Villa Arghy combines natural building material of the area into a luxurious 4000 sq ft sprawling modern home. The use of floor-to-ceiling plate glass allows for unobstructed ocean views from the first floor and significantly on the second. The owners designed the home for comfortable group settings, with two large central common areas, complemented by secluded, private veranda/balconies off 3 of the 4 bedrooms. There is also a private viewing area on the roof for sunning, stargazing or watching those famous sunrises.
The grounds are as luxurious and calming as the home. From the grand hardwood entry doors that lay sentry for the property to the charm of the winding stone path and driveway lined with beautiful palms and flowering plants. Her pinnacle is the serene infinity pool that sets the stage for the rolling ocean surf mere yards from the spillway. This pools replicates the gentle grade as if you were walking into the Caribbean ocean. Let Villa Arghy pamper you with her indoor/outdoor bar hosting a massive pool deck allowing for several sunning and gathering places. You will savor the constant cooling and refreshing tradewinds.

Beyond the beauty of the natural beach, surf, and jungle across the road - you are in "Turtle Country". Yes, Villa Arghy sits on one of the most dense turtle nesting areas in Mexico. This makes for the best turtle watching in the area from the months of June through November. Always mindful and respectful of this hallow nesting area, viewers can responsibly watch as these grand creatures secure their next generation of ocean inhabitants. Our caretaker will assist you in how to properly view these breathtaking animals.

Beautiful Villa Arghy

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Arghy. Rose, Lesly, Alfredo, and Angel were extremely helpful. We enjoyed riding the bikes on the dirt road, swimming in the cenotes just down the road, and hanging out and chatting at the local bar/restaurant by the cenotes. The house was very clean. The pool was wonderful. The view divine. Lesly's cooking is fantastic -- in fact, once we were back in the states, my 4-yr old grandson told us that we need Lesly! How we all wish! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

This was a family vacation with our daughters and there families. The ages ranged from 60 to 1 year of age, for a total number of 11 people.The house was more than big enough for all of us. The house was fantastic! Everything was just as it appeared in the photographs on the web page. Leslie the house keeper was great, she actually got upset with us on our first morning when we did the dishes. She is also a great cook, we had her prepare 2 meals for us which were excellent. Highly recommend that you take advantage of her cooking skills. We were fortunate to be there for the turtle nesting season,and were able to see both the large turtles and the eggs hatch. My wife and I are planning to return to this lovely home, but next time without the kids.

Just returned from a fantastic getaway with several of my girlfriends!! When entering Villa Arghy, you are met with absolutely stunning views of the Caribbean. Breathtaking!! The home itself and all the cozy outdoor areas to relax and socialize are just perfect. We enjoyed shopping and a couple of dinners out in the charming nearby towns of Tulum and Playa del Carmen, but personally, I would have been happy if I'd never set foot out of the villa! The caretakers of the property were very friendly and helpful. Leslie prepared the most delicious pico de gallo and guacamole every afternoon, and we also had her make dinner for us on two of the nights, which were equally delicious! I know my family would love it there as well, and am planning on booking Villa Arghy in the future with my siblings and their families, as the spaciousness of the house would accomodate everyone very comfortably. I can't say enough about the beauty of the area and the home itself. I didn't want to leave, and can't wait to return sometime soon!!

Villa Arghy Stay

Villa Arghy is without a doubt the vacation of a lifetime. We watched a loggerhead turtle lay her eggs on the beach! Alfredo and Lesly make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive till the time of departure. Their services are second to none, very polite and willing to help. Lesly is a very good cook you have to give her a chance. Alfredo is always at work keeping the grounds and outside clean and pristine. The panoramic ocean views from the floor to ceiling windows are better than any television. The waves sing you to sleep every night. Afternoon walks along the beach followed by late afternoon swims in the pool,poolside meals or just lounging on the beach or around the pool—always something to do. Excursions into the neighboring towns including Mass at Valladolid, visiting the ruins at Coba and shopping in Talum, Akumal, Playa and even Cancun were great but the villa was my favorite of all. Just can’t say it enough, love it, love it, love it. On the morning of departure be sure to go down to the beach and leave a foot print for luck. A foot print in the sand means you will return.

