Sat right on the water in Akumal – halfway between Playa del Carmen and Tulum – this villa is the kind of place where the line between indoors and out dissolves entirely. The pool terrace looks straight out to sea, the dining room frames that same turquoise water, and the main bedroom opens onto it too. Five bedrooms make it well suited to a group, while the barbecue and garden give everyone room to spread out.

Home truths
While most of the bathrooms aren't photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair at no extra charge.
The on-site caretakers live in a small home at the front of the estate and are on hand six days a week – Saturday is their day off, so plan any special requests or grocery runs for another day.
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
