Priceless Family Vacay!
Casa Tortuga exceeded our expectations in every way! We spent a week in this fabulous location and none of us were ready to leave. The breeze from the ocean made the temperature a non-factor in the pleasantness of everyday. The pool was a welcome retreat from the heat on the few days we did venture out to explore. Samuel and Marisela met all of our needs on the property from local info to delicious meals and margaritas! With 6 adults, the king beds were essential and the layout of the house gave everyone enough space to relax. The porches and outdoor dining area were perfect for games and conversation. The kayaks and paddle boards were an added bonus that we enjoyed throughout the week. We highly recommend Casa Tortuga for your next gathering.

Relaxing in Paradise
We had a great stay. Cheryl was very communicative and very easy to deal with. This house sits right on the bay and is just stunning to wake up to the sunrise every day. The rooms all have cold AC and the showers were always hot. It is truly amazing when you first roll into the private gates and just take the view in. Samuel takes care of the property and any requests or needs you may have. He speaks good English too and is great to work with. Maricela kept our place tidies up every single day. It was nice to come home to a clean home after being out adventuring around. We had Samuel and Maricela prepare multiple breakfast and dinner meals for us as it just made life easier. There are a few good restaurants nearby, but having an infant child who already had a long day --- it was nice to just sit back and have dinner already made for us. GREAT HOSTS - GREAT LOCATION -- HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS EXPERIENCE!!

Second visit to Soliman Bay
Casa Tortuga is a gem in Soliman Bay, my family and I loved the location and property. Samuel and Maricela were not only meticulous in the keeping of the property but also in the preparation of meals, they were wonderful to us, accommodating to every member of the party and truly made us feel as if we were home. After a rocky arrival to Cancun the respite that Casa Tortuga and more over Samuel and Maricela provided was above and beyond, and already has us discussing our next trip back.

A perfect week !
From booking to leaving everything went super smooth. Cheryl was super responsive and helpful in helping getting there and making sure everything was ready for the whole group. Samuel and marisela made everyone feel like they were living a dream taking care of everything on site from cleaning the house every morning to doing laundry and preparing dinner and drinks for the evenings. The location is amazing being so close to tulum for evening adventures to everything else around making great day excursions and even right at home the beach offers adventures with the kayaks and snorkel opportunities around the bay. Overall a perfect week for everyone. Easy to balance relaxing with adventures and excitment. Thank you Cheryl, Samuel and Marisela !

Fantastic House!
We absolutely loved Casa Tortuga! The house was large and easily fit 10 of us with more than enough space. Samuel is a fantastic cook and was extremely helpful with setting up shuttles for us to take to different areas of Tulum. Right on the water and can't beat the turquoise water views! Plenty of outdoor seating and lounge areas for everyone to enjoy their time.

Lovely getaway in paradise
Our stay at Casa Tortuga was fantastic. We were 6 adults ranging from early 30s to mid 70s and 3 children ages 3, 3, and 6. We rented a car for some of our group, and I do recommend that if you'd like to explore some of the nearby area (we did the Casa Tortuga cenotes). The place is within a protected beach-front community on Soliman Bay, and a guard is in place to open the gate for you as you arrive and when you need to leave. We all felt very safe there. The Bay is beautiful, we kayaked out into the Bay each day and spent time snorkeling in some of the deeper water. We spent most of our time on the hammocks on the beach or relaxing by the pool or in the outdoor furniture on the deck. Each bedroom has it's own A/C which worked perfectly for our entire stay. I'm not sure what to say about Samuel and Marisela, they were the difference makers. Samuel was available to help if anything went wrong and his food and drinks are amazing. We did about 2 meals per day on average and a few margaritas. Marisela cleaned, did laundry for us, and served as sous chef. We all wanted to take them home with us.Only minor cons-beach is a bit rocky, sand on the property wasn't as good for play by the kids as I had hoped from the pics (it's just a thin layer on solid ground), they could provide some additional child safety to the stair railing-our daughter fell a few feet through the opening and had a couple scrapes. All said, it was amazing and we want to come back, or buy the place and stay!

Everything was perfect!
We spent 6 wonderful days at Casa Tortuga with extended family as we were there for my daughter's wedding. The accommodations were perfect for our large group giving everyone space to relax and come together for the fantastic meals prepared by Samuel and Marisela in the outdoor kitchen area, which was a definite highlight. We had Samuel stock the kitchen for us before we arrived and most of our dinners there which was so convenient for our large group and they are 5 star restaurant quality. Loved his happy hour margaritas too! The place is clean, well stocked with what you need and if you can't find it or don't have something Samuel is a great resource. The beach was in front was clean and we even had some green turtles hatch from a nest right in front of villa while we were there. Marisela keeps the place spotless. We felt safe always and appreciate the extra security on this Bay. Everyone in our group raved about the place! I highly recommend Casa Tortuga for a large group, it is perfect!

Beautiful and well kept.
Our stay was great. We hired the chef for most of our meals and he did a great job. We had 2 with severe allergies and 5 with celiac and needed a gluten free diet. He accommodates incredibly well for all our needs. The only negative thing was the seaweed and the horrible smell that accompanied it. We were told about it, but didn’t realize how extensive it would be. Even with people clearing the beach daily it was still too much to clean up. And the stench of it was sickening at times. But none of this was the owner or managers problem, it was just Cancun in August. It is something to think about before going.