My visit to Villa Arghy was wonderful! The Villa and Ocean are breathtaking. I spent a lot of my time sitting by the pool or walking on the beach watching “Ocean TV”. I couldn’t get enough of it. Love the conch shells on the staircase, it brings the ocean in doors. We visited beaches in Tulum and Akumal Bay and the Coba Ruins. Spent Sunday in Valladolid and went to the oldest church in the Yucatan. I was lucky enough to get to see one of the Loggerhead Turtles lay her eggs on the beach. The caretakers Lesly and Alfredo are super. You must try Lesly fried chicken. Yum! Yum! I enjoyed it all, but Villa Arghy was the best part of our trip. "Doc" from Anderson, Missouri

Just returned from stay at Villa Arghy and just cannot say enough about this hidden gem. Not only is it a beautiful place but the location was ideal for those who enjoy the privacy of a secluded location while still having the convenience of local sights nearby (visit the Mayan Ruins early in AM before it gets to warm). I rented a car and it was very easy to get to Tulum or the opposite direction to Akumal which was ideal. I went first morning to Mayan Spa in Tulum and participated in meditation walk in addition to yoga class that I really enjoyed. They also do private lessons so she came out to the Villa one morning to do out by pool at sunrise that was spectacular. The on-sight staff at Villa Arghy were fantastic and you never notice them even there unless you need them since they live on the grounds but totally separate from the Villa itself. They take care of everything you need including cooking some fantastic meals if you choose to have a meal at home. I did breakfast out by pool. There is also a great little restaurant right up the road (Blue Sky) which had great foods and local ambiance. Villa Arghy is no doubt a first class getaway. I very seldom saw anyone walking by out on the private beach (which by the way also has very comfortable chase lounge chairs with cushions and an outdoor shower). When they did however, they would stop and take pictures of the villa probably since it looks like somewhere a movie star would be staying! It is much more beautiful and spacious than the pictures on the website which is rare based on my experience and a very pleasant surprise. I highly recommend Villa Arghy. I travel a lot and have been to many beautiful places but rarely go back again just because I like to try something new all the time. This is definitely the exception and I am already looking forward to next time I can get back down there.

Villa Arghy is the closest that I have ever come to vacationing in paradise. The house is immaculate and the pool and private beach will make you never want to leave. The care-takers, Leslie and Alfredo, were friendly and inviting, and welcomed us with freshly made pico de gallo and guacamole. The house is in a perfect location, close to Playa del Carmen for night-life and only minutes from Tulum, where you can find a nice grocery store, local shopping, and authentic restaurants. The delicious Blue Sky restaurant is within walking distance, and if you want to stay home and relax Leslie is an amazing cook! The aspect of Villa Arghy that I enjoyed the most was the peaceful quiet and privacy. After our visit I was rejuvenated and relaxed. I highly recommend Villa Arghy for your next vacation, and can't wait to go back for turtle season!

Villa Argy is even more beautiful than the listing description! It is the perfect get away, something for everyone. We visited the Ruins (amazing) took a fishing trip, went to Xel Ha for the day and had a blast! The food that was prepared for us by Leslie was superb, we also enjoyed the Blue Sky Restaurant so much we went twice!! We enjoyed just relaxing, taking in the beauty of Villa Argy, the grounds and beach. The best vacation ever, can't wait to visit again!!

I was fortunate to spend this past week at Villa Arghy. I found the property to be first class in all aspects. We arrived after dark and were immediately greeted by the property caretakers-Alfredo and Lesly. After welcoming us, they both helped us get settled and become aclaimated to the property within minutes. The house is well designed, beautifully appointed and was comfortable for our party of 8. The beach and pool make it fun to relax in style. Alfredo and Lesly could not have been more helpful. They took care of or steered us to eveything we needed during our stay there. They are quality people and make the experience we had at Villa Arghy even more special. We ate about half our meals during the weeks' stay at the property and everything was delicious and the presentation was wonderful. Lesly is very creative and it shows in the meals she prepared and served to our group. There are a variety of places to go and things to see within a few minutes drive from the house. I would strongly recommend a stay at Villa Arghy and can't wait to go back. Next time, I want to schedule a visit when the Sea Turtles are laying their eggs.
