Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Akumal

A truly perfect experience from beginning to end. I took my mom and a group of her friends here for a 60th celebration and everyone was so blown away. We felt so safe and comfortable the entire time. All of their suggestions were outstanding. Would absolutely recommend and am planning on coming back!

The place was beautiful and extremely clean. The host was very responsive and helpful. My friends and I had a lovely time —would definitely stay here again.

This condo was the perfect stay for us! Beautiful, clean, and steps from the beach. We will be back!

Erik’s house was very spacious just as described! Erik was very attentive and always responded right away! My children enjoyed the pool during our stay! No problems during our stay!

We had a magical week at Adolfo’s place with our family of 5 adults and 2 kids. The location is spectacular and the kids loved being able to play on the beach and jump in the pool. Early risers will love the sunrise view from the beach. The location itself is an amazing jumping off point to enjoy Akumal (great taco spots in town!), Tulum, and local cenotes and eco parks. We were a bit anxious about not having AC in the main living area but the breeze was beautiful and it allowed us to really embrace indoor/outdoor living. The caretaking staff are wonderful and very helpful - they helped us arrange for massages at the house and kept the property meticulously clean. We also took advantage of Chef Carlos’s services and are so happy we did. The house itself is very comfortable. Showing its age in places but we appreciated it being un-fussy - especially with young kids. The kitchen is well-appointed with dishes but you’ll need to bring your own basic cooking supplies.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this Airbnb! From start to finish, everything was seamless and exceeded our expectations. Hector and his team went above and beyond to make us feel truly special and taken care of — their hospitality was unmatched. The country club was a highlight of our stay — stunning surroundings, delicious food, and the kindest, most professional staff we’ve encountered. It felt like a home away from home, but with the luxury of a five-star resort. We can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!

This was like staying in our own private resort. The beach area was the most versatile and enjoyable of any home we e stayed in. Tons of different seating configurations, and additional snorkeling and kayaking gear. . And of course, laying in the hammocks on the extended dock was heavenly. The inside of the home worked very well for us. Nice seating in the living room and kitchen with amazing views of the water. Beds were comfortable, toilets and showers did their jobs. Plus roof top pool was a great treat. Finally the staff Marcos and his wife, were very kind and helpful if we needed something. And Marcel was excellent with communication. Aside from the very bumpy road leasing to the home (around 5 minutes of grief, but not unusual in areas like this) this was a perfect, relaxing base for seeing the Tulum area. (Note, it is much better to have your own car as the home is around 20/30 minutes drive to downtown Tulum.

Great house with amazing views and beach access. Cecilia was so helpful answering questions and making recommendations. Rosie kept the house spotless. We had chefs come in (Daniella and Flor) who made us so many great meals. We walked to town a few times with our kids, which was fun. The only bummer was the amount of sea grass on the beach, but that’s a seasonal thing. Luckily there are plenty of places to go to adventure off to. Overall it was a great place to stay and enjoy.

We had a lovely stay. Condo was perfect and exactly as explained. Bring some laundry detergent with you. Only downside was it wasn’t walkable to anything so you have to have a car but we knew this in advance. Akumal is 5 min away and Tulum is 20-40 depending on where you want to go. Lilian was super responsive and helpful.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect for us, quiet, roomy, with access to both pool and beach. We loved the pool by the beach!! The building complex is great, although the walk to the unit is somewhat long especially when carrying luggage or groceries! We had a car so getting to restaurants and grocery options was easy. Tulum is not far, appx a 20 min drive where there are lots of restaurants and 2 large grocery stores. I would not recommend staying here without a car. Shana and her co-hosts are great, very responsive and friendly, as are the security folks at the entrance. We recommend this location without hesitation and would definitely return if ever back to Akumal.

Edna was an extremely sweet, responsive, and helpful host. Her place was beautiful, walking distance to activities and restaurants, and private. We highly recommend this fabulous place!

So beautiful great location will definitely come back thanks Nick!

The place is wonderful and our host was great as well. Location is perfect, it is a beachfront property so you always wake up to the sound of the waves and the birds. The place is a walk distance of restaurants and cafes so it made our life so much easier.

