villa Alma Rosa
Riviera Maya - Mayan Riviera
4 bedroom beachfront vacation rental villa on Jade Bay Mexico
maximum occupancy of 12 people (no more than 8 adults)

Villa Alma Rosa, which is located on Jade Bay just a couple of miles south of Akumal, boasts 4000 sq. ft. of luxuriously casual beachfront living space indoors and so much more outside. 

Villa Alma Rosa was designed and custom built for a French artist and her family. Vibrant colors, fabrics, original artwork, and an abundance of natural stones and wood complement and contrast with the contemporary zen like style of the villa.

Arriving at villa Alma Rosa you can pull into the off street parking.  Step through the entry gate into a tranquil garden that is walled to the street providing additional privacy.

Stepping inside of the villa you enter a large foyer with vaulted ceiling.  Directly in front of you framed by a Mayan stone arched opening, is your first view of the pool and ocean just beyond.  You know that you have arrived.

This entry foyer has a large guest bedroom off to the left, and half bathroom and a stairway with water feature leading up to the second level.

Pass through the stone arch and you enter a very large open space that encompasses the living room, dining room and kitchen.  High ceilings and large sliding glass doors add to the sense of expanse and airiness.

Caribbean life is all about the ease of movement between indoor and outdoor living spaces.  At villa Alma Rosa this transition is seamless and enriching.  With a large covered terrace offering both lounge and dining groupings, plus numerous other options pool and beachside, you will have little reason to go indoors.

As comfortable as the chaise lounges and poolside hammocks are AND delicious fresh grilled seafood and that Mexican staple of arrachera steaks made on an open flame is, at some point you will need to go back inside.

A large dining room table with pool and ocean view is situated next to the kitchen.  a breakfast bar with stools is conveniently located to create the perfect place to quickly feed hungry kids.

The kitchen at villa Alma Rosa is well equipped to prepare anything from a simple snack to gourmet meals.  But why even enter the kitchen when you can have your meals prepared and served to you.

Also on the ground floor is a large Guest Bedroom.  It is fitted with a King bed and Single day bed.  A sliding glass door provides access to a patio with sitting area and partial ocean view.  This is set back from the main pool/beachfront terrace thereby creating a lot of privacy.

This bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with shower and double sinks.

Heading up to the second level you will find a lounge area with couch and a TV at the top of the stairs and entrance to the 3 other bedrooms. 

The first bedroom is directly above the ground floor bedroom and similar in size and layout with a King bed, Single day bed, large en-suite bathroom with shower and sliding glass door to a set back private terrace with partial ocean view.

The 1st Master Bedroom has a 4 poster King bed and Double day bed.  It has a full ocean and pool view.  A sliding glass door opens to a covered terrace with loungers, tables and chairs.  The terrace stretches across to the Master bedroom.  

The stunning en-suite bathroom has a shower with slider opening to the terrace where you will find another shower.   What a view..

The 2nd Master Bedroom also has a King bed plus Single day bed.  The covered terrace is an inviting place to relax and welcome the day. 

The en-suite bathroom has both a tub and walk in shower.

Casa Alma Rosa is located on serene Jade Bay just a short stroll down the beach from the enchanting village of Akumal Mexico.  This very tasteful Riviera Maya vacation villa offers space, privacy and modern comforts on a relaxing, translucent blue Caribbean bay, ringed by a white sand beach.  The beach can be rocky in places but water shoes should provide easy access.  This bay is ideal for kayaking and snorkelling.

We are happy to share a few GUESTS COMMENTS from past guests of this villa:

No words can describe this property, you need to experience the bliss.  The concierge Mimi is super sweet and helpful.  She was available on call/whatsapp 24/7 for anything and everything we needed to be comfortable.  The house help and staff were very sweet and kept the villa in immaculate condition. The rooms, kitchen, balcony, bathroom, toilet, linen, sofa, amenities etc everything was spot on and high quality.  The swimming pool is a delight with the hammock !!!  The food cooked by our chef was the best Mexican food we've had.  They were cooperative and helpful in making great food to suit all our taste buds.  Highly recommend the property, but ensure that you have a car to move around as there are no cabs or transport available around the villa.  Must visit Tulum Ruins and the beach.  Would like to add again,  Mimi was a Great Help !!

