This is my first time to a resort, and I have to say it set my expectations high for the next time I do. All of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful to any questions we had. And I was happy to not be at a "mega resort." Food was great, bartenders are excellent at making drinks, and we... More

I planned a quick diving getaway - leave LAX on a Thurday, fly back on Monday. ABR is an okay place to stay - can't say anything too terribly positive or negative about it but here are my general observations. Room - I didn't have any issues with the room, TV, or mattress. It always seemed humid and damp in... More

We were there for Cinco De Mayo 2012 liked it so retuned for this years Cinco De Mayo. My report based on remembering what you pay, this is no Luxury resort if that's what you want go pay over double, for someone to bring your drink, and feed you fancy looking food. Let's start with the Con's Mattress does not... More

My husband and I just got back from a 4 night stay at ABR. This all-inclusive resort is billed as a 3-star and we felt this was accurate. There are some things that make this hotel a great place to vacation, and some other things we wish they would change. PROs: BEACH, drinks, friendly staff, cleanliness, good food CONS: uncomfortable... More

This is our third trip to Akumal Beach Resort. We have enjoyed each stay more than the last. This year we took our two grown daughters and one of their boyfirends with us. We all found the resort to be comfortable, clean and friendly. We love the beach and palapas, having snorkelling right off the beach is great and having... More

This is the only long haul holiday destination and hotel we have ever returned to. Although we have been to many lovely places, there is always somewhere new to discover. However, it was since years since we were last at Akumal Beach Resort and we had such fond memories of our holiday that we decided to return. We asked for... More

Just returned from my fourth visit to Akumal Beach Resort. Love this small, all-inclusive. More like an "inn" than a "resort hotel". Has all the amenities, but on a smaller, more intimate scale. Want shrimp-laden ice-sculptured buffets, beach lounge drink service, hot tubs, all night disco's? Please go elsewhere. But, If you want delicious food that's healthy too, star-filled skies... More
