About this property

Tao Inspired Living, Beach 50 mts, Beach Club In front,Activities & Restaurants!

Imagine yourself in one of the most peaceful, laidback towns in the Riviera Maya. Picture quiet beaches, perfect little beach restaurants, great snorkeling, and one of the best spots to meet a sea turtle or two. Picture a turquoise sea and gentle lagoons, swaying palm trees, soft white sand. Now picture yourself in your very own villa, ideal for sharing with family or friends. Can you see it? It is real and it can be reserved for you today: Villa Tao A-3 in the lovely village of Akumal, ideally located between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, and situated a mere 50 meters from the beach.

This lovely 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom villa features the clean, modern design of Actual Studios, as well as marble flooring throughout. The open living area provides maximum flow between the cozy living room and dining room, and the well-equipped kitchen. The living room features a leather sofa and two chairs, a 50” TV, SKY satellite, and WiFi connectivity. The fully-equipped kitchen offers stainless steel appliances and the granite counters offer plenty of workspace along with a breakfast bar adjacent to the dining room. Oversized sliding doors provide plenty of light as well as access to the garden terrace. A washer and dryer is provided, along with beach amenities such as towels and an umbrella.

The main floor bedroom features a queen-sized bed and en-suite bathroom. An additional upstairs queen-sized room has an en-suite bath and a small balcony which overlooks the garden. The upstairs master bedroom features a king-sized bed, 42” LCD television and small balcony as well as en-suite bath. All of the bathrooms feature marble showers, hair dryers and all basic toiletries.

The most outstanding features of the villa are its two beautiful roof terraces: one, an ocean-view space with a comfortable sofa, chairs and a maneuverable aluminum roof which can be open for sun or closed for shade. The other overlooks the garden area and includes two upholstered chairs with footstools and a table for two.

Our guests can enjoy the luxuries of the Jungle Fish beach club which is conveniently located only a few steps from your front door. The club has a pool (please inquire about pool hours as they may change seasonally), swim up bar, umbrellas, lounge chairs, restaurant and a roof terrace with additional seating and a magnificent ocean view. We suggest arriving early to reserve chairs and umbrellas as it is first come first serve. The facility use is free with food and beverage consumption. It is at the discretion of the beach club to any policy change or fees, as we have no direct affiliation.

And that's not all, you have access to the TAO Wellness Center that offers a gymnasium, exercise lap pools, yoga classes, etc. and Bahia Principe Resort facilities! Applicable fees do apply at both locations please inquire!

Akumal is a true paradise with plenty of retreat-like quiet when you need it and lots of activity when you crave it. Great restaurants, turtle watching, and superb snorkeling are only steps away. The location is perfect for day-trips into Tulum and Playa del Carmen; you are also very close to crystal clear cenotes, ancient Mayan ruins, quaint colonial towns and all that the fabulous Mayan Riviera has to offer.

Extras Available: Pack n' Play, Air Mattress

*Electrical consumption will be monitored. In the case of excessive use it could be charged to the guest. Please turn off AC when you leave the condo for the day!

Super House; Super Location
My wife and I stayed here for a week with our two college-aged kids. This property is in a quiet, leafy neighborhood of villas and beach homes and is directly across the street from the Jungle Fish Beach Club. The house is very well maintained and incredibly well equipped, with beach chairs, water shoes, beach towels, a gas grill, a wide selection of food storage containers in the well equipped and stocked kitchen (including paper towels, detergent for the dishwasher and coffee filters), a large capacity washer and dryer, laundry detergent and fabric softener. The bathrooms were well stocked with tissue, shampoo, conditioner and lotion. Just show up with clothes and you're set to go! We loved walking down to the end of the road each evening and then out onto the beach. The patio at the back of the house is very serene - we saw a monkey one night swinging from tree to tree! Tulum (which is overrun with tourists and traffic) is only 15-20 minutes away. Dos Ojos Cenote is less than 15 minutes away (a must see on a hot day). Snorkeling at Yal Ku (the second entrance - 20 pesos more per person, but well worth it) was fantastic, as were the Caba Ruins (so pleasantly shady), only 1 hour away. Our best meals out were in Akumal pueblo; restaurants on the beach and at the Jungle Fish Beach Club were also excellent, but 2-3 times more expensive. Last, Angela, the property manager, was incredibly responsive, always responding to my texts within minutes. An easy FIVE stars.

