Avis Simply Akumal's Best! Luxury Beachfront Penthouse w/Infinity Pool, Rooftop...

Highlights: Amazing view, great staff, gated community, felt very safe. The house keeper does an amazing job and the grounds keepers are very nice and helpful. We loved having breakfast almost daily at the nearby “La Jungla” which is just a short walk away. We also loved having casual dinners and drinks right on the beach at the nearby “La Buena Vida”. This place was almost perfect. Here are some things to note if you’re considering staying here: 1. If you rent a car during your stay, there is parking on site, but not enough parking to accommodate everyone if the building is fully booked. Towards the end of our stay we had to double park at night. 2. The touchpad on the safe did not work during our stay. However the groundskeeper lent us the backup key so that we could store our valuables while we were out. 3. Towards the end of our stay a someone came(unannounced) to work on the AC unit. We left to grab lunch and when we returned, we found ourselves locked out of our place Since guests use the keypad to enter, we had no key to the deadbolt. We had to wait over an hour for them to come unlock the door. After their visit, the thermostat would reset itself to 78 degrees on its own within minutes of us turning it down. We would have to get up several times a night to turn it down to a comfortable temp.

The condo was absolutely beautiful. The view was amazing. We came right after the hurricane and would barely notice with hardworking staff working on the property constantly. The area is a perfect beach town with a close breakfast place “jungle cafe” and a very friendly restaurant essentially across the street, and a corner market type place maybe 1/4 of the mile down the road. Other more fancy restaurants were also within walking distance. The coral reef… amazing. Friendly and reassuring owner who I am sure I drove nuts with all of my questions. The pictures don’t do the place justice, it was beautiful. 25 minute drive from either Tulum or Playa Del Carmen, walking distance to cenote, you can’t go wrong location wise. Lots of little things that make a big difference… coffee pot with coffee, welcoming drinks, the decorations gorgeous, the snorkeling equipment saved us money in rentals. Only complaints was that we had eight people, the place really should t be allowed to accommodate eight. Although there are two blow up beds there is only room for one inside and the other would have to be outside on the roof without access to us, big protection, or locks (or air conditioner). So we had four people camped out on our he couches. I thought the loft has inside access but was wrong.

This condo is amazing. I would stay here again without question. From the spacious showers to the blackout blinds to the patio to the well appointed kitchen to the extraordinarily comfortable beds, this place has it all. The on-site management and daily cleaning service are extraordinarily helpful. Above all, the views from Nahil condos are unmatched in Akumal. It's perfect Several restaurants and the public beach are just a short walk down a quaint streetscape. It makes for a perfect after dinner stroll back to the condo. Very safe and friendly environment. Owner was very responsive and her guidebook and helpful tips were spot-on. Thank you!

This was a wonderful place for 2 couples to stay. Location was great! Walked to wonderful restaurants/bars. We rented a car in Cancun but only used it once! Michaela was prompt in replying to questions. She’s wonderful. And the staff was equally as helpful. Highly recommend going with JP to visit a cenote. The rooftop is amazing. The only thing I didn’t realize from the description is the access to it is not from inside the condo. Love that the 1/2 bath is up there! Enjoyed the hammock! When we return to Akumal we will hope to stay here again.

Beach offers tons to do …. amazing snorkeling … great restaurants, shopping and a cenote all in walking distance. The on-site staff were incredible … especially the main housekeeper. Bird watching and view of ocean from the balcony outstanding!

We stayed here for our honeymoon and didn’t want to leave the view was so beautiful, we loved being able to see the ocean from almost every room. Paddle boards and snorkel gear was a plus the have right there!

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at Nahil! We stayed for 8 days. The location is perfect. My kids loved the pool. The water was beautiful and my family had a great time paddle boarding and snorkeling right off the beach. The seaweed was a problem on the surrounding properties but the management did a great job of keeping our beach clear. The smell of the seaweed was a problem while walking through town but we didn’t notice it while on the property. The condo was beautiful and very clean. The 6 of us did fit ( 4 adults and two teens) however there were only two bedrooms so it wasn’t ideal for those who were sleeping on the air mattress in the living room. They felt as though they didn’t have enough privacy and weren't very comfortable on the inflatable mattress. We knew this going in but we were under the impression the pent house only had access from our unit which wasn’t the case so no one really felt comfortable sleeping up there, plus it was just too hot to sleep up there. That being said, we didn’t see anyone else come up during the day while we were using it. The only other thing I would mention is that the elevator doesn’t work and it was a bit cumbersome dragging our heavy luggage up and down the 4 flights of stairs during arrival and check out. My aunt also hurt her hip and had a hard time getting up and down the stairs multiple times a day during our stay. It was a beautiful view and worth it but not good for those with mobility issues or certain health conditions. The town was very nice and we enjoyed shopping and eating at the restaurants. It was also a great location for visiting the cenotes and other attractions such as Xcaret and xelha which were a highlight of our trip. We would recommend this place to family and friends and would definitely stay here again.

Limitations on when you could use and what settings you could put your air conditioner to. Elevators did not work. Penthouse is on the 4th floor making it difficult. Coast was experiencing a serious problem with the accumulation of seaweed. Management did a good job of keeping our limited beach area clear, however smell was always a problem due to this inversion regardless of where you were at.

The condo was exactly how it was represented online! We had an amazing time in this beautiful and clean environment. From booking, arrival and departure everyone we spoke or emailed to was quick, efficient and polite.

Great location. 4th floor was not great until you got to experience the view in the morning for coffee.
