Villa Yardena

If you are looking to truly escape from it all in a comfortably elegant style, then Villa Yardena could well be the right choice for you. This stupendous Mexican beachfront vacation rental villa is located along the Mayan Riviera in a small gated community, on a quiet, aquamarine bay, with 80 feet of white sand beach, private oceanfront pool and a full staff including a personal chef to spoil you with his culinary delights. Just a short 15 minute drive north of Tulum, this luscious hide-a-way location is a world away from all of life’s day to day stress, but close enough to amenities that you will not feel isolated should you find the energy to drag yourself away from your personal paradise.

Villa Yardena is a breathtaking 6000 sq. ft. main villa with 5 bedrooms plus another 4 spacious bedroom suites in a garden guest house. Overall, Villa Yardena offers luxurious privacy in a wonderfully capacious and tranquil environment. Colourful Mexican tile, generous use of marble, floor to ceiling windows, numerous works by local artisans, hand crafted furnishings, quality wood work, and unique design features, all contribute to the specialness of this elegantly casual villa. Add to this a long list of amenities and you have everything a large group could need to pamper themselves while they go about the business of relaxing and creating a lifetime worth of memories with family or friends.

In the main house there are 3 large ocean front bedrooms and 2 garden view bedrooms to choose from. All bedrooms have a gorgeous terrace or balcony with covered sitting area, and the en-suite bathroom are done in Mexican tile and/or marble. All beds have pillow top mattresses and quality linens. The main villa will sleep up to 14.

There are four cute and equally comfortable bedroom suites located in the guest house, which is nestled within the street side tropical garden. Here an additional 12 people can join the group bringing the maximum occupancy up to 26. These bedroom hide-a-ways offer great privacy only steps away from the main villa. Two of the suites have King beds and two have 2 Queen size beds each. All have private en-suite bathrooms.

The attention to detail of this villa is found in all areas including the park like grounds found at both the front and rear of the property, as well as the very inviting rooftop lounge. These common areas offer tranquility, privacy, and special places to gather as a group, spend some intimate time with someone special, or to escape for a little private time alone.

As you enter the large wrought iron gate of Villa Yardena you will be swallowed up by a lush tropical garden with a path that wanders up to the entrance foyer. Within the garden near the gate is a casita, or little house, where the staff live. A little further into the garden is the guest house with 4 luxury bedroom suites to accommodate larger groups.

Upon entering the villa you will be taken by the open, airy, feel, and the abundance of space that Villa Yardena affords.  From the 30 foot ceilings in the living room, through the open flow between the oversized kitchen, dining room, & large yet cozy living area, to the 12 foot ceilings in the rest of the home, you cannot help but be impressed with how well this villa works for a large group.

Villa Yardena has been thoughtfully designed to ensure the flow of indoor and outdoor living is effortless so that you can enjoy the local lifestyle of living outdoors. Large sliding glass doors open the home up so you can appreciate the views and savor the fresh tropical ocean breeze. Plenty of lounge areas both in the sun and shade, plus a convenient dining area between the villa and pool complete with outdoor kitchen, all contribute to your appreciation of this more relaxed way of life.

The outdoor areas of Villa Yardena are spread about the property providing a number of options for the group to gather or for you to slip away and spend a little private time. The pool and area surrounding has a shaded dining table plus a scattering of lounging areas with comfy couches, inviting day beds and chaise lounge chairs. The beach is only steps away with hammocks in the shade and chaise lounges in the sun providing the perfect place to relax while you watch the kids frolic in the water. Equally inviting is the rooftop lounge complete with shaded sitting area and day beds for sunning. This is a fantastic place for that evening sun downer or star gazing.

REVIEWS

What a wonderful trip! The house was gorgeous, clean and perfect! The staff were delightful, kind and very helpful. The chefs were ON POINT! Would come back in a heart beat. Jay N. July 2022

