Award Winning Modern Beachfront Mansion In Akumal

Casa Ligera is The Most Famous & Highest Rated Waterfront home in Akumal! Open concept w/ 4 HUGE bedrooms in main house & 2 bedrooms in the guest house.The booking is for the entire Estate w/ a total of 6 bedrooms & 8 bathrooms!The infinity pool gives endless ocean views & the rooftop deck is the best place for sun tanning w/ views to Tulum & Playa Del Carmen! We are in a guard gated neighborhood in Akumal just a 5 minute walk to the best snorkeling w/ Sea Turtles! Daily maid service included.

THE HOUSE IS LOCATED IN AKUMAL BEACH which is THE BEST LOCATION IN THE RIVIERA MAYA between Playa Del Carmen and TULUM!! It is the #1 SNORKEL Spot in The Riviera Maya and is home to the largest population of Sea Turtles in the area!!

Casa Ligera has been decorated with the finest modern “Tulum Inspired” Natural Decorations. You will feel like you are in the middle of a Mexican Architectural Digest as you step drive into the gated compound. The estate consists of the main estate beachfront home with 4 huge bedrooms and every bedroom has its own bathroom. There is also a half bath in the main living area for easy access from the pool. There are two dining areas; one inside and one outside.

The guest house was remodeled in 2023 and is just a few steps from the main house and gives your group more space and privacy!! It has a living room with Smart TV, bedroom, bathroom, and full kitchen downstairs and another bedroom with private bathroom upstairs along with its own rooftop sitting area.

You will have the entire Estate completely to yourself. We have a caretaker and house keeper that are available for anything you might need.

We have a 2 person staff who will handle your check in and check out. They will be there throughout your stay for assistance. They provide daily light cleaning, laundry service and work everyday but Sunday.

Casa Ligera is in a Private Guard Gated Community and is only 25 minutes to Play Del Carmen and 25 minutes to Tulum! The house is right on the ocean and the best snorkeling in the entire region is only a 5 minute walk! There are multiple restaurants within 5-10 minutes walking or we can provide a private chef for your stay for a fee. Our chef is one of the most famous in the entire region and has prepared meals for countless celebrities.

There are reasonably priced taxis available throughout the region. We have a private car service that provides DISCOUNT transportation to and from the airport and to local attractions. The highway from the airport to the house is very nice and safe and so many people choose to rent a car. The house is in a guard gated neighborhood and the house has a private gated driveway so your vehicle will be secure while you are at our home as well.

The house is on the point like a “Light House” (Casa Ligera means Light House) so you get unobstructed water views both directions. The rocky point is directly behind the house so we don’t recommend swimming behind the house. You can walk out the back door or front door either direction 5 minutes and be at the Akumal Lagoon which is the best beach for swimming/snorkeling or be at the Yal Ku Lagoon which is one of the best Cenotes for swimming/snorkeling in all of Mexico!

Best trip ever!
We absolutely loved Casa Ligera. There were thirteen women in our group. The house had lots of communal space. Alfredo and Andrea were lovely and so helpful. We also had a chef come for two night's per the rental company's recommendation and it was such a treat! The house itself is beautiful, well maintained, in an amazing location. Walkable to the beach, on the water, with the nicest views imaginable. The pool was lovely as well. Could not recommend this place more.

Wonderful ladies trip
We were a group of 11 ladies celebrating a 40th birthday. We had an amazing time at Casa Ligera. Great pool for relaxing with amazing views. Awesome Rooftop patio. The chefs recommended by host were fabulous! Well worth it. A great deal and the food was amazing. A real special treat. And definitely a highlight. I would say the house was perfect for friends as there were lots of rooms and several with multiple beds. However, it would not be great for couples as most beds were doubles or twins with only one king. Also not great for elderly, anyone with mobility issues or young kids as there are lots of stairs to get to most rooms and there is no protection from the pool. The location was great. Easy walk to beach, restaurants etc. I would definitely recommend this villa to friends. Overall it was great!

A beautiful space to relax and make memories
Our family of 14 had a wonderful stay at Casa Ligera! It is the perfect spot for a large family or group of friends to get together. We loved the gorgeous ocean view and had a blast in the pool, hanging out in the spacious kitchen and living room, and watching the stars at night from the terrace. We swam with turtles in the bay down the road and it was a unique and fun experience. We also used the chef service for two days and it was well worth it! The only inconveniences we experienced was that some of the queen sized beds seem a bit small, so it can be a bit tight to share. Also, one of the AC units in one of the bedrooms didn't seem to be fully working properly. One of the on-site staff members tried to fix it, but it still wasn't cooling the room entirely. That aside, we would definitely come to Casa Ligera again!

Nice but dated
We had a great stay at Casa Ligera. The house is a great location (note that it not on the beach - but on the water.) Beautiful view of the ocean. A couple things that seemed different than the description. The house is a bunch of rooms connected by outdoor hallways. The only room in the main house is the primary. This house is NOT for young families. From the sunken living room where someone could just walk off the kitchen onto a concrete couch to the extremely steep and winding stairs to the primary to very little in the way of railings in the outdoor hallways to no railings or fencing around the pool, we all commented that it could be really scary for anyone under the age of about 8. Note that the white room is only 3 twin beds - no dresser or anywhere to put your things. I think the description says two beds. The maintenance team is top-notch. They were quick to address small issues and were very attentive. They even replaced the outdoor furniture when they realized that it wasn't up to their standards (we didnt even notice.). Really great team! Not sure we would go to Akumal again but the house worked for a fun Spring Break for our friends.

Extremely enjoyable community in Akumal. Great location, even though there was no sandy beach The Villa was situated in such a way that it allowed plenty of privacy and space Probably not the best place for small children too many stairs and no way to shut off the pool area. I don’t like how commercialized AKUMAL beach has become. We were constantly bombarded by sales people. It’s a shame because every year we’ve stayed there before. It was such a restful place to be In all I give the Villa a high rating.

Big house right on the ocean!
The house had so much space and privacy! It comes with household staff so laundry is done every day. We appreciated the Nespresso coffee machine and the location.
