Does the high cost of airfare have you postponing your vacation? Well, wait no more! You CAN have a fabulous affordable vacation in beautiful Akumal Mexico at the incredible Casa Konomi (see rates below)!
Imagine it…enveloped in the hammock, you close your eyes and you breathe in the scent of the blossoming Bougainvillea. Your ears drink in the sound of the rippling tide gently lapping over the rocks of Yalku Lagoon and the songs of native jungle birds in the surrounding gardens. You feel the crisp yet warm breeze from the beach at Half Moon Bay flow over you like an ocean wave. You take a refreshing sip of your ice-cold beverage and realize that you’re staying in your own personal private paradise.
There are three bedrooms in this villa. The floral style master bedroom Blue Lagoon and second bedroom Mapumalanga (the setting sun) with its safari theme are on the second floor. The third spacious garden bedroom Shangra-La (which can be rented alone as a bungalow in the low seasons) is on the main level. Every room has two entrances, one leading to a veranda, another to the inside of the villa.
Casa Konomi has amazing attention to detail. From the monkeys carved into the building's decorative architecture, to the many stained glass windows featured throughout the house. The living room and dining room have been carefully thought out with no cost spared for aesthetic themes.
The tiled rooftop terrace offers amazing vistas of the sea, the jungle and the lagoon. Enjoy your early morning coffee for a breathtaking sunrise, or an evening filled with stars from this top floor retreat.
Everything needed for a perfect stay is on hand and the staff is at your service to help. Quite unusual to rental homes, there is a fully equipped laundry room with a washer, dryer and plenty of cleaning products. For a small additional fee and with some notice, the maid will gladly do laundry for guests, or the caretaker can arrange for a cook. Leave the bulky beach towels at home ~ Casa Konomi will provide as many beach towels as needed.
The home is equipped with a safe for valuables. Every bedroom has air conditioning as well as fans. Each has a walk in closet. The bathrooms are large and spectacular. Rare to the area, bedrooms have soft carpeted floors and walk in closets.
The spacious kitchen is equipped with two stainless fridges, a state of the art stove, a full size microwave, a gourmet coffee machine and more. There is nothing this kitchen does not provide.
Four flat screen TVs give choices to guests, one in the living room and one in each bedroom. There are plenty of DVDs, CDs and VHS videos for your enjoyment, as well as DISH TV if all you want is the sound of music playing while you fall asleep beside the pool. Free Vonage calling and wireless internet is available in Casa Konomi so please remember to bring your laptop should you need to keep in touch with family at home.
All terrain bikes are on hand for those wishing to ride. Biking not your thing? A golf cart has been provided for your stay. Perfect for trips to the lagoon, nearby restaurants or to the local shopping district and food market.
Now imagine this…for you and up to five additional guests*, you’re paying very little for a week! But hurry, this kind of deal won’t last long. Book now, for any date other than the holiday weeks, and you’ll save! (Refer to rates below.)
*Additional guests up to 14- additional cost per night (over the base number of 6).

A family in love with Akumal!
Why the Owner Chose Akumal
The locals are so warm and friendly, and we fell in love with the villa as it offered so many more extras than the others we knew about.
The Unique Benefits of this Villa
Our bikes, the convenience of our golf cart, the lush gardens surrounding our pool, the semi secluded location which is close to everything Akumal has to offer, and the amazing views from the tiled rooftop.

We have just returned from a stay at Casa Konomi, and feel we have uncovered a hidden treasure in beautiful Akumal! We are annual travelers to this area, and this is our most favorite vacation rental yet! This home has everything we could have possibly needed, and is so private and gorgeous!The caretaker and maid were a delightful addition. It is an incredible find....
