“Such a relaxing five days in a magical place! The townhouse was completely stocked with what we needed, clean and well-decorated and comfortable for the four of us. The lap pools and infinity pools were fabulous and the yoga classes were nearly private- with a very good teacher! Tara was an efficient host, providing us with all we needed for our stay. I'd love to return at some point!”

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
Our home is located in Akumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico.
The community is located in a gated community within the gated Bahia Principe Property. It is a peaceful and relaxing setting situated within a natural setting in the jungle. It is close to the beautiful Riviera Maya beaches with Bahia Principe shuttles that will bring you to the beach or resorts to enjoy the amenities. The pools, wellness center, beach club and Bahia Principe amenities are available for you to use. You can make this vacation as peaceful or fun filled as you wish.
You can either stay busy visiting ruins, beaches, cenotes, area attractions, local restaurants or enjoy the peaceful TAO setting and enjoy the yoga, pools, nature ect. It is all up to you and what you desire, just enjoy it all!
We are open to most dates but being that we are new to this we will need to review all dates to make sure our home is available.
We have two dogs but neither dog shed as they are hypoallergenic. They won't be in the home as they will be with us. We aren't allowed to allow dogs for short term rentals due to our HOA regulations.
Our home was featured on House Hunters International in the episode Adios to the Daily Grind. The episode airs December 4th, 2018.
