El Ultimo Maya, hotel in Akumal

Set in Akumal and with Akumal Beach reachable within 1 km, El Ultimo Maya offers concierge services, non-smoking rooms, a terrace, free WiFi and a restaurant.

Lovely small and friendly hotel. Right in the middle of the village and just a few minutes walking from the beach. The rooms are basic but comfortable, everything you need for a day or two in Akumal. The staff helped me to arrange a snorkeling trip with a great guide (it was just the two of us, much better than the bigger groups you can join on the beach) and helped with working out colectivos, etc.

Maya Eco Village, hotel in Akumal

Set in Akumal, 28 km from Tulum Archeological Site, Maya Eco Village offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace.

Beautiful very well designed garden making you feel you are alone in a jungle paradise, very nice early in the morning with the sun coming off the trees and sounds of birds. Very nice touches with good lighting and seating area about the property and swing seat in the room. Very welcoming host and helpful with the travel cot for baby. Staff seemed friendly. The pool was so nice and relaxing It is possible to have dinner at the property for an extra cost, and the dinner was very tasty, unfortunately the host wasn't available for our whole stay but recommended areas to eat in the evening.

    I think it should be clearly stated that the ocean swimming and snorkeling on the property is quite limited unless you want to pay for a guide and wear a life jacket. The areas where paid guides take people are often crowded. No groceries stores in the area, only 7-11 type shops with processed foods. Breakfast (continental) was quite good. To upgrade to egg dishes was way overpriced. Very few dinner options available. A couple of restaurants within walking distance. No evening dining at the hotel itself. If you are not an ocean swimmer or snorkeler but just want to swim in a pool or lay on the beach this place would work for you.

    Akumal is a nice town with a very nice beach and a great option to observe sea turtles in the Turtle bay, do a diving course or just chill at the beach. Unfortunately, you can't get to any of the beaches for free, all of the entrance is paid. We found the local guys who were shouting at us and always wanting money for something or trying to sell us something quite disturbing and some of them even rude to us as foreign visitors. The prices the beach are very high in the proximity od the beach. At the end of our stay someone ransacked our friend's room and soon after stole my handbag when we were sitting in a restaurant in Akumal town. I think there is a thief mafia operating around.

    There is lots to Akumal not just a restaurant and a little beach. There are beaches, many different restaurants and cenotes. Tami and Elliot will help you understand the taxi system and also how to hop the combis (Public van service) that are cheap and easy to use. They are not chicken busses. There are cenotes everywhere. Some very tiny and some meandering through the jungle. An easy one is Cenote Azul. No real snorkeling but a beautiful place. Charge $10 dollars or much better rate if you pay on pesos. Use pesos as often as possible. Get pesos from the ATMs they have the best conversion rate. The condo beach is a bit of a walk, it who doesn’t need walking, but the cenote flows out into the ocean. Great a snorkeling. Big variety of fish. You can see the transition layer between fresh and salt water. I think our favorite place where we went twice was La Buena Vida restaurant on Akumal beach and after dinner walk up the beach And hitchhiking a golf cart ride back to the highway for a taxi ride ride north back to Sirenis. Most everyone speaks tolerable English but be respectful and learn some rudimentary Spanish like bathroom, beer, check please, thank you and please. Whew. Can you tell we had a great eight day trip?

    It was a good place for our troop to convene - 7 in all. We had some fun - particularly at the shows. The food was good but not great. The staff was great. The beach was a disappointment - full of seaweed and rocky. Trucks on the beach at 7am sunrise a big turnoff. I would not return unless the beach situation improves.

    I didn't spend time in Akumal proper- most of the time was on the resort, but there seemed to be a LOT of options for activities on that stretch of road between Tulum and Playa del Carmen, so as a starting point, finding a resort in Akumal is a great location. My friend and I took a 30min taxi to Playa del Carmen and a 20min ride to swim with dolphins. We also went with the wedding party to Tulum and a cenote which was gorgeous and that trip was very short as well. Lots to do in the area!

    Amazing hotel! we had a great time here, it was all we expected and more. Food was really good, many different options to eat at the buffet or the special restaurants. we did not get reservations for restaurant but it was easy to get a table. we don’t have anything to complain about to be honest. our room was awesome and really close to the beach (we loved the beach). I will say this is a great option for you to stay, we will repeat (maybe changing to another hotel in the complex).

    Beautifully decorated and exceptionally clean. Very comfortable beds, great views, and wonderful pool areas. Fresh bottled water, coffee & snacks were provided, as well as extra towels, sheets, huge thick beach towels, and a travel cooler. The private rooftop pool area was amazing. The owner/host, Kevin, was very helpful and went out of his way to help with questions. I hope to go back & will definitely recommend to friends and family.

    Excellent location if you plan visiting Xel-Ha, Akumal (to swim with turtles), Tulum, etc. It is in a gated neighbourhood so you feel safe at all times, it has access to the beach, a cenote and an absolutely amazing lagoon. The flat was immaculate, so clean, tidy and nice decorated, with all the appliances you could need. The hosts are really nice and friendly and thoughtful. Would definitely stay there again and recommend it.

    The staff at the arrival time was very nice . The location is good for 2 days, place in the middle of golf course and jungle. You get free shuttle to the beach and the main gates . If you are arriving by collectivo, ask upfront for qr code and organise the shuttle from the gates as there is no connection from the guard with the hotel. Internet works very well. In general the place looks very good.

    Great location and facilities, with lovely touches - we particularly liked the complimentary toiletries which have a lovely honey scent, and the opportunity to use the kayaks, which was great fun. The stretch of beach up to akumal is dominated by hotels and resorts so you won't get much of a feel for local culture - but in Akumal centro (not playa) there's a nice fruteria and less touristy amenities.

    The property had great food and amenities - their gym and spa was high end. The staff were all kind and friendly. After staying at TRS, we stayed in Tulum and to be honest, took for granted how much money we saved with the all inclusive. So though the baseline may be considered pricey, very worth it if you’re looking to just relax and are content not having to explore everyday.

    This is a hidden gem for budget travelers and the Italian couple that manages it are great. Located on the Main Street of Akumal town (across the highway from the beach) you go up some stairs and enter a charming courtyard. The rooms are simple but clean. There is a cafe and restaurant below and the tiramisu is amazing!

    The location is good, just right in front of the beach. But other than that, there is no transit or pedestrian to the Akumal center, it took you $250 peso for a 5 mins taxi to Akumal.
