Quinta Del Mar Beautiful Vacation Home with Stunning Ocean Views + Guest House

We could not say enough about this property if we had all day. The trip was for my partners 50th birthday and we invited 9 friends to join. Every single person had a lovely experience. Memo and Mercedes are so so lovely. They are there when you need them and not if you don't. Mercedes cooking was top notch. I highly recommend. We had chilichiles and cochinita pibil. Both were 5 star quality along with the flan. The location was great, we did pay to enter the lagoon due to safety, however straight out and to the left you can enter the ocean by steps and the reef is wonderful and everyone felt safe. We rented golf carts and found that to be fun and easy. We did one day at Akumal beach and this visit they cracked down on snorkeling without a guide. You don't need one to see turtles, but it seems now it is required. I've not had that experience in past visits.My partner and I stayed in the guest house and it was awesome. Enjoyed the hammock and rooftop stargazing. Beds are comfortable. Pretty much a dream vacation. There are lots of great shops, food and activities to keep everyone busy for our 5 days. It is unanimous that this should be an annual trip to Akumal and this is the place to stay. Hope to see Memo and Mercedes again some day. Thank you

Neno & Mercedes were GREAT!! The house needs a little TLC. One of the rooms air conditioner broke and they had it replaced in a day. The floats near the pool need to be replaced. The leather chairs in the living room, need to be re-upholstered. We found getting into the lagoon was way too hard for 5 women in the 70's... but that isn't a reflection on the house. The rooms and pool were wonderful! The view is spectacular... really loved the location and the house. I would stay there again in a minute... car in necessary. La Taverna Italian restaurant was great!!

Such a hospitable and beautiful place to stay. Highly recommend

We stayed here with a group of 7 for a week. The house was great, fully stocked with everything we needed. Every bedroom has a great view of the ocean and AC (although you get such a great breeze we never turned it on). There are a bunch of bikes, and snorkel equipment to use, as well as kayaks. The direct access to Yal-Ku Lagoon was awesome. We brought inflatable paddle boards from home and used them in the lagoon every day. There is also a surf break you can paddle to from the house. We saw a few people out ripping everyday. On calm days you can enter the water right out front. On windy days you can walk a few houses down and enter the lagoon easily. For sure don't pay any money to go into Yal-Ku Lagoon. Definitely rent a golf cart or two. It makes it super easy to go into town to Playa Akumal and all the local restaurants. Memo and Mercedes were great. They cooked us an amazing dinner! For sure have them cook at least one meal. Super safe vibe in the neighborhood put everyone in our group at ease. Gated entrance to get into N. Akumal and there is a police substation near the house.

Wonderful, wonderful views from all rooms, pool and patio!Our family was able to fully relax away from it all, with scores of multicolored tropical fish just steps in the water. Would come again!

There were seven of us coming from three different places. We arrived in good time and everything was perfect in the house. We met Mercedes and memo on the first day, and then Monica on the second. Everyone was terrific Mercedes in memo, who initially weren’t going to have the ability to cook a couple meals, then were able to, and made us to exquisite perfectly prepared and bountiful meals, which we all really enjoyed. The house is lovely and in terrific condition. Loved it all.

We had 7 fantastic days at this beautiful property after Christmas and over the New years. The property far exceeded our expectations and was much bigger in person than we expected based off of the pictures. Monica was extremely reliable and responsive to all of our needs. Mirley and Santiago were the sweetest! The guac, salsa and habanero salsa that Mirley made was off the charts good! It is on a beautiful part of the lagoon were we could jump in and snorkle, although it was very windy several days and we could not snorkle. Didn't matter! We still enjoyed the pool and the view! We were able to star gaze at night and saw the big and little dipper and a shooting star! The community was charming and there are numerous delicious restaurants- La Lunita, Taverna, Turtle Bay Cafe, AK's, Lol-Ha, La Buena Vida, etc. We rented a golf cart but if we weren't lazy, you would not have to have one, but it was nice to zip up to the beach or grab something from the corner store without walking a mile. All in all, we had a lovely time at Quinta Del Mar and are already discussing a return! Thank you Monica, Mirley, Santiago for a fabulous experience and to the owners for opening your darling home for us!

Nothing to criticise. All three generations loved it. The big surprise was the surfing out front with out anyone else. Three members are all excellent surfers unaware this Quinta had it available. Divng , snorkelling, and surfing were thoroughly enjoyed. Dinners were delicious. Everyone wants to return.

We would stay at this property again. Love the small town of Akumal. This house made forna great home base to visit the surrounding areas. The house was very clean and Monica was very easy to deal with.

Enjoyed our time in Akumal and the surrounding towns and attractions.

Despite the huge amount of building around Tullum over the last 20 years, Akumal has stayed a lovely location. Quinta del Mar is a great property, with lovely staff who tidy up each day and help in any way they can. The property has good sized rooms, simple but attractive decor and a good arrange of amenities which suited us - 2 families with a teenager and two other grown up children. There is amazing snorkelling directly off the property to keep everyone entertained, along with mask, snorkels and kayaks to borrow. There is also a great small pool to cool off in. Akumal itself has a couple of nice bars and a few shops (expensive for groceries but good if you can't get to the supermarket that day). The management company was very helpful, providing good information and making the effort to visit and providing contact details to answer any further questions. We greatly enjoyed our stay and would recommend the house and location.

All of the exciting and fun things that there are to do in this spot were great for our family reunion including kids and adults from 9 to 70. The pool was an amazing place to hang out. The housekeepers worked so hard to make sure we had a great time, keeping our house very clean and even cooking us a delicious meal. The location on the lagoon is perfect for snorkeling and kayaking. Would highly recommend!
