Casa Chukum

A Caribbean Seafront Villa Perfect for Gathering

Accommodating 11 guests in its four varied bedroom suites across its two stories and pool house, this striking seafront villa gives guests a delicious taste of the tropics. Swap your everyday routine for a sandy beach garden under swaying palms. Grab a beach bed or a plump seat on the rooftop deck, or plunge into the pool. Leisurely dinners and sun-soaked afternoons are guaranteed as is falling asleep to the sound of the surf.

Layout

The primary bedroom is located on the upper level, a king-sized room with a private bathroom with a bathtub. Two additional bedrooms are also situated upstairs, one a queen-sized room with a full bathroom, the other a queen room with an overflow single bed and private bathroom as well.

The pool house area on the ground level features a pair of queen-sized beds, a shared bathroom and living room with direct access to the villa’s pool and outdoor covered patio.

Head to the top of the house for the rooftop deck, a fully furnished space with jungle and sea views, and great sunrises. The kitchen was made for cooking for a crowd, and there’s a grill near the large outdoor dining table.

Experiences

These are available at an additional charge, including a butler, chef, waitstaff, bartender, babysitter and personal shopper, plus trip/tourism planning, yacht experiences, and wellness and beauty services.

Around

The property is located on a white sand beach with crystal clear waters in Tulum’s Hotel Zone, an area of the Riviera Maya famed for its manicured bohemian vibe. It's walking distance from all the top attractions, including dozens of boutique resorts, upscale restaurants and beachfront bars.

Once a sleepy village sought after for its remarkable Mayan archeological ruins and the UNESCO-protected Sian Ka’an and Parque Nacional Tulum, Tulum has recently expanded, making the laid-back town a diner’s delight and favorite destination for beachgoers who like their sand and surf with a side of massage, yoga, and wellness. Dense jungle vegetation extends inland from the sea, offering a classic tropical vacation destination with dining under swaying palms and an active outdoor nightlife in beachfront clubs and palapa cocktail bars.

In addition to dining, boutique shopping and clubbing, there are dozens of wellness and self-care spas and yoga studios and massage therapists. Nestled into the jungle, the area is also known for its underground cenotes, some underwater caves, others deep blue green holes, all inland waters revered by the ancient Mayans and their ancestors as links to the underworld. The Mesoamerican Reef, the northern hemisphere’s largest, runs along the coast, making for great scuba diving and snorkeling. The Reserva de la Biosfera Sian Ka’an is full of cenotes, as well as diverse flora and fauna unique to the area.
