About this property
Homelike and cozy apartment in an intimate garden setting
Our guests often comment upon how much they feel at home while enjoying hospitality with a personal touch in a peaceful place where they can relax while comfortably settled in one of our spacious and cozy apartments . Each apartment has a distinctive style. Suite 100 is decorated with African and Animal-themed artwork and antiques, with comfortable sitting areas, a kitchen fitted with everything an average vacation would require and a palapa-shaded balcony open to the breeze.
Casa Gatos is in a quiet residential neighborhood that forms an island of calm surrounded by Yalku, Half Moon Bay and the Mangrove. We have arranged a free day at Yalku and a one-third discount for additional visits. Four resturants are a short walk from the house and six more are at Akumal Bay one mile up the shore road along with stores and two dive shops. In Akumal Pueblo across the highway, you will find more stores, restaurants and interesting murals decorating the houses and businesses.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Dan Freeman
Dan Freeman had a varied career in the food service industry with his own catering company for ten years then as Director of Sales and Marketing for the Philadelphia Zoo and New Jersey Aquarium, and then as Creative Director, designing affairs for a New Jersey catering company. David Zucker ran a paper products manufacturing company. In our leisure life we were divers and became hooked on cave diving, which brought us back to Akumal year after year. It was always our intention to move to this paradise when we retired. We drove down with three cats (for whom the house is named), and acquired a rescue dog and outside cat while living here. We congratulate ourselves on our decision every day as we walk the dog and watch the waves break along along the iron shore.
Why they chose this property
Like so many others who chose to live in or migrate periodically to Akumal, we came, we saw, and we were conquered by the its natural beauty and welcoming atmosphere .
When we decided to buy a house in Mexico, we wanted to locate to the safest and most secure region of the country, where crime rates are lower than in all U.S. cities and most towns.
The proximity of the reef and Yalku Lagoon and the numberless cenotes and underground caverns surrounding Akumal were definite draws. However, the primary draw was this great community, friendly and laid back, filled with interesting people from all over the U.S., Mexico and Canada.
