Great house, beautiful beach, terrific Hosts

We had an amazing stay at Casa Rosa. Check-in was seamless, we had plenty of space, enjoyed our time relaxing on the beach, and Maria and Bernardino made things even more comfortable. The guidebook prepared by the host was very helpful and one of the best we have seen. We recommend Casa Rosa for an enjoyable vacation rental.

Best VRBO Ever

House and pool and beach are so perfect it is really hard to want to leave to do any exploring. Great to have fabulous restaurants just minutes away. Make sure you have Bernardino and Maria cook for you!

Week at Casa Rosa

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Rosa. The house is a four bedroom 3 bathroom set up. All rooms are very nice size with air conditioning that works well. Our group was all impressed from day one on arrival as to get to the house you have to pass a security checkpoint a mile down the road and then you arrive the house front gate that is secured with coded door lock. There is also on site security from Noel. He does a great job watching over the property at night. That being said, we had absolutely no security issues. The place was very peaceful. The entry way is very nice and clean (Bernadino and Maria take very good care of the property). The house has fairly good wifi and satellite tv worked great (we only watched the super bowl). The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies. There is a gas grill out front. We had Maria and Bernadino cook a couple of meals that were excellent and they also went on a couple of grocery runs for us. Once you open the patio door out the back, there is a terrific breeze right through the house. The sea breeze each day was amazing. The pool was very clean and refreshing. The beach front area was well kept and the sand was soft. The hammocks are great to relax on. There are coconuts available from the trees in the back to make drinks with when they are ripe. Bernadino is a help with that. The water has some rock/coral on entry. There is some sea grass too. However, the snorkeling out from the house was amazing. I have paid for snorkel trips and gotten far less. There are a couple of really nice snorkeling reefs very close to the property. We saw sting rays, cuttlefish, angel fish, etc, etc,. It was excellent and a very easy activity. There is a cenote down the road that many people go to as well for another near snorkel excursion. We had a few meals out for dinner and breakfast. I recommend casa cenote or the tankah inn for breakfast. I also recommend going to Blue Sky just a bit further down from casa cenote for thieir wood fired pizza. It was fantastic. Bernadino ordered two taxis for our group to go to the Tulum ruins near by. If you want a relaxing getaway with family or a group of friends, I highly recommend Casa Rosa.

Casa Rosa

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our group had a wonderful stay at Casa Rosa. The house was beautiful, very clean and well maintained, and was appointed with everything you need for a great vacation. The housekeepers, Bernardino and Maria, take really excellent care of the property and can help arrange anything you need. We had them cook dinner for us twice...delicious!!! The location was great right on the beach with a wonderful view of the sunrise every morning. There were a handful of restaurants within easy walking distance just North of the property and Tulum is just a short drive to the south. Taxis were very easy to get right at the entrance to the community. I would highly recommend!

Beach is YOUR Backyard-Everything You Need!

Casa Rosa is directly on the water, with your own private beach as your backyard. We enjoyed going in and out of the water daily weather it be via kayak, swimming or just a stroll in the water. The in-ground pool was used just as much as the ocean by our 3 teenage kids. Casa Rosa has several well appointed and clean communal spaces along with lots of quiet locations for an afternoon siesta or curling up with a good book. Casa Rosa has wonderful staff!! Maria and Bernardino assured the house and grounds were meticulously maintained and kept daily. We opted to have them cook one meal for our group of 7, which was delicious and we highly reccommend this option. But if staying in is not what you are looking for, you can take a short stroll down the white sand beach to various high quality restaurants with delicious and fresh food, so if the best we have had. We would love to return!!

Killer property!!!

Great home. Checks all the boxes! Ocean front, beautiful views, the pool is great- refreshing and wasn’t cold at all( late March) The housekeepers and grounds keeper are super sweet and helpful. *only bummer is the house right next door is under a complete renovation- we were comped back $ from the owner ( thank you) for the inconvenience…. It could get noisy & we compromised easily. All is well and we would recommend this home for sure ( just ask if the house next door is done yet!)

