Super chill vibe!

The place is great - the ground floor was fabulous so we could go back and forth to the beach )right in front of the unit) easily! Also, this specific unit is not directly in front or beside the pool which makes it more peaceful - it is just a 30 second walk, but makes a difference. There was a lovely welcome basket with snacks and fruit when we arrived which was really a nice touch. The kitchen is the best stocked kitchen we have ever had - literally everything you need in terms of cookware and tableware and they even had spices, coffee. The glasses were local and so pretty - and real glass as opposed to plastic! The fridge seemed to leak a little - we put a towel down and it wasn’t a big deal. The king sized bed was very comfortable.

Vacation in Akumal

We had a good stay at Playa Caribe from May 13-20, 2023. Some areas we would have liked to seen improved are as follows: -blackout curtains needed. This location has the brightest outdoor lights of any condo in the area and there aren’t any blackout curtains. This was really bad in the second bedroom overlooking the entrance. -no scissors in the place made for a lot of use of my tiny nail scissors. I’ve never stayed anywhere that didn’t have scissors in the kitchen. -there was an ant issue, which is to be expected on the ground floor but still annoying. -hand soap is provided and so is dish soap but no shampoo. -this place desperately needs a clothes line or a drying rack. We had to resort to using hangers from the living room curtain rod to dry damp items overnight. A simple clothes line or rack would have solved this. -all the (only 2) hooks in the bathroom were broken so we had nowhere to hang towels or other items except from the towel bar. -the pool is very tiny. Normally this wouldn’t be an issue except that with the sargasso, you can’t get to the beach. -sargasso: the barrier was installed and finished before we arrived but a storm sent a bunch over it a few days before we got there. It seems that the condos on the beach stopped any of the beach cleanup with the new barrier and so it was worse than when we stayed in Akumal in August of 2022 when there wasn’t a barrier. I was very frustrated by that since it meant we still didn’t get the beach we hoped to

Perfect Paradise Retreat

This condo was perfect! The location couldn’t have been better and I love the ground floor access to the beach and pool! Our patio felt huge and the area out beyond felt almost private (even though it is shared by all guests). I loved the little tables and shade spots directly on the beach! Beds were comfy enough, definitely felt like a squishy topper over a VERY firm mattress, but thank heavens for the topper. Kitchen is equipped with almost everything you’d need except for shot glasses and amenities to do your own dishes. Blender worked great! I think the highlights of this condo were the location, the set up, and the staff! We will definitely come back and I’d rebook this place in a heartbeat.
