    Dan and Dave were lovely hosts, the location was just what we were after and it was a great place. Lovely base to explore a beautiful part of the world and some great food and restaurants nearby.

    This is our second time at Casa Gatos. We love it all and wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else in Akumal.

We do serve breakfast to our guests on their first morning. The house is surrounded by gardens and is one block from Yalku Lagoon and two blocks from Half Moon Bay reef fabulous for snorkeling.
I'm a retired Chef and love to cook. My partner and I are cave divers and that is what brought to Akumal. We really love visiting all of the ancient Maya city sites. While cave diving we visited a underwater cave where man lived 10,000 years ago.
Within walking distance are cafes, bakery and shopping. Casa Gatos is on a quiet street great to come home to after a day of diving, exploring Maya sites or just shopping in Tulum or Playa Del Carmen.
