Akumal Breakers - South Akumal Beach

Be sure to check out our videos on iLoveAkumal.com.

Akumal Breakers is a magical 5 bedroom, 4 ½ bath beachfront villa located in South Akumal, Mexico, which is the jewel of the Riviera Maya. South Akumal is located 1 hour south of the Cancun Airport between Playa del Carmen and Tulum. Besides having one of the best beaches in the area, the quiet neighborhood also has 24 hour security and a gated entrance.Akumal Breakers has one of the best beach locations in all of S. Akumal. The white sandy beach is located only 25 steps from the villa and is great for outdoor games, building sand castles or just chilling out all day and listening to the waves hit the breakers. The villa also features a large pool, plenty of beach chairs, two stand up paddle boards and two kayaks with an excellent entry into the Caribbean.If your kids want to enjoy a "real pool", then Akumal Breakers is the perfect place. The villa also has a private hot and cold outdoor shower which is a great way to clean up the children after the beach. The adults love it too!The villa is as stunning as its location on the beach. The entire villa exterior is covered with hand cut 'Piedra Maya Vista' stone making this one of the most unique and distinguished beach front properties in the area. All of the floors are made of Terracotta tile accented with Mayan wood. The villa also has a unique collection of Mexican artwork and craftsmanship including paintings, wood carvings and Onyx lamps.Akumal Breakers has a smooth sloping walkway around the side of the villa so that people with walking disabilities don’t have to climb steps to enter the living area or the beach bedroom. Although the villa is not officially ADA approved, a wheelchair can pass from the street to the living room and the beach bedroom via a gradually sloped concrete pathway.Two of the four bedrooms are considered private suites and are located on the second level. The 'North Suite' has a king size bed, private ocean front balcony, private bath and a small safe in the closet. The 'South Suite' has a king size bed, private ocean front balcony and a private bath. The "South Suite" is oversized and provides ample space for a crib or an additional Aero Bed (both are available).On the main floor, you will find the 'Beach Room' which has a king size bed overlooking the pool and the beach. There is also a large safe in the closet. The adjacent 'Garden Room' is great for children. It has two full size beds. The Beach and Garden rooms share a large bathroom. There is an exterior studio apartment with a queen bed, smart tv, and bathroom.The villa has an on-site staff that keeps the interior and exterior in perfect shape. They can also prepare your meals for a fee and they are licensed massage therapists.

We require a signed agreement and a $500 refundable damage deposit.

Relaxing and beautiful Christmas vacation with family
My extended family of 11 spent Christmas at Akumal. We were greeted by Mirna and Luis and they were perfect hosts. They kept care of the place, very helpful and cooked a couple of meals which I would highly recommend to take advantage! If anything I should have done a few more. The home and property was beautiful and more spacious than I expected. The patio, pool, seating area under the palm trees and beach were perfect. Plenty of seating anywhere you wanted to be on the property inside and outside. 2 hammocks kids loved to lay in. Upper deck was perfect to stretch and have coffee. We had more than enough room for all of us to have beds which were very comfortable. We also had massages right there on the beach which was another perk with both being massage therapist. I booked one for the first morning. We also felt completely safe. We walked to restaurants close by. The only recommendation I would have is to get at least one rental car to be able to make short trips. This was the recommendation also by the property manager. We didn’t want to drive and opted for taxi. We had grandparents with us who couldn’t walk the beach and required transportation short distance. We did get a great service for our group through Miguel all week and was reliable. Just required planning in advance to have a shuttle for 11. Snorkeling was also really good. All in all would highly recommend and would definitely go back!

Perfecto!
We really enjoyed our stay! The area felt VERY safe (security was unobtrusively patrolling the beach and the guards at the gate were very attentive) and we really enjoyed hanging out on the property- both the shaded areas and sunny areas! Buena Vida (a short drive) and Jungle Fish (walking distance for lunch or early dinner) were our favorite restaurants. The beach area in front of the house was the prettiest and had the least amount of seaweed. Several guests from nearby hotels would walk over and set up on the beach in front of the house, so be sure to bring the lounge chairs down to the beach early in the morning to "reserve" your space. Would definitely rent this house again!

Amazing stay
Villa is beautiful and exactly as pictured and described. Beachfront perfect for relaxing. Loved using the paddle boards and kayaks. Bring snorkel gear, see tons of fish and sting rays. Water shoes are a must, the water entry is very rocky/coral. If you want a really hot shower, use the outdoor. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Rooms very spacious. Kitchen had everything we needed for food and cocktail prep. All showers had shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel dispensers. Would love to return!

