We had stunning views, a fully equipped kitchen, and a caretaker who was incredible. Alberto and his wife Cynthia were incredibly welcoming, helpful and hardworking. We hope to return to Villa Gauguin in the future. It was an incredible stay!! ##### Jonnifer M.

Alberto, the caretaker, was great and took care of every need. Views and experience was great. Looking forward to returning again soon.. ##### Dayontice B. Séjour de 5 nuits en avril 2021 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Alvaro L. 25 janv. 2021 Points forts : Propreté #### Wonderfull seaside villa My family and I stayed in Villa Gauguin for Christmas and New Year's holidays in 2020\. I would like to praise first the reservation team of Akumal Villas (Martina and Maria). They made seamless our reservation, check-in and additional services contracting process (car rental, chef, taxis, etc). They responded quickly to all our questions and remained on top during our stay. Thanks very much!! The property was clean and the housekeepers were friendly, attentive and efficient in keeping everything clean. Alberto also was always keen to help, and available to drive us to the beach or the supermarket and even helped us organize a birthday party for my son (piñata included). The villa has a very nice location. The town of Akumal is nicely placed in between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, and Villa Gauguin has a privileged location by the sea. Although there's no sand by the villa, it's possible to safely dive into the sea or walk/swim to a beach close by. Otherwise, the main Akumal beach is just 8 minutes walk away from the Villa. Highly recommended!! ##### Alvaro L. Séjour de 11 nuits en décembre 2020 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Julie I., Lake Geneva, Wisconsin USA 2 mars 2020 Points forts : Propreté #### Pinching myself! On line, this property obviously looks amazing--the pictures don't lie--well maybe a little--it is even better in person! Things to know: House features--there are lots of stairs, so be aware if this is an issue. The 5th bedroom is on the main floor and does not have a full bath (a half bath is right next door). Beds are comfy, towels are plentiful, internet/cell reception are fine. TV was great for movie night. A few snorkeling items are available. Plenty of seating areas to have a quiet moment on your own. Loungers and cushions are in good shape. No funky smells like some rentals have in warm climates. I do wish there had been a full length mirror. Staff--Alberto and Cynthia were amazing. They don't really speak English, but have a handy translation ap, that let us communicate quite clearly. Alberto has chef training and cooked us 2 wonderful dinners (coconut shrimp and beans to die for). He was readily available to answer questions and when we had some water issues due to a faulty pump switch though he couldn't fix the problem, he called on the property manger who had someone fix the situation right away. They were thorough in cleaning the house and unobtrusive. (Note, they do not put the loungers back at the end of the day--guests are responsible for that--but I'm sure if we had asked he would have). The area--everything you could want to do, see, eat, drink, buy is all in easy distance either by foot or golf cart. A cab can take you to other attractions with in a half hour or less drive. Simply put, the only thing you really need to do is look out to the water and enjoy. Safety--I felt completely safe in our area, even taking morning walks by myself. The house does have a big safe for locking away valuables. As in any area, you want to be vigilant, but I'd rate Villa Gauguin very safe. Other--there is little to no night life, of the 10 or so restaurants in the immediate area we visited 3 (2 of them twice) and all were very good (Que Onda was my favorite). Yal Ku is worth it and much easier than trying to go snorkeling from the rocks in front of the villa. Truly, I had to pinch myself multiple times during our week at Villa Gauguin--it was fantastic! ##### Julie I. Séjour de 7 nuits en février 2020 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Wendy and Dan R., Chicago, USA 20 janv. 2020 Points forts : Propreté #### 2nd Family Reunion The 10 day stay at Villa Gauguin was a family reunion, 8 adults & 2 children, for the 2nd year in a row. The owner has always responded very quickly to any question and is in close contact with the on-site Caretakers, Alberto and Cynthia. A car is essential. Our familyloved this architecturally & artistically beautiful, comfortable and immaculately clean oceanfront home again this year... a home with a spectacular view of the Caribbean! All accommodations and amenities are true as written. We used the heated pool, Internet, cable TV,, air conditioning, kitchen, and spacious rooms daily. Laundry is available for a charge. Hot showers are easily accessible. The on-site caretakers, Alberto and Cynthia, are friendly, gracious, and responsive to any need one might have. They will cook meals the guests choose from a suggested menu and at an agreed time guests want. Breakfast for the family varied everyday: pancakes, ham & scrambled eggs, huevos motuleños, to name a few; and always with a platter of fresh fruit.The guacamole & homemade salsas were excellent! 