“wonderful as always” Luna azul is a special place located on a special beach, where the turtles swim right up to your front door. One day we saw 11 of them while snorkelling. The local restaurants (Buena Vida and Lunita) are not supplemented by a new discovery in the local town called La Ultima Maya.

“We had a wonderful time in Mexico and villa areccife played a bi” We stayed at the villa areccife for a week in November of 2012. I am not a resort fan therefore we've rented a lot of houses in different places. And this is one of the best. It is a new, modern, well-appointed, well-equipped house. It had everything we needed. It is located in the residential part of the resort. When we stayed there only a few houses were built making the villa private and quite place. The villa staff is very nice and helpful. On our arrival despite the late hours (around 8PM) we were greeted by alex Estrella a villa manager, who also works at the resort. When we arrived at the Cancun airport late afternoon even though I reserved a car at Herz, thinking it is a respectable car rental company, there were no cars available. We had to take a taxi to the villa. Next morning alex drove my husband to a car rental place. Whenever we had problems with the villa alex was always available to deal with them. The housekeeper Diana was at the villa every day (even on Sunday) making it sparkling clean. We had a wonderful time in Mexico and villa areccife played a big role in it.

“Great Vacation at Villa Ka Kuxta” Villa Ka Kukta was a little paradise for all my family 5 adults and 7 children.We all had a wonderful time. Akumal is a wonderful place to stay, the villa is in a secluded location and we really appreciated that. Akumal Playa and Village are very nice, we enjoyed the restaurants and the boutiques there. It is easy to visit some of the Maya sites: we went to Tulum, Koba and Chichen Itza. We enjoyed Christmas Mass in Chemuyil, people there were very friendly, in fact all mexicans are really very nice. The management and staff at the villa were perfect, they cooked nice dinners for us and did everything they could to make our stay pleasurable. We were sad to leave and sorry we could not stay longer (the trip from France is quite long and tiresome, but my son and son-in-law had to go back to work, a week is too short...) All of us will keep wonderful memories of this awsome place and we wish you a great 2103.

“In a nutshell, perfect!” We loved staying at La Mirage. It was quiet, welcoming, safe, well maintained and immaculate. Staff was helpful and accommodating, and owner was very responsive and patient with my questions. Booking was a breeze and everything was just as we agreed to--no surprises. The location was great, and we took full advantage of snorkeling right at our doorstep. Great eateries next door and within a short walk. The place had lots of lovely Mexican charm. Very relaxing. We can't wait to go back!

“Feedback on Mayamor from recent renter” Beautiful setting, lovely house. It would have been helpful to have the room arrangements more fully described and the fact that a washer and dryer was not accessible to the renters, only to the maid. The cooking arrangements were difficult, the oven did not work, there were not many kitchen tools, etc. There was no hot water in the bathroom in the casita by the driveway.

“Perfect for us” I decided to return to akumal after a great holiday in December in an all inclusive resort with my partner. This time I was travelling with my sister and two friends and we wanted more independant accomodation. I love akumal because it is a tranquil destination with stunning beaches and wildlife yet just enough bars and restaurants to keep me entertained in the evenings. The appartment was very spacious, well equipt and excellent value for money. It takes about half an hour to gentley stroll to akumal beach where most of the activity is concentrated. Half moon bay is a two minute walk and is much quieter with equally as good snorkelling. Around half moon bay there are a few bars/restaurants including every body's favourite, La Buena Vida, operating a nightly happy hour between 5-7 with swings, hammocks and tree houses. Akumal is a great base to explore the Yuctan. There are many fantastic attractions near by including Mayan ruins, Xel Ha (A beautiful lagoon with a life times worth of activities) and many cenotes. Jorge, the owner of the appartment lives next door and is extremely helpful and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend this appartment and I would like to return in the future if my bank balance allows! Muchas gracias Jorge! Sian, Bethan, Rhiannon and Carlotte. x

“Paradise!” Charley and I stayed at the condos over July 4 holiday, for the first time since we bought the fabulous spot in april! We drove to Playa for shopping and found great local artisans making furniture and artwork, which you can see in our new photos. There are three turtle nests on our beach, waiting for their mad dash to the sea, and we swam in the calm waters of Half Moon Bay. Truly, Akumal is so laid back, so easy and fun, we call it Paradise.

“Wonderful week at Casa Magica” We had a fantastic week at Casa Magica with Marco and Reyna. The house is beautiful and spacious. Our party consisted of two families; 4 adults and 7 children (aged 1-9). Shortly after our arrival Gustavo visited us at the house and gave us a basket overflowing with fruit, which was very generous! Each of the large bedrooms is beautifully decorated and gave our families some privacy. The kitchen was very well stocked with cookware and an assortment of dishes. The yard was in excellent condition, with comfortable beach loungers and lots of shade under the cabana and umbrellas. The landscaping is beautiful and very well maintained. Marco and Reyna were perfect hosts and we were sad to say good bye to them. We thoroughly enjoyed swimming in the pool with the children and exploring the beach every day. Unfortunately the weather was too windy to make use of the kayaks as the waves made it unsafe. We enjoyed several days playing in the sand and swimming/snorkelling with the children in Akumal. We spent a day at Xcaret where the children enjoyed seeing the animals and swimming at the beach in the tubes. The evening performance is excellent and we would consider returning to Xcaret just for the evening performance and the meal option. The other family that stayed in the home with us also spent a day at Xel-Ha and were very impressed with the variety of fish they saw. The house is very conveniently located along the coast, making it easy and quick to visit Playa del Carmen for some shopping or explore the ruins at Tulum. We would definitely consider returning to Casa Magica again and would recommend the home and its staff without hesitation.

“Fabulous Villa” Villa Palmilla is a beautiful villa. It is truly a pleasure the moment you walk through the gates and enter the courtyard and doesn't end. Everything is perfect---the decor, the staff, the location. Can't wait to get back next year. Have stayed at Villa Palmilla the past three summers.

“Great Stay” We stayed at the Casa from June 30th thru July 8th 2015. The house is located in a small, quiet neighborhood and great for those who don't like the big resort scene. Short drive to Akumal Bay and Tulum. Great beach 8 minutes drive from the house. Nice backyard to relax and read. Great place to come back to after a big day of site seeing and beaches.

“Villa de los Suenos” We loved the house and the wonderful couple who took care of the property. The location is much more private than other properties in Akumal. The lot is large and you are barely aware that there are other houses nearby. There are many comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces to relax. The lagoon entrance view from the pool is ever-changing and the ocean sounds surround you. Our only problem was finding the house. Driving directions referred to landmarks and signs that were missing or led us in circles. Bring your own map, but be aware that Akumal maps list the house as "Casa de los Suenos" rather than "Villa de los Suenos".
