Company trip
We brought a group from our company. The house was comfortable and clean. The couple that came everyday to clean. Did an amazing job. Everyday the house was cleaned immaculately, the exterior was cleaned and organized. Even the sand was groomed everyday. The house manager was a huge help on things to do and places to go. The view from the house was breathtaking. Coffee on the balconies in the morning was perfect. I would stay here a thousand times and it would never get old. Akumal bay is beautiful. Snokeling right outside the house off the beach was the best. Lots of reef life, beatiful fish, and clear water. I cannot say enough about this place. The town of Akumal was cute. Go early in the morning ready for breakfast.

Wonderful quiet vacation house!
We had a wonderful stay. The property is great! Everything you need is there, and if not, the staff will help you get whatever you need or desire. Management, maintenance and housekeeping staff are wonderful! Had the maintenance man (Jaime) and his wife cook for us two evenings. The food was wonderful! Had a company come in and do massages that were fantastic! Great vacation place!

Unbelievable
Our stay at Casa Chaca was unbelievable. It was a family vacation (six people) and there was plenty of space. We never felt crowded. As mentioned by other posters, you will need a swim shoe, as this is not a "sandy beach". But because it's full of rocks and coral, the water is crystal clear. We spent the days lounging by the water, swimming and kayaking. On our last evening, we had dinner prepared for us and our only regret is that we didn't do it earlier in the vacation. Well worth the money! The staff is so warm and kind. I really cannot say enough about this place. This vacation was one we'll remember for the rest of our lives.

Amazing home in Akumal
Casa Chaca is a spectacular home on a quiet strip of of the Akumal Sur bay. The house is clean and welcoming with great big ocean views. The ambient temperature was perfect for us, but if it gets hot the air conditioning works quickly. The kitchen has all the tools you need to cook for yourself. You can pay Jamie to cook a dinner or three for you and you won't be disappointed. We rented a car for our entire stay and it was worth it. We drove almost everyday to go sightseeing or into to town for dinner. You can walk to Akumal bay, but it is a LONG rocky/watery journey. The water outside your door is filled with fish and the coral farther out is still lively and beautiful. We brought our own snorkels and it was great to explore everything. Bring water shoes as the first several feet or so is rocky but too shallow to swim over. If you go prepared to cook a little and drive sometimes, this quiet, palm tree shaded house at the end of the road is a magical place to escape the world.

Wonderful location :)
Casa Chaca was incredible. It was in a gated neighborhood and there was beach security right next to the property. We would 100% stay here again. A few things to note for other travelers: 1. We were hesitant about needing daily cleaning. We originally told them not to come every day but changed our mind. Being on the beach, sand gets dragged in and dirties the house really fast. The staff is super friendly and does an amazing job. Keep the cleaning schedule :) 2. Akumal is a small, quiet town. If you plan on doing cooking, stop at a larger grocery store before you get to Akumal. There are a few mini supers, but the selections are small. The house is well stocked with cookware, but not oil/spices/etc. You'll want to get those at the market as well. ** There is an outdoor market in town almost daily. They have a large selection of produce at good prices. 3. Beach - bring water shoes. After you get past the initial rocks it is sandy, clear and gorgeous. But you will need the shoes to get past the breakers. Bring snorkel gear to check out the fish too! We were planning on walking into town a bit from the beach. However, there really isn't public beach access. The only way we found into town from the beach (and back to the beach from town) was past some old abandoned condos. Round trip was around 4 miles. There is a beach bar about half-way to town that you can walk to that has delicious drinks and food. Overall, we loved the small town vibe Akumal had to offer. We felt very safe and being right on the beach was an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend!

A WEEK IN PARADISE
This was an absolutely AMAZING trip. We loved the property, the cleanliness, the staff, the isolation, the private beach and kayaks in the back. It made us forget about reality and completely stay in the moment. There was enough space for us to be together yet apart when we wanted.

as good as advertised
I highly recommend this property for a relaxing stay. It is as lovely as the photos (if not more). Clean, quiet and safe (guard stand just outside the walls). The cleaning staff were so nice, and accommodating. They cooked for us a couple of times as well which was tasty, inexpensive and much appreciated after a day of travel (arrival day). The property is close to Tulum, the cenotes, the ruins, etc. Just can't say enough nice things about this place. *note- one reviewer prior to our stay suggested water shoes as the water off the beach is rocky. Great suggestion- we followed that and were glad we did.

Beautiful beach, top notch attentive staff and fun times for all!
Casa Chaca was the perfect setting for our sibling vacation. Each couple had their own spacious room, patio and bathroom. Elena and Jamie were great. Jamie and his wife cooked us dinner at the house one night as well. Will definitely recommend to friends and family. Thank you Marsha for everything!
