Detailed Reviews
I have been to Villas DeRosa many times and have kept coming back because of the family oriented, personal customer service, beautiful location on the beach, good food, well appointed rooms and support facilities and equipment to cave dive in the best cave diving area in the world. But this trip the Manager, Tony DeRosa, went the extra mile. When my results for my Covid PCR test (required by the Canadian government) failed to arrive as expected Tony called the medical centre to get an update. When their response was less than satisfactory, he hopped in his car, went to the Medical Centre and after much pressure, our test results were found (they had been mislaid) and Tony delivered them to us personally thus ensuring that we could successfully return the next day to Canada. I also appreciated that the resort and staff all adhered closely to Covid safety protocols, making me feel safe staying there. I look forward to returning again for many more years.

Two friends and I stayed in the 3rd floor 2 BR apartment recently and it was marvelous. The view was to die for, the food excellent, and the rooftop bar lovely. Our apartment was beautifully decorated and super clean and comfortable, with lovely blue tile. The balcony looked over the beach and sea and was just such a pleasure to wake up to every morning and to return to from our ventures.
We walked up and down the beach to check out the neighboring resorts and came to the conclusion that the Villas deRosa has the best beach, best ocean waves, and nicest staff by far. Small and personal, the employees have been with the owners for years and it shows - excellent service and a great family feeling. The restaurant serves delicious food too. We were a bit of a pain - we broke our coffee carafe, and asked for ice and fresh tortillas (to cook ourselves) and there was never any hesitation. The design of the hotel with stairs and hallways open to breezes and beautiful archways giving glimpses of sea and forest were a bonus.
Stay here if you like a quiet, relaxing vacation. We met a number of folks who've been returning for years.
And we loved the eco consciousness - there was even a place to put our compost from the meals we cooked in our place.

Vacationed for a week with friends in a 3 bedroom condo at Villas Derosa in Aventuras Akumal …Which is approximately an hour and 15 minutes south of Cancun. The villas are directly on a sandy beach, with palapas for shade and lounge chairs and are well-kept ..well designed ..well decorated With a wonderful clean pool in the rear of the building… And great air conditioners in the bedrooms! The Place is serviced by a housekeeper who comes daily and completely takes care of your place.. makes your bed, sweeps the sand out , cleans your bathroom And keeps you in supply of paper towels , toilet paper and bottled water. The groundskeepers rake the sand And keep the little pool on the porch full of fresh water to rinse your feet before you go inside. The place is run by Tony, the best Concierge i’ve experienced. He not only met all our needs and request but he did so with a smile. We were three women with lots of questions and he graciously made sure we were kept informed and provided us with tips we needed about the location and things to do and what to see and how to get the most out of our weeks stay in Mexico. they have their own food service which I must say provided us with excellent fare at a reasonable price served on our patio on the beach! It doesn’t get any better than this. And to top it off next-door to us was a little bikini bar where they released newborn sea turtles nightly! Truly edge of dream vacation and a great place. Great price too by the way!

Great value & service. From the moment we arrived, Tony took great care of us. Room was a great price, room service food was delivered quickly and was hot and delicious. The beach area was very peaceful. It’s holiday week and we were very lucky to get any room. We have a garden/pool view but are hoping to check out the very spacious ocean view suites. We extended our stay to enjoy this tranquil place that is not crowded like all of the other nearby hotels. I’ve owned 2 boutique hotel/villas for many years, and I will definitely come back again.

