Villa Ka Kuxta

Pleasant 9 days at the Ka-Kuxta house. Spacious and clean home with a swimming pool and beach access. The swimming pool was a great feature for the grandkids in hot weather. Demitrio, house manager and staff helped us with our questions; very courteous. Thanks for all your help, recommendations, tasty dinner, etc. And, thanks for fishing supplies.
Sargassum – (floating plants) was a problem, apparently seasonal. It was cleaned from the beach early every morning – thanks.
Car rental recommended by Akumal Properties, the rental agent, worked out well.
Internet – Wi-Fi was working only one day out of nine. Apparently, a bigger problem.
VRBO – just took their fee. Not responded to our questions, rather disappointing.

We rented this home for a family reunion. The home was very nice and well appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking, there were plenty of towels, and the beds were nice. We had an issue with one of the AC units the first night and they ended up replacing the entire unit. The house manager responded quickly to any issues, which were few. The daily cleaning service, both inside and outside around the pool area, was wonderful. Overall, the house was fantastic and well situated in a safe and convenient area within easy driving distance of Tulum and Puerto Aventuras. I would return in a heart beat, but not until the seaweed situation is better as it made the beach in front of the house unusable. The rental car company they recommended for us was also excellent. My only complaint is that 2 of the 3 kayaks on property were inoperable and we were looking forward to using them. Again, overall a beautiful and well maintained home.

The house is better in person than the pictures show. The artwork is amazing. Plenty of room for 11 of us to spread out. 2 bedrooms face the ocean, 2 have garden views and casita has garden view. Manager Demetrio stopped by almost every day to see how we were doing and make sure we didnt need anything. Furmina (sp?) provided maid services each day and was much appreciated. We had a chef come to cook for us one night and she said she had been in many homes to cook and this was the nicest one she had been in. Pool and grounds were cleaned each day also. You can walk along the beach to the restaurant Lo-Ha (30 minute walk but beautiful)
The house is a duplex with same floor plan on each floor, downstairs a bit more casual, kitches on each floor. 4 bathrooms, upstairs ocean facing bedroom has en suite bath. They are gracious enough to supply you with all kinds of snacks upon arrival and the only thing I would suggest is make the snacks more Mexican, maybe pico de gallo and guacamole with chips. Everything was processed packaged food. You will need a car to get anywhere as the house is on a private gated road. Tulum is 20 minutes away, 4 restaurants less than 2 miles away. Lots to do in the area for activities too.
Overall we were thrilled with this house and the care we received.

Stayed with our family consisting of 5 couples. Worked out great with the 4 rooms in the main house and 1 in the guest house. Having 2 kitchens in the main house was a huge bonus, had dinner upstairs overlooking the ocean and kept snacks and drinks on the main floor for easy access.

Couple of things for the owners to consider.2 of the beds were very hard, I liked it but my wife didn't. Beds were also squeeky and made noise with any little movement.

Staff was excellent and courteous, did a great job. Having security at the entrance of the neighborhood and walking the beach kept worries low for those concerned.

Ka Kuxta was perfect for our family’s needs—a comfy home away from home offering everything we needed and more! Our daughter got married at a neighboring villa and we needed five en suite bedrooms for our siblings which—counting the casita—Ka Kuxta has. It also gave us a spacious gathering area where we could all sit around and chat, and a large outdoor patio with plenty of loungers. The pool is relatively small but aside from the children, few used it. The ocean is warmer and there’s a beautiful sand beach not far away. We also swam, kayaked, and snorkeled off the beach at the villa—but bring reef shoes and walk out carefully. It’s rocky for the first 20 yards or so. Also, this location works best with a rental car unless you’re happy to stick around the house or pay for a lot of cabs (about $20 round trip to Akumal restaurants and shops, more to are attractions). The house manager will drive you for less , so that’s another option that we used once or twice when we had more riders.

This is a comfortable family vacation home, ideal for larger families or groups. With all its seating space and wonderfully equipped outdoor space, there is room for all.

We LOVED our stay here. The pool and the ocean were incredible. The house was perfect for 2 families. We are definitely going to come back!

Great Location! Beautiful sunrise from the roof. Beautiful interior. Perfect place for my family of 10. Needed some maintenance. Sliding glass doors need replaced. Took a while to figure out how to work the AC. One of the bathrooms has a weird odor. Easy access to major attractions. It is beachfront but is very rocky. Bring water shoes. The property manage and Housekeeper were very nice and accommodating. We had a great vacation.

