It was something we wanted to try different from staying at a large resort. Yes you can cook, but did we feel like it every day? No. We thought there were barbeques to use but there weren't. On my second day I was injured walking along one of their made paths of rocks and mortar. I stepped onto a ceramic... More

My daughter and I stayed three days and had we not been somewhat physically challenged, we would have enjoyed it completely. We were unable to use the pool which was a major disappointment, but it only had a ladder and we require steps to get in or out due to knee problems. The setting is lovely, the staff verry friendly... More

Super friendly owners, amazing garden, friendly dogs and cats, clean and beautiful apartments. This place is simply amazing. Every detail has been carefully taken care of. And it is really cheap for what they are offering. We never wanted to leave...felt like being in the paradise.

One stays in a casita in charmingly landscaped grounds containing a good pool. Simple but tasty Italian food is served in the evening. The beds could have been more comfortable, but were par for the course in relatively inexpensive Mexican hotels. Overall convenient location and good value.

Villa Tortugas was one of the nicest places my wife and I have ever visited. The accomodations consist of private casitas which are located on the grounds of the Villa. The place is beautifully maintained and there is a lovely pool area. You could easily spend your entire vacation sitting on the porch of your casita enjoying the breezes. We... More

It's a very good place to stay near Akumal if you've got a car. It's about 2 km away from Akumal beach where you can snorkel with sea turtles. There is a small kitchen with fridge and gas stove in the room, which I find very useful.
