Private Pool Villa: Gorgeous/Comfortable/Spacious

Welcome to a private villa part of the prettiest beach complex in Akumal, located right on Half Moon Bay, the only one with a gorgeous beach, large private gardens with a HUGE pool, and the home of the most fantastic snorkeling. The villa is located in the heart of North Akumal, which is the geographical center of Mayan Riviera.

The perfect place: to RELAX on our beach, EXPLORE the area, SNORKEL our bay, DIVE cenotes, VISIT many different types of parks: adventure, nature , and even SEE wonderful RUINS. There is so much to in the area, that you need to not overplan, and ensure that you make time to just ENJOY our place.

The villa sits right next to our large pool in the middle of our tropical gardens, and only a few steps from our private beach! The villa is spacious and comfortable for the larger or multi-generational family. With two large living areas inside, everyone to spread out with plenty of room. There are also two outdoor living areas, downstairs a smaller screened porch right next to the pool, and upstairs a large outdoor area perfect for star gazing! eating area just next There is even an outdoor
The villa itself is a large 2 story house, with 3 large bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms. The large master bedroom has a king sized bed and on-suite bathroom. The 2 bedrooms downstairs, have a king bed and 2 twin beds. Being the owners 2nd home, the villa is FULLY equipped with everything you could need for comfortable living, with many special touches, EVEN DAILY MAID SERVICE.

Outside, our pool, the largest in the area, appeals to all. It has a large sunning ledge which functions also as a very nice children's pool, and even boasts a lap lane! Or course, there are multiple seating areas with comfortable chairs.

Surrounding the villa and pool are our lush and well maintained tropical gardens. With many different types of tropical plants, many unique birds, animals and butterflies are attracted to our complex….even the occasional spider monkey! With double the space, our little complex has a sense of privacy and serenity that won't be found elsewhere in the area.

Finally, our beach! Being on the north end, and having double the space, we are more private. There is plenty of room to spread out on our many beach loungers and chairs, for those special private moments.

This property was located in a very quiet area of Akumal. Great location to the ocean - literally a 2 minute walk. Great accommodations and Diana is very helpful. Would recommend to others.

Fantastic Stay at Villa Lijeson at La Sirena Condo's
This was my 5th time vacationing in Akumal. This should tell anyone interested in staying at Villa Lijeson (or elsewhere in Akumal) what I think of the area. As for Villa Lijeson, it was clean and very well appointed. I highly recommend it to anyone with a group 6 or less.

Great family location
We were a group of 7, ages 2-57. The photos are accurate, the property was well maintained and staffed with friendly professionals. One thing to note that we liked but others may find it a consideration...the property is 2km north of Akumal on a deadend road. There are a few restaurants and a mini market for quick supplies but it is very much off the beaten path, quiet, and low-key neighborhood. We walked 5 minutes to Yal-Ku to snorkel, there are three entrances, we used the south one and were happy with their services. You can bring your own gear or rent from them.

Nice Place and Location
The small house is on the inside of a complex next to the pool, so it does not front the ocean/bay. But, with a 2 year old, that worked well for us. There is no beach in front of the complex, it is just a rocky area at the bay side, most peoploe wore sea shoes but I didn't need them. The reef located on the north end of Half Moon Bay is beautiful - great coral and fish. The south end of the Bay had no visibility and lots of seaweed. So the location at the north end was excellent. Nice people stayed in complex. House spacious for 5 people. Good housekeeping and support services. Easy parking. Clean. Upstairs Master bedroom is more of a suite with nice veranda off the bedroom with table and umbrella. As with the whole Mayan Rivera, lots of seaweed on beach (piled 2 feet high in most places), but you could not smell it from the location which was a big plus. Very nice to sit on the comlpex's lounge chairs under the palm trees with the sea breeze, listening to the surf roll over the reef. When windy, it is tough swimming with a current. When not windy, open water swimming outside the reef was excellent. But too much seaweed for swimming inside the bay; you need to stay in the north end.

Great Place
Great all around! Condo was beautiful!! Right on the beach. No seaweed, sand beach, but very rocky getting into water. Across from XU lagoon. A great place to snorkel. Great restaurants nearby. As well as cenotes, Tulum, monkey sanctuary. Very chill place, in a jungle - like atmosphere. the opposite of Cancun!!

Beautiful villa in Akumal north
This villa had more that enough room for our family of four, and the location was perfect! The property was very well kept with beautiful gardens, and our kids really enjoyed being able to snorkel as well as cool off in the pool. There are two restaurants within walking distance although we did use our car for more options in the town and surrounding areas. We really enjoyed the quiet and beauty of Half Moon Bay and hope to visit again!

