About this property

Amazing Tao loft overlooking the golf course.

Do you enjoy the luxury of all-inclusive resorts but crave more adventure and wish to see the real Mexico? Then this gorgeous, spacious, fully equipped and professionally decorated condo is for you. Lao-Zen is the best combination of luxurious surroundings, safety, onsite amenities, great location to access offsite entertainment options and amazing affordability!

Lao-Zen is professionally designed and decorated to be the perfect retreat - relaxing and inviting, spacious yet intimate. The condo is outfitted with internet so you can stay as connected as you like, a 55" flat screen smart TV to watch movies, and a bluetooth stereo to enjoy listening to your music. The sofa was selected for its lounging comfort and option to pull out for sleeping. The kitchen is fully equipped with high quality appliances, pots, dishes and utensils if you wish to prepare your own meals to enjoy on the terrace dining table.

The terrace is amazing - with both a dining table for four as well as a lounge area to enjoy reading a book with a hot coffee or cold margarita. The terrace is fully screened in so you can enjoy meals drinks or longing with a good book without any bugs to worry about. The terrace overlooks the 5th green of the stunning Bahia Principe golf course which offers the entertainment of watching golfers try to sink their putts. Rather than facing another building or parking lot, you are facing nature allowing you to fully relax. The colorful songbirds that land in the nearby tree canopy offer natural music to the ears.

The terrace is on the second floor - that means there are no jungle creatures and way less insects than the ground floor. Because the terrace is covered, it isn't as hot as the penthouse rooftops, so it can be enjoyed on the sunniest days or even on a rainy day. In addition, full sized screen doors allow you to leave the terrace doors open to enjoy the fresh air indoors without any worries about uninvited visitors.

Essential to a great vacation is an amazing bed. To rest in Lao-Zen, retreat to the beautifully decorated bedroom with a comfortable king size bed with high quality bedding. The bedroom walls slide in order to be closed for extra privacy. There are blackout blinds on the window for those who like to sleep late and a safe for your valuables and electronics (large enough for your laptop and several other devices). The stylish ensuite bathroom has a large shower that never runs out of hot water due to the on-demand hot water heater along with the softest fluffiest towels. Here for a longer stay? No problem with the washer and dryer unit to do your laundry. There is even a drying rack for more delicate items.

When it's time to cool down, head over to one of the pools. The pool is just off the 4th hole golf fairway with lots of trees and birds. There are lots of pool loungers and umbrellas and a BBQ grill so you can grill up some fresh fish for lunch. There are plenty of tables for socializing and meeting people from around the world.

If you want to go "all inclusive" for the day - no problem! Just purchase a day pass, hop on the free resort shuttle and enjoy all the amenities of the five star Bahia Principe resort. Pools, restaurants, shows and the fabulous beaches, and when you're done at the resort, come back to your beautiful relaxing condo.

Lao-Zen is located in the Tao Inspired Living community within the Bahia Principe Resort Property and is a great safe location (double gated) to enjoy all that the Mayan Rivieria offers. Tao is right in the middle of the Mayan Riviera near Akumal with Playa del Carmen 22 miles North and Tulum 15 miles South.

A rental car is recommended to fully enjoy all the surrounding attractions of the area.

Within a 30 minute drive of Tao you will find:

Multiple beaches and cenotes for swimming and snorkelling
Multiple golf courses
Adventure parks for ziplining, ATVs, etc.
Akumal for snorkelling with turtles
Tulum town and ruins
Playa Del Carmen nightlife and shopping
Cirque du soleil
Xcaret, Xplor, Xoximilco and Xel-ha and the new Xsenses

Beautiful TAO retreat in the jungle
Fantastic place to sit back, relax, enjoy the sounds of the jungle. Set your own pace to see the wonderful sites around you, then enjoy the comforts of home. Not too far from beach and a five minute walk to a beautiful infinity pool. Friendly people to visit by the pool! Highly recommended!

