experience for all and getting our friend scuba certified. I would highly recommend this home and the wonder Tulum beholds! I would absolutely retur

This was like staying in our own private resort. The beach area was the most versatile and enjoyable of any home we e stayed in. Tons of different seating configurations, and additional snorkeling and kayaking gear. . And of course, laying in the hammocks on the extended dock was heavenly. The inside of the home worked very well for us. Nice seating in the living room and kitchen with amazing views of the water. Beds were comfortable, toilets and showers did their jobs. Plus roof top pool was a great treat. Finally the staff Marcos and his wife, were very kind and helpful if we needed something. And Marcel was excellent with communication. Aside from the very bumpy road leasing to the home (around 5 minutes of grief, but not unusual in areas like this) this was a perfect, relaxing base for seeing the Tulum area. (Note, it is much better to have your own car as the home is around 20/30 minutes drive to downtown Tulum.
