Architect-Designed Villa Near Yalku Lagoon in Akumal

Offered turnkey at $1,695,000 USD
Approximately $29,700,000 MXN, exchange-rate based

Casa Loro is not the typical Riviera Maya villa.

Originally designed and built by a Mexican architect as his own private residence, this one-of-a-kind home combines circular palapa-style architecture, custom curved glass, tropical privacy, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living in one of Akumal’s most distinctive residential settings.

From the house, it is approximately a 3 to 4-minute walk through Yalku Residencial’s private pedestrian access to Yalku Lagoon. Yet once inside the property, the outside world almost disappears. Mature landscaping surrounds the home, neighboring houses are not visible from the main living areas, pool, or gardens, and the atmosphere is wonderfully quiet and peaceful.

Set on approximately 1,209.58 m², or 13,020 sq ft, Casa Loro offers approximately 674.61 m², or 7,261 sq ft, of authorized built and ancillary areas.

Designed for Living and Entertaining

The main living area sits beneath a dramatic palapa roof with a central skylight. Curved walls and largely frameless windows draw the gardens into the home, while custom furniture was designed specifically to complement the architecture.

The custom Italian kitchen and bar were made for entertaining. High-end appliances, black marble countertops, a central gas cooktop, backlit onyx, custom cabinetry, and bar seating keep the person preparing food or drinks connected with everyone else.

The open living and dining spaces flow naturally toward the pool and covered terrace, and the integrated Sonos system carries the atmosphere indoors and outside.

Casa Loro offers 3 dedicated bedrooms plus an ensuite media room that can comfortably function as a 4th bedroom. One full bedroom is on the ground floor, making it practical for guests or anyone who prefers to avoid stairs.

The poolside wellness building includes a full bathroom and dedicated steam-room space. The steam equipment currently requires replacement.

Practical Ownership with Local Support

Casa Loro currently operates as a vacation rental, with experienced local property management and housekeeping already established.

The current manager has expressed interest in continuing after a sale, giving the next owner the option of stepping into an existing support structure.

A private housekeeping apartment is positioned beneath the illuminated stone water wall near the entrance, with its own separate access. The practical service areas remain discreetly separated from the main guest and entertaining spaces.

Yalku Residencial

Yalku Residencial is an intimate gated community of only 24 lots with 24/7 security, maintained common areas, a residents-only tennis court, and private pedestrian access toward Yalku Lagoon.

The location feels like a hidden tropical retreat while remaining close to Akumal, Puerto Aventuras, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum.

For a buyer looking for distinctive architecture, tropical privacy, flexible living space, established local support, and the ability to walk to one of Akumal’s most special natural settings, Casa Loro would be very difficult to reproduce.