Absolutely Perfect

I would be hard pressed to find any notable fault with the property or with our stay. Everything was exactly as described. Maria and Bernardino were delightful and helpful. Brett, the location manager was responsive and helpful. We had all sorts of grand plans to explore the area but ultimately never found reason nor desire to leave the property!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We couldn't have been more pleased with this vacation. Booking the trip was super easy. The team at Akumal Villas also helped us line up security, chef service, fishing trips, and anything we needed while we were there. Everything was seamless and we were able to focus on enjoying ourselves and relaxing the entire time! The photos of the beach and water do not do this place justice. The house and pool were great, Bernardino and Maria were the absolute best. We will be returning to Casa Rosa. Skip the resorts and enjoy yourselves even more!

Beautiful, quiet location right on the beach

Casa Rosa is a wonderful place to stay. It is a well maintained house right on the beach. You walk out the back door to your own pool and only a few more steps to the beautiful ocean. It is so quiet and away from the main town that it sometimes feels like you are on your own personal beach. You are only a 5-10 minute walk down the beach from a couple restaurants, a small store, and even a cenote. Getting into town isn't difficult either without a car. Although expensive (~$15 each way) there are taxis near the guard shack that will take you into the Avenue tulum area (little shops, big markets, bars, restaurants). Or you can walk about 15 minutes down the entry road and get the collectivo van for $1/person (20 pesos). And then there is the hipster/yoga area of tulum, on the ocean. It is filled with beautiful, resort style hotels, bars, shops, restaurants (a lot of vegan options in this area). Also, the tulum ruins are worth a visit. Anyhow, I digress. The house is great. They have a great welcome book that explains everything. Maria, Bernardino, and Noel are wonderful and friendly. We highly recommend Casa Rosa, especially for families and groups. Definitely book this place! Thank you Nick and Jeff for sharing.

Hi Michael, Thanks so much for staying with us and for taking the time to write a review. I'm so pleased that you had a great time with us and that you were able to explore the area a bit. We are very grateful that our house is several km north of the Tulum scene, as fun as those amazing beaches, yoga, foodie and cenotes are, it's so nice to come home to such a tranquil place. Wonderful that you took various forms of transportation to town and thanks for sharing with others that it's very doable without a rental car. It is getting very congested on the beach strip in Tulum, so taking a taxi from the adjoining hotel is a good option. We're especially pleased that you loved the villa as much as we do, and that your time with Maria, Bernadino and Noel, our long time staff, was a plus. They all make our stays feel like we are at our home away from home, and they try to make all our guests feel that way too. Hope you'll be back for another visit and thank you again for letting other know about your stay with us. Cheers, Nick

Great house right on the beach!

We traveled with 6 adults and 3 kids to this house and it worked out well overall. Unfortunately, the pool was too cold to use, maybe if it wasn't so windy, the pool could have been refreshing? We planned on having the kids swim a lot to occupy the time but that didn't happen. We stayed in a similar area two years ago and had the same issue, maybe the pools are just not warm during the winter months. Maria (and Bernadino) cooked us a couple meals and they were DELICIOUS! I highly recommend her cooking for you. The hospitality was good, but I've had friendlier in other homes I've rented in Mexico and Central America. On Monday, when we first met Bernadino and Maria, they showed up with breakfast and lunch, although we did not request any meals. We were only going to have them make dinner one or two nights. Although the food was very good, we had plans for lunch that day and felt obligated to stay at the house to eat lunch because they said they had brought it and had to cook it. Also, the welcome booklet said two loads of laundry were included and an additional 50 pesos for each additional load. I set out laundry one morning where instructed and Maria told me she wouldn't do it until the next day, which was frustrating because I had one of my child's swimsuits in there that I needed washed. So when they grabbed it the next day, it was no more than 3 loads as it fit in a regular sized laundry basket. I paid Bernadino for the dinner and there was $10-15 extra and I said it's ok you can keep it and he told me that the laundry was $10 so it worked out. It should have been less than $3 if it was 3 loads. The Kayaks were great and the water was beautiful! We spent a lot of time in the hammocks as well. The kids (and adults :)) loved the swings, such a nice touch! The rooms were spacious with lots of closet space. All the bathrooms worked well and A/C was great when needed! We all slept very well! Security was fantastic as well. If the housekeeper was friendlier and the pool was warmer, I would have given it 5 stars!

