The apartment was the perfect size. The views were amazing and the location very peaceful. We enjoyed cooking and just hanging out. The complex was pretty much empty when we went so it felt like we had the pool and beach to ourselves the whole time.

Cons: • The listing on Booking.com mentions front desk services, evening entertainment, a nightclub, a restaurant, and a convenience store on site, which are not actually available. This seems to be a case of Booking.com using generic or inaccurate descriptors, not the fault of the owner. Still, the listing should be corrected to reflect the true amenities.

A Perfect Beachfront Escape in Akumal – Truly a Hammock Heaven! Akumal has always been our favorite destination in the Riviera Maya, and our recent stay at Beachfront Hammock Heaven only reinforced that! Ideally situated about halfway between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, Akumal offers the perfect balance of beauty, tranquility, and accessibility. I highly recommend renting a car to make the most of all the nearby attractions. This was our first time staying at Beachfront Hammock Heaven, and it exceeded our expectations. The condo is exactly what my husband and I needed—peaceful, private, and stunningly beautiful. Pros: • A large, silky sand beach just steps away, complete with private loungers and a hammock—perfect for relaxing in the sun or shade. • Excellent snorkeling right off the beach with vibrant marine life. • Plenty of parking available, which is rare and much appreciated. • A spacious rooftop patio with comfortable loungers, couches, and a dining table—ideal for sunrise coffee or evening cocktails. • Close proximity to restaurants in Akumal Bay, giving us a great selection without needing to travel far. • A very comfortable king-size bed and a large, modern shower made the condo feel like a boutique hotel. • The balcony view is breathtaking, overlooking the beach and Caribbean Sea. We were even lucky enough to enjoy a full moon during our stay, from the hammock with the ocean breeze—unforgettable!

Our stay was excellent! We enjoyed the view from the balcany .The beach was not crowded and it was cleaned every day from seaweed. You can snorkel there as it has a variety of fish there. If you want a more quiet and relaxing place away from all the noise and people this is it. Free parking is available. All needed facilities are available in the kitchen to prepare something for you. Would recommend this apartment definitely.

This condo was absolutely the perfect place for me and my boyfriend to stay during Semana Santa. It was so wonderful to have the beach right there the whole time. We could fall asleep to the sound of ocean waves and anytime we wanted to spend time on the beach, we had a private palapa with comfortable chairs, a hammock and shade! The location was absolutely perfect and it was so easy to hop on the main road and go explore the cenotes in the area or drive into Akumal Pueblo or Akumal Playa for a great meal. There was also a great little restaurant a very short walking distance away right on the beach, which was lovely. Joan provided plenty of towels and we had everything that we needed in order to make some simple meals at the condo during our stay. Eating on the porch was wonderful, and always felt very private due to the landscaping and the design of the building. Even though it was Semana Santa and there is a hotel and hotel guests on the property, it felt very chill and calm. It was never noisy or super crowded at the beach or the pool. This location is convenient for accessing the more touristy areas nearby but does not itself feel touristy. Joan said that she spent several years to find the perfect spot in the Caribbean, and she really did find it. I would 100% stay here again.

Loved our time here... the apartment has everything you could possibly need and want, super comfortable bed and great kitchen and balcony 😍 host is wonderful. Didn't want to leave! Would definitely get a hire car next time as a bit remote from shops etc. Misael the massage therapist is an angel highly recommend, his card is on the fridge. Great value and I will miss waking up to the sound of waves. Thank you Joan

In a calm and quiet area with its private beach which makes it really enjoyable. Very Mexican athmosphere you have everything what you need in the house to feel like home. Joan was very helpful, even let us stay and check out later as our plane was leaving later in the afternoon.

The inconsistency of power was interesting, but did not take away from the property or stay. It was weather related and added to the experience.

Great location!

Aventuras Akumal is accessible for people like us who do not have a car and use public transportation. However the owner was not familiar with the public transportation options. We were able to figure things out by ourselves. We needed to get to Akumal from Cancún and we needed to stop for groceries on the way there. We figured it out in the end and had no issues. Take ADO bus to Playa, get groceries there, and then take either colectivo or taxi from Playa to Aventuras Akumal. If colectiva, ask to be dropped off at the puente peatonal so you may cross safely. From the puente, walk across the highway on the pedestrian footbridge and follow backwards to Aventuras Akumal. Condo is in the building at the end of road.

Perfect location, amazing view, fantastic beach, kitchen had everything we needed for a 4 day stay for 2 people. Bed is sooo comfortable! Front porch and back patio were great places to hang out. There are beach lounge chairs on the beach. Nice pool in front of the ocean. Owner has a book in the condo with detailed recommendations. To enjoy the fish swimming near the beach, bring water shoes and a snorkel set.

The location is perfect for a quiet isolated beach break. However, due to this you are limited (without a hire car) due to no options for local restaurants or a grocers/ATM - we tried the nearby Bikini beach bar which was fine but limited menu options. The adjacent hotel next door required an expensive day pass to eat or drink there. I would advise a hire car to make the most of your stay here.

The location on the beach is perfect overlooking the ocean, sitting on the balcony or lying in bed listening to the ocean was fantastic. The pool and beach are ideal for swimming and relaxing.

Water pressure low and fridge is loud. But manageable

Great location and views. We had a great stay! Definitely a recommendation. Joan is super and the bars and restaurants nearby are amazing.

Bohemian, authentic experience practically in the waves. The antithesis (and antidote to Cancun) We loved it and talk about it still - forget about 5-stars, this is the real (and increasingly rare) deal. Catch it while you can. Joan is a great, unobtrusive host but responsive when you need her.

An amazing place with a wonderful host, Joan is exceptional.

The location was utterly dreamy - falling asleep to the sound of waves and the Caribbean breeze rustling in the coconut fronds, and being awakened by jungle birdsong was a much-needed tonic after our travels around Mexico. The view was to die for. Joan was an unobtrusive-yet-on-standby host. Super accommodating and charming. Highly recommend!!

the shower...water ran very slow was the only issue....but the view, beach more than compensated for that.

the only thing i would change … is the bed was extremely firm.. a little hard on my hips. and it is definitely good to have a car, unless you just want to stay put (which we did so it was perfect for us.)

the studio is thoughtfully appointed, the terrace is beautiful (and private) with a lovely view of the beach and a hammock that is hard to leave if it weren’t for the water calling. the beach is quiet (away from the masses at akumal beach), the snorkeling is good with easy access. it was so nice to have a private palapa always available ( we did not have to run down and reserve one) And Joan is an excellent host.

the bathroom and kitchen faucets had pressure issues and made squealing sounds unless turned on and off several times. the door and security buttons stuck and made it difficult to get the door open on several occasions.

we loved the location and views. the private palapas were fantastic and the little (and big) touches of art were so delightful! the condo had everything we needed and more.

"Joan" The host was very nice and took care of all our needs. Location was great. Ocean front, beautiful view. The studio was small but we were aware of the size of the unit when we booked it. Small kitchen but well equipped. Range top, toaster oven, Microwave, all the dishes and utensils that you need. No negative surprise's.

Amazing location right on the beach. Lots of amenities that we needed with a baby - microwave, kettle, etc. Having the sound of the waves all the time was amazing. The place really felt like home and we didn’t want to leave.

A little outside from town, but for relaxing at the beach it's the best place :)