This was a perfect place for our entire family to enjoy our Christmas vacation together, 13 people ages 5 to 73. The house is beautiful and comfortable, the pool and beach are amazing, and the management staff was extremely helpful to us in many ways. Could not have been better. The only thing we wish we had known in advance is that credit cards are not terribly useful here and it is very difficult to get cash, so good idea next time to carry a lot of cash.

super vlla pleasant house staff.snorkelling superb and fun in the kayaks.location of villa cenotes.enjoyed quad bike ride through jungle.golf course a little expensive.great food close by in akumal.turtles in akumal bay.kids loved it

Everything wonderfull. Demetrio and al the staff took care of everything we needed. The house is spacious and perfectly located. Definetly would recomen

VERY ENJOYABLE

we could not find a better place to stay the whole family (10 adults and a 3 month baby). Villa Ka Kuxta is gorgeous and full of space for everyone. We felt at home, we have enjoyed everyday at the beach, pool. The villa has beautiful decoration and the garden is amazing. The villa was the most important factor to make our holidays in family so enjoyable , everyone is looking forward to come back someday.

A perfect vacation spot with pool, beach and gorgeous and spacious house! Also, the people who work at the house (housekeeper/cook, gardner and manager) are helpful and kind.

We had a terrific week staying at Ka Kuxta. We were four adults, and four kids -- two 4 year olds, a 2 year old, and 1 infant. The pool/beach combination is wonderful to have, as well as the kayaks for an ocean workout. (Though parents of young children should note that the pool does not have any safety fence around it.) The breeze coming in off the ocean is amazing, and we did not need AC on during the day.

The bedrooms were all comfortable, and our group mostly convened (when inside) in the first floor dining/living room area, which also has a nice kitchen counter for eating. There is also Direct TV, and a huge DVD collection.

The house manager, Señor D, is very friendly and very helpful, as is the rest of the team that maintains the villa. There is also a security gate manned at all times, as well as security officers that patrol the property - all very friendly.

The only issue I would point out is that the amount of foliage between Ka Kuxta and the houses on either side was not nearly as robust as in some of the pictures, so there is not quite as much privacy as it looks like. But it should not be filed as a complaint, as it did not affect our trip (or our rating of the villa) but something to be aware of.

It's an very easy drive to Akumal for snorkeling at Ya-Kul or dinner on the beach at La Buena Vida. And it's about a 20 minute drive to Tulum, where we had several dinners. You're also about 25 minutes from Xcaret, an excellent eco-adventure park that is great for kids.

It's a great house, in a great location, supported by a great staff. Highly recommended!

The house has a lot of space and a gorgeous beach. We enjoyed so much kayaking and swimming with the turtles near by, the villa exceeded my expectations! I'll rent it again.

Villa Ka Kukta was a little paradise for all my family 5 adults and 7 children.We all had a wonderful time. Akumal is a wonderful place to stay, the villa is in a secluded location and we really appreciated that. Akumal Playa and Village are very nice, we enjoyed the restaurants and the boutiques there.
It is easy to visit some of the Maya sites: we went to Tulum, Koba and Chichen Itza.
We enjoyed Christmas Mass in Chemuyil, people there were very friendly, in fact all mexicans are really very nice.
The management and staff at the villa were perfect, they cooked nice dinners for us and did everything they could to make our stay pleasurable.
We were sad to leave and sorry we could not stay longer (the trip from France is quite long and tiresome, but my son and son-in-law had to go back to work, a week is too short...)
All of us will keep wonderful memories of this awsome place and we wish you a great 2103.

This was our third time for a 2-week vacation at villa Ka Kuxta with our whole family. Parents, children, spouses and grand children.
The villa is an ideal location for such an occasion with lots of privacy in the villa and be/do things together at the same time. Although the travel from the Netherlands is very long we think we may be back in future again.

We found the villa to be very well set up for our family stay. The service staff were very welcoming and hospitable. We loved the location and general set up. The mgmt company was very helpful in organizing our stay and we would work with them again.

This was our first time and it won't be our last. Everything was as described and we felt at home from the very start. What a great way to enjoy a week in Mexico. Thanks to the staff on-site and management for making this the first of many trips away from the resort crowds.
