Reviewer Comments:
Over all awesome. A few small things. The fridge did not cold enough and I had to fix the toilet every time we used it. Erma was awesome and we really loved the place. The beach images are a little misleading. It was a lot more rocky than it looked like.

Thank you, Allen!
We're glad you loved Casa Cavu and that Erma made your stay special. We appreciate your feedback about the fridge, toilet, and beach conditions and have shared it with the team for review. Let us know when you're ready to join us again, and we’ll gladly help you plan another great vacation.
We were a 3-generation family (ages 3.5, 67 and late 20-year-olds) visiting Tulum for the 1st time. We had an excellent experience. Casa Cavu was a choice location. We had plenty of space for all of us, excellent hosts and wonderful day trips to nearby Maya ruins, cenotes and the downtown area. We enjoyed the kitchen, grill and pool every day. We even broke through the sargassum with the kayaks to do some snorkeling. Looking forward to a 2nd trip to this wonder location.

Thank you for your kind words about your stay at Casa Cavu, Dawn! It was lovely to host your family. We will look forward to your return to Mexico!
Happy travels always,

The house and caretakers were excellent. However, the sargassum build up and associated smell was significant which effectively limited us to stay inside while on the premises.
Great stay! Wouldn’t have changed a thing. Privacy and seclusion. Outside of the city to avoid tons of people but close enough to come in enjoy and close to all the outside attractions! Jose who maintained the property was great, had fresh food for snacks and was out going in maintaining or pleasure during the stay!

We arrived to find a huge construction site next door. Only 10 feet away, were 30 men crashing and banging from 8am to 6pm. I had contacted the rental company to make sure this would not be the case because I had seen reviews mentioning work before and was assured that no work had been done on the site in the last 6 months - the cleaners told us that work had been going on for at least the last three months. So complete misinformation and one can only imagine it was deliberate.

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re truly sorry for the experience you had.
We always make it a priority to inform guests of any nearby construction in advance and offer a discount. In this case, construction had actually stopped for about 6 months and then restarted unexpectedly just before your arrival. Unfortunately, we were not made aware in time to notify you beforehand. The caretakers at the time were also new to this property and hadn't been there in the previous months.
As soon as you brought it to our attention, we acted immediately and offered both a discount and the option to move to another property. We’re glad we were able to relocate you right away so your stay could continue more comfortably.
We’ve also had other guests stay during the previous construction period who shared that they did not find it overly disruptive, though we completely understand that everyone’s sensitivity to noise can differ.
We would never intentionally withhold this kind of information, and we truly regret that this situation impacted your experience. We hope you still enjoyed your stay at our other property, and we wish you all the best. Happy travels!
The property was amazing! There was very loud construction going on next door and the host offered to move us to another location. Everything worked out great!

My wife and I stayed here for 6 days for a short getaway and much-needed vacation during these difficult times. The house and property are beautiful. Isidro and Rocio are great and we had a very nice meal prepared and served by them! We rented a car and did a bit of sight seeing, hung out a lot at the pool and beach and had a great time. We definitely recommend staying here.

I came to Casa Cavu with four friends to enjoy a week together. The place is beautiful - fantastic beach, delightful pool and near several cenotes. The caretakers are lovely and quite accommodating. The house was impeccably clean. If you stay here you should budget for taxis to and from Tulum, but this was worth it for the quality of the space we had. Highly recommended!

We stayed for 8 nights and had the best time! The pool was lovely and clean, the beach was very private feeling and we floated and snorkeled in the ocean everyday right there. Jose and Delfina were WONDERFUL! They made us homemade salsa (the best we have ever had!) and guacamole several times, cut us fresh coconuts to drink and eat and were there for anything we needed or to answer any questions we had. We set up massages at the house and several excursions through Akumal Direct and everything was flawless. Loved every minute here!

Amazing property and Akumal Direct was a pleasure to deal with. We changed houses because of the seaweed issues, and they didn't charge us any change fees...Seamless transaction.

Hi Sabrina,
We're happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at Casa Cavu and have had a night to remember :) There are a few restaurants on Tankah Bay, with the latest being open until around 10 PM. When arriving later than that we do recommend ordering groceries or stopping at a grocery store on your way from the airport. Thank you again for staying with us and we hope to see you back soon :)
Great communication with rental company only thing that should be updated is directions. Looks like sign to dirt road changed & can be updated.

