Villa Luminosa, invites you to enjoy sunrises and sunsets on the rooftop.
There are no words in any language to express the experience. A truly amazing setting, Villa Luminosa faces south overlooking Tankah Bay and the reef – with views on a clear day of the Tulum ruins and beyond. You can enjoy breathtaking sunrises and sunsets and experience the serenity that comes from privacy, the lush gardens, the music of birds in the palm trees.
Villa Luminosa’s unique location on Tankah Bay provides for an always gentle breeze with no strong west winds. Because Tankah Bay has its own reef that acts as a breaker, the bay is tranquil with only lap waves at shore making snorkeling unbelievable in the calm clear waters. Tropical fish, rays, and sea turtles are seen in the bay and coral heads. This is some of the safest, easiest, and best snorkeling on the bay. A walk along the coral and sand beach is perfect for exploring the tide pools and for shelling.
There are three restaurants on the bay—all within walking distance. Villa Luminosa is an expansive tropical paradise where inside and outside become one—a beautifully designed and decorated beachfront home with all the amenities you need for a perfect vacation. The rooms are spacious and decorated in a modern Mexican motif. A wide palapa roof porch with jungle tree supports (each its own piece of mother natures wondrous art) traverses the entire front of the main floor overlooking the beautiful vegetation of the grounds, palm tree tops, pool, beach and bay beyond. Reforested Tzalam wood Adirondeck lounges and a long dining table with chairs (made by local craftsmen in Bacalar) allow maximum enjoyment of this wonderful shaded outdoor space.- Behind are two generous bedrooms and baths on each side of a central great room furnished Mexican The dining area of the great room is furnished with a handmade dining room table designed by a local Mexican Architect, The focal point of the great room and the fully equipped kitchen is a naturally sculptured jungle tree that extends from the floor to the ceiling. There is also an office area with WiFi available throughout the house. -One of the highest rooftops on the bay allows for viewing the most spectacular sunrises and sunsets over water, stargazing, sunbathing, or dining.

The pool level features an open courtyard with a large gathering table, outdoor kitchen with refrigerator, gas grill, and two more expansive bedrooms and baths that open to the pool deck.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is beautiful with beautiful views. The road to the house is a bit primitive and needs work. Would definitely recommend though.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ahead of time our communication about the property and how to rent a car and drive there was so helpful. Upon arrival Roberto and Lucia welcomed us like we were family. Everything was super clean, convenient, appointed, and unbelievably beautiful. The view is spectacular from all four bedrooms, the AC worked great, Alberto and Lucia’s cooking was fantastic (I recommend their ceviche), and the pool and ocean were super pristine and beautiful. We used a recommended excursion and did the half day to visit the ruins in Tulúm and the cenote. Our tour guide was fantastic. I can recommend this place enough. Felt like home but even better.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was fantastic but the staff was even better. We were somewhat unsure how having live-in caretakers would affect our stay but they were the stars. Alberto and Lucy were superb. They're there when we need them and the rest of the time it's like they're not even around. The house is in great condition and very clean. We enjoyed every aspect of it and would definitely return, especially for Alberto and Lucy's homemade pico de gallo.

The photos and discription were not as totally appeared on the website. The beach was nothing as described ..(no beach) without rocks and a slant where you could not sit or lay flat. No shade / palapas, etc on the beach area. The road driving to and from the house was total hell. Potholes and over run with construction. Thank God we did not have a new rental van.
