Hi Bill, I was just thinking about you this morning and sending you an e-mail! Our trip was wonderful, and the accommodations were fabulous. Vincente was so pleasant and kind and always helpful when we had questions or needed anything. It was a very relaxing setting. We loved both Tulum and Akumal. We also enjoyed snorkeling in the bay right in front of the home. We would definitely do the trip again, and if it is ok, we would love to save your contact info to forward on to family & friends considering travel to Mexico.