4 Dinners were prepared... including fajitas, tacos with chicken or shrimp + shrimp cocktail. Alberto & Cynthia are good cooks who will only improve as they gain experience. The number and variety of sightseeing options in the greater Riviera Maya are exceptional: superior family water parks and eco-parks, Mayan ruin sites, children’s zoos, shopping, cooking classes. The family activities were varied and different between the 2 vacations because of all the choices. Akumal North is a gated community with restaurants, shops, small grocery stores, an ATM and snorkeling activities a person can walk, drive or ride a bike to. It is very safe! We hope to return to this paradise again! ##### Wendy and Dan R. Séjour de 10 nuits en janvier 2020 ### 8/10 – Bien #### Marci D. 20 janv. 2020 Points forts : Propreté #### Wonderful views, relaxing week.

Séjour de 3 nuits en août 2019 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Allyson S. 14 août 2019 Points forts : Propreté #### Wonderful stay! We had a group of 10 women for a bachelorette party, and this house was absolutely perfect. Photos don’t even do it justice, and the house staff was superb. The food and drinks they prepared were great and it was so nice to not need to think about getting groceries or cooking or cleaning up while on vacation. I would definitely recommend this house! ##### Allyson S. Séjour de 3 nuits en août 2019 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Randy F. 20 juin 2019 Points forts : Propreté #### Akumal family getaway Our extended family of 10 found Villa Gauguin perfect for a week of relaxation. The home is in an awesome setting with remarkable views and easily accommodates a large group. The bedrooms are large and comfortable. The upstairs TV room great for evening hangouts and game playing. The downstairs sitting room for relaxing with morning coffee while watching the sunrise. You can’t beat the view from the pool. Floating with drinks, chips, pico de gallo, guacamole and ceviche are a must. The lagoon is great for cooling off and having some snorkel fun. Really nice to have access right out front. The caretakers Carlos and Nayla prepared excellent meals and we tested most of the menu. Be flexible when ordering fish as they only buy what was caught that morning. It was always delicious. Having breakfast prepared before daytrips was nice. Final dinner/feast- Cochinita Pibil (cooked all day & delicious) plus Lobster plus Garlic Shrimp plus Coconut Shrimp. Still not sure how they were able to pull it off. If you’re feeling a bit tired, Que Onda restaurant is across the street. Everywhere in Akumal is good. Take some pesos and head across the bridge into Akumal for street tacos. Enjoy your visit. Akumal is a great little hideaway. ##### Randy F. Séjour de 8 nuits en juin 2019 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Voyageur vérifié 6 juin 2019 Points forts : Propreté #### Spectacular and Relaxing This home is exactly how it was presented on VRBO. It was spectacular and very relaxing. The real bonus of this home are the caretakers. Francisco and Gladis made our visit extra special. They couldn't have been more accommodating for any and everything we asked. We had unlimited margaritas and guacamole every day all day. The patio overlooking the ocean was so spectacular there was no reason to have meals anywhere else - and they were all delicious. It was easy to get in and out of the ocean and we snorkeled the first couple of days. The water did get rough the last couple of days, but we walked the 1 block walk to Yal-Ku Lagoon and snorkeled there in the brackish water. I would recommend to go early - lots of tour busses by mid-afternoon. Also, as a bonus, there is a small restaurant literally across the street where we wandered over for afternoon cocktails and snacks. Kudos to the Owners - it was warm and inviting and even the property manager stopped over to give us some tips just in case anyone got hurt snorkeling. I gave it 5 Stars and will return. ##### Voyageur vérifié Séjour de 3 nuits en avril 2019 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Matt