Hi Michelle, So glad you had an overall wonderful time at Casa Rosa. We strive to be the best possible home base for your travels to the Mayan Riviera. Especially glad that the meals were delicious and you enjoyed the kayaks and the pure crystal sand beach in front of the villa, leading into the tranquil waters of Tankah Bay. Apologies for the miscommunication on the laundry and the meals, but so relieved that it all worked out and the meals were delicious! Also, many apologies that the pool was not enjoyable. I'm not sure any pools in the area are heated, and from our and other guest's experiences, it's wonderful year round, so very sorry it was not enjoyable for you and your family. Thank you for your kind words and apologies for the inconveniences. Best regards, Nick

Amazing vacation...can't wait to go back!!!!

Stunning week on the beach. I can't say enough about what a great time my family had at Casa Rosa. The beach and pool area were spectacular. We found it hard to tear ourselves away to go the occasional day trip. The staff were a pleasure. Bernardino was quiet and non-intrusive, but more than happy to help us with our bad Spanish and split coconuts for the kids. Maria and Bernardino made us dinner one night...some of the BEST food we had in the area. Next time we will have them cook for us at least 2 nights (there were lots of leftovers as well). The house was super comfortable and well appointed. Not sure if the drapes were new, but they appeared so and blocked the early morning sun so I could sleep in a bit. Driving in the area was not a problem, as you stated in your guest book. It was super convenient being one of the first houses on the beach. The cenote farther down the road was super popular and glad we didn't have to contend with the divers and parking going on at the cenote very often. Found an amazing dive shop across the street from the cenote, with parking lot in front and next to Blue Sky Hotel, run by Miguel Beltran. I believe it is called Manatee Divers. $100 for a dive is a great price and he was an excellent dive master. Thanks for all the tips on places to eat in Tulum. We are ceviche fanatics and loved El Camello (almost out of town heading south on the main highway...on your left). Again, thanks for providing such an awesome house for us to enjoy!!!

Our favorite place in ALL of Tankah Bay!

We have traveled to Tankha Bay since 2007, and stayed at Casa Rosa our last 2 times. There simply is NO better location, beachfront and privacy for an authentic Mexican experience. Sure there are larger, more modern places but they lack the charming appeal of this amazing home. The kitchen remodel and outdoor grill/table were outstanding and well-used on our part! Bernardino, Maria and Noel are wonderful and helpful. Have Maria cook for you one (or more) nights for a special treat. The only request we would make is 1. A complete first aid kit and 2. A few plastic adirondak chairs for easy moves to the beach for reading. We'll be back!

Perfect Property

My wife and I and our four "adult" children just returned from a week at Casa Rosa on beautiful Tankah Bay immediately north of Tulum. This property was precisely right for our group and "as advertised" in every respect. The house is generously sized with 4 ample bedrooms - two "master" suites (one down; one up) and two nicely appointed secondary bedrooms on the first floor. The kitchen is huge and well-equipped. The living area is comfortable. The house offers all the comforts of home. The air conditioning works very well - important for a trip like ours in August. The oceanfront terraces and decks are wonderful for relaxing during the day or in the evening. The pool is great for a quick dip to cool off or simply relax. The setting in a small grove of coconut palms with hammocks strung between a couple is idyllic in every way. The staff is wonderful. Bernardino is the groundskeeper and general all-around go-to-guy for whatever you need - including a refreshing coconut drink right out of the nut he's pulled off one of the trees on the beach. Maria does a great job keeping things inside and out spotless and fresh towels in the bathrooms (there are 3 - with plenty of hot water). We didn't get a chance to sample one of Maria's meals (we understand they're wonderful) because we found too many great places in Tulum to eat, but we arrived to find a big batch of freshly made guacamole and Pico de Gallo in the frig along with a bag of chips - all very welcome since we didn't arrive to the house until 8:00 PM on our day or arrival (we asked her to repeat the guacamole, which she did to perfection). From sundown to sunrise, Noel patrols the grounds, keeping an eye out for security and for any nesting or hatching sea turtles (and making really cute crafts from palm fronds). Being there in August, we had the possibility of seeing turtles nest or hatch. The hatching usually occurs during the dead of night. When we arrived, we found the beach in front of the house and north and south literally covered with turtle nesting spots (each carefully marked and dated). Amazingly, two of those nests right in front of Casa Rosa hatched in the early evening while it was still light and we witnessed the most amazing spectacle of literally hundred of little turtles (200 +/- per next) coming up out of the sand and heading straight to the water. We've never seen anything like it before and will never forget it. In short, I can't recommend Casa Rosa more highly.

wonderful family destination with breathtaking views!

