The condo is clean and management friendly and helpful. Right on the beach, chairs and palapas to lounge, ocean breeze always kept us cool and the view is just stunning. Nice walk to town, great restaurants, easy snorkeling in the bay, so nice to be back in Akumal!

Very comfortable, just steps to the beach and very peaceful. Beach was not busy at all. Alexandro in the office was exceptionally helpful. Recommend having a rental car or golf cart to get around. (Alexandro will help with that.)

Perfect Getaway! Beautiful Beach!
Just wanted to say thank you again for sharing your beautiful spot on half moon bay!
We had a wonderful time swimming with the turtles every day! The playa
paradise staff were terrific, and your suite is lovely. Privacy and relaxation on a wonderful beach. Lots to do within walking distance when you want. Just what the doctor ordered!
We will certainly be in touch to visit again!
Cheers

Everything the listing promised. Property manager and staff was outstanding and extremely accomidating. Condo was very clean with a fabulous view and beach access is just steps from your back porch. Perfect location for first time snorkeling and getting the hang of things before heading down to akumal bay.
The sea grass was terrible in most areas in Akumal but this location was sea grass free and the water was beautiful.

we absolutely loved La Bahia!
Our trip started out in Mahahual, Mexico and we spend our last few days in Akumal at La Bahia. We wish we would have spent the whole time at the La Bahia. It was beautiful and we saw sea turtles in the water right outside our front door! La Bahia was very clean, beautiful and the staff was very friendly and helpful. There's a wonderful restaurant within walking distant. It is right on the ocean, has several tree houses and swings for seats at the bar. We plan on coming back to Mexico and spending our whole vacation at La Bahia!