C. 14 mai 2019 #### Loved it! Beautiful home. We had 5 couples. Great location on lagoon. Pool was magnificent. You should have no worries at all when booking. ##### Matt C. Séjour de 4 nuits en mai 2019 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Evie C., Solana Beach 1 avr. 2019 #### Magical setting for a family getaway Arriving at this home situated by the Lagoon in Akumal is exciting. The home itself is architecturally beautiful and the furnishings suit it perfectly. There are four good size bedrooms with private baths on the second floor (plus a large media room with futons) and a bedroom on the first floor. Plenty of opportunity from every room to enjoy the total glass exterior facing east and a perfect size pool for fun with the kids. Beyond the infinity pool are rocks that lead into the lagoon and all of us age 3-70 were able to utilize the rocks to gain entry for swimming and snorkeling. The rental includes daily housekeeping and a cook which is a pleasure , making vacation much more of a vacation. A/C worked perfectly. There are some good restaurants close by and Tulum is about 40 min south. Great beaches include those that are private reserves. Definitely drive to Coba and hire a guide, swim the Cenotes , zip line and cavern tours close by this is a great way to have a family vacation and at the end of the day to come home to this gem of a house is just wonderful. ##### Evie C. Séjour de 6 nuits en mars 2019 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Gigi J. 12 mars 2019 #### Beautiful home, amazing view and superb service I just wanted to say thank you for everything. Your home was beautiful and with amazing views, and the lagoon infront for snorkeling is such a plus!!! The pictures does not do it justice, it's definitely a house one must experience :) Francisco and Gladys were incredible. Francisco definitely makes the best margaritas and is an amazing cook. He was incredibly helpful and super respectful. I would definitely want to come back in the future. I highly recommend this home!!! ##### Gigi J. Séjour de 4 nuits en mars 2019 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Wendy and Dan R., Chicago, USA 17 janv. 2019 #### Villa Gauguin: An elegant home offering location, hospitality, the morning sunrise and ocean views Our family vacation included 8 adults and 2 grandchildren ages 16 mo. and 51/2 yrs. The owner tended to our pre-arrival needs by answering all questions within a few hours. We were greeted by Francisco and Gladys, the on site caretakers, who could not be more gracious, helpful, and responsive to any needs or questions! Truly, they are ambassadors for Villa Gauguin and Yucatán! The home is immaculate, with beautiful artwork and stunning views of the ever changing ocean . All rooms are spacious and comfortable. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large with ample closets for storage. The beds are comfortable. Dining al fresco on the patio is also available. The infinity pool is large with a shallow pool for toddlers. It can be heated for an additional cost. The pièce de résistance was having Francisco and Gladys prepare delicious meals for the family from their own extensive menu.(a modest additional cost) They are accomplished cooks! We found dining “at home” freed us up from meal prep & clean up making our vacation relaxing and cost effective. With advance notice, our final dinner included guacamole and shrimp ceviche, lobster tail, shrimp, octopus with sauce and pargo filet- all done on the grill, salad, grilled zucchini and eggplant. Francisco’s frozen margaritas...the best! Unique activities are a short 15-30 minute drive Some of us enjoyed Xel-Ha(fabulous!), Tulum Ruins, & Playa del Carmen shopping (restaurants galore). Akumal is very laid back and quiet offering snorkeling in the lagoons, walking the streets, enjoying oceanside restaurants and bars. It’s a very safe area! Several bodegas & small grocery store provide essentials. Beaches are available, but bring your water shoes/sandals as the shore is rocky. Our family experience exceeded our expectations at Villa Gauguin. We look forward to another vacation stay next year! Dan and Wendy, Chicago ##### Wendy and Dan R. Séjour de 9 nuits en janvier 2019 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Stephanie T. 8 nov. 2018 #### Incredible Property Our stay at Villa Gauguin was wonderful. The home is beautiful - plenty of space to spread out. Sizeable bedrooms with nearly all having en suite bathrooms. The icing was, of course, the incredible views and enjoying constant dips in the pool. Highly recommend utilizing the staff for cooking service. We did for about 80% of our meals and were very