Location: Akumal, Quintana Roo, Yucatan, Mayan Riviera, Mexico (Center of the Riviera Maya 60 miles south of Cancun)
Accommodations: Condominium, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 4)
Akumal is ideally located in the center of "Riviera Maya" and is only 1 hour south of Cancun. It offers the most beautiful diving and snorkeling waters in Mexico: Half Moon Bay (where the Condo is located) and Akumal Bay and Yal Ku Lagoon (both within easy walking distance from the Condo). Akumal offers a variety of restaurants with both beachfront and tropical garden settings, some offering live international music, a fresh bakery, small grocery stores including US products, a fresh produce market once or twice a week, dive shops, a travel office (TSA) which can arrange land and sea tours, Internet Cafe, yoga classes, massage & reflexology, a fitness center, bike rentals, laundromat and a few quaint boutiques. Akumal is also an ecological center which
especially protects its sea turtles and their nesting grounds. You can see the turtles nest in front of YOOL CAANAL Condo #3 from about April to November of each year. There is no "hard sell" at Akumal; this is a lovely, international residential community which offers the slow pace of an undiscovered Mexican village and the amenities of a "home away from home" for those who wish to get away from the beaten tracks of tourism.
Within a half hour radius of Akumal, you can visit other popular and picturesque sites in Quintana Roo, which include Playa del Carmen, Xcaret, XelHa and Tulum or other "secret" places you may want to discover on your own. You will find our central location makes it very easy to shop, dine, swim with dolphins, play golf, explore caves, swim in crystal clear cenotes, visit ruins or wildlife preserves, wherever you choose, whenever you choose. Of course, you can always decide to spend a delicious day on our private palm tree beach under a palapa sipping margaritas or lemonade, or explore our beautiful waters of Half Moon Bay which contains a variety of coral and schools of tropical fish. THE CHOICE IS ALWAYS YOURS!!!
As YOOL CAANAL CONDO #3 is centrally located on Half Moon Bay, our full length balcony offers a panoramic view of the multi shades of turquoise waters in the bay and beyond the coral reef. We have our own lovely, private, white sand beach with palm trees, palapas and chaise lounges, but you can see the entire beach & bay from our upper level condo. We are unique because we are not amid high rises or other condos, but rather, surrounded by native foiliage and only a small "casa" which gives us such an unlimited view. YC#3 consists of a full condo-length beachfront balcony where you can see multi colored sunrises or sunsets, enjoy your morning coffee or tea, dine by candlelight, or just enjoy the balmy breeze while searching for falling stars Our spacious living room, dining room and fully equipped kitchen all overlook the bay as we have a full wall of windows between the balcony & living areas. Our master bedroom includes a king size bed, newly tiled floor, a mural wall painting, plenty of storage space and a view of the bay and tropical garden. Our master bath has recently been updated with a Mexican flare and includes an oversized sunken tub overlooking the tropical garden. Our guest bedroom has 2 twin beds which can be converted to a king size bed, a private balcony overlooking the garden, newly tiled floors, limited view of the bay & again, plenty of storage space. The guest bath also has been updated and has a shower with a view of the bay. Both bedrooms have air conditioning; however, all rooms (except baths) have overhead fans for cool, ventilated living so air conditioning is rarely needed as air flows through the condo from 4 sides. We have US/Mexican management in Akumal, daily maid service, beach and garden maintenance and supply bottled water free of charge. If you need anything extra while staying in YC#3, please do not hesitate to ask. We hope you choose YOOL CAANAL #3 as your private tropical paradise and "home away from home"!!!
