Discover “Akumal Breakers” and make memories for a lifetime!
Akumal Breakers is a luxury 4 bedroom, 3 ½ bath stone beach front villa in a gated neighborhood in the heart of the Riviera Maya! The villa is located in South Akumal, which is just over 1 hour south of the Cancun Airport between Playa del Carmen and Tulum.
South Akumal Beach is one of the best, most relaxing locations on the entire Riviera Maya. Our beautiful bay is protected by a stretch of coral breakers about 200 yards from the beach and offers excellent snorkeling, swimming and kayaking. The charming town of Akumal which has several quaint restaurants and bars is only 1 mile away. Tulum is only 15 miles south.
Akumal Breakers has one of the best beach locations in all of S. Akumal. The white sandy beach is located only 25 steps from the villa and is great for outdoor games, building sand castles or just chilling out all day and listening to the waves hit the breakers.
You will enjoy a large, refreshing pool which features a waterfall and jumping stone. If your kids want to enjoy a "real pool", then Akumal Breakers is the place for you. We also have a private hot and cold outdoor shower which is great to clean up the children after the beach. The adults like it too!
The villa is as stunning as it's location on the beach. The villa was built by a well known local architect and reflects traditional Mexican styles with Mayan influences. The entire villa exterior and casita is covered with hand cut “Piedra Maya Vista” stone making this one of the most unique and distinguished beach front properties in the area. In addition to adding even more natural beauty and strength to the house, the additional stone also keeps the interior cooler during the summer months. All of the floors are made of Terracotta tile accented with Mayan wood.
Two of the four bedrooms are considered Private Suites and are located on the second level. The “North Suite” has a King size bed, private ocean front balcony, private bath and iPod player with a small safe in closet. The “South Suite” has a King size bed, private ocean front balcony, private bath, and an IPod player. The "South Suite" is oversized and provides ample space for a crib or an additional Aero Bed (both are available).
On the main floor, you will find the “Beach Room” which has a King size bed overlooking the pool and the beach. There is also a large safe in the closet. The adjacent “Garden Room” is great for children. It has two full size beds, board games, a Sony PlayStation2, DVD player and large TV. The Beach and Garden rooms share a large bathroom.
People with walking disabilities don’t have to climb steps to enter the living area or the beach bedroom. Although the villa is not officially ADA approved, a wheelchair can pass from the street to the living room and the beach bedroom via a gradually sloped concrete pathway (34 inches is the most narrow part).
Additional features include:
• Fully air-conditioned (except stairwell to the observatory).
• FREE high speed wireless internet. We are dependent on TelMex and it generally works well.
• FREE unlimited phone calls to the USA and Canada. Again, dependent on TelMex.
• Fully equipped kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, travertine countertops accented with a Talavera tile backsplash.
• Large stone and stainless steel outdoor charcoal grill / smoker.
• Rooftop observatory and tanning area.
• 2 two person kayaks for all day fun.
• Sony Flat screen TV and DVD plus a Bose Wave Radio Player at the bar.
• Sky Satellite which features some US channels such as Fox News, CNN International and several movie and music channels.
• Seating for 6 at the main dining table plus 4 more at the game table.
• Lounge chairs for the beach and the rooftop observatory.
• All towels and linens.
• Crib and high chair, plus one Aerobed.
• Artwork from all over Mexico and Central America.
• Our on-site staff lives in the guest house and takes perfect care of the interior and exterior of the villa. They can also cook some spectacular Mayan and Mexican dishes for a small fee. You’re going to love Akumal Breakers!

We brought our 4 kids (15, 13, 11, 9) hoping for an adventure of a lifetime. Akumal Breakers was the perfect home base! After seeing several local ruins, beaches, restaurants, and sights, we loved returning to this amazing home away from home each day. The home had everything you may possibly need, no details were over looked. Every room and bathroom is spacious, clean and beautifully decorated with local art. Things we LOVED: the safe/gated neighborhood, exclusive & beautiful beach, watching the crabs at night, swimming in the pool, reading books and relaxing in the hammocks, kayaking, swimming with the turtles, stingrays & we even saw a barracuda! We really appreciated the guest book that provided every detail or questions we might have about the house, and great restaurant & shopping suggestions! There are some amazing restaurants within walking distance (or short drive), just down the beach. Xel-Ha, Coba, Tulum and Chichen-Itza were our favorite excursions. Even though we had days packed with activities, we took a few days and did nothing but relax and enjoy Akumal Breakers, pool/beach backyard...it truly is a piece of paradise. Our family wants to express our gratitude to Lunda for sharing their family's beautiful property. Mirna and Luis take great care of the grounds and home, and they were there to answer questions and help with any needs, it was obvious that they too love Akumal Breakers. We can't wait to return!

Our stay was perfect!! We loved the villa , loved having a pool entirely to ourselves and the area under the palm trees on the beach quickly became the place to be! The town of Akumal was wonderful and the people so welcoming and friendly! The house couple, Mirna and Luis, were so sweet and very attentive! They made us feel like royalty!! It was a vacation we will never forget and we will DEFINITELY be back!! We cannot recommend Akumal Breakers enough!

Akumal Breakers was the perfect villa for our family. The beach was sandy and the snorkeling was fantastic. The pool was fun and the outdoor shower with HOT water was a definite plus. Cooking out on the grill was an added treat. Luis & Mirna were the perfect hosts and kept the villa and grounds in tip top shape. We look forward to our next visit.
