Anniversary Celebration
Reviewed on 2023-07-20 by Glenn B. , Danville, IN United StatesVery pleased with the house and the location. The gardener and the housekeeper were great; did a excellent job of keeping the grounds and house clean without causing any disruption. Can not comment on the management company as we had no interaction with them. Be aware that coming down the stairs from the bedrooms located on the second floor can be tricky for older people as handrail does not extend all the way to the top of the stairs. The house was in a great location for restaurants and other sights including seeing loggerhead turtles that come upon the beach at night to lay eggs, which was amazing. Highly recommend the house, we had a fantastic time.

Family Vacation
Reviewed on 2023-07-09 by , Statesville, NC USPerfect vacation for our family of 15 (ages 11-75). Everything was wonderful. Great location, house, and staff. We asked so many questions before and after arrival and they always got back to us right away! We felt safe and spoiled by the staff. We were there during the “seaweed” season but it wasn’t a problem at all! The gardener raked the beach daily and we enjoyed the ocean! Many pool and sand toys to use. We hired Chef Daveed and the food was spectacular. We would definitely visit again!
Manager's Response
We are so thrilled to hear that you and your family had a wonderful stay at Casa Salvaje! It brings us great joy to know that you felt safe and well taken care of by our staff, and that you enjoyed Chef Daveed's food. We are especially glad that the seaweed season didn't stop you from enjoying the ocean and that our beach and pool toys provided you with plenty of fun. We look forward to welcoming you back to Casa Salvaje in the future!
Our FAV Annual Family Trip
Reviewed on 2023-04-05 by Courtney B. , South Hamilton, MA United StatesAlso, Jorge, the house manager is quick to respond and fix any issues. This year we had a little problem with water pressure and they fixed it asap.
We can't wait to return!
This was our third time at Casa Salvaje, and we're definitely booking again for next year. We love this house, the beach and Akumal. It's perfect for several families with kids when you add on the garden suites. Betty, the housekeeper, and Aurelio, the gardner, are the kindest people and we look forward to see them annually. It truly is a hidden gem!<br/><br/>Also, Jorge, the house manager is quick to respond and fix any issues.

A great and safe vacation for our children and grandchildren.
Reviewed on 2023-03-20 by , Mapleton, UT United StatesThere were many nearby cenotes but I could recommend the Rio Secreto as it was a well preserved cenote and had great, safe and attentive guides.
I was pleasantly surprised with the security and upkeep of the property. It was centrally located to many attractions and was on a quiet section of a great beach. With on onsite nighttime security guard, we always felt secure and the property was regularly maintained by the housekeeper and maintenance person. <br/><br/>There were many nearby cenotes but I could recommend the Rio Secreto as it was a well preserved cenote and had great, safe and attentive guides.

Beautiful
Reviewed on 2023-01-18 by Aneesah W. , Piscataway, NJ United StatesOur party of 11 (9 adults 2 children) had a wonderful time on the property. David held our hand throughout the booking process. The chef was amazing. Betty made sure the inside was thoroughly cleaned daily. The groundsman (sorry I forgot his name) made sure the pool and outside of the property was cleaned. Then our “security” guy always met us at the entrance. There was enough space for everyone to gather and also have privacy. We were literally right on the beach. Everyone loved it. The road leading to the property is super dark bumpy so be careful coming in. They property provides bottled water in all the bathrooms since we cannot drink the water. Betty offered to wash clothes. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. You definitely need a rental car to get around. There is a cute beach bar about 2-3 doors down. Everything was perfect for our week long stay. Thank you.

It was a pleasure having you stay with us at Casa Salvaje.
We appreciate your honest review and look forward to helping you plan another great vacation.
Paradise!
Reviewed on 2022-10-19 by Lindsey S. , Truckee, CA USWe loved our stay at this beautiful house right on the beach! What a great place to be with family. The house was perfect for our large group, and we spent many hours swimming, sitting by the pool and on the beach. Having the Beached Bikini Bar just down the beach was perfect for easy meals. The property managers were incredible in helping us plan excursions, transportation, and catered meals. Betty and Aurelio kept the place in tip-top shape and super clean every day. The location is pretty isolated, so you’ll be needing taxis. My recommendation is to agree on a price with the taxi driver prior to the ride, and pay separately for each leg. They’ll charge you for waiting in between rides if you aren’t careful! Otherwise everything was fantastic! I would definitely recommend this house!

