You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Serene and cozy beachfront villa on a white sandy beach, pool, AC and WiFi!

As you enter the property from the private gated garden area to the rear, you are greeted with a open floor plan living, dining, and kitchen looking straight out to the beach and ocean via an entire wall of full length sliding glass doors. This room allows fantastic views of the Caribbean sea. The living room is comfortably furnished and features a large flat screen TV with Satellite and DVD, plus stereo. There is dining space for 8 people with ocean views, and a nice fully equipped kitchen with granite counter tops.

Also on the ground floor, there is a guest bedroom furnished with 2 single beds and adjoining guest bathroom. There are sliding doors leading straight out from this bedroom onto the private terrace and beach beyond.

Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms with king sized beds, plenty of closet space, nicely finished en suite bathrooms (ocean views from the shower!), and front and back terraces to give you both ocean and jungle views. There are sliding doors leading out to the ocean side terrace where you can relax on the cushioned seating and enjoy the view. This is also a lovely place to relax and watch the millions of stars in the Caribbean night sky.

In front of the villa is a shaded terrace, and a large private area of beach leading down towards the water. There are plenty of sun loungers, a shade palapa with sunken seating, and also a large outdoor dining table with seating for 8. Great for alfresco meals and beachfront cookouts!

To the rear of the villa, Serenity has ample off street parking, and also a brand new swimming pool (which is located through the door way on the lote next door) Guests of Villa Serenity have exclusive use of this swimming pool during their stay).

Villa Serenity is also conveniently located within a short walk from the Be Live Oasis all-inclusive resort and the Grand Bahia Principe resort where you can purchase day passes to use the resort facilities and entertainment. Bahia Principe Resort also has a shopping complex called Hacienda Dona Isabela which has gift shops, bar, and an ATM machine. Villa Serenity is also a short walk from the new Riviera Maya Golf Course. Riviera Maya Golf Club is the newest and most exciting golf course here in the Riviera Maya. Spanning 223 acres and set within 717 acres of tropical rainforest, this course was designed by Robert Trent Jones II.

If you are looking for beachfront vacation that is easy, comfortable and relaxing then this is the perfect house for you! Villa Serenity is a wonderful choice for both families and friends.

Fantastic house and location
We’ve stayed in multiple homes in this small stretch of Akumal and this property is one of the best! Great experience in every way, from check in to daily interaction with the housekeeper, security, the beach, etc. We loved our time here and 100% recommend the property to anyone seeking to escape to a quiet little piece of paradise.

Wonderful week on the beach
Villa serenity for our family of 6 perfectly. Private beach with life jackets, sand toys, and kayaks. Rita was so helpful in housekeeping and made us a delicious meal. Alejandro was available via text to answer questions and was a great resource for answering questions and booking excursions. Wonderful place by the ocean, yet away from the big resort feel.

Family getaway
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The house is beautiful and well maintained. Rita came every day and cleaned and made sure everything was in its place. The house always smelled so good when we would come back after enjoying our vacay out and about. She even cooked two meals for us that were very good! Eddie the grounds keeper was very attentive and so pleasant. He would help us out when we needed transportation to town. He does a nice job keeping the grounds maintained and raked the sand in front it the house every day. We were greatful that we stayed here and enjoyed walking the beach. The Beached Bikini was an added bonus a few doors down which is a fun bar and grill with great cocktails. We spent a day at the all inclusive resort Bahia Principe and a sunset cruise in Akumal. Thank you to our concierge David for being so attentive to our questions and helping us make decisions for the activities we wanted to take part of. All in all I give this place a 10/10 and we will be back! The sargasso seaweed was a drag but we didn’t let it wreck our trip! The pool is also a plus when we got hot and didn’t want to jump in the ocean. The neighbors next door were so kind and sweet.

