Affordable, clean, safe, family run hotel on Akumal Bay. Get away from the all inclusive, Miami feel of Cancun and Playa del Carmen. Happy hour get together every day to meet different people. Good food and there is entertainment a couple of times a week. A couple of off property restaurants are very good. Snorkel with turtles, please not touch... More

We stayed at the Hotel Akumal Caribe for a week in November 2011. We were in a third floor kitchenette room, we had a king bed and had a rollaway brought in for our 10yo son. The rooms aren't large, so it was a little tight, but we managed (we weren't in the room that much anyway). Loved having the... More

My husband and I brought our daughter and 6 year-old grandson to Akumal Bay for 8 days over the holiday break. It was my husband's and my third trip to the Yucatan Peninsula in 3 years. In the past we've stayed just outside of Tulum at La Selva Mariposa, a favorite of ours; however, with family joining us this time... More

My husband and I and another couple each stayed in a garden bungalow at Hotel Akumal Caribe in April 2010. If you like to escape the big box all inclusives that swarm along the Yucatan beaches, but still like to be near some restaurants, shops, etc, this peaceful, friendly place on Akumal Bay is for you. The hotel abuts the... More

If you're looking for an all-inclusive mega-resort this is NOT the place. If you're looking for a small, clean, friendly hotel in a lovely location you've found it here! Reservations are handled efficiently by a US-based staff. I did everything via email and Paypal for an easy, seamless transaction. This hotel is perfectly located for access to snorkeling in Akumal... More

Should have written this ages ago. We were looking for a laid back place where we could snorkel right off the beach and found this hotel. Nothing fancy, but well kept. Beds could be a bit more comfortable. We had a room with a kitchenette on the ground floor which I wouldn't recommend. I'm sure someone could cook in it... More

So understand that I am a bit biased about this place. But who wouldn't be. If you stay here once you will feel at home, if you stay here more it is home! The location is great with Akumal Beach right there, it has a lovely pool. You can choose from hotel rooms on the beach or garden setting bungalows.... More

Full disclosure....I haven't stayed at this hotel. However, my best friend and his most excellent girl got married there recently, and since I couldn't make it, I wanted to have a bottle of champagne delivered to them. Both the reservations office in El Paso and the owner of the hotel, Laura, went way out of their way to accommodate the... More

I was so pleased that we made this our choice. The bungalow we rented was footsteps from beautiful natural beach, and was spotless and comfortable (not that we stayed in it very much). The atmosphere is that of a laid back little village (which it is) and there's no hurry to attend events or tours or whatever other trappings come... More
