  We recently had the pleasure of staying at Seascape and are counting the months until we return! Truly a warm and wonderful home in a beautiful setting along Half Moon Bay.The condo was clean and spacious,beds were amazing! Waking up to the breeze from the Ocean and having the AC when needed,fans in the bathrooms were so appreciated!Diana has truly thought of every comfort needed when on a holiday. The staff were friendly and eager to help.We walked to the La Lunita for a wonderful dinner on the beach, LaBeuna Vida for some lively happy hours, the Loncheria in the village makes great guac,Lucy's kitchen the best ice cream,bbq chicken with all the trimming in Pueblo across the highway. Such a piece of paradise! We snorkeled and swam amongst the turtles and were happy to see the turtle nests along Half Moon Bay.First time for renting a car! Very safe and quiet. We have been coming to the Half Moon Bay area for 5 years now and Seascape is defintely a "10"!!!! Diana, thanks for all your helpful tips!

  What a wonderful vacation in Akumal! For a vacation rental, I prefer a smaller complex away from the hustle & bustle of the hot spots. La Sirena complex and specifically this condo (Seascape) were absolutely outstanding. Condo is colorful & comfortable & refreshing - you can tell that the owners also spend a lot of time here because of how well appointed the entire condo is. And I loved being on the ground floor corner unit - I spend every morning outside our door on the terraced beach in a chair with coffee and a book and then every evening in the same chair on the beach with a cocktail! Just doesn't get any better. The kitchen in the condo was exceptional -- recently renovated and nicely stocked with nice pots/pans/glassware/dishes - everything I needed to do whatever cooking I wanted. I've stayed in other places where the kitchen was either crammed to overflowing with what looked like casfoffs or so sparse we had to scavenge glasses & plasticware from fast food places. Seascape's kitchen was JUST RIGHT!!! The La Sirena pool & gardens are outstanding also - very inviting and a lot greener and more private than many of the complexes in the area. I loved being able to snorkle right outside the condo and even more snorkeling just s short walk away at Yal Ku lagoon. And Diana's information sheet about things to see & do in the area was invaluable - although I must admit I loved the condo so much that I was quite content to spend most of my days right on my own little beach away from home. I highly recommend this condo to anyone wanting to visit the Yukatan area without staying in one of the larger touristy towns like Cancun or Playa del Carmen.

  Beautiful view, fabulous decor, conscientious and helpful staff. I will return ASAP. This does not feel like a rental. It feels like a well-decorated home that has a wonderful view of the ocean and gardens. The kitchen is even stocked with numerous spices and nice dishes and glassware. There are only a handful of condos in this building, and some are full-time residents. I like to vacation in peace and privacy, and this location afforded me that. The owner offers a lot of pre-travel information via email. It may seem overwhelming but read it before you go. It saves you time and money. Akumal is a great little town with a variety of restaurants. The area diving (reef and caves) is spectacular. I am an adult female, traveled by myself to Cancun, rented a car, and toured Akumal and Tulum. Used common sense and had zero safety concerns.

  For our first visit to the Yucatan, we decided to stay in Akumal based on some recommendations from friends. We were very fortunate to find such a wonderful condo with a very helpful owner, Diana. Akumal is an easy place to fall in love with and we felt like the best decision we made was to stay there. Though the beaches are nicer at Akumal Bay, we preferred staying at a condo on Half-Moon Bay. It's less crowded and you literally walk out the door to a great snorkeling spot. We rented bikes at the condo for $5/day to make trips to town a little faster, but it also makes for a nice walk in the morning and evenings. It also helped that our favorite bar, La Buena Vida, was just down the road with great food and drinks. Down the road the other way was our favorite snorkeling spot at the lagoon. The condo itself was great for a bunch of reasons. We loved that it was on the first floor so it was easy access to the beaches and just for coming and going in general with neighbors on just one side. Everyone that worked there was very friendly and we had no problems at all, though there was someone on call 24hrs a day in case something happened. There is a full kitchen with everything one would want to prepare your own meals. We shopped at the big market in Tulum and made lots of great meals. It felt more like we were staying at someone's full-time residence than a typical condo or hotel room. Very homey and comfortable with all of the small touches like beach towels, coolers, and a breakdown of local restaurants and things to do. Plus free wi-fi was nice to have as well. We did rent a car, and that made everything on this trip much easier to be able to do what we wanted. We were a short, easy drive to the Mayan Ruins and cenotes. I would strongly recommend someone thinking about staying here to rent a car, and we had Diana help us get that figured out. Our trip was one of those trips where we were already planning our next stay at this condo. It would be a great place to go with 2 couples or with the family. We hope to make it back down as soon as we can take another vacation!

  We recently stayed in this condo as our 4th visit to Akumal. From previous trips to this area, we dreaded the beds as they are either on concrete platforms or hard as rocks. Mexican pillows are horrible, or very limited. We choose this condo for the advertised beds. They did not disappoint, in fact they were best setup we have experienced whilst on vacation. The owner, Diana, has done a great job in making this condo the perfect mix of Mexican and American comfort. The new kitchen, in particular, was really nice and well outfitted. We ended up cooking more than we had planned because it was so easy with everything being provided. All the extra details made this condo our favorite we have been to. We'll be back. Thanks Diana!

