The space
Villa Lumina is simply and elegantly designed in an unmistakably tropical Mexican beachside setting. The living room, dining room and kitchen are framed by a beautiful woven palm roof, known as a 'palapa' and the living room has huge, comfortable sofas that you can chat or read a book. Our open plan social spaces allow groups and families to be together, without feeling crowded and on top of one another :)
High speed internet throughout the home with Satlink!

Our space is decorated with pieces we have collected in India, Bali, Nepal and Mexico and original pieces by local artists. Our stunning living-edge dining room table is made from tropical wood, and seats 14 people comfortably. Its beauty is reflected in a smaller table poolside and tropical wood furniture throughout.

The open kitchen offers a large refrigerator and additional storage space for food items. The space invites guests to accompany the cook, and learn if they should wish, all the while being with the rest of the group.
We also have a large BBQ, perfect for grilling fish, veggies or meat, and a traditional comal for making tortillas!

The bedrooms are kept simple and fresh-looking, our custom designed clothing storage is also made of tropical wood. All rooms have overhead fans and a unique system of window and door slats to allow ventilation at all times. The bathrooms are brightly tiled and reflect the colors of the pacific.
Our pool area has shady sofas with sunbrella fabric and a living edge table and our tropical hardwood sunbeds have pull-out tables for you to place your drinks or reading glasses.

The pool itself has a seating area and a small paddling pool to one side for smaller children.

Access to the beach? Walk a few steps to the edge of the garden, it's right there!

We have colorful woven hammocks for you to relax in the shade of our palm trees as you listen to the waves. It really doesn't get any better.
Enjoy the incredible sunsets, sunrises, walks on the beach, dolphins swimming by, pelicans as they fly past. It is so beautiful and wonderful, it will blow your mind!

No noise but the sea, just the occasional fisherman walking by - Villa Lumina is an unbeatable tropical getaway. An eco-friendly home, Villa Lumina is the perfect choice for enjoying the beauty of nature for people with criteria and taste.

Other things to note
We have a guard on the main gate as well as a guard checking the area at night. Federal law forbids bonfires on the beach and no fireworks ( we all have straw roofs) Please respect our neighbors by not being excessively loud as well as respecting the condo and house rules which are posted in each room.
***Warning- as in most of the Oaxacan coast, this is open ocean and not safe for swimming. There are nearby bays if you wish to dive into the sea. I paddle by the house and go waist deep at the most, there are strong currents.
