We stayed for two weeks in condo 3 on the second floor (first floor if you're British). We couldn't get enough of the view through the palm trees and out to half Moon Bay. It's the first thing you see when you open the door. The condo was very well equipped and the maid service was almost embarrassingly thorough every... more

We stayed in a 3-bedroom condo for one night before checking into a rental home. It was on the 3rd floor which required some fortitude to get all the luggage up the stairs, but the view off of the balcony was worth the climb. The rooms were all very well kept, and I have to say it represented the best... more

Third time in Akumal, first time at the Vista del Mar. We stayed in studio condo #8. I thought it was a very good value for such a large room with a very large bathroom and balcony. The rooms seemed a little older but nicely maintained, with some wear and curtains that could use a good cleaning. With the Sat... more

Very nice

Room was basic, not very large, but clean. Very nice bathroom with a tiled shower with small window overlooking the beach. Nice little balcony with a small table and two chairs. Beach is narrow, and water rocky here - this area is more for snorkeling than for white sand beaches. Excellent price on the rooms. Several very good restaurants in... more

I was recently in Akumal for a wedding and stayed four nights in the Vista del Mar hotel. Rooms where comfortable with great views of Half Moon Bay and the reef in front-having a refridgerator, coffee maker and plates and utensils enabled one to have light breadfasts in the room while sitting on the balcony taking in the view. We... more

My husband and I recently stayed at the Vista Del Mar. We didn't want a big resort, just something quiet to relax and enjoy each others company. The VDM was exactly that. The price was reasonable, the staff friendly and the rooms were very clean. The rooms are not large, but do have a fridge and TV, not that we... more

We have stayed in Mexico for 16 years and this was first trip to Akumal. This hotel had no complaints at all from us. The room was comfortable, great view of the sea and an ample balcony. Maid anticipated our every need. Water was always in the room when we needed, plenty of towels, hot water always available. Front desk... more

We were expecting nice accomodations but this room was nicer than we expected. We were on the 2nd story which was more private than ground level. The ocean view and beach were spectacular. The room was a 2 bedroom condo. Very clean, well equipped kitchen, hammocks on the porch. All the restaurants in the area from the most simple to... more

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights during a 12 day trip in the Yucatan. We really liked the small community feel to Akumal and this hotel was in a good location. It is about .6 miles from the town of Akumal and about the same to walk to Yalku Lagoon. The beach in Akumal isn't as nice as... more
