Great Place for a Family Retreat
What a great place! Top floor (3rd) with a great view of the beach, surf and palm trees blowing in the wind. Pleasantly furnished throughout, with plenty of space for a comfortable stay. There were seven of us gathered for a family retreat including a lively one year old. It was a perfect location for our gathering. Condo is very convenient to restaurants and other activities. We have rented different places in Akumal over the years. This has been my favorite.

Great place!
This is a great place to stay. The unit was very clean, amaizing view and spacious! The building is close to the lagoon and the public beach. Not to mention the beach were the building is nice also. Only thing, bring water shoes as coming into the building's beach has corals, but the water is amazing and you can even do some snorkeling. The staff is very nice and friendly and the communication was great :) Highly recommend it!

Great location on Half Moon Bay. Nicely kept beach. So as you can see the only thing keeping me away is the furniture.

Our Stay in Akumal at Playa Blanca Conds was a Merry Christmas!
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: Our family's 2023 Christmas vacation destination was a week at the Playa Blanca condos in Akumal. We relaxed the minute we arrived in the clean, spacious condo with a beautiful ocean view and direct access to the beach. Our concierge David helped us line up some great excursions and our maid Rami made sure we had everything we needed. Perfect location for a beach vacay with a friendly coffee shop and several good restaurants on the beach a short walk away. Highly recommend!

February Visit to Akumal
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Half Moon Bay is a beautiful location and Playa Blanca is a great condo. Waking up to a sunrise over the bay was a wonderful way to start the day. We enjoyed snorkeling, walks on the beach, and using bikes to explore Akumal Pueblo. There were plenty of restaurants within walking distance and we had some amazing meals. Plus, it was easy to catch a collectivo if we wanted to explore other towns.The staff at the condo were friendly and very helpful. We’ve stayed at this place twice now and would highly recommend it to others.

Beautiful, Safe and Wonderful!
We loved the feeling and relaxed vibe at Half Moon Bay in Akumal. We could walk to many great restaurants, a small market across the street and our favorite little cafe The Jungle Cafe!! We walked to the Yal Ku Lagoon for snorkeling and had such a relaxing time on the beach. There was some Grass/seaweed that kept blowing in on the beach and it was quite windy but most days we could still swim at the beach. A couple days the surf was just too rough. But we had a lovely time soaking up the sun and reading, relaxing, and swimming/snorkeling.

Beautiful condo with a breathtaking view of Half Moon Bay. The rooms were airy and the glass windows bringing in the sea breeze was so relaxing! I loved the security provided for all of the condominiums along our stretch. The locals were wonder as well! I, personally, apologize for it not being as clean as I would have liked, but the three others in our party needed to get back. There were tons of great reading options to choose from while lounging on the patio or down on the beach! Thank you again for being such wonderful hosts and we look forward to staying in the future!

Mixed experience - spotty communication and some issues with the property.
Stuff you want to know: huge grocery/ discount store 10 min north (Chedraui - Puerto Aventuras), bring lots of US cash since we never figured out the ATMs which take a huge ~10% fee; OXXO is like a 7/11 that's open 24 hours < 1 mile away and has beer; we enjoyed our meal at La Lunita but you need reservations; we enjoyed several meals especially breakfast at Turtle Bay

Beautiful place in Akumal!
LaSirena 13 is a beautiful retreat in Akumal. On the North end of Half Moon Bay, it is a quiet and serene condo, decorated in a traditional Mexican style. The private balcony off the master has a beautiful view of the courtyard (that is stunning). And the back-facing balcony provides beautiful views of the Bay all day long. A couple things to note: the living area seating is not very comfortable - the “sofas” are cement benches with thin cushions, so bring some blankets, and Unit 13 is a third floor walk-up, so be mindful if you have trouble with stairs. Finally, you can walk right out back to snorkel in the Bay, where we saw a variety of tropical fish and rays. Overall, Sirena 13 is a quaint retreat in an equally charming, friendly town. We’ll be back!

The condo was beautiful!!
The condo was beautiful, we had everything we needed with high end dishes and utensils. There were many restaurant within walking distance, we loved the Bakery Cafe! The beach was a little disappointing, we expected some rocks eventually leading to sand but the beaches were all rocks. It was difficult to get in the ocean when the water was rough, water shoes are a must!! We went able to snorkel off our beach until the last day, others said the snorkeling was good off shore. Yak-Kul was great for snorkeling. My first thought was that we’d probably never go back to Akumal but if the water would have been calm we’d have snorkeled off our beach. We loved Akumal! We were so glad to be away from all the tourists and tourism that other areas of Mexico has.