Jesus places was very clean, comfortable and well located inside Bahia principe condominium. Recommend stay at his place whenever you are around Tulum. He was a great host and was responsive every time we needed him. Easy check in and check out and great deal for the price. Thanks Jesus!

I loved staying here it’s in the jungle and it’s so pretty there is so much stuff to do near by and the stay was nice as well as the pool !! I would definitely recommend

We had a wonderful stay at Templia! The space was perfect for a relaxing and quiet getaway—especially during our visit in May when the town was peaceful and calm. We loved being able to walk to a nearby convenience store and a few great spots for breakfast and brunch. The concierge team was fantastic—helping us set up excursions and arranging private chefs so we could enjoy delicious dinners right in our rental. We always felt safe and well taken care of throughout the week. Highly recommend Templia for anyone looking for a comfortable and serene escape!

We enjoyed our 7 day honeymoon in the YalKulCai condo. It was so artistic and clean and quiet. We rented a car, the walk to the main beach is 2km. There are a couple restaurants close by that we enjoyed. We also visited Tulum and Xel-ha, sat by the pool and visited a private Cenote.

This is my 2nd stay at this location and with this host. I must say my stay is ALWAYS amazing. The concierge is also very helpful. They helped me setup an amazing birthday set up for my boyfriend. I would definitely book again.

This was a vacation 16 years in the making and we wanted it to be special. Three generations of our family would be traveling together and we need the accommodations to be better than good. We needed them to be remarkable. You read the descriptions and see the photos when deciding on a place to stay, and sometimes they are accurate enough. Jaclyn's photos and description of the property did not do it justice. The condo, the property, and the staff were so far beyond our expectations, I can't even begin to say enough. I don't think we've ever stayed anywhere in our years of traveling that I would make the comment that the gardens and the view alone were enough to warrant a 5-star review. All said, the condo was light, spacious, and comfortable. The decor was beautiful and displayed the talents of the local people. Everything you could need is provided. We'll never forget our stay at Jaclyn's little slice of paradise on the Riviera Maya. Hopefully we'll return again soon!

This home is a little slice of heaven. Just enough off the beaten path to be able to fully unwind. Home is so comfortable with everything you need. Beautiful surroundings, kind genuine people, nature. You can get a golf cart and so many activities and restaurants are minutes away. The restraint “la lunita” is right next to the pool in front of the condo. The food and drinks are tops. We have stayed here twice now. I hope to come many more times. My family agrees it’s has been one of the best vacations we have ever been on both times. 10 of 10 highly recommended.

I spent a week at Cheryle's place. It was fabulous, every part of it. First, Cheryle is the best Air BnB host I have ever experienced (and I've experienced a lot!). Before going down, I had a question about sargassum on the beach, and she sent detailed responses and pictures - which was so helpful! She also let me check in early. She also checked in throughout my stay, to make sure everything was going well. Her apartment is lovely too. All of the photos that she has on the listing capture it exactly. But it's better than the photos. I enjoyed the apartment. I was working; it's a great place for a digital nomad. I also really enjoyed the shared pool, much more than I expected. It's beautiful, jungly, quiet - a really nice place to chill. I saw lots of wildlife too, just sitting by the pool. I had a rental car. That made it easy. It would be doable without one, but personally I liked being able to go where I wanted / when I wanted. I would love to go back when I'm not working!

Lovely place in beautiful setting with ocean view and constant sound of the surf. We've stayed before and will come back. While there's no beach access, we don't mind - just go to the beach or lagoon nearby.

We had a wonderful stay at La Bahia. The host was helpful before we booked and afterwards with any questions as well as instructions. The staff at the condo was also attentive, including fixing a broken freezer very quickly. The beach access was superb despite the sargassum this time of year. We'd recommend getting a car or stopping in a bigger town with a full grocery store before heading to the Airbnb. Overall, we had a great stay and would recommend La Bahia to anyone looking to visit Akumal!

Had an amazing week at Cherri’s condo - the view was unreal and we loved the great snorkeling right out front of the building!
