Spacious 3 bedroom condo with beachfront views, AC, WiFi!

Standing on one of Akumal’s favorite beaches, this Half Moon Bay penthouse is the definition of low-key Caribbean luxury for up to 6 guests. Featuring all the modern commodities of home this vacation rental is a magical getaway with dazzling sites of the Caribbean Sea. Playa Blanca condominiums are one of Akumal’s landmark properties renowned for its central location, spacious layout, and amazing views.

Located on the third floor, guests can gaze upon the beach and turquoise waters from the beachfront terrace, fully equipped kitchen, breakfast bar, dining and living areas. Large sliding glass doors bring plenty of natural light to enter and when opened welcome fresh ocean breezes flow. The large terrace is furnished with table and chairs and comfortable lounging.

Each one of the penthouse’s 3 bedrooms has an ensuite bath.

- The master bedroom has a king size and the second guest room has a queen sized bed.

- The third suite has a king bed, a kitchenette, entertainment center, private access and beautiful street-side view of the jungle.

Half Moon Bay is a great place to watch marine life, including sea turtles, parrot fish and eagle rays, feeding and at play in Half Moon Bay. You can access a number of adventures by foot or bike. A shallow reef lays right in front of you for snorkeling and encountering tropical fish, rays and the famous Akumal sea turtles. A ten-minute walk leads you to Yal-Ku lagoon, a cenote and large lagoon that blends fresh water with the ocean for a beautiful snorkeling experience away from the waves.

KINDLY NOTE: During the summer months, south winds may bring Sargasso Seaweed to some beaches throughout the Caribbean, including the Riviera Maya. Please know that our onsite teams work very hard to ensure the best possible beach conditions for your stay. As a consideration, you may also see special seasonal discounts applied to during the summer months.

Christmas in Akumal
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 5 had a FANTASTIC holiday week at Playa Blanca! Throughout the week, as we both relaxed at the condo/beach and explored many areas of the Yucatan peninsula, we commented on how smooth things went in large part because of Akumal Direct and its seamless coordination and the outstanding concierge services. Plus, the condo itself was perfectly appointed and super comfortable!

We greatly enjoyed it. With our party of five, we had plenty of room and there were lots of games available for evening family time.

Windy February
The property was excellent. There was a problem with the wind and the noise on our 3rd floor room facing the ocean. The wind howled 24/7. We were told that in February the winds can be particularly strong

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family had the best week in Akumal. The condo was comfortable and provided everything we could ever have wanted. The huge balcony was a great place to have coffee, read, and just sit and look at the beauty surrounding us. While this was our third time in Akumal, it was our first time on the other side of the village and we absolutely loved walking into the village, to Yul-Ha, and had our choice of places to eat and drink only minutes away. Being able to snorkel right out front was an extra bonus. We couldn't have asked for anything better!

Great place!
Enjoyed staying here. Daily cleaning was great. Overall cleanliness was fine. On a quiet road. Felt very safe. Shower was terrible especially in the evening no pressure at all. Really a trickle. Beach is very rocky. Half moon bay had good snorkeling. Not enough beach to throw a ball around. Need water shoes to walk in the water due to rocks and coral. Overall a nice stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view is amazing. The decor is fun and eclectic. Beds where comfy. Spacious bathrooms and each room has its own. Beach access has great sand and is cleaned each morning. Easy parking. Cons: Stove did not work you could smell the gas but would not lite. Showers are huge but terrible water pressure. Small little ants in kitchen. Didn't realize the third bedroom is not attached at all. The wind bangs the hurricane shutters around all night taking away from the ocean noise. Third floor provides nice view but a huge work out when bring stuff up and down. No pool..looks like there was one at one time. Over all nice condo with large porch for stairing out at the beautiful sea.

Great Location
Great 3rd floor condo right on the water. There is two bedrooms inside and a separate stand alone room right outside the front door. This room has its own bathroom, a.c... mircrowave, 5 gallons of bottled water etc... The condo has amazing views and right in the dead middle of the bay. This section of Akumal hasnt really changed in the last 40 years. Its a sleepy little area with an amazing cenote feedig water in the lagoon as it meets the bay. Which makes for awesome snorkeling. There are seveal small restaurants in this area that are walking distance. But we rented a golf cart for $45 usd for a day. The area is safe and super laid back. So if you are looking for clubs, etc... this is not the place for you. But if you are looing for super nice people. good restaurants, snorkeling in the bay or lagoon, and with some very nice accomdations then this is your getaway. Note... the kitchen is very well appointed. Lots of snorkel gear from past guests. Beds were comfy and daily maid service. We chose to go during May and sargasm was rolling in heavy into the bay. Which we knew and did not care. The north and south side of the bay did not have sargasm nor did the cenote/lagoon area. Bring water shoes to walk out a 100 plus yards into the bay as its shallow but rocky. Oh and the management company that manages this condo is honest and informative. Last thing is that its 3rd floor up several flights of stairs and no elevator. So you have to carry your luggage and be fit enough.

Maravilloso!!!!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Es un lugar excelente, super amplio, acogedor, con muchos detalle que hacen muy agradable el ambiente, vistas maravillosas, el aire acondicionado y ventiladores funcionan de maravilla, su cocina muy equipada. Alrededor muy tranquilo. Los encargados nos advirtieron del sargazo (que obviamente no se puede controlar) pero eso no arruinó nuestras vacaciones. Tuvimos oportunidad de ver nacer tortugas y nadar con ellas en otra bahia. Es un lugar para los amantes de la naturaleza pero que nos gusta disfrutar de buena vida. Seguro que volveré pronto. El encargado en la noche muy amable y atento. Quien estaba limpiando el lugar de día nos ayudó con las maletas también. Todos muy amables y atentos.

