Imagine - all you can eat and drink, white sand beach, large pool, snorkeling with giant sea turtles, entertainment, and handicrafts (but no beach peddlers) all for under $300/night for a family of four . . . Too good to be true? Not at the Akumal Beach Resort (ABR)! We stayed in a ''superior'' room in building 6 at the... more

My husband and I and another couple just returned home from our second stay at ABR. The worst part of the trip was we had to leave. I'll be the first to admit the ABR is not for everyone but for us it was perfect. The beach is one of the nicest I've been to and the snorkelling was great.... more

Returned from Akumal Beach on April 7/ 2008. We were there for 2 weeks. We stayed in the older section and our room was fine. It was a basic room but always clean. Our house keeping lady, Candy was the best. We do not need alot in our room as long as it is clean. Who spends that much time... more

My husband and I brought our 17 year old daughter and her 17-year old girlfriend to ABR April 15-20th and we just loved the place. We're very laid back and ABR was perfect for us. What everyone said about a 3 star resort on a 5 star beach is absolutely true. The resort is beautiful. Loved all the wood and... more

My family traveled back to Akumal Beach Resort for spring break this year after falling in love with it last year. I still love the place but couldn't help noticing a few things that should be addressed so that this lovely resort doesn't fall into greater dsisrepair. Nearly 1/2 of the lounge chairs on the beach and by the pool... more

My family and I got back from Akumal a few weeks back and I promised myself I would leave a review since I found so many others helpful before we left. A little background, we are Texan's living in Canada and were in desperate need of some warmth after our first winter here. I don't care for all inclusive vacations... more

My husband and I went to this resort for a week with another couple, after reading many of the reviews. We enjoy a resort off the beaten track, with character and a sense of culture. We found all this and more at the Akumal Beach Resort. We stayed in building #7, 2nd floor, and although the beach at the opposite... more

We spent a great week at the Akumal Beach Resort ( April 1st until the 8th 2008) "because of the snorkeling". Check- in was fast. Staff were nice to us. Superior Room was to expect for a 3.5 stars. No mini-fridge...didn't like that. Finding shade on the beach after 9am is a big "Dream On!". Guests are putting their towels... more

Water would shut off completely during EVERY shower - Monica (Guest Relations) stated that this was not a reason to move us to another hotel - no more rooms left at ABR...long and short - we took our showers outside by the pool (this shower had water) Requested 2 handicap access rooms - were given 2 rooms on the second... more

Let me just start off by saying that it is the best snorkeling ever! My husband and I saw all kinds of fish, including several barracuda every time we went out, turtles, and sting rays. The clarity of the water was good but not crystal. The hotel is definitley a 3 star but I knew that. The food at the... more