Great location and layout but issues
The actual condo complex is really lovely, from the pool to where it’s located on the bay and how the grounds are maintained is first rate. Daily housekeeping service is very nice too. We did run into a few issues though which is reason fot rating. The property owner/management company was difficult to get a hold of through email and texts. The automated emails come and I replied via email and text and didn’t hear anything back for a few days while trying to organize transportation services and groceries. So responsiveness wasn’t great. We had paid for an extra half day as we were arriving early but when we got to unit it had not been cleaned and still had a messy kitchen, beds with no sheets, and general mess from prior renters in unit when we arrived. Everyone was exhausted and just wanted to rest but we had to wait for a few hours for cleaners to come through and provide linens. The internet service is spotty, it goes in and out and the wifi signal is only available on the lower level. It maybe typical for area but remote work would be difficult if you had to do any teleconferencing or required a stable connection. The unit needs some deferred maintenance, the pillows and some of the mattresses are like rocks or just have zero support and likely very old. I sleep on an extra firm mattress and everyone except our youngest said how uncomfortable the mattresses were. I woke up most evenings with shoulder and hip pain on the mattresses. The ac unit in one of our bedrooms would cycle constantly on and off and rattled a good bit, enough so that we put our deep sleeper in that room as he can sleep through anything. The last two nights the remote stopped functioning in same room and was freezing in the room even though it had been set to 25 C and we layered with towels. About a 1/4 of the drink wear needs to be replaced as it’s cracked and leaks. Just in general items in the unit are well loved and in need of replacement. I’d also suggest for trash cans to be replaced with one with a lid including bathroom trashes as you’re supposed to put TP in trash as well. I don’t want to deter people from staying here though as the unit is overall really lovely and the location is fantastic if you’re a fan of first class snorkeling but it just isn’t a four or five star VRBO experience either. Some minor investment in the unit, new cups, fixing a/c, pillows, mattresses, trash cans, better communication would easily put it back at a 4 or 5.

We were very happy with our accommodations and the property. All the staff and other residents were friendly and the pool and beach were wonderful to use. Glad we decided to stay here as opposed to All Inclusive. Only negative was the building next door had 3 different groups that were very noisy and made it impossible to sleep for 3 of the 5 nights we were there. That's just the luck of the draw tho. Snorkeling was amazing at the nearby lagoon and quite good at our beach.

Excellent location and accomdations
Our stay in Akumal was nothing short of spectacular. We enjoyed the accomodations, as there was ample room for everyone, but not excessive. The housekeeper was kind enough to do our dishes, which made it feel more like a vacation. The groundskeepers were kind and patient with our children. We loved being 10 feet from the pool and 50 yards from the beach. You can't get that at an all-inclusive! We definitely hope to return.

Beautiful house in a fun area
We very much enjoyed our stay in the villa. The house was perfect for the 5 of us and was quite comfortable. We also enjoyed walking into Akumal for meals and minor shopping. The only way it could be improved is if the beach was better. I had been under the impression that there was more of a sandy beach within walking distance. That may have been my misunderstanding. Overall, a great house.

Great space/location/amenities combo
Great villa, great location, perfect for family week trip in warmth. Stayed in this same complex (different villa) and came back for second year (both trips in February). Weather is consistently warm (83 hi / 72 lo) and little to no rain. Perfect for family (5 adults and 1 child), pool, small beach, good snorkeling right off shore, nearby Akumal playa has guaranteed sea turtles within 50-100 feet of shore. We did rent a car each time and found that gave us a lot of flex to get groceries at larger stores and go to multiple locations without having to arrange shuttles etc.

Nice stay - modern and relaxed.
We stayed in Akumal for 10 days in February and had a very nice time. The place was very nice and matched the picture. Everything worked well in the unit. There was lots of space for our three kids, my wife and I, and my father. The kitchen is well equipped with everything we needed. The master bedroom upstairs was really nice and little away from the rest of the house if you needed to get away (too bad for us our kids took it over). The air conditioning was very powerful so after coming home from a hot outing the place was cool in minutes. The staff on site were friendly and helpful. They took great care of the grounds and pool. Our correspondence online with the owner/manager was good. She provided us with a welcome package that was pretty helpful in getting us settled. Other guests in the complex we talked to were friendly with a mix of families and retired couples. Our kids enjoyed the pool multiple times a day. The property has about 15 to 20 other units but only 4 are like this one which front onto the pool. There isn't an ocean view from the unit but about 100 steps will take you to the waterfront. Immediately in front of the property is rocky but a short walk (100 metres or 300 feet) down the beech brought us to the sandy part of the beach. The snorkeling out front was good for us. There were a few places to eat within a short walk but the main 'centre' of Akumal is a 30 minute walk away. We rented a car and used it every day for short outings as there were plenty of other things to do within 15 to 30 minute drive. We hit the big grocery stores in Tulum for our main shopping but were able to supplement for the local (very small) grocery stores. The neighbouring property (not in the same complex) was a bit loud a few nights as they were having a wedding. I believe it is set up to host large groups. It wasn't over the top loud but you knew they were there. Overall we had a nice time and everything went well.
