My wife and I flew into Cancun from Milwaukee. After meeting our son, his wife, and their 13 month old son at the airport (they flew from New York), we rented a car for our drive to Akumal. The condo was perfect for the 5 of us. We stayed four nights. There was a porta crib for the baby. Amenities included internet, free USA today, off-street parking, 2 bedrooms (king bed for us), 2 bathrooms, plenty of space, and most importantly there was first floor walk-out to the beautiful beach. The view was gorgeous! Daily maid service was nice - they washed our dishes too. The area had excellent restaurants. We enjoyed Turtle Bay Beach Cafe for breakfast, Lucy's Kitchen for lunch (doesn't look impressive, but great fish tacos), Lol-Ha for dinner (on the beach), La Buena Vida for drinks and appetizers while watching the NFL playoff games (just down the road), and Zamas for dinner (near Tulum) to name a few. We enjoyed the beach and went to the ruins in Tulum (must see) and the Ya Ku Lagoon (just down the road and worth checking out). The condo was clean and well maintained and exactly as described - just what we wanted. The on-site management office made check-in easy. We plan to return and stay even longer next time.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Akumal. The condo was better than expected and the breeze that came through right off the ocean made sleeping a dream. The people here are very, very nice and very helpful. We had a dinner, made by Letecia, in our condo one night and LOVED the experience. The town feels more authentic then a larger city- such as Puerto Adventruas, that we also love- and the food prices are better. The supermarket in Tulum is FANTASTIC! And cheap too! We would love to come back here!!!

Return to La Bahia

Family w/ 2 girls 12 & 13. We stayed in a La Bahia condo 2 years ago, an excellent stay and a tough act to follow, but this past week succeeded. There are a lot of nice condos in Half Moon Bay, it would be the exception if you managed to go wrong. But in addition to the location and the condo there is a third factor which can make a big difference: the support staff. There will always be some small issues that come up, sometimes large ones. The manager at La Bahia was exceptional, friendly, responsive, and creative in finding solutions. We snorkeled like crazy, ate at La Cueva (3x), La Buena Vida, and once on the pedestrain-only section of Playa Del Carmen, visited the Coba ruins (vs Tulum last time) - about a 45 minute drive, and went fishing - caught 7 barracuda over a 3 hours (arranged w/ waiter at La Cueva & it included them cooked up our catch for us!). We will be back!

Great Vacation

Took our first non-resort trip to Akumal, Mexico and had the best time. We were a little unsure of how it would be having to rent a car, drive around, park, and find groceries. My husband and myself had only done all inclusive resorts and we can honestly say I don't think we will do it again. We felt so comfortable with all the locals and the entire town of Akumal. Our room was amazing and had everything we needed and more. Clean, spacious, and how can you not love the sound and view of the ocean. The staff at La Bahia were friendly and helpful. Our security guard even came to our door to show us the seas turtles laying eggs multiple times. We ate at many great restaraunts near La Bahia, and right in town. Great food and atmosphere. The local grocery store also had everything we needed for snacking, or meals. We visited many senotes, took a cab to playa de carmen for a fun dinner and night out, and feel as if we still wanted to do so much more. We can only say wonderful things about Akumal and La Bahia. We hope to be back soon.

what a pleaseant surprize unit was more attractive than described maidand management were helpful and very gracious pristine beach lovely friendly town with several great restaurants and beach bars to enjoy and meet people. small shops and great prices for souvineers and picking up items you might have forgotten. I would park my car and never leave this little town until it was time to return home. However for the first time visitor there are tours available and most are a short distance away. the manager even printed our boarding passes. we had a delightful vacation and intend to return soon

Wonderful Vacation

We had a wonderful time in your condo. Everyone was very courteous and helpful, especially the security guy at night. He was so kind and knocked on our door when a turtle was nesting and also another night when eggs were hatching. We were so fortunate to be able to watch a turtle nest right beside our patio. We sat on the patio and watched the whole process that took about 3 hours. We also watched turtle playing in the bay right in front of the condo. The beds were very comfortable and it was a much more pleasant experience sleeping than the last time we were there. We will definitely be returning to Akumal and this particular condo. Our vacation was fantastic. Kerry

It really is Paradise! Can't wait to come back

We just returned and had a wonderful vacation! My parents-in-law said it was paradise. The condo is very nicely decorated, so clean and comfortable. The beds were also very comfortable- we all slept great- and it was nice to have so many amenities in the kitchen, as well as beach towels and extra snorkel masks (one set got left at home so that was helpful). WIFI was good to have and the signal was strong since it's right outside your unit The location is fabulous. Although it was windy and wavy, the left side of the bay was always calmer and we did quite a bit of snorkeling in that area. We also saw many turtles out front. The weather was of course hot, but the patio was always breezy and comfortable. All the staff were very friendly and helpful including the new office manager, security guard, maids, and groundskeepers. The groundskeepers were tidying up the coconut trees and offered us each one and when the security guard saw us trying to find hermit crabs, he helped us and found a big one. The maid left the condo spotless each day which was wonderful. We normally do a lot of day trips, but were so comfortable at the condo that we didn't want to leave. We did manage to fit in Dos Ojos, the lagoon, Tulum, and Playa del Carmen though. My parents in law are already talking about another trip next year and we've recommended your condo to many of our friends and colleagues. Thanks for opening your condo to us and we look forward to coming back! Best regards,

An absolutely beautiful condo in an incredible setting. Snorkeling in Half Moon Bay is spectacular. You are steps from the ocean in this condo. The cpndo has absolutely everything you need to make your stay comfortable. A wonderfully quiet and restful location far from the crowds in Cancun. I couldn't recommend more highly!

"Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to La Bahia #2. The location on Half Moon Bay is perfect, and the views from the condo are spectacular - we could see the Caribbean Sea from every room and watch the sunrise every morning while drinking our coffee on the patio. We love the convenience of being on the ground floor and walking onto the beach directly from the patio. The water is only about 30 yards away, and we could watch the turtles pop up for air just looking out the living room sliders. Snorkeling in the bay is wonderful - sea turtles, rays, squid, parrotfish, and many other colorful, tropical fish. Akumal has a lot to offer with its great restaurants and laid-back atmosphere. We highly recommend this condo!"

"Darrell and I had a wonderful time, as usual, at Akumal. The accommodations were great, as well as the staff that looked after us. We shall always keep you in mind when in need of a rental property and will pass along your name to our friends and family."