pleased. Delicious. Recommend renting a car if you want to explore the area. Or, ask Francisco to order your taxis for you. ##### Stephanie T. Séjour de 4 nuits en octobre 2018 ### 8/10 – Bien #### WILLIAM P. 13 août 2018 #### Gorgeous Home with excellent staff The house was so much more than we expected. There was lots of room for our family of 7\. Most every room had a fabulous view of the ocean. Francisco and Gladys were delightful. They served delicious meals and kept the house perfect. The kids were is the pool most of every day and loved swimming in the lagoon. We were there is August and it was really not. The AC did great in the bedrooms, but did not cool the great room enough to use except in the evening. Otherwise it was a 5 star visit. I highly recommend a visit to Villa Gauguin. ##### WILLIAM P. Séjour de 7 nuits en juillet 2018 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Nicole A. 18 juill. 2018 #### Amazing Rental Home and Location We had an amazing time staying at Villa Gauguin! Dominique kindly accommodated our group of 15 adults and we stayed for 8 nights. The house itself is spectacular and is even better than the pictures. When you walk through the front door, you have a breathtaking view of the ocean. The backside of the house is completely glass, making for great views from the majority of the rooms. The house was spacious for our group and had plenty of room for all of us. We had Francisco and Gladys prepare our first two meals, which were fantastic, and we filled the 2 fridges with groceries and cooked during the rest of our stay. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals and we made good use of the blender and dishwasher. Francisco and Gladys cleaned daily, which was no small task given the size of our group, and were available if we needed help with anything. They are extremely kind and always had a smile on their faces. The rooms are large and each outfitted with A/Cs, which are on auto-timers based on the time of day. The pool was a good temperature and we enjoyed using the lounge chairs and the gigantic outdoor table for dinner several nights. Wild iguanas visit the backyard daily and we saw agoutis and coatis on a few occasions. The house is right off of the ocean and there was wonderful snorkeling steps away. The nearby lagoon had rays and fish, and we even rented a boogie board to catch some waves behind the house. The house is inside a gated community that includes a great beachfront bar and we felt secure during our entire stay. We rented 2 minivans and had easy parking for both. We would've used a washer and dryer if available but that is the only thing I would change about this house. We will definitely visit again and highly recommend this rental! ##### Nicole A. Séjour de 8 nuits en juin 2018 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### anjunette a., fox island wa 22 avr. 2018 #### Fabulous We absolutely loved Villa Gauguin. We came with our kids ages 14-24 party of 8 for my 50th birthday. We arrived very early before check in and it wasn’t a problem to drop our luggage off. Then we grabbed a cab and went to the Monkey Sanctuary for a few hours when we arrived back at the Avila Francisco and Gladys prepared yummy margaritas and snacks for us a few hours before our dinner they prepared. The home is beautiful and spacious the daily maid service was awesome they watch over every need you had. I ran most mornings and cane back to the lovely breakfast they prepared. The view from the pool area is so pretty. We spent a lot of time just hanging by the pool. If you leave just be sure to lock the doors and lock up valuables in the safes. Just like you would anywhere. The ate at the the three restaurant that are very close We rented a golf cart which was great We look forward to going back. ##### anjunette a. Séjour de 7 nuits en avril 2018 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### OLIVIER H. 11 avr. 2018 #### Un séjour magnifique !!! Nous avons passé une semaine de rêve dans un endroit de rêve. La maison est lumineuse, grande et propre. Francisco et Gladys sont accueillants et très serviables. Ils nous ont donné de bons conseils lors de notre séjour et cuisinent très bien. L’endroit est idyllique pour faire du snorkeling, il y a beaucoup de poissons à observer, tout le monde a adoré. Si nous avons le bonheur de revenir dans cette région, nous reviendrons à Villa Gauguin, sans aucune hésitation. Merci pour tout et à la prochaine !! ##### OLIVIER H. Séjour de 6 nuits en avril 2018 ### 8/10 – Bien #### William P. 22 mars 2018 #### Beautiful location and view on Akumal Bay The location and views really are spectacular. We watched the red ball of sun rise over the