Playa Blanca Unit 4 [1]
Beautiful, Comfy Condo
Reviewed on 2024-11-01 by Vanessa D. , Friendswood, TX United StatesWe thoroughly enoyed our stay! The condo was very well equipped with everything that we needed to enjoy our week. There were a few hiccups, which were handled quickly & kindly. Juan & all of the ladies we communicated with were very friendly & attentive. The beds were comfy, the view is amazing (sans storm), the location is perfect.

Reviewed on 2024-03-30 by Darcel B. , Painter, VA United StatesWe had not visited since 2003 and was happy to see that Half Moon Bay had not changed as much as other places had, it was still pristene with a quite tranquility that we were hoping for. Half Moon Bay still has a very healthy reef to snorkel both north and south sides of the bay. The condo building’s outside gardens were beautifully manicured and our daily maid service was welcomed and appreciated. The large bedroom with king bed does need a new ceiling fan, only thing that didn’t work. All A/C units worked fine. We enjoyed swimming at Yal Ku lagoon.
The property was well maintained and was just like the photos online. Appliances were updated and worked.<br/>We had not visited since 2003 and was happy to see that Half Moon Bay had not changed as much as other places had, it was still pristene with a quite tranquility that we were hoping for.

A little piece of paradise.
Reviewed on 2024-02-20 by Shannon E. , Menomonie, WI United StatesThe condo was an excellent choice. The sunrises were beautiful, and the location was close enough for us to do everything we wanted to do. It had all the amenities of home. The Master Bedroom and shower were amazing. We enjoyed our 8 nights here. The only improvement I could suggest is to fix the stove and oven. The burners did not burn hot, and took a long time to heat up a pan, and the oven would not come up to temperature.

Easy Breezy We still <3 Akumal!
Reviewed on 2023-05-13 by , United States4th visit always so relaxing and as we have gotten to know the area better and better we are still finding amazing things to do. We chose this condo thinking it would be clean comfortable and well priced. It was all that more. Akumal Direct was great and the condo had little touches which made us feel like the owner cared about their guests. We will for sure be back! Super comfy and attention to detail. Of course even w a bit of sargasso view was fantastic!

Sargasso Sea
Reviewed on 2023-03-02 by , Kamloops , BC CABeautiful condo on Half Moon Bay,Akumal, Mexico. Early arrival of Sargassum Seaweed (out of anyone’s control) totally effected our ability to enjoy the beach and water. Condo owners do not have the manpower or ability to clean the sargasso from the beach leaving the beach unusable. The decaying seaweed smelled really bad. The stove/oven in this unit was not working properly and would not reach a safe cooking temperature making cooking our own meals very difficult. The stove was reported but repairs were not done during our 3 week stay. The master bedroom’s bifold doors leading to the living room resulted in no sound barrier at all which made it impossible to sleep if anyone else was in the living room watching tv or talking. The view from the condo was phenomenal despite the sargasso sea. The community of Half Moon Bay was very welcoming and friendly. The local restaurants were great and grocery delivery was available. (Groceries were much higher priced than we expected for Mexico). Unfortunately... without the use of the local beaches this condo is overpriced when compared to other condos in the area. Potential renters should be advised of the sargassum issues so they can make an informed decision. We will be looking to vacation on the Pacific Coast of Mexico next year.
Beautiful, quiet and great location

Fantastic condo
Reviewed on 2023-02-01 by , North Vancouver, BC CanadaPerfect location right on the beach with the best equipped kitchen and thoughtful amenities I’ve ever had in a rental. For people who love to cook there was nothing missing - great knives, blenders, pans, quality dish ware, even a few starter spices and the reverse osmosis water is a great eco feature to eliminate plastic bottles. Staff were attentive and responded immediately when AC in the back bedroom broke & they brought in a new unit and repaired it within hours. A great unit to rent & enjoy a Mexican getaway.

Lovely Stay on Half Moon Bay
Reviewed on 2022-12-05 by , Bowen Island, BC CAWe had a lovely nine days in Playa Blanca #4 on Half Moon Bay. This was our fourth trip to Akumal, and we thoroughy enjoyed this apartment. Very comfortable and really well-equipped. The perfect location, steps from the beach, and between the two restaurants. It's an easy walk to into Akumal. No complaints at all.