Best beach vacation spot
Right on the beach a few meters from the water's edge. A uniquely beautiful modern villa with all conveniences in a really safe environment. Private parking inside a secured courtyard with a supplied automatic gate opener was great. The pool is perfect. Hot water for showers from what I assume was solar powered heaters on roof was available day and night. Raymond, our security guard, was there every evening and overnight to give us that sense of safety was appreciated. Ely was there every morning when we awoke cleaning and raking the white sand on our beach. Rita was there every day as well washing our dishes and keeping our rooms spotless every day as well. I can't say how much we appreciated the local staff making our stay a perfect one. The biggest and best surprise were the turtle nests clearly marked by the protective devices on "our beach" one of which was only 2 meters from our patio. On our third evening Raymond interrupted our chat on the patio with news that a hundred baby turtles from a nearby nest had hatched and the babies were headed the wrong way towards the lights between our villa and the one next door. He needed our help to direct them the other way around so they could head for the sea. My daughter grabbed a large plastic bowl filled with a little sand and we scooped up some of the babies that were trying to climb the wall and door to the pool area. She ran down to the water's edge and released the tiny turtles a couple meters from the waves on the beach. Now they knew which way to go on their own and they all flipped and flopped toward the waves. Meanwhile a local racoon type creature that had been hanging around the beach at night tried to attack some of the babies that had headed away from the water and my son and son-in-law shooed him away before he killed some of the baby turtles. The rare experience of having been present when the sea turtles hatched and made their way out to sea was something we all will cherish for our entire lives. Akumal is more or less halfway between Tulum and Playa del Carmen and is the perfect location to base your touring of Mayan ruins and Canotes from. We spent one afternoon on a floating and snorkeling tour of an underground river cave system called Cenotes Sac Actún, It was only a short drive away and was spectacular. We highly recommend this property as your next beach vacation spot!

Amazing!!!
Great house in a great location. Super private gated home with private security, daily cleaning, and on site maintenance. The house was big and spacious with amazing views of the private beach that leads you to the ocean. There is a pool onsite that was just for our use as well which made it that much more special. The house was fully stocked with everything you’d need. The location is about 20 to 30 minutes away from DT Playa del Carmen, or Tulum. If you’re looking for a lot to do I’d stay somewhere else, but if your looking to relax…this is the perfect place!

Property as represented on listing. Can't beat the location and beautiful beach. Great swimming and snorkeling right out your back door. If you are looking for a comfortable, relaxing vacation, this is it. Staff was very helpful and kept the property stocked and clean. Internet was surprisingly fast and reliable the week we were there. We did not rent a car, but if you had your own car, the setup is great with excellent parking inside a secure gate. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Wonderful vacation spot
Everything shown in the photographs is accurate: it is clean, spacious, and, most importantly, directly on the beach, which is virtually private. Even though the temperatures were in the 70s and 80s (upper 20s to lower 30s Celsius), there is a constant breeze that cools the air such that an air conditioner is not needed at night. There is a daily maid service (needed because of the sand), gardener, and a friendly security guard. We stayed for four days; it was not enough!!

Great Get Away
This is a fantastic property in a secluded spot. Although neighbors are close the beach is not crowded. We enjoyed the private spot along the beach. The pool is nice, but certainly not as private as the neighbors are close. The house is well equipped and has a great view from every room. It is appropriately sized for 4-6 guests. There is a bar, The Beached Bikini that is close and also a beach club Kay that has good food and breakfast. There is also a grocery delivery service from PDC that was reasonable and had good service. Our house manager and housekeeper were awesome. We had the water go out and Eli had it fixed quickly. He was also great at getting us cabs and offering other info. The reservations were easy and they communicated well and offered advice on excursions. This is a hidden gem, a little off the beaten path and secluded, which was exactly what we were looking for. We will be back and would recommend.

February 2020 Stay in Akumal
The house was fully equiped, very nicely upgraded and literally 100 steps from the back veranda to the ocean! The house/grounds/security staff were absolutely wonderful & a real luxury :) We loved the location - there's a big supermarket 15 minutes away by car and everything was easily accessible from the highway. Although Akumal was a little bit of a hike from the Cancun airport - once you're there, getting to Tulum or many of the cenotes were within a 1/2 hour drive. Our only complaint was that the living room couches weren't very comfortable - this is a very minor complaint since we spent most of our time either sleeping or outdoors & the beds and lounge chairs were exceptional!

Hidden gem
Just got back from a fantastic time in Mexico. The villa was excellent, everything we wanted. The location was quiet which suited us and yet close enough to some busier areas when we wanted. The staff were fantastic and kept the property in tip top condition. We loved the beach and the pool often using the pool in the evenings and in our second week when a large amount of seaweed turned up! We also had the delight of watching turtles coming up onto our beach to lay their eggs, simply a magical experience. Thank you so much for making our holiday so special

Relaxing and Great Spot!!
Home was beautiful! The location and beach access was amazing along with the people that the management company has come by the house daily were kind, helpful, and amazing! There's a bar down the beach that serves drinks and food which had a great bartender (Alex). Nightly, sea turtles would come up on the beach to leave their eggs! Amazing experience!! The only downside had nothing to do with the house, location, management company, or beach access. The only downside was mother nature which delivered very large amounts of seaweed.
