getting a real break

Review Submitted: January 2, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2007
Isla Escape honours it's name. Here nothing is missing to realize your wish to escape hectic life and completely rewind. We have enjoyed our 10 day stay in December under a stark blue sky and with the sound of the nearby ocean very much. The Cottage is realy complete, clean, very well maintained and located in beautiful nature a few steps away from a clean beach that appeared to be a very popular jogging area. Diving opportunities and a popular snorkeling site, a variety of restaurants and shopping, all at beach-walking distance. We enjoyed the privacy of the garden and the beachfront so much that we hesitated to go out. Tulum and Playa del Carmen nearby, two places with a total different character and worthwile to hang around. We have found Isla Escape totally in accordance with what is advertised on Homeaway and the IslaEscape website. The owners, who live next door, were a real asset, kind and caring. We loved Isla Escape and would recommend everybody to consider the beauty of this place. The cottage is small and is in our opinion comfortable for maximum four persons and OK for kids as well.

Amazing cottage!

Review Submitted: November 22, 2010 Date of Stay: November 2010
Our week at this cottage was nothing short of perfection. We thought long and hard about renting a house (versus staying at a hotel) and could not have been happier with our choice. Small touches - a bottle of wine and a few food items in the fridge upon arrival, the friendliness of the owners, the wonderful service of the housekeeper and gardener, and the lovely charm of the cottage, and an ideal setting on a quiet part of the beach - all made this a vacation to remember. The location is also ideal - close enough to walk to the lovely village of Akumal or a short drive for dinner to Tulum. Lots of great cenotes in the area, and YalKu lagoon for snorkeling. A perfect cottage for a small family or couple. We were so sad to leave and can't wait to come back!

Perfect location, perfect vacation.

Review Submitted: March 21, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
This lovely casita exceeded all my expectations. The location was fantastic, with the town of akumal an easy 10 minute walk along the beach in one direction and beautiful, often deserted beach to walk along and explore in the other direction. The property was immaculate due to the very pleasant couple who maintained the house and garden. The owner was incredibly accommodating securing a masseuse and private chef for one of the days we were there. (the private chef, ricardo, cooked the most delicious 4 course meal for us which we enjoyed on the outdoor terrace while listening to the waves crashing). The terrace became a favored spot for breakfast and lunch and was a great place to escape the rain which fell two mornings we were there. It was nice to still be able to enjoy the outdoors and see the ocean.

We did not rent a car and found it very easy to walk or catch public transportation to get around. The travel agency in Akumal was a great resource for securing transportation back to the airport.

It was so hard leaving this tropical paradise. It felt very private but not at all remote. This was by far one of the best homes i have rented.

Beautiful Escape!!

Review Submitted: June 9, 2008 Date of Stay: January 2008
There are no words that do this beautiful, private space justice. We loved it--and would return in a second. Our vacation in this charming cottage was true gift to celebrate our 30th anniversary. Everything that the owners say is true and more!! It is truly beautiful and offers incredible respite and a place a-part for those who cherish quiet (as we did)--yet there are ample opportunities for those who wish to explore too.

Isle Escape Paradise

Review Submitted: February 3, 2008 Date of Stay: January 2007
This charming casita was beyond our expectations. 4 busy moms were looking for a respite and adventure. The property is more lovely than the pictures could show and is maintained beautifully. The owners next door were kind and helpful as were the maid and gardener. The hammock was seldom empty and views of the water from every corner of the property. We seldom spent time inside except to sleep as the outdoor room covered by palapa and lounges by the ocean served us well. We enjoyed grilling vegetables bought at the local market on the outdoor grill. Terrific location for a swim, snorkel and siteseeing. Would recommend this highly and hope to return!
