KINDLY NOTE: South winds may bring Sargasso Seaweed to some beaches throughout the Caribbean, including the Rivera Maya. While the situation is hard to predict for each specific week and area, we would like you to be aware as there is the potential to impact the beach and water entry.

The Riviera Maya is full of natural beauty, places to explore and opportunities for outdoor activities. We have a great list of activities and adventures completely unaffected by the arrival of sargasso that we would love to share with you. There is so much to see and do in this special place, we know that you will have an amazing and memorable vacation!

This condo was beautiful with a clean boho vibe. Augustin at the front desk was super helpful with local information, bike and golf cart rental and booking a turtle tour with a guide that took just my family of four out. The area felt super safe and we were comfortable walking to some local restaurants and shops. We ate at Buena Vida and Jungle Cafe several times each and both were delicious. Each was about a Three minute walk away. We snorkled right off the beach and saw a huge variety of fish. The was some seaweed but it didn’t ruin it. We took the golf cart to Yal-Ku and saw even more fish. We rode it to the other end and ate at La Cueva del Pescador. This meal was also delicious and best bang for your buck! Just over $50 for four lunches, guac, two sodas, a beer and a margarita. My very favorite part though was the balcony overlooking the Caribbean! The property is so close to the water line that the sea is right there with the breeze and sound of the waves. We started and ended every day in the most relaxing spot. We even watched sting rays swimming past. If you are not sure about booking I’d say go for it and use the concierge service to book your transfer to and from the airport.

Akumal adventure

What an amazing vacation. The condo has beautiful views, many balconies, an is well stocked with basics without being cluttered. It is about a mile to town for shopping, the Akumal general store has groceries, and the condo complex (14units) has bikes to rent and will help to plan adventures around Akumal if wanted

The helpful communication prior to arrival made us feel confident knowing that everything would be in order with our late arrival. The condo was beautiful and spacious, clean, and the staff were attentive and helpful. Would not hesitate to book here again.

Amazing Location with Beautiful Views

Everything about this vacation was perfect. The condo was very well done and the view was perfect. Super great neighborhood with walking distance to a fantastic restaurant. It is a 4 floor walk up, so be prepared if you are not used to that. But the onsite manager carried up and down all of our giant suitcases. We will be back, for sure!

The condo was fully equipped with everything needed for a family to stay for many days and enjoy home cooking when it is wanted. The beach is rocky so take water shoes so you can walk into the ocean. Playa Caribe is close to many restaurants. Highly Recommend!!

I did notice that the condo was much better than the pictures on the booking site showed. I found out that the owners have a golf cart that can be rented. We just had to talk to the office manager. He was easy to work with and the golf cart looks almost brand new.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our first time renting a condo with our kids. We usually stay at all inclusive resorts for the convenience when we are with our kids but we wanted to try something new so we could do more adventures. This condo was perfect! It is spacious, clean, the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need, and the view is unbelievable. There were great restaurant options that everyone in our family enjoyed. We will definitely be back when the Sargasso season is over to enjoy the beachfront.

Lovely beach condo in Half Moon Bsyay. It was very comfortable and well maintained.

The condo has a stunning view of Half Moon Bay. Unfortunately the seaweed came in during the middle of our stay making the water and beach very unpleasant. The condo is on the top floor and there is no elevator. There are 66 steps to climb. There are no bathrooms at the pool or beach. The staff was amazing. The condo was well decorated and the beds were very comfortable. The pool was not heated and the filtration was not working. The beach is a coral beach so bring your reef shoes.

peaceful retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We appreciated the location on quiet Half Moon Bay, the pool and beach lounge chairs, gracious staff and very well equipped kitchen. This was the nicest vacation rental we've experienced anywhere. In the future we would bring more pesos for tips, bike rentals and restaurants that take cash only. The ATM's nearby don't work. If you can stop for groceries at the Chedraui supermarket on the way from the airport, a car is not necessary in Akumal, the airport transfer booked thru Akumal Direct worked very well. We enjoyed visiting the ruins in Tulum (requires a car or driver), walking or biking to the Akumal Bay beach and nearby restaurants, especially Imelda's Ecococina.

Playa Caribe #10

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed on Half Moon Bay over 20 times over the years. The Playa Caribe is a nice spot and a nice building. We do not think that the pool was getting proper filtration and could not detect the pump ever operating during the 13 days of our trip. We brought this up to the host and he said that a person came first thing in the morning and ran the pump and cleaned the pool but we found that not to be the case. Unfortunately, the seaweed/sargasso problem is not going away. This is the worst we have ever seen it and nothing was being done by Playa Caribe despite several other properties at least making an effort to remove. This made the beach unbearable and the pool area unpleasant due to the sargasso smell. We were able to enter the bay at the far north and snorkel over five times. We saw the most sealife ever! Even though the weather wasn't the greatest we made the most of it and enjoyed our stay. A more efficient seaweed removal process needs to be put in place coordinated by all property groups to improve the experience since the seaweed is here to stay, it appears. Word is that a barrier is being installed soon across the bay. Even if this is somewhat successful, seaweed removal will be necessary. Thank you!

First time in Yucatán.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was great. Had everything we expected and more. It was close to Buena Vida restaurant for dinner out. The kitchen had all we needed for those days we decided to eat in. Which is great when traveling with young kids, we eat in more than out. The view was breathing taking. From the moment we stepped of the airplane, the people were friendly, helpful, and wonderful. I was really worried because we had some delays and were not going to arrive to the condo by 5 pm. I tried calling all the numbers I had but was only able to leave messages. I was really worried, but the staff at the condo left a note on the door with instructions and where our room key was located. During our stay the staff was great. Always willing to help and answers questions. The only thing reason I gave a four stars, was the need of an elevator. Our room was top floor but no elevator, but that was an oversight on our part. Had we known before we probably would not have rented the room. One recommendation I would make, assigning a golf cart to each room would be great. The condos are located almost in the middle of the hotel area, about 20-25 minutes walking distance to the lagoon (north of us) and the beach town (south). The walk in either direction is okay in the morning but by the afternoon it was difficult. The site has some carts but they need to be reserved days before. We used a great deal of taxis but after a while the cost adds up. Overall, the stay was amazing. Would definitely recommend the rental but will warn about the no elevator and walking.
