Sweet and quiet casita
Right on the bay with everything you need. We enjoyed snorkeling (kayaks and equipment provided) and swimming right off the shore. Luis was very helpful and easy to reach. For a small fee he even got groceries for us. The room itself was clean and had everything you could need with the minor exception that only soap was provided in the bathroom so bring shampoo, lotions, etc. Great stay!

Wonderful property steps from the beach
The villa was truly a lovely find and the grounds were well maintained throughout. Luis, the property manager, was extremely helpful -- even waiting up for us when we arrived at 1:00 am after an air travel delay. We stayed in a second floor studio with a kitchen and lovely little balcony. Great breezes through the many windows enveloping the space. Lounge chairs, hammocks, kayaks, and snorkeling gear are available for free for guests at the beach and the small pool provides a nice opportunity to cool off. Would highly recommend renting a car to see the cenotes and ruins, and because there are limited dining options nearby. Suggest stocking up on groceries at the Selecto Chedraui in Tulum (about 15 minutes by car) at the start of your stay. The only downside was the excessive seaweed that is a pervasive issue for many beaches in the area and out of the control of the villa owners.

Casa playa maya unit 2
Lovely tiny casita near the beach, on the 2nd floor, just behind a larger house that is right on the beach. This little unit has screened windows on all 4 sides and feels like a jungle treehouse. Great ventilation and no need for A/C. Louis could not have been a more accommodating caretaker, and really added to our enjoyment of the property. He stocked our casita with food and drink before we arrived, and supplied us with snorkel equipment, and even a hat since my husband forgot his! The casita, beachfront, walkways, are all impeccably clean. If you do not have a car, there are two accessible restaurants, and Louis can help with arranging a taxi for further outings. We did a bird tour with Mexico Kan Tours. Miguel with Amor Aves was a phenomenal guide. Our short stay at Casa Playa Maya was perfect.

Romantic and Tranquil
We had a wonderful visit to Casa Playa Maya! The Casita was perfect for us and we loved having the windows open while the sea breeze flowed through! Luis and family were very kind. The kitchen had everything we needed, we just wish the refrigerator was quieter... Soliman Bay is lovely, we will visit again when there is hopefully no seaweed! The location is close to so many cool Cenotes. The nearby restaurant Oscar & Lalo is delicious! We hope to come back with our whole family next time.

Restful and idyllic
Really enjoyed this chill and idyllic stay in a well-appointed comfy studio steps from beautiful Soliman Bay. One eating place within an easy stroll is a fine hotel with an elegant but affordable dining room

Most amazing host and private beach!
The best experience with a host family we have ever experienced. Luiz and his family helped us for every single one of our needs. The casitas are perfect and clean, and the private beach is in a calm cove with small waves. Just overall 10/10 experience. Highly recommend! If you want a private get away this is your place.