Wonderfully beautiful waterfront near Talum and Akumal
Casa Cavu is a beautiful house and made our stay perfect. Pool and beach were
picture perfect and soooo relaxing. Kitchen was large and dining room beautiful which allowed us to have
wonderful diners (wonderful grocery store in nearby Talum). The beds
were wonderfully made by senora Rocio and she clean the house every day just like
at a 5 star hotel :-) Isidro and Rocio were just excellent and made our stay
extremely pleasant. Talum and Akumal were just 15 minutes. The Kayaks, Snorkeling, and a
local Cenote just down the street added to the fun. Can't wait to return to Talum
& Akumal and would definitely stay at Casa Cavu again!
I cannot say enough good things about this property and the caretakers, Isidro and Rocio. The property is located in a quiet area of Tulum right on Tankah Bay. Beautiful snorkeling right outside the property. Our family loved the property so much, that our favorite days of our vacation were simply staying back and enjoying the ocean and pool.
Isidro cleaned the seaweed and raked the beach every morning. During our stay, the seaweed was a non-issue. Very small amount. Rocio cleaned the house every day. They were both diligent and it was so appreciated.
The pool and home were pristine. The home had everything we needed including filtered water, oil, spices, etc. Everything was truly perfect for our family. We hope to be back again!

It is a wonderful property. We loved the view and being able to walk to a few restaurants. The location is perfect. It’s a quiet area with a Cenote within walking distance. It’s convenient to Akumal and Tulúm. There is construction next door, but it wasn’t disruptive. The groundskeeper and housekeeper were attentive. A place on the beach was cleared daily. Some of the furniture needs an upgrade. The living room sofa was difficult to sit on. Cushions were uncomfortable and didn’t stay put. It could be a problem for people with limited mobility. More/nicer outdoor furniture could really put this house at the next level. We would rent this house again.

I'm pretty wary of trusting positive reviews these days. But this is a legitimately incredible rental. This was a splurge for us, but completely worth it. The house has it's own quiet beach, far away from the big hotels. We stayed in the city of Tulum the week before renting this house - it was loud and certainly not family friendly (we have 3 children). This house was a welcome respite from the craziness of Tulum. If you bring children, stay here and take day trips to Xel-Ha and Xplor and the ruins. Very family friendly - the kids had a blast. I recommend renting a car. Most of the activities require a short drive.
Communication with the property manager was very fast and clear. The house was very well stocked. Much better than most rentals. The house is perfect.

Akumal Direct Reservations
The house was exactly as described, and all of my questions prior to our stay were answered promptly. The managing company was attentive and helped us feel prepared for our stay, then were just as prompt to respond whenever we reached out during our stay. The caretakers on the property were sweet and kept the house and beach clean and fresh water and towels stocked. On a rainy day, they brought us fresh coconut and hot chocolate! The house was a great home base for us as we explored nearby akumal beach, cenotes, and tulum ruins, and we made great use of the pool. We ordered groceries to be delivered ahead of time, but there are plenty of great grocery store options on the way from cancun airport or a 10 min drive away in tulum. There are also great restaurant options a short walk away. The road from the highway to the house is very bumpy - not so bad that it kept us from leaving the house when we wanted, but we won’t miss it. Overall a quiet, safe home for our family trip to Mexico!

Amazing Experience!
Our family of 4 stayed at Casa Cavu for 10 wonderful, adventurous and relaxing days in June & July. My husband and I, and our children, aged 6 and 8, swam every day, played at the beach, snorkeled in the bay, kayaked, explored local restaurants (there are a few within a short walk) and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay at Casa Cavu! We took a private van from the airport to the house (scheduled by the concierge) and had a rental car delivered the next day. We ventured into nearby Tulum and Akumal for day trips, restaurants, more snorkeling, ruins, hikes, monkeys and shopping. The house is well appointed, the beds are super comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need, and the A/C in the bedrooms was perfect. Rocio and Icidro made the stay extra special. Rocio kept the house clean every day and Icidro raked the beach of seaweed and cooked us two fabulous meals. The mosquitoes were really bad, but other than that we were comfortable, felt safe, and enjoyed our vacation very much! Don't hesitate to book this place, it's fantastic!
