Property details

Stela Luxury Villa, Akumal; 7BR / 7.5BA; Pools, Wooden Gym; Minutes from Tulum Nestled in Aventuras Akumal, a mere 20 minutes from the heart of Tulum, stands the Stela Luxury Villa - a paradigm of sophisticated coastal elegance. This deluxe haven, designed with multi-family getaways in mind, beautifully marries fine woods, natural stones, and rich textiles, all under the umbrella of clean, contemporary architecture. Inside, seven bedrooms unfurl in luxury. The main house greets with a garden-view bedroom on the ground floor, adorned with two queen beds and a private en suite. The second floor reveals three more, each telling its story of ocean or garden vistas, and en-suite bathrooms.

Exterior luxuries are manifold: a garden terrace with a heated plunge pool sits against a backdrop of lush jungle views, while an outdoor gym, styled in the unique Tulum fashion, also serves as a serene yoga spot.

My family and I had a great visit. This house was clean and the staff was very friendly and cost efficient. We had breakfast every day and it was amazing. The host was very responsive and helped us book a ton of activities.

The entire villa is absolutely beautiful and directly on the beach. 3 staff keep it clean each day, which was a nice surprise but not described in any communications (would have been good to know to plan for their tip). Some downsides: I have never seen a kitchen with such a paucity of cookware (no pots, skillets, roasting pans), which made cooking for ourselves nearly impossible. I suspect this was to encourage guests to hire the host's staff to cook, which for a family of 10 is prohibitive for every meal. When we did hire them, we were not allowed to order the 2-course lunch menu for dinner instead of the more expensive 4-course dinner menu. The dishwasher and bathtubs did not work. The biggest downside was no fault of the villa, but affected the entire eastern coast of Mexico -- unbelievably thick sargassum (seaweed). It piled up on the shore, was like quicksand, and extended into the water at least 40 yards; check web reports before booking. Host GPS coordinates are not accurate.

We had a fantastic time. The home is big with lots of room for our family to spread out. The staff was wonderful! So kind and helpful. I suggest if you would like them to cook for you, plan that with them immediately so they can arrange for the meals to happen.
