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.

Amazing !
The property was lovely great location it looks exactly like pics. We were able to walk or ride bikes to anywhere in the Akumal Village. Although the property did not have bikes in hand easy to rent nearby. Perfect place to relax and just enjoy the Ocean and Pool and great nearby restaurants. The Yal Ku Cenote Lagoon is within walking distance amazing snorkeling. Other Cenotes and Tulum nearby for other activities. We had an amazing experience everyone was helpful and kind the property manager put me in contact with the best Chef and Transportation company. Chef Antonio's crew was the best super professional Chef Jorge as well was the bomb! Mariano Transportation crew Nelson and Aldo were Awesome not enough words to express our gratitude. So lovely and just what we needed and were looking for to relax would go back for sure. So happy I found Casa Ligera thank you!!!

We were celebrating a bachelorette party, and the house was perfect for us. All the bedrooms have their own bath, everyone is well spread out, and the shared spaces are comfortable with unbelievable views. The downtown is an easy walk and felt very safe. Several cute restaurants and shops to explore. You MUST have chef Adrian prepare at least one meal for you…many of the ladies in our party felt it was the best meal they’d ever eaten. Highly recommend.

Simply gorgeous and wonderful
Casa Ligera was an absolute dream. We were 10 adults and there was more than enough space for all of us. The rooms are big and spread out so everyone feels like they have their own private space. We hardly even used the guest house since we had enough space for all of us in the main house. The beds and pillows were super comfortable! Great towels and shampoo conditioner etc. in all of the bathrooms. Cleaners came everyday to help mop and take out trash and check on if everything was ok. The property owners were truly SOOOOO incredible with responding to us. I asked a million questions before going and they were absolutely wonderful. Casa ligera is truly a dream and I highly recommend it for family or friends or anyone looking for a quiet, relaxed vibe! Akumal is really a cute little area and it is not difficult to get a driver to take you into tulum or Cancun. Highly highly recommend!

Great Place
We were a large group of 14 and had a difficult time finding an equitable distribution of rooms for all parties. A stay at the guest house is definitely not as ideal as staying in the house proper. Interfamily politics aside the house was fantastic. We were meticulously cared for by Maria and Alfredo who made certain the house and terrace were clean, well-stocked and in tip top shape. Minor issues (screen door off-track, toilet leak, torn wind sail) were dealt with immediately. At dinner we were glad to be pampered by Chef Emilio and his trusted sidekick Esteban. I would highly recommend taking advantage of chef. His meals were fantastic. The house is a great place for the whole family to hang out together in the morning and evening. It also acts as a terrific jumping off point for most daily excursions on the peninsula while residing in a sleepier, safer location close to Yal-ku.
