Situated on a slender strip of sandy perfection on the eastern edge of the UNESCO World Heritage Bioreserve of Sian Ka'an, Playaakun offers total seclusion and complete comfort. A palatial five-bedroom beachside villa that can sleep up to 14 guests, it provides instant access to the Caribbean Sea on one side and the placid waters of a natural lagoon on the other. Blending contemporary architecture and traditional design features to breathtaking effect, it is the ultimate destination for large family holidays and relaxing escapes with friends.

A stay in Playaakun allows guests to explore the staggering natural beauty of the bioreserve responsibly. The eco-aware tours include reef snorkelling, land-based wildlife excursions, Mayan history tours, and boat trips. The vibrant town of Tulum is also a short distance to the north and is home to a diverse range of high-quality restaurants and lively bars.

Four of the villa’s five bedrooms feature king-size beds and uninterrupted ocean views, ensuring guests benefit from a truly spectacular vista when they wake. The fifth bedroom includes two single beds and a double bed, making it the ideal room for children or one of the groups on a multi-family holiday. Delightful ensuite bathrooms are attached to every room, all of which make excellent use of traditional local materials to ground you in your surroundings.

Guests also benefit from a fully-equipped kitchen that includes everything you need to prepare sumptuous group meals and cosy and comfortable lounge spaces for easy socialising. Relaxed morning meals can be taken at the villa's breakfast bar, while the large dining table can accommodate all guests. A dedicated media room ensures you can kick back and catch a Netflix movie whenever the mood takes you.

Outside, the expansive rooftop terrace offers wonderful views of the sea and surroundings while incorporating solar panels - just one of the many eco-friendly design features on the ecological estate. Wooden decking stretches the length of the villa, culminating in an elegant infinity pool, then quickly transitioning to white sand and crystal waters.

The many hammocks, day beds and lounge chairs are ideal for sitting back and soaking up the sun with a refreshing horchata in hand. And an al fresco dining table makes for special evening meals. Particularly when you top them off with a warming glass of local mezcal. Offering absolute privacy and immersion in one of Mexico’s most picturesque natural environments, Playaakun guarantees the holiday of your dreams.
