Villa Tankah Dreams
Sandy beachfront villa with 3 bedrooms for rent on Tankah Bay,
 Riviera Maya, Mexico
maximum occupancy 7 people

If your idea of paradise is a comfortable vacation home set upon a tropical white sand beach ringed by blue Caribbean waters.  A laid back place where there are more palm trees then tourists.  Somewhere that the term 'nightlife' means laying in a hammock star gazing or if your lucky, watching the sea turtles clamber through the sand to nest on the beach or for the young to scramble back to the ocean upon hatching.  Then Tankah Dreams may just be the paradise you are looking for.

With 3 ocean view bedrooms, a full kitchen opening up into an open concept dining and living room area, Tankah Dreams has all of the basic creature comforts covered.  Add to this a gorgeous oceanfront pool, hammocks to hang out in, chaise lounge chairs to relax in while you soak up the sun, kayaks to explore the beautiful bay and that gorgeous white sand beach.  What more could you possibly need.

Once you pull off of the Cancun to Tulum highway onto the dirt track leading into the little beach community of Tankah Tres, your pace will slow and your stress will begin to drift off.

Pull into the sandy driveway, park the rental car, kick off the socks and shoes, open the door, take in the fresh ocean air, then step out of the car and into paradise.

Amidst the tropical splendour of the entry you will find a little home in the garden.  This 'casita' is where the property caretakers, Isidro & Rocia live.  During your stay they will maintain the property, keep the villa clean and charm you with their gentle nature.  Much more than that, Isidro with the assistance of his wife will spoil you with his delicious meals.  

Stepping into Villa Tankah Dreams you are immediately taken by a breathtaking view of that beautiful blue ocean right there in front of you.   Upon catching your breath and taking a quick look around, you notice how bright, airy and spotlessly clean the villa is.

The living room and dinning room are an open concept that stretches across the ocean front of the villa to take full advantage of the view.   A stunning dome brick 'bodeda' sits over the dining table.  A sliding glass door provides ease of movement between the indoor and outdoor spaces. 

 From the dining area, a lovely arched pass through counter opens up into the kitchen.  Bar stools provide a place to sit and chat or enjoy a quick snack.

The large kitchen is bright, well equipped and has views of the ocean, pool and tropical gardens.

On the ground floor are the 2 guest bedrooms.   A full bathroom with shower separates and is shared by the two bedrooms.  The first guest bedroom is oceanfront with a large sliding glass door out to the covered terrace, beach and pool.  This room has a King bed.

The spacious second guest bedroom has a Queen bed plus Single bed.  A sliding glass door provides a walk out and partial view of the ocean.  The full bathroom is conveniently placed just outside the door between the 2 bedrooms.

The Master bedroom is located on the second level.  It has a King bed, en-suite bathroom with shower, great views of the ocean and beach, plus a walk out to a private oceanfront terrace.

What more could you be looking for....  A bright, airy and clean villa with all of your basic creature comforts.  Ideally situated on a stretch of white sand beach with turquoise blue water lapping at the shore line.  A humble, friendly and courteous couple to clean and cook for you.  Warm tropical breezes and fresh salt tinged air.  Kayaks to paddle and explore the bay.  A beautiful reef teaming with aquatic life and proximity to many of the areas attractions and activities......  This is where your Tankah Dreams are made.

GUEST COMMENTS:

Hi Doug & Desiree,  We had a wonderful stay at Tankah Dreams! Isidro prepared 4 delicious meals for us. We truly loved every second of our visit and can't wait to return.  We will be sure to contact you first for villa rentals when we again have travel plans in the area. Carson & Colette L.

We stayed with friends in January 2015. This house was our 2nd choice, first choice was already booked. We are so glad we ended up here!!! The pool was used more than we thought it would. The weather was gorgeous! Esidro was the best chef! The food he cooked was amazing! Don't miss the lobster!   Rocio does an excellent job cleaning every day. The house was cleaned top to bottom every day! The beach in front of the villa was the best in the neighborhood and Esidro cleans it daily. Good snorkeling right out the front door.

We awoke to the most amazing sunrises over the Caribbean, and enjoyed our days on the beautiful beach. It was such a treat to walk right into the water in front of the house for snorkeling. Although there were lots of people on the beach in Akumal and Tulum, Tankah Bay was always quiet. It is a short drive to visit the other beaches, but we found ourselves drawn back to the peaceful house and pool. Loved the kitchen, and we cooked in most evenings. We just didn't want to be anywhere else! Isidro and Rocio took marvelous care of us and the property. One evening, Isidro made us fresh fish ceviche to have with our margaritas, then prepared a delicious fish dinner. We couldn't have found better anywhere! The security for the area was very friendly, and kept a good eye on things, without being intrusive. (We still kept the house locked up at night and when we were snorkeling or away.) This vacation will be special in our memories. We hope to visit there again!

Third time at the villa and can't wait to go back again. As I have mentioned in previous reviews we love this house because of where it is and the staff. Tankah Bay is quiet and serene. Although the reopening of the old resort on the south end of the bay (now known as Pavo Real) has impacted the number of people on that part of the beach, its still not a huge crowd. Its necessary to have a car unless you want to walk the distance out to the main road for a collectivo.  This is a nice house for folks who want good accommodations and are not in need of the resort style fluff and bustle. The beach is good sand, but as noted by all before, the bay is rocky and grassy. Not ideal for swimming. That's why its great to have the pool! If some one needs sand to swim on go to Tulum Beach. As always Rocia and Isidro are so nice. There when you need them, not in your way when you want peace and quiet. On our first day Isidro brought us some freshly opened coconuts from the yard to sip the water from and put in our cocktails. A special touch.
