You can't be more surrounded by tranquil beauty than from this 
beachfront, beach-level condo on Half Moon Bay in Akumal. Akumal is 
a quiet, very private, residential community of low-rise condos and 
private villas generously spaced out along the beach, with many fine 
restaurants and world renowned walk-off-the-beach snorkeling and 
diving.  Local condo management is onsite to assure continued 
quality throughout your stay.

Here, just an hour’s drive straight south on a well paved road from 
Cancun, you escape the hustle and bustle, kick off your shoes, don 
your swim suit, and plunge into the turquoise Caribbean Sea. The 
atmosphere is very relaxed. Walk bare-footed in T shirt and shorts 
to a beachfront restaurant for fabulous fajitas and a margarita if 
you like. All the local restaurants in Akumal treat their water 
making the dining completely safe as well as delicious. 

The condo, situated on a white sandy beach, has gorgeous water views 
and is private because of beautiful tropical landscaping surrounding 
the patio. Inside, the rooms are light and airy, brightly color 
coordinated with Mexican Caribbean charm. There are open views of 
the water from the living room, dining room, kitchen, and Master 
bedroom suite .The unit has an open floor plan with a  step down 
living room opening onto a beach level patio large enough for dining 
or relaxing in a Mayan hammock.