Amazing stay in Akumal!
Our family had an amazing stay at Akumal Breakers over New Year’s! The home is in safe neighborhood (with a gate guard) right on the beach! Our family all had plenty of room to spread out and enjoyed the pool and playing in the ocean just a few steps away. The house has a couple paddle boards and kayaks to use and the coral reef was a great place to snorkel! Definitely suggest bringing water socks to make walking out in the ocean easier. We grabbed a couple masks in town, didn’t need flippers. Tulum was about 20 min away. We spent a day having lunch there and visiting a few of the cenotes, highly recommend. I can’t say enough about Lunda, the property manager! She was so organized and helpful, sending us lots of info about the property, things to do, and helpful hints for traveling to the area. She really went above and beyond to make the trip for our family special! The caretakers, Luis and Mirna, were there daily to clean and prepare some meals. We were told they give amazing massages but our trip was cut short and we didn’t have the time to enjoy. Next visit! I would highly recommend this property for a family. Great place to play and relax in the sun while having quiet and privacy away from town!

Perfect slice of Paradise
The property was perfect for our group of 9 (two families - 4 adults, 3 teens, and 2 pre-teens). Spacious and lovely, with beautiful mosaic windows, light and bright, and plenty of room for all to spread out, though we spent most of our time outdoors adventuring. We snorkeled right outside in the bay and took advantage of kayaks and paddleboards. Hammacks outside were perfect for midday naps. Morning coffee among the palm trees followed by cocktails in the afternoon. Pool was refreshing and a welcome alternative to the sea. Everyone loved the outdoor shower and the BBQ outside stole the chef's hearts of our husbands. Every day they talked about what to grill next! Mirna and Luis are amazing - my son wanted to try one of the coconuts he found in the yard and Luis opened it for him. We requested Mirna and Luis to make a dinner meal for us and they overdelivered -- we still talk about her cooking. We also asked for massages on the beach and it was an incredible experience. Lunda was very communicative as well -- we had a phone call prior to our arrival and she provided great info about the property and surrounding areas. She also let us construction started on the road to the airport and it was very welcome information -- It took us 2 and a half hours to get to the rental car drop off! Plenty of time thanks to Lunda's insight and communication with us. Lastly, one of our favorite features of this property, of course, are turtle sightings. We loved checking out the turtle trails in the morning and "patrolling" the beach in the evenings. I thought about a pros/cons list, but there aren't any cons (other than no amount of time is going to be enough), so here is the list of my rec's/Do's/tips: - Outdoor shower! - Proximity to points of interests -- cenotes, Tulum, Akumal Pueblo/beach, Cedraui, PDC... - Walking the beach trail south (15 min), check out the Beached Bikini Bar (cash only) - Walking the beach trail north to Lol-Ha and Akumal beach, - getting ice cream at Turtle Bay Bakery, shopping at the artisans' co-op (45 min) - Dining at La Buena Vida, La Cueva, and Taverna - Bring water shoes - the trail is rocky and the beach out front of the house has rocks and coral (we had water shoes/socks and Crocs) - Bug spray, sunscreen and hats -- musts! - Remove half of what you put in your suitcase -- you won't it -- most of our time was spent in suitsuits We had a wonderful time, thanks Lunda, Mirna and Luis!

Wonderful family vacation at Akumal Breakers
We had a wonderful stay at Akumal Breakers. The home was very comfortable with ample space for our family of 8. It was great to be right on the beach, tucked away in a small community. The home is centrally located where we could easily get to Tulum, Playa Del Carmen, and not too far from the Cancun airport. The hosts were very responsive, had great communication, and went above and beyond to support our stay. The staff Luis and Myrna had impecable customer service, and went the the extra mile on many occassions. We had Myrna cook for us a couple of nights, and the meals were delicious. My only regret is not to have taken a few more days at the home to wind down and enjoy all that the home had to offer.

Best Family Holiday Ever
Our family of 7 (including 2 aged 90+) enjoyed a beautiful Christmas and New Years at Akumal Breakers. The home is comfortable, spacious, and perfectly appointed. Everything you might want is at your fingertips. The location is a dream, so beautiful and relaxing. The beach out our back door, the kayaks, stand up paddle boards, ample lounge chairs and hammocks with a view! Even a top deck for those who wanted to sunbathe with more intensity. The staff, Mirna & Luis were accommodating and kind. We ate every meal at home and asked Mirna to “surprise us”. She did a fantastic job and my 90 year old Mother discovered her love of Mexican cuisine (Mirna’s cuisine!). Luis kept the grounds lovely and his evening cocktails were well received. A warm smile always greeting us. It was a beautiful, magical vacation. We will all cherish the warmth & hospitality we enjoyed at Akumal Breakers. Fondly, The Miller Family

Amazing family trip!
I kept trying to book in Tulum for our family/friends fall break and couldn’t find a place with enough room and on the beach. Akumal Breakers was the perfect place for us! It was quiet, laid back, close to many restaurants in Akumal and a short drive to Tulum, the Mayan Ruins Coba, so may Cenotes and so many options for day trips! I think the absolute highlight was watching a baby sea turtle that hatched in the back yard, hustle to the ocean to be with its family. It was a special trip. The house is great, plenty of room for everyone, 7 of us. We snorkeled every day right in the reef behind the house, it was amazing, so many tropical fish, muy tranquil! Myrna and Luiz take excellent care of the house and made some of the best dinners we had in Mexico!

