Office manager not really welcoming. Beds very comfortable. Linens adequate. Difficult to enter and exit water at beach due to significant seaweed and rocks.

Thank you for choosing Akumal as your vacation destination. We are very sorry that the reception was not as welcoming as normal. We take your comment seriously and have spoken to the manager. Some sargasso arrived earlier than expected. Yes, due to the close proximity of the inshore coral reef water shoes are suggested for entering the water for swimming and snorkeling. Thank you for your visit, Kathleen.

We loved this place, the apartment is clean and beautifully laid out. Cleaners came every day and freshened up the beds are massive and really comfortable. The restaurant downstairs is really good and the staff super cool. The reef directly outside is fantastic for snorkelling and swimming. We LOVED it and will definitely go back again.

The condo was beautiful and the kitchen was well stocked! Our baby loved the foot bath as a splash pad. But the people of the complex really made our stay special! Not mentioned in the listing but there is also an incredible restaurant attached to the condo and a coffee shop across the street. Great location!
The condo and the complex is clean and well maintained. The on sight restaurant is good.

Upon arrival I was in love with the location. You walk right out the door and you are on the beach. The house had everything that you will need for your stay. Housekeeping was super sweet they came every day to clean for us. The manager Roberto was very attentive to our questions about the little community that we were in. All of the locals that work and live there made our stay that much more special, we felt like we were at home. The local shops and food were great. We will be returning in the future and I would highly recommend this property to families.

This is our 5th time staying at Hacienda de la Tortuga and each time is amazing! The property is well-maintained with upgraded beds, linens and wiwfi. The pool is a important asset to have with small children, and the direct beach access is a lifesafer! The staff at La Lunita are always super-helpful! Additionally, there are a few new restaurants and amenities (since our last visit) on Half-Moon Bay that are a wonderful addition!

We really enjoyed our stay in Unit 4. It's a good size and was very clean and tidy on arrival. The location's good, with a cafe across the road and the on-site restaurant, small local shop nearby and more if walk/drive/take the collective into Akumal village. With the beach and bay outside (you need water shoes if you're going to sea swim), you're petty set for a good, quiet vacation. If you need to work/play, the Internet speed's good which we find essential as we work for ourselves. All in all, a good stay.

Spacious, tropical, peaceful, and kid-friendly!
We were surprised at how roomy the place seemed and spent 10 wonderful days during Christmas at hacienda de tortuga. Note that you must book directly via the condo rental company and the office is there at the condo. The property manager stays on-site and even visited us one evening eve when our shower would not turn off! The restaurant downstairs was one of just a few good and eclectic ones in the tiny bay, and depending upon your activity level you can just walk to yak-ku (5 minutes) or akumal village (20 minutes). There is a 24-hour parking lot security person who walks you to the door at night, plus iguana, coatimundi, agouti, giant hermit crabs, and lots of American expats to socialize with if you like!

We had a great stay at the condo, my husband and I and another couple stayed for 9 days. Half Moon Bay is a quiet location, Akumal Bay is much more active/crowded, so depends on what type of stay you're looking for. The restaurant in the condo complex is very good. The Akumal Direct concierge, David, was extremely helpful, both before and during our stay. He arranged our shuttle from to and from the airport, a golf cart rental, a cenote excursion and a taxi to Playa for a shopping day. The sargassum grass was definitely prevalent, but it wasn't terrible in front of this condo. It was much worse on the south part of the bay. We were able to snorkel directly in front of the condo.

This was our first time back to Akumal in more than 10 years. The town has changed a bit but the incredible service from Akumal Direct/Loco ****** remains the same. We were very pleased with the condo and the personal service. Condo was clean and well-laid out. Pool was sparkling and the beach was cleaned each morning. The entire team at Hacienda de la Tortuga was very kind and helpful. La Lunita food is even better than I remember and the "new to me" cafe across the street is great.

This is a wonderful place to stay. The restaurant downstairs is world class. We ate there almost every day not because it was convenient, but because it was the best. The pool was wonderful, the location was quiet, and they did a commendable job battling the seaweed. The seaweed was a shame, and the floor under the ocean was a bit rocky, but that is true in the entire general area. We did have to move to a different unit halfway through our stay because they had to do some repairs, but they were very helpful, apologetic, and accommodating. All in all, it was a very restful and wonderful place to stay.

We have stayed at Hacienda de la Tortuga Unit 4 a number of times. This time did not disappoint! The location is ideal, on the bay and away from the touristy part of Akumal and close to Yal-Ku. Our new find was The Jungla Cafe literally across the road--excellent for breakfast. Best cappuccino ever! Also appreciate having La Lunita downstairs. The unit was in excellent shape. If you wanted to make an improvement, we'd suggest a ceiling fan on the balcony. Appreciated the flexibility of the housekeeper. Tiny suggestion--put a sign over the toilet paper to remind people to use the wastebasket.

I would definitely stay here again. I loved the view, the cleanliness, the onsite restaurant, the pool, the beach access... Sometimes we felt like we had our own private beach. Someone came and cleaned daily, and the parking lot attendants were very helpful as well. The only thing I would have liked more is if there were some sort of laundry service, but I took my laundry to the pueblo and got it washed there which was easy enough with a car. The AC in the bedrooms work great. Unfortunately there is no AC in the main part but the ceiling fans worked well and even in July it wasn't too hot to spend time there. Also, I felt very safe the entire time with my two kids. All in all... great stay! Thank you!

Loved this place. Setting on the beach is perfect and we were surrounded by turtle nests and even saw some hatch. A few restaurants in walking distance (very good restaurant underneath the apartment) but a golf buggy or car helps to get around. Sea and sand are beautiful but beware of sargasso problem some months. We walked up to the main beach which is very nice and where the seaweed was cleared. Denote/lagoon within 5 min walk was beautiful and not crowded. Apartment didn’t look very special from the outside but very nice inside and had everything needed for a great holiday. We would say this part of Akumel is for independent travellers who want to be away from all-inclusive resorts. We loved it for a week and then headed to Tulum for a contrast.

Absolutely loved our stay at Hacienda de la Tortuga Unit 4. We had everything we needed and the hosts were at hand to help within minutes of any queries or questions we had. The location is amazing, first floor, high ceilings, light and spacious open plan kitchen, dining and lounge area looking on to the balcony over looking the pool, facing the beach.Light beaming across the whole apartment as windows & patio run the full width of the building.Both bedrooms were really well presented, the bed in the master was amazing - I had the best nights sleep and made a point of telling everyone how I dreamt every night I slept there whilst on my holiday. The kitchen was equipped with everything you could need including a welcome tray upon arrival. Housekeeping service was spot on and very thorough. We couldn’t have wished for a more chilled/ relaxing time whilst in Akumal. Thank you

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hacienda de la Tortuga #4. We had stayed in this complex on our first visit to Akumal 22 years ago and little had changed. The unit was clean and spacious. The daily housekeeping service was a welcome treat. My husband and I enjoyed sitting on the patio overlooking the pool and ocean each evening. During the day, we could always find a place on the beach to relax and enjoy snorkeling and lying in the sun. We walked into the main part of Akumal each morning and evening for breakfast and dinner and loved the food at each place we tried. We took an airport transfer to and from Akumal and had no need for a car during our stay. We snorkeled at Yal Ku Lagoon one morning because the winds were too strong on the ocean. We also went on a fishing excursion through The Akumal Dive Shop. My husband reeled in 5 fish and the ride was wonderful! We are looking forward to visiting Akumal again next year!