We have travelled a lot over the years with our family to different countries and stayed in everything from villas to B&B's and lodges but nothing as magical and relaxing as the Villa Alma Rosa.   It was both very spacious and beautiful but also comfortable and it included an incredibly hospitable staff.   Our family of six spent a week there vacationing together and celebrating our youngest daughter's wedding.   The villa had enough space for our grown up family (ages 29-61) to once again travel together like we used to fifteen to twenty years ago.   It is designed in a way so that you felt you had space and privacy both inside and outside.   However, there were also comfortable areas to hang out together.   We spent most of of our time outside and because of the breeze we didn't need to put on the air conditioners to sleep at night.   Viewing the sunrise and sunsets were marvelous on the rooftop deck every day!   It was great waking for sunrise with some coffee and then recreating for 2-3 hours either walking on the beach, running, kayaking and/or snorkeling.   Our family enjoyed gathering after at the outside table to an amazing breakfast prepared and served by Gabbi and Abel.   The food and physical space was definitely a highlight of the vacation but the staff at the villa was even more so.   Between the concierge Lara, who greeted us upon our arrival and managed our every need, Carlos taking care of the house and grounds, Gabbi and Abel's countless hours on food preparation and thoughtful personal touches, and the gals that kept the house tidy for us, the staff and their sincere kindness, smiles and warmth is what made this stay the best we have ever experienced!     I hope to return to the Villa Alma Rosa within the next couple of years for another relaxing vacation.   It was definitely more magical than I had imagined and the photos can't even begin to portray the feeling you get when you are staying there.

Villa Alma Rosa was everything we expected & MUCH MORE!!   We had 4 couples, so everyone had their own suite.   Most rentals have one or two nice rooms, where you have to draw straws to figure out which couple gets the Master Suite.   Every bedroom had their own bathroom & private balcony.   The pool & grounds were beautiful and private.   The staff were exceptional.   Please don't waste your time cooking any meals-have Gabi (the chef) do everything for you.   We never had to go to the grocery store, everything was provided for us.   This was a true vacation!!   We will be planning our next visit to Alma Rosa soon!!

Our family spent the last week of July 2015 at Villa Alma Rosa, and had a vacation of a lifetime there with a family of 8, from 4 to 68 years old.   We hope to be back!   The villa, staff and location were unbeatable, and together made our vacation relaxing like no other -- with a focus on family time.   The villa is beautiful, and feels like a real home, with a lot of thought and love going into design and details of both the outdoor and indoor areas.   We loved the colorful indoor décor.   The four bedrooms are all huge, beautiful and unique, with wonderful ocean views and balconies.   Wifi was reliable.   The pool is lovely, with large areas at different depths, good for all.   The outdoor area is full of trees and greenery, giving a relaxing atmosphere and privacy.   There is a ton of outdoor seating, where we ate all our meals, including two charming swings under a tree.   Key to us, there are beautiful ocean views from the outdoor yard area (and villa!), and the (very few) passers-by cannot see inside the yard -- great privacy.   The house and outdoor area were even better in real life than on the photos.   Magical!   We've rented other villas and traveled widely and never experienced such kindness, warmth and competence from staff.   Chef Gaby and assistant Abel cooked three delicious meals a day, at any time we wanted (even odd hours), doing all the groceries, cooking and cleaning.   We never lifted a finger!   We initially wanted to try different restaurants but after tasting Gaby's food and experiencing the villa we cancelled all our bookings.   Gaby was a charm to work with, happy to accommodate any requests, make a special dish for a kid, pick up anything we wanted at the store, etc.   Fresh-pressed fruit juices at every meal, soups, mains, desserts -- they all tasted so good, authentic and fresh.   For birthdays, Gaby and Abel put up balloons, banners, pinatas, and made personalized cakes.   They thought of everything.   Concierge Laura was very responsive, answering any phone/email/text messages within 15 minutes at any time of day/night, having the answer to everything.   Jaffet and Pilar kept the house spotless every day, and Carlos cared for the yard and pool.   The staff was always right there when needed, but never in our way -- which was perfect.   Last but not least the villa's location was ideal for us.   It’s on a beautiful and uncrowded section of the beach, with sunrises and sunsets to match.   Most exciting to us, we saw a few turtles walk up to the beach to nest just after 9PM ... once directly in front of the house!   We went on two evening walks and saw turtles both evenings.   The beach is rocky in front of the house and not ideal for swimming, but we knew that ahead and had plenty of fun in the shallow waters (with water shoes), on kayaks, with kites, in the pool, and exploring the area.   The villa is 50min from Sian Ka'an National Reserve, whose snorkeling, winding lagoon, and wilderness we loved; an hour from the lovely Coba ruins in the middle of the jungle; 20min from Tulum and its ruins; 25min from Playa Del Carmen; and 5min from Yal Ku lagoon.   We visited all of them.   We rented two cars, and saw a lot without having to go far, feeling away from crowds.   All in all, we spent most of our time at the villa – our home and oasis.   Thank you to the whole team for the trip of a lifetime!