Loved it!
This condo was perfect for the three of us on a girls trip. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. There was a closet with beach chairs, snorkel equipment, umbrellas, etc. There was also a basket under the TV that had sunscreen, insect repellant, aloe, and first aid items. There was shampoo, conditioner, and lotion in the bathrooms. It is located in a nice secluded neighborhood with a 24/7 security staff. Directly across the street from this unit is the Jungle Fish Beach Club. We ate dinner there every night. It was delicious and the staff was amazing! There were a few people in the neighborhood that live there several months out of the year, and they were all so nice and treated us like we were their neighbors. It is a nice location, between Playa del Carmen and Tulum. It is also a 20 minute walk down the beach to the beach town of Akumal where you swim with turtles and visit all the different restaurants and shops. It would be ideal to have a rental car at this location, but we didn't, so we took the collectivos to the places that we wanted to go. The management for this property was great to work with and were always prompt to reply to any messages. We only had two issues at the property. 1) The dehumidifier in the unit was so loud that I had to turn it off at night because it kept waking me up. 2) One night it rained really hard and water rushed in under the patio door into one of the upstairs bedrooms. But overall we had a great stay.

Family wedding and reunion
We enjoyed our stay even though we didn't spend much time in our condo with all of the activities we had going on related to the wedding. We loved the convenience to the Jungle Fish restaurant right across the street. We also enjoyed the rooftop covered patio and appreciated the ample supply of filtered water.

Xmas in Mexico
The condo had plenty of space for the five of us. The kitchen is well appointed so we were able to cook all the meals at home that we cared to. However the beach club is directly across the street and they have excellent food and access to the beach. The staff was so friendly and fun! We could walk to Akumal on the beach, or we could drive. That was super convenient. Although we did not need to do much laundry, I enjoyed having the dryer to dry our towels between uses- the humidity keeps things fairly damp. It was a very nice location and vacation!

Well appointed
The owner has thought of everything to make a beach stay comfortable even down to the sunblock. We wanted for nothing. Even the sheets were soft (always important after too much sun!) The location is safe, quiet and beautiful- plus being across the street from an oceanfront restaurant/pool- brilliant! We could easily hear the ocean from the condo- as well as view it from the roof top terrace. It was the perfect home to return to after a long day of shopping and exploran. Setting was perfect for our party of 5 and made conversation so much easier. Thank you for all of the little touches to your home that made us feel welcomed and cared for!

Long awaited get away
We had the pleasure of staying at Tao for 7 nights & it was amazing. The location is close to Akumal town as well as a short drive to tulum. Right a cross the street was a beautiful pool which the kids would have lived in if they had a choice ! The jungle fish served Affordable lunch and dinner all day 12-8 . Be sure to ask about there fresh caught fish of the day . The Mayan whole fish is well worth the wait! The condo was a great home base & had 3 showers & and very well stocked kitchen (utensils & cookware ) . Thank you for having us & we look forward to next time !

Lovely wonderful modern house surrounded by trees
A lovely wonderful modern house surrounded by palm trees and just across from Akumal trail that follows the beach. It had everything we needed to make for a very comfortable and relaxing stay. There were palm trees and vegetation everywhere and the roof top patio made it so cool to be at the same level as the tops the trees. Lots of lovely birds and other wildlife all around to watch. We also loved having the Jungle Fish beach club/restaurant just across the street and use their pool. It is one of the better restaurants in the area. You will need water shoes to use the rocky beach in front of beach club, but there is the beautiful sandy Playa Akumal beach just a few minutes north walking via Akumal beach trail. That is where you see all the boats and groups snorkeling to see the turtles. Access to Playa Akumal is free via the trail. Playa Akumal area has also many great restaurants. Make sure to visit Akumal Pueblo west side of bridge and walk around; it is just a short drive away; it is a small Mexican town but with many walls covered with amazing paintings (like the ones you see painted on the bridge) that are added during the yearly Akumal Arts Festival.

Fabulous location, Wonderful Condo
I can’t say enough good things about this property! The location, right across the street from the Jungle Fish beach club was perfect. With beach and pool access, the food and drinks were delicious and the wait staff made us feel like family. When we wanted more dining options, the town of Akumal was just a 15 minute walk down the beach. As for the property itself, the amenities were really thoughtful, including a closet that had extra hats, snorkels and beach chairs. The roof deck was a great location for watching the sunset, and the living room was comfortable for hanging out. There is even a gas grill for the one dinner we decided to eat in. The management was immediately responsive when we had a minor issue, and it was taken care of in a timely fashion. We are already planning out next trip to Akumal, and this property will be on the top of our list to return to.

