The village of Akumal is the oldest SCUBA diving center on the Yucatan. It is also a prime location for deep-sea fishing. It is the antithesis to Cancun NO hustling-bustling, vendor-laden, tourist strip with all the ‘attractions’ of the Hotel Zone.
South Akumal (one and a half miles south of Akumal) has 25 homes (no hotels, condos, or time-shares) in a gated community rimming a very private, secluded, sandy-beach bay. There is a reef about 100 yards offshore, giving it a protected lagoon of water from four to ten feet deep and 100 yards wide for its own private aquarium (one almost always has the entire bay to themselves, when swimming). It is a laid-back, easy-going community of retirees and vacationers. It is for the family who wishes to escape, be reasonably secluded, and achieve near-total relaxation with relative privacy.
Our home is ocean-oriented. The upstairs master suite and main living areas have the ocean as the primary focal point from each of its rooms (every room other than the garden casita has a full view of the ocean and the reef). Sleep in air-conditioned comfort, or open the windows, hear the surf, and feel the gentle breeze assisted by the ceiling fans. For the hardy - try the hammocks.
This villa is Available for Year Round Rentals. Maid-service, change of linens, and all cleaning is included. Have Maggie fix your dinners for you (three are included - you cover the groceries), or dine at some of the finest, nearby restaurants on the Riviera Maya. Shopping for necessities, groceries, and the like are within one and a half miles from the house. |
