Lovely place, could use better management

Loved our time at La Iguana! Wish the office were more labeled and accessible and that the front desk were manned more frequently. Also would have liked curtains in the bedroom for a little privacy. Overall still a fabulous stay.

Hi Christine, Thank you for your review.

Just around the corner from several restaurants, Ya Kul Cenote in very quiet low traffic end of Akumal Neighborhood. Great little beach area infront of condos. Easy water access, bring your water shoes, its a little bit of a rocky start. Neighbors were friendly, staff helpful - a fantastic experience.

Paradise

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our 5th time staying at Half Moon Bay and Akumal still remains a tranquil and scenic location to either stay for a while (lots of great restaurants within walking/biking distance) or to use as your base to explore the rest of the Mayan Riviera and Yucatan Peninsula. La Iguana offers great snorkelling right off the back yard as well a quiet beach front for chilling. We love to rent a car to make sure we visit some amazing cenotes that are close by as well as several Mayan ruins within doable driving distances. Visit and then come back for more and more. Paradise never gets boring!

Beautiful property in the perfect location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Awesome views, amazing snorkeling, no huge piles of sargassum, friendly people, full kitchen for any meals, walking distance to restaurants and a small grocery store and Yal-Ku lagoon, both a cool and a heated pool. Suggestion: go to the smaller south entrance of Yal-Ku (Snorkeling and Lagoon) and NOT the north (Riviera Maya). You can still swim in the same entire lagoon area. But the snorkeling is actually better at the south end anyway. No food is served at the south end, but you can bring a lunch, walk back to your condo, or walk to Morningstar for lunch.

HOT: Air Conditioning misleading

This is our fifth stay at La Laguna or La Sirena right next door. It is the first time we have been uncomfortable in the condo due to the heat. The listing shows air conditioning as an amenity. There is a unit in the bedroom. It keeps the bedroom and attached bath cool. However the rest of the unit was so hot that we had to spend our time in the bedroom. I wish I had read all the reviews before booking as others mentioned this as well. Grounds manager Hector is a class act and the property is clean and well cared for. The property manager was very responsive to any questions we had. Housekeeper was also very friendly and efficient. Snorkeling good for the rainy season. Highly recommend La Lunita restaurant just a 5 minute walk. We would definitely stay again if a second air conditioning unit is installed in the living area.

Response from VrboOwner on 30 Sept 2024
Thank you so much for your valuable feedback, Linda. We sincerely apologize for the discomfort caused by the heat during your stay. We understand how important a cool and comfortable environment is, and we appreciate your input on the air conditioning. Your suggestion regarding an additional AC for the living area has been noted and passed along to the owner with suggested improvements for the unit. We're delighted to hear that you had a positive experience with Hector, the property manager, and the housekeeper and enjoyed the cleanliness, snorkeling, and nearby restaurant La Lunita. We hope to welcome you back soon and provide an even better stay. Happy travels!

La Iguana #4

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We would not recommend this unit. The location is very quiet but the unit itself is very dated. The “living room” is pretty uncomfortable. The couches are old and lumpy. There are no drapes in the living room so in the afternoon the unit gets very warm. There is no AC in the main living area. The kitchen has almost no storage space for dry groceries. The bedroom does have AC but on windy evenings the widows rattle a lot.

Good Location and Close to Yal Ku Lagoon

Not sure when the building was completed, but it is in need of a facelift. There are some annoyances in the unit. The Master bath sink hot water just dribbles out. The windows really need to be washed inside and out. It is hard to see the beautiful Half Moon Bay because of cloudiness from salt film and debris. There is only one air conditioner in the unit and it was stated that it is in the Master Bedroom. It really is not sufficient to cool the entire condo. The toaster and coffee pot really need to be replaced. They are limping along. But, the views are outstanding and the pools, even though not heated, are refreshing at this time of year.

Thank you so much for your feedback, Laura. This is one of our most budget friendly buildings in the area and a great bargain for its amazing location and views! The on-site staff is constantly maintaining it and taking care of its exterior areas. We just stopped by the unit to go through your observations. The water pressure in the master bath was a bit lower but the staff is already working on it. The unit comes with daily maid service and the maid is happy to clean the windows daily upon request. Being located right by the sea, the salinity can cloud the windows a bit throughout the day. At the time of our visit, the windows were clean and we could see the bay clearly. There is a brand new AC unit in the master bedroom and as it's a smaller condo, there has only ever been one AC for the entire apartment. However, we will consider the purchase of another unit. The owner has just ordered a new toaster and coffee pot, those are replaced more often in this area due to the humid environment. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the location and the amazing views :) Thank you again for staying with us. Happy travels!

Stay at La Iguana

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a great location to be away from the seaweed. Had great snorkeling right out our door.The only things that we didn't like about the condo were minor, but did effect the feeling of being cared for. We only had one very small bar of soap and one packet of shampoo upon arrival and were never given any more even though we ran out. The two wash clothes were only changed out every three days. In fact, they finally took the two dirty and left one clean. Most condos do provide enough coffee and condiments for the first morning. There was none. We even had to buy a box of filters. Otherwise the condo was very clean and comfortable. The outside maintenance men were friendly and kept the property spotless. We'd stay here again, just maybe in a different unit.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First, the pros:beautiful viewslovely property2 (!) poolsFriendly and efficient staffWe liked the location on the northern edge of Half Moon Bay. It was tranquil. The staff was just great. Friendly, they looked after us better than expected. One of the pools was a plunge pool, which was colder than the sun pool. On a hot day, it was a welcome respite.Cons:Climate control does not adequately cool the entire unit.The furniture was very uncomfortable.While the unit had a single split cooling unit in the bedroom, it was not sufficient to cool the entire unit. Despite our efforts to keep the temperature below 90 degrees F, it was a challenge. The furniture, including a concrete couch with foam cushions and a folding futon, was not the most comfortable. The dining area, with a dinette set and 2 chairs, was also showing signs of wear. We found it difficult to find a comfortable spot to relax for more than 20 minutes.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved being at the upper end of Half Moon Bay as the location was quiet and very welcoming. It was a short walk to our favourite restaurants and to the new Northstar Cocina. The Northstar's food was exquisite and the serve out of this world. It became our daily stop for beverages and their incredible fish tacos. The property was going through renovations so we didn’t really get the peace, total quiet and feel for this great location. The staff were wonderful and did their best to keep the grounds as pristine as possible. The view from our unit was unbelievable as we could watch the sunrise and part of the sunset from our living room. The unit was dated but all the amenities were there that we were looking for. It was kept as clean as possible while the renovations were being done. The pictures of the unit need a small update to reflect the current owners but all said I would recommend this unit and would stay there again. We just love Akumal!!