Exceptional Property for Bachelor Party
This property is beautiful! We booked it last minute and the management company was very accommodating. I actually want to own a property similar to this so it was an excellent opportunity to review what it looked like. Thank you for your hospitality. Not a single bad thing to say. It was actually even nicer than the property we rented I believe.

Awesome Condo
I really fell in love with with condo!! Not one detail was left out when it came to amenities!! EVERYTHING that you would have in your home will be here. All appliances were new and in good working condition. The condo itself is modern and I can't say enough about the kitchen because I love to cook!!! Its an entertainment paradise!! The bedrooms and bath were all super clean and the host provided shampoo, soap and body lotion!! It was super hot outside but the air-conditioners left the home so comfortable!! There is also a water dispenser with plenty of bottled water so you will not need to buy water. Just fill up your personal water bottle!! The roof top patio was also a plus. We would sit there late night, listen to some music, drink beer and tall and laugh on a comfortable patio set!! The pool is just across the street and has a bar and restaurant. The beach was too rocky for us but we did not rent the condo for the beach. Akumal is a great central point to go visit Talum, Playa del Carmen and lots of Cenotes!!! We really had no time to go to the beach because of the many things to do there!! I recommend you get a rental car!!! I could say so much more but do not want to make this too long. Erin answered all my emails in little time!! I would recommend this to my family and friends and would definitely stay here again when ever I'm in the area!! Thank you Erin for a great experience!!!

I was able to stay in this lovely condo for 5 days and the entire experience was amazing. The description and other reviews are very accurate! I found that the rooftop was the coolest place to hang out. Above the trees with a healthy view of the ocean and surrounding areas. Will definitely stay here again when I am back in the neighborhood.

Immaculate property! Exceptional response by owner
Just returned from a few days at this property. The A3 unit is beautiful and well stocked. We were impressed with the amount of cooking basics present in the unit. The unit is located in a tranquil setting and right across the way from the Jungle Fish beach club. We would stay here again, if in the area. Susan responded quickly to any questions we had and helped our party arrange golf at the Bahia Principe course. There was a bit of confusion about the correct rate and we were eventually able to secure the owner rate ($80/round). One thing to note is that the pools pictured in the listing are not easily accessible to the unit. The pools pictured are part of the Tao Wellness facility, which is a 5+ minute drive away. A person could walk, but this would involve crossing a major highway. The Tao Wellness facility offers free yoga in the morning, which we enjoyed several times. The pool pictured is at the beach club (with the red umbrella), meaning you need to spend $$ at the beach club to use it. This was a little disappointing, but the food and drinks at the Jungle Fish were well priced. We visited the Bahia Principe Tulum beach one of the days. It was a nice bonus to have access to the beaches. However, all of the beaches were heavily covered in sargassum when we visited. The beach directly in front of the A3 unit was very rocky and also sargassum covered. This did not impact our trip much, but it is something to consider if you want to walk in & swim.

A great property with lots of space and comfort
We had a great holiday in Akumal. The house was exactly as described and easy to find. Communication was easy and reliable. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. We had everything we could possibly need in the kitchen, and lots of towels and toiletries in the bathrooms. The beach club across the way had friendly staff, and the food was delicious and good value. We enjoyed the pool and the beach there and also explored the surrounding area. Access to the Bahia Principe resort was a plus and we enjoyed their pools and beach one day. The location was central and we traveled into Tulum and Playa Del Carmen on day trips. I would recommend this property for families or couples traveling together.

Fabulous accommodations!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tao A-3. It was very clean, modern, centrally located along the Riviera Maya. The property is conveniently located in front of the beach club — just a few steps away. The pool and food served at the beach club was great. Just a note that the beach is very rocky and really not easy to swim — you’ll definitely need water shoes. However it’s nice for a dip or just to walk along the shore. Inside the property you have everything you need — kitchen well stocked, plenty of bedroom towels & linens. All the beds were super comfortable and plenty of pillows too. The air conditioning worked fabulously all throughout the property. We really loved the property and especially appreciated how clean and new everything felt. Also the rental company (Latinlatitudes) was very helpful and responsive to all our needs. Thank you!