Stayed a week with my husband and 6 children ages 5-18. Perfect spot right on the beach-which was absolutely beautiful! We loved the beach, kayaks, swings, roomy kitchen and basically everything about this property! There was great water pressure in the showers which I appreciate. The information packet was the most informative and best I have ever received from a vacation rental property. Wonderful owner and property manager communication and the housekeeper and gardener were so helpful. I like having them there during the days and the security guard at night. All were very friendly and helpful and just made the stay even that much more enjoyable. I sometimes feel vulnerable traveling with so many children, but this vacation I felt was safe and it was wonderfully relaxing. We had Bernardino and Maria (the gardner and housekeeper) prepare a meal for us one ever bing and it was delicious! We had the Mayan barbecue chicken, Mexican beans, and caramel flan. Even though I would rent a vehicle again, I will say that our experience with Fox/Mex rental agency was not good. They took forever getting us a different vehicle than we had reserved and the insurance which we thought would be $16 per day ended up being $31 (full coverage and on a suburban). We visited Tulum and Coba ruins and Playa Parraiso (most beautiful beach!). We got a guide at both ruins and enjoyed all the information they shared with us. We got bikes (and Mayan limos) at Coba and it was a fun experience- the kids loved it. We ate at the restaurant out front of Coba which was reasonably priced and excellent food and large portions. We also ate at Mateos in Tulum Pueblo-it was good and the atmosphere was enjoyable-the kids made friends with a large iguana there that they threw bits of food to and the staff didn't mind. The whole area is interesting, beautiful, and a memorable experience for all ages. We looked into vacationing at many other Caribbean areas and I'm very happy that we chose here to vacation! Also, there were many DVDs, games, hats (we loved the hats!) and other little things that made our stay comfortable and even more enjoyable than we could have ever hoped or asked for! Thank you!

70th Birthday Celebration and Thanksgiving Week

This was the perfect place to bring the family (9 of us, 3 were children) for Thanksgiving and to celebrate my 70th birthday. So much to do, the beach, the towns, and especially Casa Rosa. The layout is perfect --- everyone had their own space and the outdoors had plenty of shade when needed. The pool was delightful. The grandkids were in the Caribbean or pool so much they might have grown gills! Can't say enough -- everything was perfect. My wife surprised me with a band for the celebration, Maria cooked for us, Bernardino assisted and kept the place spotless. Perfect place for a family vacation!

Absolutely Unbeatable!

As a travel writer and photographer for more than a decade, I have travelled extensively throughout Mexico and had the great fortune to experience amazing beaches on each of its coasts. My wife and I have also rented homes throughout the country and, without question, Casa Rosa is the best we have found. We rented the house to celebrate my father’s 80th birthday and my wife’s 40th birthday and it is difficult to express what a true pleasure it was to have Casa Rosa as our home for those ten days. The house very comfortably accommodated five adults and two small children and offered quiet and privacy, but with ready access to all Tulum has to offer. Minutes from the ruins and the many excellent restaurants in town, Casa Rosa was the perfect getaway. The house itself is clean and everything is perfectly maintained. Whether lounging in one of the hammocks in the cool breeze coming off the Caribbean Sea, watching sea turtles lay their eggs on our beach, enjoying a delicious meals prepared by the warm and accommodating caretakers, Bernadino and Maria, our stay at Casa Rosa inspired a rare sense of contentment and tranquility. I can’t recommend Casa Rosa highly enough. Our only complaint is that it will now be hard to stay anywhere else—some of our friends have already booked the house and we’re planning to do the same next year!

Amazing stay at Casa Rosa!

We just returned from an amazing, relaxing stay at Casa Rosa. We were two families, with two young kids each ranging from 10 months to 4 years and the house worked perfectly. All the rooms were spacious and clean. The setting could not be more beautiful! A quiet beach (we saw only a few people a day pass by), a pool, swings, hammocks, kayaks, etc were all at our fingertips. You are a 10-15 minute drive to Tulum with its large grocery stores, restaurants, shops and beaches. The house is very well taken care of, the kitchen is stocked with all the equipment you need and you can even have groceries ordered and delivered for you before you arrive, and if you need to connect with those back home there's free long distance and wi-fi. There's really nothing missing from Casa Rosa! One thing to note: you do need a car. Friends of ours had stayed at Casa Rosa the year before and recommended it to us and we were not disappointed!