Vacation of our dreams
Look no further than Casa Tortuga for your next vacation! This amazing house HAD IT ALL!!! Amazing beachfront views, pool, shaded sandy yard, kayaks, paddle boards, sand toys, lots of space, and cool A/C rooms! Our group of 9 Adults and 3 kids had the most amazing time! The house and amenities were exactly as expected but what took our vacation to the next level was Samuel And Marisela!! These two went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time! Samuel was so kind and helpful. He helped set up taxi service to the ruins and cenotes as well as a quick trip to downtown Tulum and also set us up with massages on the property! But if that wasn't enough he is also the most amazing CHEF!! The food was one of the highlights for everyone! Before our trip we talked about going out to eat and we planned for cooking some meals on our own but after our first dinner we realized we only wanted our meals made by Samuel! Everything he made us was exceptional! I could on and on about how amazing our stay was and how much we did not want to come home! We felt safe the entire time and Cheryl was very responsive as well! The only "downside" was the sargasso(which we were expecting prior to our trip). It was pretty heavy while we were there so we were unable to access the water from the beach right outside the house but just a short walk down the beach we could find access. The guys worked hard daily to clean the sargasso and we never had an issue with it smelling or causing any problems.

Wonderful Spot
We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Tortuga. Samuel and Marisela are wonderful hosts, and kept the house very clean and made wonderful meals. Our group included adults and young children, and everyone had fun with kayaks to get onto the water for swimming and snorkeling, toys to play in the sand, and pool floats and toys for enjoying the pool. Beds/bedrooms were comfortable for sleeping and the air conditioning worked well during the nights. We made use of the upstairs kitchen a handful of times, and found it well stocked with what we needed for cooking. Overall, a wonderful experience and we would absolutely stay again if returning to the area in the future!

Fantastic Vacation Home!
The house is everything described and more! Looks great in person and certainly well kept. We appreciated that there was ample drinking water and AC for each room, comfy beds, and reliable wifi. We found that the kitchen had everything we needed to make full meals and loved that there were several places to eat/drink both indoor and outdoor. We also had Samuel stock the fridge which was very helpful and save a trip to the grocery store although there is also a grocery delivery service in the area. Samuel and Marisela made a wonderful meal one night, kept the property looking great, and were always helpful when needed. It's a quick walk to nearby Pandano restaurant and bar and a 10-15 minute taxi ride to town. You essentially have your own private beach to enjoy as well as the pool and all the lounge chairs on the property. We loved taking the kayaks and paddleboards out one day and there seemed to be plenty of beach items and sand toys for families considering the property. Even as a small group of young women we felt safe the entire time because there is always security at the gate at the entrance to the street where the home is located. Cheryl was quick to respond to any communication and made the whole process simple and enjoyable. Already dreaming about our next trip and would definitely stay at Casa Tortuga again.

Great week with friends
We had a wonderful time at Casa Tortuga with 5 adults and 6 kids. The beds are very comfortable and A/C was so nice. Samuel is the best and made our stay so memorable and comfortable. Marisela made sure the rooms and common areas were very clean and did our laundry twice. The food and drinks were amazing and we had lots of fresh seafood. The sea grass was a bit of a bummer because it was hard to get to a good swimming area and quite a walk or paddle to the blue water. The smell was only bad a few times. The pool is perfect for playing or lounging and everyone spent lots of time in that area. The restaurant down the beach m, Pandano, is really good and they offer a day beach pass, but we had too many kids with us so they did not want to accommodate us on a Saturday which was understandable. Samuel arranged a driver for us to explore Akumal Beach and Cenotes. Those were both great excursions. We would definitely stay again!

Excellent place for a couples retreat
We went as a group of 10 and had a fantastic time! Samuel and Marisela were always around when we needed them and did a great job keeping up after our messy crew. Their food was excellent! I do not recommend trying to cook while you are there as the kitchen supplies are limited. Samuels food is absolutely delicious and the service was wonderful. I especially suggest the grouper. The view from the house and the pool was so gorgeous, especially sunrise and sunset and there was plenty to see while snorkeling. We also saw a sea turtle and lots of nests! Caution to those who have a heightened sense of smell, the sargasso seaweed can smell pretty dank but you definitely get nose blind to it quickly. Some folks in our group didn’t even mind the smell. Cheryl was very easy to work with and has a great information packet that answered all of my questions. If you are sensitive to the heat, beware that each room has its own ac unit but sometimes they can’t quite keep up and it still gets a little stuffy. The main room/kitchen upstairs has no ac so we didn’t use it much. But we didn’t have much need for it either because the pool and downstairs area were so great, we spent all of our time there. The short road you turn onto when you are just about there in is pretty bad shape, so if you get a rental car make sure it can handle some big potholes!! Definitely recommend this place, we really had a great time and enjoyed our stay very much. Wish we would have stayed longer!

When life gives you sargassum / sea grass
We had a WONDERFUL time at Casa Tortuga despite the sea grass! We so appreciated that you tried hard to be proactive with it’s clean up. Thus being said it gave us more time to explore all Tulum and area has to offer. Samuel and Marsila are amazing! We were sad we didn’t have them prepare every dinner for us. And Samuel is a wonderful bartender! We highly recommend Cheryl and Dean’s place for a nice quite and relaxing vacation.

Paradise. This is our second stay at Casa Tortuga- It was so relaxing and gorgeous the first time we had to come back with our kids and family friends! The bay is perfect for older children/teens to kayak and snorkel, they're always in view, and security helped us to feel safe. It's a very protected bay. Samuel and his sister are amazing chefs, our rooms were sparkling clean every day, and the pair made both of our stays even better than would be expected. The house is comfortable with gorgeous views everywhere. The staff is working tirelessly to remove the sargassum seaweed. Unfortunately, it really does give a terrible odor once it starts drying on the beach, but it's not their fault, and they really are working long hours to remove what washes ashore. Overall this was paradise and a lifetime favorite. Heavenly.
