Casa Ganesh

Wake up to the sound of the waves and fall asleep to the whisper of the ocean breeze at The Villa at Casa Ganesh. This private Tulum retreat is a welcoming beachfront haven with tropical gardens outside and plenty of natural textures inside. Even better, it’s a great base for exploring the Riviera Maya, whether you want to marvel over the ancient ruins or scope out the most photogenic cenotes. Revel in the Mexico sunshine from the villa’s oceanfront outdoor living areas, which feature a plunge pool and sunbeds. If you want to share photos of your holiday—or have to check emails—there’s Wi-Fi to keep you connected. Daily housekeeping is also included in your stay at the villa.

Textures of wood and stone bring the lush surroundings into this luxury vacation rental. It’s laid out around an open-concept great room, where you can stretch out on oversized pillows in a sitting area, whip up dinner in the galley-style fully equipped kitchen, or plan the next day’s adventures with friends and family around the 8-person dining table. The Villa at Casa Ganesh has one bedroom on the ground floor with a king bed, and 2 bedrooms on the top floor: one with 2 full beds and garden views, and one honeymoon-worthy master suite with a king bed and ocean views. All 3 bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms.

With gorgeous beaches, a host of activities and sights, and plenty of great restaurants, Tulum caters to both travelers who want to relax and those who can’t wait to get going. It’s easy to spend days basking on the beach right in front of the villa, but it’s also a short drive to the Mayan ruins and your choice of eateries and bars. Rent a bike to see the town, or book a tour to visit some of the area’s coolest cenotes.