eastern sea horizon from the master BR in the morning. Our younger grandchildren pretty much lived in the infinity pool whenever at the house and the older ones snorkeled from the shore, although it was rocky, and saw manta and sting rays, sea turtles and many schools of fish. The house is large with large bedrooms, baths and closets, but is showing bit of wear - the large glass back door leaks in rain as does the skylight above it and some of the furnishings are showing wear. The very large and heavy front door could potentially be a danger to young children if the back glass door is also open as strong winds often blow from shore. The caretakers, Francisco and Gladys, are delights and very good cooks, but I was surprised at the large tip that the book of instructions said was expected. I would have felt better if this had been explained as part of the property description and fees on the website. Written instructions are needed for the TV and other electronics and it would be nice if the AC fans could be controlled so as not to blow on you while sleeping, although I was very impressed at how quiet they were. Overall, all 12 of us had a very enjoyable, 9 day vacation at Villa Gauguin. ##### William P. Séjour de 9 nuits en mars 2018 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Emily M. 7 janv. 2018 #### Beautiful home, amazing hospitality and great location Our extended family of nine (ranging from ages 6 to 76) spent a week at Villa Gauguin over the holidays. It honestly felt like a two week vacation! I have never felt so relaxed and comfortable on a family trip. Dominique was very helpful and communicative as we prepared for the trip and planned out meals and activities. Upon arrival Francisco and Gladys were so welcoming and helpful for my sister and her family who arrived a day before myself, my husband, my kids and grandpa. Villa Gauguin was a perfect home base for our week. My husband got his morning run in early each day while the rest of us took our time enjoying coffee and the sunrise from the pool area or balconies. Francisco had stocked the kitchen for us so we could make easy breakfasts together when we wanted to head out early to the beach or visit a ruin. He and Gladys also prepared dinner for us on four nights which was amazing and plentiful (loved the Mexican plate, fajitas, green Chile enchiladas and tacos! Can’t forget lime soup made by request as well as delicious and ever present margaritas, guacamole and salsa. The flan, cheese pie and chocolate cake were big winners and I think his banana pudding is the best I’ve ever had). We enjoyed simple beach day trips to Akumal and Tulum and snorkeled in the lagoon. The best part was to then come back and let kids play in the pool while parents and grandpa relaxed in the lounge chairs. A few days were spent playing in the pool all morning, then we walked down the road to get afternoon ice cream, a few groceries or beers, then walk back to the house and settle in for a lazy afternoon before dinner. I have to reiterate how warm and friendly our hosts were as well. My twin daughters are learning Spanish and my chatty one spent a whole afternoon learning how to cook soup and make guacamole with Francisco and Gladys. They made special kid friendly margaritas the next few days which the kids loved. I read two whole chapter books (my daughter wanted to stress that point) and we played card games at the dining room table each night which was the best. This was one of the best family vacations ever and we look forward to coming back in the future!!! ##### Emily M. Séjour de 7 nuits en décembre 2017 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### Lesley V. 18 déc. 2017 #### Beautiful home, peaceful location! We had an amazing stay for 5 days with 10 adults. Akumal is one of our favorite places to visit, and it was such a treat for us to stay at the Villa. Fransisco and Gladys who are the caretakers also cooked many of our meals for us. They were accommodating to vegetarians, and we LOVED the food they made! In dealing with Dominique in setting up the reservation and making changes...it couldn't have been easier! We will definitely return to Villa Gaugin!!!! ##### Lesley V. Séjour de 5 nuits en décembre 2017 ### 10/10 – Excellent #### brian o. 14 déc. 2017 #### great stay We had a great stay at villa guaguin!!! The place was amazing and for 10 people there was plenty of space. We enjoyed snorkeling right outside the house. Francisco and Gladys do a great job taking care of the house and made some great food for us. We had about 5 meals at the house including grilled fresh amberjack that I caught. We would love to come back. ##### brian o. Séjour de 5 nuits en novembre 2017