  My husband and I took our four kids here (13, 11, 9, 1) this year for vacation. We all had a fabulous time for sure! We had been to akumal before, snorkeled there while staying in Playa, and knew we would come back to stay. Our kids snorkeled a bit, found they didn't like it much, but still had a great time in the pool! There is plenty to do, right there and close by, but the town of akumal is still small, not terribly busy and friendly! Highly recommend. The property was awesome and we had some rental car issues while there and Enrique, the property manager, was so super helpful. So grateful for him! More Details ?

  Akumal and this condo was exactly what we needed for our multi-generational vacation. Akumal is very laid-back but still had enough to keep us all going. The kids didn't get bored, and the parents felt safe. Many opportunities for varied actitivites in the area, which we actually cut back on because we enjoyed our location so much. This condo is on the north end of Half Moon Bay so it is somewhat rocky here, but it is rocky everywhere in Akumal because the reef comes into the bay which meant fabulous snorkeling and calm water. The owner Diana described it as swimming in a giant aquarium, and she was right! We loved the condo itself, it was better than advertised. The beds were extremely comfortable. Everything was nicely appointed and well taken care of. When we cooked the few times, everything was there. The maid did a great job. Overall, everything in this condo was a step up from other places we have stayed at. We felt very spoiled and will be back.

  The unit far exceeded our expectations and provide our family of 4 everything we could have wanted in a rental unit. The books and DVD's as well a internet provided much information during brief periods of rain. The stain artistic glass in the shower and window transoms was nice as were all the personal touches, Mexican weavings, ceramics and photographs. It was easy to see the owner's passion for both sea life and plant life. Snorkeling in Half Moon Bay and Yal Kul was fantastic, my wife was over joyed to see three sea truttles and the incredible colors and variety of fish made me keep swimming for hours. The Akumal area is so peaceful and relaxing and feels incredibly safe as well. This condo made enjoying the area even easier. Thank you for sharing this special place that you have created and we would highly recommend it to our friends and anyone looking for a home away from home. We enjoyed trips to Ek Balam and Muyil on this trip having been to Chichen Itza, Coba and Tulum on previous visits. we enjoyed many of the recipes we found in the condo book (great margaritas and salsa) and were wonderfully relaxed and carefree for our entire vacation.

  This ten days in Akumal, was fun, relaxing, restful with as much added excitement as we wanted to include!! The most well-appointed condo we have stayed in for a while (last year, we went to Eleuthra), and we chose the downstairs unit so we could walk out and be 50 feet from the water to snorkel! We found the condo at Half-Moon Bay great for snorkeling, but bring water shoes as the water off the beach is a litle rocky. . The space in the unit was perfect for two couples, the screened porch great for rest and the ocean breeze was terrific! Grilled outside but found that stores do not know what "charcoal" is; we found one package to renew the supply at the condo. The little city has grown and although we did not enjoy the tour buses that are now coming, Akumal Bay was also great for snorkeling. I read 5 books while lounging at the biggest pool, including a lap pool, in Akumal!, a tranquil oasis of peace. We rented a car in Cancun, so we took a drive (all the way down to Punta Allen, took a pic for the Denver Post travel section! Plan to stop along the road to listen to the jungle and view some beautiful birds. A grilled fish dinner in Punta Allen was wondrous and the beaches along the way, not good to snorkel but so fun to surf and swim! We also went up and down the main road looking for "uh, mini-golfo" and everyone was so nice and sweet, but had no idea what we wanted! Also played a lot of Scrabble, we brought our own travel game. For fun and dancing, the sound system in condo is great too. Lots of DVD's were available in condo which were great to catch up on in eves.,after a day of fun and frolic! Buena Vida is great bar and restaurant just down the road, along with places in town for happy hours and shopping (their complex has certainly grown!) You can fish for half a day or so from several operators nearby, though April is said to be the beginning of 3 good months for fishing off shore. Phil did hook a bog sailfish but unfortunately he broke off the line!! Wonderful place to lose some time, (we could not find out about Payton Manning to Broncos, but neighbors informed us, they are friendly; he has a gallery in town with very interesting stories on sunken treasure near Akumal!) and to relax with friends. We have vacationed with another couple from MA for several years and one day, while at the pool, she looked up from her book and said "this is wonderful, isn't it" I had to agree. Thanks again to Diana for all her help.. Adios

  This was our second year staying at Seascape and can honestly say there are no negatives, only positives about this wonderfully appointed condo and its location. It has fabulous views, fabulous snorkeling and is in a quiet and relaxing complex with all the comforts of home. The great restaurants that are within walking distance are a huge bonus for the times when we didn’t feel like cooking at “home”. Akumal is centrally located along the Mayan Riviera, so all activities that you may want to take in are just a short drive; Mayan ruins – Tulum, Coba, Ek Balam; Cenote swims;(Casa Cenote with its restaurant and yummy Margarita’s was a wonderful way to spend an afternoon!) Sian Ka’an and any of the more commercial spots (Hidden Worlds, Xel-ha etc) are all nearby. A big thank you to Diana for allowing us to enjoy this amazing vacation home!
