This beautifully appointed home is perfect for families or groups of friends who want to get away from it all! Enjoy drinks on the large terrace and pool deck, sip coffee in the morning at the granite breakfast bar and set up your own cocktail hour with appetizers at your outdoor kitchen adjacent to the pool. This is a gourmet's delight with plenty of space for entertaining, parties and sun.
Speaking of food, the chef designed outdoor kitchen is a centerpiece and is designed for all your cooking whims. Foodies love the large commercial grill, 2 burner commercial gas cooktop, large sink, purified water dispenser and fridge.

If you prefer to have someone else do the cooking for you, Prudi, you housekeeper, is a great cook. She can prepare breakfasts, lunches or dinners as well as light snacks. Just let us know if you want to add this service, or you can even decide once you arrive. (surcharge)

The Villa and staff were wonderful. Clean, big living areas, nice pool with perfect temperature water, great AC in every room.
Only wish we would have known more about access to Half Moon Bay and Akumal Bay, as we love to snorkel, and had no idea how controlled the beaches are there.
Within walking distance to Yal Ku Lagoon, Half Moon Bay, and several restaurants, convenience stores, and shops.
To get on Half Moon Bay, pay to park, pay an entrance fee, and then pay a guide. Same with Akumal Bay, but Lol Ha Restaurant has a decent deal to buy food there, and get free beach access. Akumal Pueblo is a nice little town, with delicious tamales for sale in the center around 6:30pm every night, for about $1 USD each.
Daily housekeeping was a nice treat.
Prudy and Alberto (the Villa staff) were extremely helpful and responsive to any issues.
Very quiet and safe location.
Comfortable and clean villa with plenty of space for families.
Owner was responsive and helpful to our pre-trip inquiries.
A/C worked great.
Room for improvement:
Some info provided by the owner was out of date (cost of Yal Ku tickets, and names of property staff).
Information on how to access Half Moon Bay and Akumal Bay for swimming/snorkeling would be very helpful, and tips on scams to watch out for.
Shampoo and soap were provided (good!), but no conditioner. Outdoor showers were very nice!
Access to washer/dryer would be great but did fine without it.

We had a lovely stay at Villa Josefina in December of 2023. The property was a perfect size for our family of 6. Everything well appointed, clean and as advertised. Prudi is a huge help and takes care of everything that you need. Cherri provided excellent communication beforehand and was easily reachable. We loved the relaxed feel of Akumal - it fit us perfectly. We all had a wonderful stay and would certainly consider returing again.

This was the perfect place to get away from it all!! While I prefer more active areas it is after all a pandemic and we couldn't have picked a better place!! The home is very well taken care of by Purdi (who will cook you just about anything you want). We felt at home for the entire stay. Location is away from the center but nothing you couldn't walk to if you wanted or rent a golf cart, they are so cheap here, like $200 for a week! There are also bicycles at the house as well. It is located next to a cenote so on those days you don't want to do too much its a great place to hang out. Communication from the owner was so amazing and she made sure everything was taken care of on her end even after we had to delay our trip a bit she was very accommodating. I would highly recommend this home for almost any occassion!!
