Owner's Profile

Year Purchased: 2005

Why the Owner Chose Akumal

Akumal hit me like magic the first time we visited. Over the years Bay of Akumal has gotten busier Half Moon Bay is still like a jewel! Even on the busiest days we noticed few people in the water. We have stayed during every season including holidays and have never seen rush for a beach chair or place to claim your own spot of sand. No boat traffic in this Bay either so you don't have to look over your shoulder every few minutes. It's amazing that 9 years after our first visit Half Moon Bay feels exactly the same as it did the first time we set foot in this Caribbean water.

The Unique Benefits of this Condominium

This North end of Half Moon Bay is so quiet. The huge garden and pool area act as a buffer between you and the little street noise on Half Moon Bay. Very very little walk through traffic on the beach. This close to the reef the snorkeling gets exciting almost right away. Very little wave action means it's easy to take the little ones in too--the water is shallow and calm on most days.

    • Whitney, Just wanted to say that everything was great! We couldn't have asked for more. And your extra pair of pink snorkel fins saved my trip!! The travel fins I bought were so freakin heavy(go figure)that they were just killing my legs. So I switched to the pink ones you had at the condo, and it was soooo much better. I can't believe I was so worried about snorkeling HMB...it really wasn't that difficult. Maybe if you have never snorkeled, it might take a little getting used to as you do have to sorta watch yourself in certain areas to avoid being pushed into coral. But we were just fine...and simply LOVED it!! It was breathtaking! We did feel the rip current a few times...but simply swam parallel to the beach to get out of it. The water clarity was amazing...even when it was sorta choppy. The only thing we missed out on was going right out to the outer reef...I was too chicken...lol. That's the kinda stuff I have to work up to. Maybe next time. We were happy as clams with just going straight out or to the right. Bryan is STILL grinning about seeing the octopus!! Your place is really something special...it felt like home. Every morning I was torn between sipping my coffee on the front or master bedroom balcony! Hmmm...spectacular view of HMB...or absolutely lovely view of the gardens and mangrove and more ocean?? Life was tough...lol. And to wake up and see that view of HMB from the bed(or shower for that matter) put a smile on my face every morning. And I love how you decorated! So warm and colorful. The few condos we have rented on previous vacations seemed so outdated and generic(kinda 1980's Florida decor with bad wall pictures and WAY too much wicker...lol). Yours actually felt like someones home with so many personal touches. It was obvious that you have put a lot of thought into the little things...extra snorkel stuff(thank you, thank you!), rafts, flashlights, candles everywhere, fish I.D. books, and so on. Some days we felt like the complex rebels...haha...as we tend to come a go a lot and stay out kinda late. We did our very best to tip-toe through the complex at night so as to not disturb anyone. It truly is a serene and peaceful place. We almost didn't know how to handle having the beach area COMPLETELY to ourselves...lol. Only one time was there anyone else out there while we were. And that consisted of one other group of people! gotta love off-season. Again, thank you. Your place was just the peace and relaxation we were looking for(and so needed) out of this trip. Mil Gracias!

      Whitney, This trip has been a blast! Thank you so much for everything you have done. The condo is georgous and comfortable and all the little amenities (like the books that we could look up the fish we have been seeing) added so much! Thanks for providing the BBQ, too. Your recommendations on what to do and where to go made us feel a little less "gringo" and a little more like seasoned travelers (but I don't think we fooled the locals at all).

    • Wow! Even my very hard-to-please husband said this was the best vacation we have ever been on. The snorkeling out the back door is awesome and the view from the living room and balcony is impossible to beat. Yal Ku was only a 5 minute walk and Akumal’s restaurants and night life only a 5 minute drive away. With the WiFi, my husband did not get behind at work, and with satellite TV, the kids didn’t have to miss their favorite shows. What more could we ask for? The little convenience store next to the office even had everything we needed to cook our first breakfast, and was reasonably priced, until we could go shop for food and libations for the rest of the week. I enjoyed cooking, especially since I didn’t have to do any dishes! It was a perfect week….and we WILL be back!

    • November 15, 2006 hi, whitney, yes..we had a great time. but we both had to walk right back into business trips on the back end..that was a drag. the three days went by super fast. the maids were great. everything was fully stocked and fabulous. everytime we looked for something, it was there. we saw a turtle the first day in...and spent quite a bit of time at the lagoon. the only surprise was when we went to stock up the fridge the day we got in and found out they have some rule about not selling packaqe beer after 2 p.m on sundays. we ended up driving to tulum for dinner and got our supplies there... i am sure we are going to have people interested in booking more days there next year. thanks for everything, marcy m

      Whitney, We had a great time. Sorry this is so late in coming. Everyone was great, especially Lupe. Your place is gorgeous. We are recommending your place to anyone who is traveling in that direction. We didn't seem to get to as many places as we had planned, but that's because we were so happy where we were.
