Neighborhood highlights

Often referred to by locals as “the old Coconut Road”, the community of Tankah is now a single street populated by private residences and small businesses protected by the Meso-American reef and bordered by the jungle and sea. At one end lies a tranquil turquoise bay. At the other end, is a rockier beachfront, home to endangered sea turtles and several luxury villas.

A growing community, Tankah has several restaurants within a short distance of Villa Coccoloba. Options range from beach bar casual, to finer dining. There is also an interesting cenote called “Cenote Manati”. For a fee, visitors can snorkel the crystal clear turquoise waters of an open cenote……and might encounter the local crocodile! Joining the cenote to the sea is an underground cavern which runs underneath the street. For divers, this cavern provides a unique opportunity to experience a halocline – where freshwater meets the sea. Fishing and dive excursions can be arranged through local dive shops.

A short walk around the point from Villa Coccoloba, visitors can snorkel the shallow waters of Tankah bay and experience an underground world of coral formations, manta rays, and vibrant sea life. Between May and October each year, visitors to Villa Coccoloba can observe the nesting and hatching of endangered sea turtles out front of the villa. Special flashlights and instructions are provided to safely and respectfully observe this amazing process.

Approximately 8 km from Tankah is the growing community of Tulum. Once a hippie enclave, Tulum is now famous for it’s beautiful beaches, vibrant music scene and world class restaurants. Tulum has two areas – the beach (the “Playa”) and the town (the “Pueblo). Lining each side of the single beach road are chic boutique hotels, high-end shops, and restaurants. Visitors can access the sea via the public beach, several beach clubs (for a fee) and restaurants. An ancient Mayan trading port, the Tulum ruins sit atop a high cliff and offer amazing vistas of intriguing ancient architecture against the backdrop of the turquoise sea and white sand beach. The town of Tulum has modern grocery stores, produce stands, reasonably priced restaurants, shops, and is the local hub for modern convenience. Travelling up the Coba road, visitors can experience inland cenotes, local artisans, and the Coba Ruins.

Only 40 minutes North of Tankah is the city of Playa del Carmen. Playa del Carmen offers shopping, nightlife and is one of the the largest cities in Quintana Roo. En route to Playa del Carmen are numerous theme park attractions such as Xel Ha, Xcaret, Explor. Along the way, visitors can explore the deserted beaches of Paamul and Xpu-ha, snorkel with turtles in Akumal, and enjoy the mystical waters of many cenotes. For the golf lover, the world class golf course at Bahia Principe is a 15 minute drive from Villa Coccoloba.

A beautiful and sophisticated home, Villa Coccoloba is the ideal location for your next holiday in the Mayan Riviera. From Mayan ruins, cenotes, warm sea breezes and sunshine, to tranquil waters and sea turtles in the summer, we are confident your stay at Villa Coccoloba will be immersed in luxurious comfort and enjoyment.

I met my British husband in 1992 backpacking on a beach in Fiji. 28 years later, we found our own beachfront near Tulum, Mexico.......and the accommodation is a bit better than a leaky tent!