Great Family Vacation
Reviewed on 2022-02-09 by Courtney B. , South Hamilton, MA United StatesThis was our second year at Casa Salvaje and it's our favorite! The pool and beach are so perfect for our kids. We absolutely love Akumal and even had a couple fun trips to Tulum. I couldn't recommend the accommodations, location or experience more!

Reviewed on 2021-11-29 by , MexicoWe enjoyed our stay at Casa Salvaje. The home worked well for us and was very clean. Betty and Aurelio were terrific.
Paradise
Reviewed on 2021-11-09 by Todd T. , Tooele, UT United StatesWe stayed at Casa Salvaje for the first week of November and it was fantastic! There were 5 couples and plenty of room. It was so clean and was cleaned every week day from top to bottom. The beach is beautiful, and you can swim right out to the reef for some of the best snorkeling ever. We actually saw baby turtles that hatched on the beach one night. The gardener cut down coconuts for us to drink one morning. We hired the chef to do dinner for us 2 of the nights and wish we would have done more. We really enjoyed our day at Xplor and our trip to the ruins in Coba. Everyone agreed that having a pool and beach with snorkeling right there to use anytime was the highlight.
Excellent beach access!
Reviewed on 2021-05-04 by Kevin L. , MexicoWe had a great time staying at Casa Salvaje. The caretakers did a very good job keeping everything neat and clean and making quick repairs when needed. Keeping up with the sargassum was a monumental task, but handled with a smile. Access to the pool is limited to going around the side of the house, or passing through one or another of two bedrooms. This isn't always the most convenient thing. Everything we needed was in the house, making it very comfortable for everyone. Plenty of room for our group of 12. Snorkeling was terrific, but the beach bar down the way was frequently overwhelmed so eating there was difficult. Altogether, we would rent again if the price was right.
Absolutely great place!
Reviewed on 2021-01-11 by Astrid J. , San Francisco, CA United StatesWe stayed at Casa Salvaje for one week. The house exceeded our expectations! It is absolutely beautiful! The house is large and spacious, no stone was unturned in term of attention to detail. We were a group of 9, including 7 kids ages 15 - 24, everyone loved the place! The pool is great, and there is no beating the close beach access. Bring your snorkel gear and dive right in, steps from the house. Betty and Aurelio were lovely and helpful. There is a cute little bar/restaurant a short 5 minute walk on the beach that we enjoyed a few times for happy hour. One thing to know is that you do need a car to drive into town but it's a quick trip. Recommend renting a car if you stay here. We would definitely stay there again! Love, love the house and it's location!
A Slice of Paradise for all
Reviewed on 2020-11-12 by Sean L. , Jersey City, NJ United StatesTo start, we actually had another property booked and when due to COVID-19 that owner took the property off the market, Akumal Direct, the management company offered us Casa Salvaje at the same price, which was superb customer service and candidly a great deal. During all the rebooking and communications Katie and the team @ Akumal Direct went above and beyond. They were timely, courteous and clear in all their communication.
As for the house itself, it is in amazing shape, the location is superb, and if I might say Aurelio the groundskeeper and Betty the housekeeper were kind, very hardworking and also unobtrusive. Betty was actually a saint if we are being honest, if you stay please DO NOT FORGET TO TIP THEM GENEROUSLY. We actually did not need or desire Betty to clean everyday so we asked for an every other day situation which worked well. The rooms, the bathrooms, the kitchen and living room are all amazingly well stocked, with the casita perfect. The private beach is unreal and we had some excellent recommendations for local food and services like a fishing trip with Sweet Willy which was 1/4 the cost of other outfits. We were a group of singles so we each had a room which was amazing, but this house is equally as good a fit for an extended family with kids, or couples. Plenty of bathrooms and amenities. They had bath towels to spare, pool toys, beach chairs, a fully stocked kitchen, refilled water cooler every day. Aurelio even cut us coconuts. The snorkeling in the reefs right off the beach is majestic.
TL:DR the property is even better than described, extremely clean and well maintained and the service from management was impeccable. The recommendations and location of local activities like Coba, Tulum, Valladolid, Cenotes, grocery stores and more is ha