The staff was fantastic! From the minute we arrived, which was late, they were supremely helpful.  My friends were surprised to have Amalio and Anastasio in the kitchen helping with the groceries we brought with us. We tried to stay out of their way as much as possible and they tried to accommodate us when we had strange American requests. My wife did ask that they prepare salsa and Guacamole more often and we think there may have been a language barrier as it didn’t seem to happen. The house itself is obviously beautiful! All the extra items for beach use were utilized heavily by our crew. I can say that one kayak paddle was a bit messed up on arrival. The blade spun on the handle so I removed the blade to prevent it’s loss. I think Freddy found it as we were leaving. As far a suggestions for improvement go I can only think of simple things.  Perhaps a bluetooth adapter for the stereo and more or separate speakers. We noticed that when we turned up the music for the pool/beach it was a bit loud inside. We mused at the idea of running more wire in a foundation like that though. Andres, our security dog handler, and his master Teeny were great!  Some of the girls stayed out late and had good conversations with both of them. We utilized The Bob quite a bit and suggest they invest in an ice maker. We changed the name of the store to “no hielo” within a few days. Overall, it was a fantastic trip and the house was beautiful! When we book these trips you never know how representative the pictures and description will be but yours were spot on.  If you could just move it closer to the airport for transfer times that would be great. Sincerely, Andy

Hi Desiree, Best vacation ever! The house was wonderful! It was very well appointed, and everyone had their own space. The staff kept it amazingly clean. Irene, the chef, was excellent. She cooked 3 creative and delicious meals every day. Benito was the best chef helper and designed beautiful table displays. We love Mexican food, and they treated us to something from scratch everyday – chilaquiles, empanadas, mole, chile rellenos, soups and the lobster and shrimp grill with the lime garlic chile oil were unbelievable. And always a beautiful presentation. Having a large pot of coffee, sliced fruit and breads waiting for us every morning while they made the rest of the meal was wonderful. Gustavo was extremely helpful, and even got a pediatrician to come to the house on Sunday night as the 5 year old evidently had strep. The airport transfers went pretty well. Two of the airport pickups had some definite difficulty finding the van – about an hour. Both ended up calling and still having problems. However, the pick-ups at the villa were always timely and people really appreciated the service to get to the airport and our day seeing Tulum. The driver took us to a wonderful restaurant on the beach.  Just a few thoughts – laundry service was explained as only limited items not as a small load as in the pre-arrival instructions, so we ended up rinsing things by hand ourselves. We would have appreciated more ability to wash clothes. We used the life jackets, scuba gear and all the kayaks a lot. A paddleboard would be a welcome edition. I will highly recommend you and Vida Caribe. I have many photos on Facebook and have been showing them to all my friends and family.  They are all very jealous…. 😉 Thank you again for everything.  It was an amazing time! Sandy A.

Wow, I can’t describe what a wonderful time we had at Casa Yardena. The house is amazing, the staff was incredible, and the food was delicious. We had the best time and can’t wait to go back one day!  We haven’t been able to stop talking about it. I also can’t say enough about the staff.  They really took care of us. From the excellent food, to Richardo placing our chairs on the beach every morning. I think they got a kick out of us too, at least I hope so. I think we provided some good entertainment. I will definitely be recommending Casa Yardena to everyone I know!  K. Hammon

My many thanks for a great vacation. I wanted to let the rest of the world know just how spectacular your Villa Yardena is. I was amazed at the home. Your pictures on the internet do not do it the real justice it deserves. The home should be described as nothing short of a castle. It was late July and warm. Finding the place was not difficult thanks to your directions and we were greeted by Victor and Gabey and our newest friend Manuel who all helped carry luggage and 75 bags of groceries to the kitchen. The home is amazing and was immaculately clean and ready as promised.  Stepping out the back door for the first time with a drink allowed me to soak in the beautiful pool, palm tree’s just 20′ away and the hammocks on the groomed beach. Our chef was Antonio and he was spectacular. He can really put together some great meals all with a Mexican flare but also considerate of what our family liked. He was always there in the morning with a warm smile and hard at work putting together breakfasts the kids liked as well as one for the adults. If your clients can get him some fish either by fishing or Pat @ Pat store in Tulum he can do wonders. We appreciated the transportation you arranged for the big group from the airport and the driver was waiting for them on arrival and on the day we left. Locally we saw the Tulum ruins and Xel-Ha which the kids loved. Our parents in their 70’s enjoyed watching all the grand kids play and relax and they commented that it was the most relaxing vacation they have ever had thanks to Antonio and Alfredo who did all the cooking and clean up of dishes. Security in the area was excelent and Carmen was always present. We thank you and the staff and will carry these memories with us forever. Villa Yardena is one magical place. Brian V.

We would like to thank you for an amazing trip to Villa Yardena. It was a pleasure working with you and we can’t say enough about the hospitality we received from the staff. They were all truly exceptional. Everything about the experience exceeded our expectations. We look forward to working with you again soon as we organize more retreats. Best wishes to you! Scarlet G.
