4 Bedroom oceanfront home centrally located in Akumal. Pool, AC, Wifi, Cook

Everything was amazing! Deysi and Freddy were so sweet and helpful. The property was stunningly beautiful. So many lovely areas to chill in. Watching the storms on the sea from the hammocks at night was magical. Walking south along the shore from the house you can come to the beach from the side and avoid much of the tourist hassle. A decent amount of tasty restaurants and good activities within walking distance, although that was a sweaty endeavor in late August. The stinky mounds of seaweed were unpleasant, but my group still had no problem finding ways to make hanging out in and by the water enjoyable. I would definitely recommend Casa Iguana!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Akumal Direct did an excellent job accommodating our group of 9. When we found out that the original place we booked was overrun with sargassum, they were quick to find us other options. We ended up at Casa Iguana and it was perfect. The grounds look just like they are pictured. Our group loved the pool, the volleyball area, the palapa and the outdoor table to eat at. Daniel made us several meals and helped us tremendously with a few things we needed help with. The couch and chair in the casitas really does need to be replaced since they kept a beach towel over the back of the couch to cover up the wear and tear. It's pretty faded, torn and very uncomfortable to sit on. Other than that, everything else was very nice. The location was perfect and so close to restaurants and the Akumal Dive Shop. We rented golf carts so it was very easy to get around the town. The house does not have beach access but we were able to get to the beach at the Akumal Dive Shop very easily. The pool was beautiful and always clean. The furniture around the pool was in excellent condition. We especially loved the palapa and the hammocks in the evening. Honestly, what made this rental so wonderful was Daniel. Upon our arrival (We got in around 10:30pm) Daniel had ingredients to make us guacamole and it was amazing! He and Patricia (house keeper) made us an amazing breakfast one morning and then we had Daniel make us dinner one night. His wife made us homemade corn tortillas. It was enough food for us to eat another night. Daniel set up a fishing trip for our guys and helped get us transportation to Xelha when our other fell through. All in all, we had a fabulous time in Akumal and at Casa Iguana.

Amazing stay! Felt like family welcoming us to create a perfect vacation. Daniel and his family were sweet as could be and worked hard to make our stay perfect. Finding us transportation, activities, great food, even making a homemade flan to celebrate our daughter’s birthday. Just above and beyond on every everything!

We gathered here with family and it was perfect. Daniel was so helpful and a delicious cook. Highly recommend!

Beautiful inside and out! Had a great time and Roger and Danny were super helpful and communicative. Do yourself a favor and have Danny cook for you each meal was authentic and delicious. Will book again for the future.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had reservations at Casa Iguana the week after hurricane Beryl came through. We were assured the house was not damaged. After our flight landed in Cancun, I was informed by Scott from Akumal Direct Reservations that Casa Iguana lost power and they were moving us to Azul Riviera. They updated our transportation and we had a seamless arrival after a grocery store stop (highly recommended going to the big grocery store on the way to Akumal as the grocery stores in Akumal are small). Azul Riviera was wonderful - private pool and backyard had a private entrance to the Ya-Zul Lagoon (no need to pay entrance fee). We snorkeled there daily. Miguel was so kind! My boys LOVED the loft beds. The bedrooms are air-conditioned. Highly recommend asking Akumal Direct Reservations for a golf cart rental so you can get into town. Unfortunately, we lost power on the afternoon of our last day. I informed Scott and he was great in giving us updates. After a few hours and no sign of power coming back on, he offered us the original house as it had power now (Casa Iguana). We put our luggage on the golf cart and made it to Casa Iguana at dusk. Daniel welcomed us and gave us a tour. We only were there for the night, but it was stunning. The private driveway/courtyard area is peaceful and the pool was a hit with the kids. The view of the ocean was amazing. There are 2 casitas that are both fully air conditioned. Wifi only works in one though. I wish we had more time to enjoy Casa Iguana!!! If we only had stayed here, I would have still rented a golf cart as my kids might not have enjoyed the hot walk back from town in July (hot!!). Our transportation through Akumal Direct Reservations was on time. So overall the company was great adjusting our stay - thank you Scott! Both locations were fantastic and truly memorable. Both Miguel and Daniel (and their wives) are fantastic and take amazing care of the properties. Thank you for taking such great care of us!

Two seperate buildings, two seperate kitchensThe guest house is more updated than the main houseDanny and Patricia the housekeeper and house manager are amazing!!!

The house was warm and inviting but very private. Danny did a great job taking care of it and my family. Highly recommend booking this property.

The property includes 2 separate little houses (casitas) with two bedrooms and two bathrooms and a kitchen in each one. This worked well for us because we had two families with children and bedtimes were different. There was plenty of space and no difficulty with sleep patterns. The kitchen in the principal house could use a new stove and the sofa in the casita should be recovered in a fabric that does not absorb humidity. I would also recommend more towel racks for hanging wet towels inside. These were very minor issues. The grounds were stunning and that is most important because in a place like Akumal you want to be outside as much as possible. There were two outdoor eating spaces where all ten of us ate most of our meals. The grill didn't work, but we didn't feel like going to all that effort anyway. The pool was about 6 steps up, so the little ones were slowed down a little and we felt that was safer. The palapa overlooking the ocean and the starry nights was a wonderful place to meditate, have a happy hour, or watch the sunrise. In between the pool and the palapa was a volleyball space which the kids loved for playing with their toys and running around. The property was enclosed by a nice wall and gate which we were also thankful for because the children couldn't run into the road and it cut down on road noise immensely. We felt quite contained and secure. Dani and Patti were available anytime and were great cooks and problem solvers.

Our family of 9 had the best time at Casa Iguana. Communication ahead of time and while we were there was fantastic. The house and the casita were the perfect fit for my family. Two primary bedrooms in the main house and two rooms in the casita so we could split the boys and girls up. Daniel (the caretaker/cook) and Patty (the house cleaner/cook) were incredible. They really added so much to our trip. The breakfast they made every morning was so good. And Daniel cooked us dinner one night (highly recommend!). They became a part of our family and even came out to eat with us one night. The house is in such a great spot in Akumal. You can walk to La Buena vida, Jungla, La Lunita, the Beach, the shops, Taverna, and everything else you need in Akumal Beach. Thank you for everything!
