I have stayed at Akumal twice and thoroughly enjoyed each visit!
My favourite part is the buffet with a good variety of quality food that varies at breakfast, lunch, and across themed dinners. The restaurants are also a great experience; even if some are big hits and others are misses, you can always find more food around the resort. The servers are almost always very friendly and charming.
I stayed in renovated rooms that were clean and bright, though the linens and towels could feel a bit more luxurious.
The location is beautiful and a variety of live music performances such as mariachi bands are a great way to relax and enjoy the evening. The entertainment crew also does a great job around the pool and are fun to people watch even if I didn't participate. Highly recommend!

Amazing resort! The food is very good! The buffet is amazing. The staff are all arpund wonderful, helpful, kind and always happy. Our only complaint was the beds, more on the hard side. We did need extra blankets for the room as it was very chilly, but we like to sleep like that anyways. Amazing beaches, lots of activities, and the market is great! 4/5 would be 5/5 if the beds were more comfy!

This resort never disappoints. While the rooms are getting somewhat dated they are always clean. If you need anything just ask and it’s there in a flash. Husband wasn’t feeling well and they phoned the room twice to see if he needed anything…chicken soup, water etc. The thing I would like to highlight is the amazing waiter service at the main buffet. Eric (a.k.a. Speedy) is AMAZING!!! Never lets you run out of coffee/mimosas/water…genuinely cares for each and every person. 5 stars for Eric!!!! Beach and pool area also nice and clean.

The personnel of the hotel is very responsive, friendly and responsible. The food was good and fresh. The buffet staff (Akumal) were quick and hospitable. Eric Franco
Lourdes and Jose (Lukas), served us for breakfast, lunch and dinner and they were just amazing! Very professional guys! We also would like to mention receptionist shift manager Salvador (Coba), who's efforts and professionalism helped to make our stay amazing and cozy!

Just home after a 2 week holiday for a family of 5, what can I say, just wow!!! The hotel, location and and staff were amazing. Our son was sick for 1 day, too much excitement and sun and the staff were brilliant, offering anything we wanted to support and help. So much to see and do. It was stunning, beautiful and I’m in awe of everyone working there. Nothing was too much trouble and I would highly recommend staying here to anyone of any age. Just perfect
