This one is very new, lovely comfortable furniture and beds. Everything you could think of for cooking, which we love. But it does not justify the price as compared to most others in the area in my opinion. I preferthe open feel of the older units with better views and prices about $100 less a night. But as I said, just my opinion.. ##### Pat D.

The condo has great amenities, like comfortable furniture on the balcony and sharp kitchen knives. We don’t speak Spanish so it was a little challenging to communicate with the property manager. ##### Mim S. Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin E. 23 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great condo, great staff, seamless process- sargassum was bad but still had great snorkeling The view was stunning. The unit was clean and tastefully decorated. Beds were comfortable. Showers were nice. We lacked nothing. Daily housekeeping (I’ll misspell her name but Elihija was awesome). Pool and grounds were serviced daily. S&S vacations was EXTREMELY responsive- replied to virtually every email we sent immediately, even on a Sunday, which really helped since this was our first time down there, especially going to a foreign country. The property manager was also very responsive and attentive. The only downside was the sargassum which inhibits access to the water but that is beyond their control and I was easily able to walk five minutes down the beach to the left to some excellent snorkeling. There’s a portion of Half Moon Bay referred to as Coral Islands near the north end which is protected from the waves and has phenomenal snorkeling. I saw many great fish including French angel fishes, parrot fishes, yellowtail damselfishes, beaugregory, sergeant Majors, as well as a flounder, baby sea turtle, stingray, and two squids. The outdoor shower at the pool was refreshing and came in handy after snorkeling I also went diving through Akumal dive shop and had a very nice dive and saw an enormous sea turtle as well as many wonderful fish. If you’re more into the beach than diving or snorkeling, Akumal Bay is 0.7 miles away and has a beautiful sandy beach if you just want to hang out at the beach and do some snorkeling and look for sea turtles. Our favorite restaurants were La Lunita, Taverna, Turtle Bay Café, and Jungle Fish. The food at La Buena Vida was underwhelming but it’s worth a visit at least once for a drink with eclectic decor and a beautiful view. Honestly I was sad to leave and I hope that we can return. ##### Kevin E. Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori K. 8 Mar 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Honest Overview The Good : Akumal is a great beachy vibe community. Food is excellent and the walkability to restaurants and stores is perfect. Our fave restaurants were La Buena Vida, Taverna and Turtle Bay Bakery. Yal Ku cenote is also walkable and was the best cenote to visit. The staff were top notch at Nikte Ha 4\. Daily cleaning was wonderful. Convenient small store across the street very handy. Could be Improved: the linens and towels in the unit need to be changed. I frequently had to wash them as they were starting to get smelly quickly. The furniture is also only ok, on the comfort scale. The beach is not the easiest to walk but the view is breathtaking. Sunrise right out the window is amazing. You do need water shoes as getting in and out of the ocean is rocky. The sargassum bloomed for 2 of our 3 week vacation which make snorkelling and swimming less enjoyable. Pool was lovely and clean. ##### Lori K.