This was my third time back, I loved it here! Felt very safe staying here, the cleaning protocol that is being used is comforting. This was a family trip, we booked a ground level 3 bedroom. It was great, woke up enjoyed coffee right on the beach. Nice to have water, coffee, sugar and filter available. The bar/restaurant on the beach is very convenient. No need to go anywhere to enjoy drinks and food. The beach is nice and sandy. We were lucky enough to see hundreds of baby turtles hatch, and make a run for the beach. This was an amazing experience. Tony is a great host! Went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. Took time to talk to us, which was a great way for us about Learn about the area, he provided grate tips on cenotes and other attractions.. He let use the kayak, ice chest at no additional charge. It’s the little things that make this place, a home away from home. Highly recommend Villas DeRosa💕

This place is as advertised: small, family owned, quiet, fabulous beach front location. What it doesn’t advertise sufficiently is the superlative, really top notch commitment to customer service for its clientele. The staff there is great, from the office, to housekeeping, the bartender, groundskeeper and cooks. They care, and when you are on vacation, that it important. There are loads of condos and hotels to pick from, and service is villas des rosa’s distinction. Whenever we inquired, they delivered. A bag of ice, guacamole and chips, a coffeemaker carafe, a shrimp dinner, no problem. Housekeeping cleaned and resupplied daily. Great advice on cenotes. The beachfront offered nice palapas, deck chairs for everyone and a hassle free experience. The roof top bar and separate massage area got used! Our kitchen was adequately supplied with newer Rachel ray cookware and gas stove. We used it. The living room and balcony were great. The only drawback is the dungeon like bedroom, lacking windows. We would come back.

I read one review where someone said be careful or you will pass the dirt road off the highway well they were right, Eileen laughed for three nights as I passed the dirt road at night. LOL
We stayed 6 days at the resort and had a awesome time. The staff was great. Tony was an excellent host very attentive, thanks again Tony. This was a last minute get away, we stayed there in the height of turtle season mid August,
Eileen walked the beach every night finding nesting turtles and hatchlings. For a small Beach there were hundreds of turtle nests.
We did 4 days of diving in the cenotes our guide Erick Rosenstein was was terrific, I totally recommend using him, Tony will set it up as he did everything. Finding out Tony's parents charted a lot of the cenotes back in the 80s was cool. You can chat with his mom as she makes you a drink at the bar.
We had a beach side condo it was great and reasonable, clean, plenty of bottled drinking water, kitchen was perfect for our needs, ac in the bedroom was great. View from the Balcony was awesome as was the roof top.
Most of the time there was a nice breeze coming off the ocean but in mid August it can get a bit muggy on the balcony, maybe a ceiling fan on the balcony or another one in the living area but don't let that discourage you. Plenty of places to get wet between the beach and the pool. Very Shallow reef you can snorkel or
scuba dive from the beach.
We lucked out in middle of hurricane season we had clear blue sky's every day and night Perfect sunrises every morning. We never turned on the TV.
There is a lot to do in the area, we went into Tulum a few nights and found some great street Taco places and bought them back to the condo, Some really good restaurants in Tulum and Akumal Just ask Tony.

Villas de Rosa is a second generation resort. My first trip here was in 1996, when the resort was owned by Tony Sr. and Nancy DeRosa. I have been back many times over the years and have always been made to feel welcome. The resort is now run by Tony Jr. and his significant other Samantha. They are both so friendly, as is the staff, and go out of their way to make sure all of their guests have a wonderful stay, The resort itself is small with only 38 rooms and they are on one of the nicest beaches in the Akumal area. Everything is clean and well kept and if you have ANY problem, you just tell Tony or Sammy and it will be immediately taken care of. Love this place.

Our group stayed at Villas DeRosa for one week. Awesome trip. Hotel pickup , good food, very clean and friendly. Owner was very accommodating making sure we had tanks for diving each day or anything else we might need. Beach is beautiful and clean. This was my 21st trip there and I wouldn’t stay anywhere else!

We visited for the first time with a group of friends for a destination wedding, who knows this place very well and it did not disappoint. The staff was phenomenal and took very good care of us all. The food and drinks were delicious, snorkeling was great and Tony helped us arrange excursions including transportation for visiting cenotes, diving and more. I love that it did not have a touristy feel and it was super easy to catch a Collectivo on the main road to get around. And it was such a special treat to witness part of the turtle hatching season! We will definitely be back and would highly recommend this place. :)
