Located on the Caribbean Sea, the unspoiled views from Las Vigas are some of the finest on the Riviera Maya. Tucked away amongst lush tropical foliage, this luxury vacation home offers romantic privacy like no other in the quaint village of Akumal, Mexico. Built by a Mexican architect who visited New Mexico for inspiration, the villa has a Santa Fe style exterior while the interior is decorated in a mixture of Santa Fe, Mexican, Spanish and Italian. Las Vigas is the owners’ "dream home".
Stroll through gorgeous gardens teeming with tropical palms as you make your way up to the carved doors which part to reveal an Akumal vacation home that combines graceful and elegant touches with the warmness of natural wood. Spanning the overhead air space of the entry hall are numerous exposed beams of carved wood, accentuated by sunlight filtering down through thoughtfully placed skylights. Step into the living area of this luxury vacation villa by passing between two impressive natural "tree" columns. The charming Mexican sofas are piled high with soft, white pillows and are invitingly comfortable. Elegant Oriental rugs are scattered throughout.
Beyond a series of decorative French doors lies a view that captures the beauty offered exclusively on the Riviera Maya. As Las Vigas is located directly where the majesty of the Caribbean Sea meets Akumal’s own treasure, Yal-Ku Lagoon, you will see incredible waters of bright blues and emerald greens dotted with tiny islands. Las Vigas is a luxury vacation home perched on one of the most amazingly private pieces of land in Akumal. To allow for ample enjoyment of the Mexican Caribbean views, a partially covered patio runs along the entire oceanfront side of this Rivera Maya vacation home, providing sitting, dining, and lounging areas. If you have the need for sand between your toes while on vacation in Akumal, you will enjoy the small, sandy beach area at Las Vigas. With two chaise lounges and an umbrella, this is an ideal spot for sunning. A winding cobblestone pathway gently guides you down to the water’s edge. With steps and a small, cupped formation in the rocks, there is access into the water on calm days. For star-gazers and the romantic at heart, take the opportunity to enjoy the roof-top observatory, accessed by stairs off the kitchen.
Falling asleep to the sound of crashing ocean waves is one of the best parts of vacationing on the Riviera Maya, and both bedrooms in this amazing vacation home offer this divine luxury! The dreamy master bedroom features a wall of windows to the Caribbean Sea, intricate wooden shelves and entertainment center, as well as an enormous talavera tiled bath with a glass walled shower. Hand-carved headboards made from antique Spanish doors complement the king size beds and are stunning focal points of both bedrooms. With a small, private patio tucked away at the side of the villa, the guest bedroom offers privacy and a gorgeous view of the ocean. This bedroom is extremely spacious, with an oversized bathroom also done in traditional talavera tile.
With large French doors to the Caribbean Sea, the dining room presents a magnificent Mexican carved wood table and chairs; a perfect compliment to the motif of this vacation home. A series of skylights hidden behind an impressive wooden beam allow natural lighting to filter down and interact among exquisite pieces of art above a solid wood buffet. For those who love to cook, the spacious and well-designed kitchen of this vacation home will be sure to please. If cooking does not fit into your Riviera Maya vacation plans, try a traditional Mexican feast prepared for you and served to you in the privacy of your own Akumal villa! Sublime!
Las Vigas is a romantic vacation home, tucked out of sight from any other villa with a stunning view of the Caribbean Sea. From a honeymoon in Akumal to an adventure-filled Riviera Maya vacation, Las Vigas is the perfect vacation home for your holiday in Akumal.
