We booked our stay through locogringo.com. Awesome service and website. They provided us with transfer to the hotel so it made things easy. The hotel was nice-not luxurious, but clean, with clean rooms and bathrooms. We had a beachfront room with a nice view on the second floor. Be careful not to lock yourself out on your balcony! Food was... more

I just returned form the Akumal Beach Resort and I must say I was disappointed. I was well aware that this was a 3 star resort prior to booking but it was more like a 2 star resort. Rooms- Moldy and smelly. Very old. Beach- Beautiful, however, a women at the resort got stung by a sting ray even after... more

We had stayed at the ABR in May of 2007 and found everything just fine. I contacted them before our stay, the last week of April 2008, and requested the same room as 2007. We were celebrating our 20th anniversary. They gave us the same room, 646, along with fresh fruits and an appreciation note for staying a second time... more

How wonderful to be back at the ABR 6/28 - 7/6/08). Our last visit was in 2006. We met friends from upstate New York (3rd timers) and from New Hampshire (2nd timers). First things first: The main bar was nearly under roof by the time we left. Amazing that it was all done by manpower. No heavy machinery. They would... more

Four families with a total of 8 teenagers and 8 adults booked this resort last August, but Hurricane Dean blew away those plans and we re-booked for this past June. We were a little concerned about the loss of some public rooms due to the fire in the main restaurant and lobby a few months ago, but many of the... more

The four of us (my wife, myself and our best friends) arrived in Cancun on 6/7 and the bus was waiting to take us to the Akumal Beach Resort. It took about 1:45 min. but was pleasant. A great deal of the reception, main dining hall, bar and gift shop had burned in late April so we were a little... more

This was our 4th visit to this resort. unfortunately, we found out about the fire that destroyed the main restaurant, the lobby, the main bar, gift shop, and public seating areas only two days before we went. If we had been told about the fire when it happened on April 28, we would have tried to reschedule to another hotel.... more

Great place to stay - definitely not "uppity" so if you are looking for that type of place do not stay here. The rooms have a great view of the ocean, the beach is beautiful! Everyone who worked there was very friendly. The tips are included and I read some reviews that said to tip more to get better service... more