Long stay heaven
We spent one month and enjoyed our stay. Beautiful environment, friendly and helpful people around the complex. Bed was very comfortable and by not closing the movable walls we could look straight from our bed out to the trees and skies. Screened in patio added floor space and we only closed the sliding glass doors when there was a bad rain storm. Patio furniture is also very comfortable. High quality cooking utensils and equipment much appreciated. Having a washer and dryer in the condo was a bonus. All the condos are equipped with small water heaters so showering is in and out or a bit refreshing. Long hot showers are not ideal in the heat and humidity we experienced. Marcus was readily available for info and help. We were able to use the shuttles to travel and visit all four Bahia hotels. However when we had a car for a few days we were only admitted to Sian Ka’an and Tulum. Security everywhere The shuttle would drop us off at the highway where we easily and quickly could take the “collectivo” or local bus to go to surrounding towns like Tulum, Akumal, Playa del Carmen etc. It costs very little which is good because taxis are definitely overpriced. Great grocery store called Chadrieu there. Anything you need can be obtained. We enjoyed the flexibility of activities and places to visit. Having some physical limitations kept us closer to the condo but I would highly recommend this location whether it be couples or families with children. Thanks Marcus and family. Hope to be back in the near future.

Better than described
I loved my stay at Marcus' condo. I felt safe, secure, and comfortable. The condo is professionally decorated and so much nicer than others I've seen. The sounds of nature and the solitude were a big plus. Overall I would definitely stay here again.

Luxurious, peaceful retreat
Communication with Marc was prompt and easy. The condo, Tao residences pools, wellness center, and surroundings were just as beautiful as in the pictures . We loved having use of the Bahia Principe Resorts and enjoyed the daily 9pm live shows at Sian Kaan. The beach club is very private and has a fantastic location on the beach. You can buy drinks and food there. Everything we tried was really good and very reasonably priced. We cooked simple meals and found everything we needed to do so in the kitchen. Soriana off of the main highway in Playa del Carmen was the best supermarket for grocery shopping, but Chedraui off of the main highway in Puerto Aventuras is a great option too, and it is only 15 -20 minutes north of the condo. We had a car rental, which we feel is a must to really enjoy your stay, and used it to visit some of the numerous wonderful places you find in the area. We can’t wait to go back soon!

Lovely loft in Tao
My husband and I just returned from a 9 night stay in this lovely Tao loft. It is immaculately appointed with beautiful, comfortable furniture both inside and out and has everything you could ever need or want for your vacation, from beach towels and mats to umbrellas and beach chairs. And when we weren’t out enjoying the beautiful golf course ourselves, we enjoyed eating out on the lanai and watching golfers putt on the 5th green. While the owner provided us with a lot of great information on things to do in the surrounding area, we opted to spend nearly every afternoon lounging poolside with a cocktail and enjoying the serenity of the Tao community. It was so peaceful to sit amongst the lush greenery that envelops the complex and affords residents the sounds of all of the local birds. This was our first trip to the Akumal area and we could not have been happier with our choice of accommodations.

About the host

Hosted by Marcus Matzeit

Host profile image
We are a Canadian family of four that has searched far and wide for a tropical getaway. The requirements are: tropical climate, near the ocean, lots of different activities to enjoy, lots of restaurants and tourist amenities, easy access to an international airport, and a safe, beautiful community. We found our dream getaway with the Lao-zen loft, in the Tao Inspired Living community, on the Mayan Riviera.

Why they chose this property

Tao is a stunningly beautiful community that has everything going for it. The community is nestled in the gorgeously landscaped Bahia Principe golf course and residence property. It's set up for 24 hour safety as visitors must pass through the Bahia Principe security gate as well as the Tao community security gate. It has access to numerous swimming pools, beaches, restaurants, and Mayan riviera attractions - if you want something fun to do, you can find it nearby. Alternatively if you want to relax, bird watch and attend yoga or exercise classes everyday, you don't even need to leave the Tao community. Spa services are also available to ensure you have every opportunity to enjoy your vacation.

Tao owners and guests can use the amenities of the adjacent 5 star Bahia Principe resort for free. If you want food and drink at the Bahia Principe included you can buy a resort all-inclusive day pass. Just take the golf cart shuttle over to the resort of your choosing and enjoy yourself. On the other hand, if you want to go and explore the amazing food, sights and experiences of the Mayan riviera, you will have great difficulty choosing from the incredible options. From visiting Mayan ruins or colorful towns, to the vibrant city of Playa del Carmen, to snorkelling or diving near one of the planet's largest reefs.....there is something for everyone!

What makes this property unique

Lao-Zen overlooks the golf course so it has a great view of the insanely green golf course along with the added benefit of privacy. From the second story terrace, the beautiful lush trees allow for great bird watching and relaxation. You will not hear any road or city noises, but rather the sounds and bird songs of the jungle.

Lao-Zen is professionally decorated with a feel of sophisticated yet organic luxury. The condo feels like a home away from home where you can relax after a long day enjoying the activities of your choosing.