Great Group Getaway!
Akumal Breakers is a fabulous house in a beautiful location. The house was perfect for our two families and with both the beach and pool, offered lots to do as well as plenty of space to spread out and relax. It was an ideal jumping off point for local activities, but we didn't need to leave the property to enjoy the area. The beach out front had the best snorkeling we've experienced. And we were amazed by the nesting turtles nightly! The owner was appreciably communicative and informative, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I highly recommend a vacation at Akumal Breakers!

Perfect Beach House
Akumal Breakers is a perfect place for a family beach vacation in Mexico. The setting is beautiful. The location is convenient to the small town of Akumal and close to the bustling town of Tulum. The home is very well appointed and furnished and has all the conveniences of home. There are a lot of places to sit and read, by the pool or the ocean and, with reef shoes, you can snorkel in relatively clear water with a fair amount of coral and tropical fish. Our family of five had a relaxing vacation and would return.

Fantastic
We stayed 6 nights Jan 2019. It was perfect. We absolutely loved Mirna and Luis. They are friendly and so helpful, but unobtrusive as well. Mirna made Pork Pibil for us and it was so yummy! We wished we had her cook again for us! We had 2 massages at the same time on the beach and we felt spoiled. They went out of their way to accommodate us on that. The house is very spacious and beautiful. Beds comfy. Hot water in all the showers! We travel a lot down there so that is not always the case. Everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. We didn’t use the pool as the weather was not hot enough and pool is not heated. But all you need is the ocean😄 the snorkeling was really fantastic right off the beach. The stars from the roof top are mind blowing. This location is very convenient for all the activities in Quintana Roo. Restaurant recommendations where great. Definitely recommend Akumal Breakers.

The perfect house to experience the Mexican Riviera,
Akumal Breakers was the perfect fit for three couples and two children. What a beautiful house and grounds. If we weren’t snorkeling directly off the beach, we were playing in the pool. Many good restaurants in the area, including La Lunita in Notrh Akumal and Cetli in Tulum. My grandchildren were so excited when the green sea turtles hatched under the moonlight...a magical experience. We were able to go on a nature tour by boat in the Sian Kaan Biosphere...I recommend Osprey Tours. Also, flyfished for bonefish in the same area. Mirna and Luis are the kind husband/wife team that meticulously cleaned up after we made mess. They were very accommodating, but you hardly knew they were there. Everyone in our party was sorry to leave. We had a magical vacation!

It was very beautiful and comfortable. We loved our stay so much that we stayed another week!
The property was well kept, the location is amazing. Close to town, Very safe, and comfortable. We were fortunate to see turtles lay eggs and eggs hatch. Luis and Mirna are wonderful and are great cooks! We loved all the meals they prepared, especially the pork chops. Mirna and Luis were close enough if we needed help, but far enough to feel privacy. The house has all you need for a comfortable stay. Kitchen is equipped with all cooking utensils (pots and pans, etc.) We got in a bind one night as we forgot the house keys inside the house and it was Luis and Mirna’s day off, the owners were very helpful and friendly, made it so easy for us to get back in the house. We absolutely recommend this house, the pool is nice, the views are amazing and the house is super comfortable! Definitely going back!

Great home for a truly relaxing vacation
We stayed here for 5 days in March...4 adults and 3 kids. The house was really great and in a great location. It was such a nice, quiet setting in Akumal Sur....away from the more crowded beaches and condo complexes in Akumal but definitely close enough to walk...especially if you want to head down to see the turtles. Another big difference vs. the main beach in Akumal was the amount of seaweed. There was very little seaweed accumulation on the beach in front of the house....whereas in Akumal, there were crews of people working each day to take it away in wheelbarrows. The drive to Tulum is no more than 20 minutes, so very convenient if you want to do a 1/2 day trip and not lose a full day to visit. We actually spent one day visiting Tulum, Solomon Bay (for lunch) and a cenote (Sac Actun) all in one day. There are several cenotes close to Akumal. We loved the fact that we could snorkel right from the home’s beachfront. We also really enjoyed use of the kayaks and paddle boards. We ate 3 times away from the house (Taverna Akumal once and La Buena Vida twice) and would highly recommend both locations. We would also highly recommend asking Mirna to cook a meal at least once. She cooked 2 nights for us...chicken and pork pibil one night and Chile rellenos the other night. The food was all delicious. Mirna and Luis are fantastic and were so helpful for any questions / needs we had, whether it be to get a taxi (to Tulum / airport), cleaning, cooking, etc. We would definitely recommend Akumal Breakers.
