Description
Casa Playa Maya "the house that could not be built" was built in the center of an undeveloped bay between Akumal and Tulum on the Mexican Mayan Riviera Caribbean Sea by Native Mayans between 1997 and 2000. It took two years to construct as we had to cut the trees for the support posts, all the hardwood as Tulum was a dirt road town back then where you couldn't even buy a nail. CPM is NOT a boilerplate concrete Block house but a hand built unique structure. It is faced with rare Nacoss Woods varnished to a high gloss and even under the stairs and loft it is faced with this rare wood (something like a durable bamboo but dark Brown like Mahogany). There is not another like her.The Great Room in the Main House is 8 meters across and is circular, sports a new 10 meter Palapa Roof, 20 Hardwood POSTS support the roof and loft. In the Great Room is also a full kitchen with all amenities-Microwave, blender, large refrigerator, stove with 6 burners and a broiler plus the Island with bar stools for 6 and really the catch all for everything. There is also a seating area with settee, couch and easy chair and coffee table. The dining table seats 6 and is custom made hardwood as are the chairs. It can be mated with the tables in the casitas to make a table which will seat 10. We also have a great Stainless outdoor gas Bar-B-Que etc , SAT TV, DVD with Dolby 5.1 etc. Water heaters are backed up PLUS we have an 11,500 Watt Generator for use during any power outages in the Bodega by the road.
The Great room is surrounded by windows and glass doors allowing an unobstructed view of the turquoise Bay and through the rear sliding glass doors one steps onto the Private Covered Patio from where one can step down to the private powder Beach with 4 kayaks, 9 beach chairs. a shade palapa and the best snorkel Bay on the Coast. The Bay is like an aquarium.
The loft which overhangs the Kitchen area is up the circular stairs on the north side and has two twin Beds which can be married to make a King.
Off the Great Room on the NE is the Lower bedroom with 3 meter ceilings, King Bed, AC and en suite full bath and sliding glass doors to one of the patios or balconies. Upper bedroom is similar and has a private staired entrance.
Behind the Main Villa in a separate Building are two other full efficiency Casitas each with AC, Queen Beds, Kitchen and full baths. One atop the other. Each tidy and trimmed with hardwoods and each has either a balcony covered ( the Upper) with seating or a patio lower in front of the fountain.
This property appreciates about 20% a year, and easily pays for itself. Simply Hire a property manager who lives here on the Bay and you have a Caribbean 2nd home which takes care of itself and appreciates each year. Staff house with AC and old camper which I use an an office is also equipped with AC. I rent at least 44 weeks out if the year. This is actually a moneymaker. See www.akumaldirect.com (search Soliman Bay Homes for Casa Playa Maya) and www.homeaway.com property 101427 and be CERTAIN TO READ THE GUEST COMMENTS. They tell the real tale. This is the very best Private Bay on the Riviera Maya and although not the Grandest home on the Bay, it books renters consistently as it is priced well per week and can accommodate easily 10-16 guests, 10 in beds and 6 on our Swiss Army Inflatable beds which make up just as a normal bed with mattress protectors, fitted sheets and pillows. Naturally all china, glassware, appliances, kayaks, etc are included.
In the Ariel Photo you can see the location and facing of the property. The Point on the upper right of the Photos shows that we face SE and are protected from hurricanes. NEVER had to cancel because of a Hurricane while other homes on this Bay and other Bays have been destroyed. Also the CENTER of the bay is where the good fine sand is and not the rocks you find at either other end. Since I was the first to build here, I had my pick of spots. I choose the best. 700 Meters off the beach is the world's 2nd longest Barrier Reef, the Great Mayan Reef. This keeps our Bay Calm and protects us like a cocoon.