Es fantástico el lugar, muy amplio, tiene muchísimos apoyos y detalles para quedarse largas estadías, muchos detalles que lo hacen muy acogedor y funcional. No es nada ruidoso, la vista es increíble, el apoyo del conserje aun cuando llegamos tarde fue excelente. Desde que lo contrate recibí mails de los encargados por advertencia de sargazo que si bien fue un tema para la playa inmediata no arruinó nuestra estadía ya que nos fuimos a otra bahía y disfrutamos muchísimo. Es un lugar para estar en contacto total con la naturaleza. Muy, pero muy recomendable.

Nice view
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely stay in the condo and the people from Akumal Direct was very helpful. We were a little disappointed that the beach does not have sandy bottom and you need to wear shoes for a dip, but we found Xpu-Ha beach 15 km from the condo and it’s probably one of the best beaches I’ve ever seen. They have a lovely new beach club that was very affordable and nice bathrooms etc. The apartment itself was very nice. As nice as the pictures. Akumal is super nice. We rented bikes and had really nice meals every day, to be honest I would much rather be in Akumal than Tulum or Playa del Carmen. The Condo is in a nicely gated area and it’s clean and nice everywhere you go.

Beautiful condo in paradise!
This apartment is just perfect. It is sparkling clean and the cleaning staff come in each day to keep it that way. The view from the apartment's balcony is fabulous and the beach is right outside, which is perfect. The apartment's kitchen is very well equipped and there are many towels for home and beach use. The management is extremely helpful and responsive. The condo is beautifully decorated for a beachfront apartment and comfortable for hanging out inside and on the large balcony. The restaurant/bar down the road is super convenient and they are very nice there. The three bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, make it a fantastic place for family (my husband and I had our two adult children and their partners with us). The kids are the ones who named this place (location and apartment) paradise! If you want to relax on the beach with family/friends and enjoy a special peaceful spot, this is the place for you.

Just incredibly beautiful!
What a way to relax!! We stayed with our two adult children, their spouses and a one year old toddler. This place was sooooo perfect! It's a gorgeous "penthouse" right on the ocean! The view from the spacious balcony is mesmerizing. Walk straight out from the condo for some incredible and easy snorkling (we saw stingrays, all the beautiful fish on the reef ... and a turtle!) The owner was very helpful in all respects and arranged everything for us. She answered all our questions very quickly. We had plenty of water delivered daily, maid service was excellent, plenty of towels, sheets, blankets, even snorkling gear and shoes for the water! (Definitely need swim shoes in the water, which was warm and clear with lots of coral pieces underfoot.) If you want to be surrounded by peace, beauty, no crowds, and kind local business folks, definitely stay here. Very comfortable place - tons of DVDs, books, games. Thank you so very much, Cheryl, for sharing your home with us! Love, The Swain-Kunz Family We ate EVERY meal out and walked to each restaurant. DELICIOUS, great service! Only small complaints: the separate suite for the kids with the baby was a little warm and the kids complained that their mattresses were too hard ...

Super Place; Great Value
This place was amazing and a great value. Two couples and three kids spent a terrific four nights here. The location in Akumal and Half Moon Bay was outstanding. Listening to the waves on the balcony was most relaxing. There were at least two good restaurants within easy walking distance. The owner was cooperative and helpful and my only concern while we were there was that she has such nice furniture (a great dining table) and art that I was concerned that the kids might break some valuable art pieces that were within their easy reach. Fortunately that did not happen. We truly enjoyed this beautiful place and hope to be back real soon.

Perfect on every level
This unit could not have impressed us more. While we've visited Akumal several times we've never stayed. This place had all we were looking for and more. It accommodated our group perfectly (my husband and I, 2 kids 9 + 11, and my brother who used the little bachelor suite). Clean and airy with a view we'll be missing until we visit again! Akumal is always such a nice, quiet destination, and we mixed things up with a couple days trips to Tulum. The gentleman at the desk was so helpful in helping us rent a car each time, only $70 us per day. We enjoyed endless beach days, ate incredible food both at home and out, and spent a full day at Yal Ku Laguna which is always my favourite! Thank you so much to our hosts for sharing this gem, we will recommend highly to friends.

Relax, refresh, renew
Beautiful ocean view. Watch the sunrise over the water from your bedroom with shutters that open to reveal the splendor. Plenty of amenities for the condo and the ocean I.e. snorkel gear, etc. Private chef Daveed, a must try. Daily maid service was great. Location perfect to experience all that Akumal offers-beaches, lagoon, restaurants, etc.

What's not to Love?
We stayed here for five wonderful days and loved every minute. The location is perfect, the accommodation is extremely attractive and comfortable, and the view is to die for. The kitchen has everything you need too. An added bonus is the daily housekeeping service. We were spoiled! We enjoyed being able to walk to several excellent restaurants, even after dark. As other reviewers have mentioned, the beach right out front is beautiful but a little rocky getting into the water. Just wear water shoes and you'll be fine getting in and having a nice swim. Want to go to a PERFECT beach? A 15 minute walk takes you to idyllic Akumal Bay. A couple of things to be aware of: you'll walk up a considerable number of stairs to get to this perfect third floor condo, so be prepared. Also, there's no pool on site. That's also remedied by walking 3 minutes to La Buena Vida, a wonderful hangout for food and drinks. They have a refreshing pool on site for patrons of the restaurant and bar. Need to have laundry done? There's no washer/dryer in the condo nor in the complex, but if you take it to the management office at La Bahia (who manage this condo), they'll have it done the same day at a very reasonable cost. What more could you ask for? We would stay at this beautiful place again in a heartbeat!
