First, the pros:
beautiful views
lovely property
2 (!) pools
Friendly and efficient staff

We liked the location on the northern edge of Half Moon Bay. It was tranquil. The staff was just great. Friendly, they looked after us better than expected. One of the pools was a plunge pool, which was colder than the sun pool. On a hot day, it was a welcome respite.

Cons:
Climate control does not adequately cool the entire unit.
The furniture was very uncomfortable.

While the unit had a single split cooling unit in the bedroom, it was not sufficient to cool the entire unit. Despite our efforts to keep the temperature below 90 degrees F, it was a challenge.

The furniture, including a concrete couch with foam cushions and a folding futon, was not the most comfortable. The dining area, with a dinette set and 2 chairs, was also showing signs of wear. We found it difficult to find a comfortable spot to relax for more than 20 minutes.

Incredible View of Half Moon Bay!! Property clean, well organized, kitchen well stocked. View was amazing! Just around the corner from several restaurants, Ya Kul Cenote in very quiet low traffic end of Akumal Neighborhood. Great little beach area infront of condos. Easy water access, bring your water shoes, its a little bit of a rocky start. Neighbors were friendly, staff helpful - a fantastic experience.

we were very happy with our accommodations. The only problems were the oven did not work, but it was replaced the day before we left so the next tenants should be happy. One other thing was there was no way to plug up the sink to wash dishes. Otherwise we loved it.

Awesome views, amazing snorkeling, no huge piles of sargassum, friendly people, full kitchen for any meals, walking distance to restaurants and a small grocery store and Yal-Ku lagoon, both a cool and a heated pool. Suggestion: go to the smaller south entrance of Yal-Ku (Snorkeling and Lagoon) and NOT the north (Riviera Maya). You can still swim in the same entire lagoon area. But the snorkeling is actually better at the south end anyway. No food is served at the south end, but you can bring a lunch, walk back to your condo, or walk to Morningstar for lunch.

The property was well maintained. Location was great as we had no Saragossa grass in front of our beach. The unit is dated but the view is spectacular. Would recommend if you can handle air conditioning in bedroom only.

Hi Christine, Thank you for your review. La Iguana is certainly a classic in Akumal and one of the top 3 condominiums during the warmer months when beach conditions on Half Moon Bay are not as great as the fall and winter.

This is our 5th time staying at Half Moon Bay and Akumal still remains a tranquil and scenic location to either stay for a while (lots of great restaurants within walking/biking distance) or to use as your base to explore the rest of the Mayan Riviera and Yucatan Peninsula. La Iguana offers great snorkelling right off the back yard as well a quiet beach front for chilling. We love to rent a car to make sure we visit some amazing cenotes that are close by as well as several Mayan ruins within doable driving distances. Visit and then come back for more and more. Paradise never gets boring!

This was a great location to be away from the seaweed. Had great snorkeling right out our door.
The only things that we didn't like about the condo were minor, but did effect the feeling of being cared for. We only had one very small bar of soap and one packet of shampoo upon arrival and were never given any more even though we ran out. The two wash clothes were only changed out every three days. In fact, they finally took the two dirty and left one clean. Most condos do provide enough coffee and condiments for the first morning. There was none. We even had to buy a box of filters. Otherwise the condo was very clean and comfortable. The outside maintenance men were friendly and kept the property spotless. We'd stay here again, just maybe in a different unit.

After along tiring and somewhat stressful journey from Oregon, we arrived in Paradise. I appreciate d the measures that Akumal has in place for Covid. It felt safer than the states. Our condo was beautiful and the snorkeling was peaceful. Sad to leave but I live Oregon. Plan on going back next year.

Accurately represented, clean, right on the water, air-conditioning works beautifully in the bedroom and the fans are fine for during the day. Bed was comfortable. We weren't there long enough to use the kitchen but it looked as if all the necessary elements were there. Only challenge for us was we didn't have a car (too many reviews of police corruption and them stopping you in order to take bribes which made us hesitate), so the distance into town was a little longer than we thought. The taxi's have prices posted that are crazy expensive (200 pesos or about $11 for under 2 miles and 5 minutes) so if you can rent a bike for $8 for 24 hours, that helped in terms of transportation. Just keep in mind they don't have lights, we used our cell phones as lights to get home. Would definitely rent again and maybe rent a car locally. The problems seem to be mostly around Cancun.

alk into the condo an realize the pictures do not do it justice. Magnificent! ...and all of the concerns about seaweed do not apply. The unique corner of bay steers it far away. The security at the bay entrance and throughout the complex is excellent. Hectors assistance in getting bags and groceries into condo. Perfectly manicured beach and grounds. Things I would do again: Stop by Walmart (Playacar) enroute and stock the fridge/ pick up water shoes. Dinner or drinks every night at La Lunita. Hire Ahmed (at La Lunita) to do an every other day excursion (cenotes, ruins, Cozumel, hidden restaurants). Drift-snorkel everyday from private beach. Stayed at a four star resort near airport the last night in Mexico....but longing to be back at La Iguana, Akumal.

Amazing view! Located at a quiet corner of Akumal, this place has a breathtaking view of the ocean and a private beach at the doorstep. The private beach has comfortable chairs and there are very few people. The beach has no seaweed issue at all, unlike other beaches in the area. The room is large and clean and the staff is very hospitable. I rented a bike to get around and the Akumal village is very beautiful for bike-riding.

Greatly enjoyed our time at the condo. Met some other wonderful travelers during our stay, but also enjoyed the privacy of the property at the very end of the bay. Great views and snorkeling out front. Waves were a bit intense during our stay so snorkeling was challenging but saw lots of reef life when we did go out. Nearby La Buena Vida restaurant was a favorite as they had great prices & portions and take credit cards. Half Moon Bay is a gem; chill, relaxed vibe compared to the busy Akumal Playa (within walking distance though!). Daily maid service was appreciated as well. Thanks!

An amazing place to relax and enjoy Half Moon Bay. Great snorkeling just steps outside, excellent beachside relax spots, cool iguanas sunning themselves with you. Take a bike down to the corner store, stock up on Rum, juices, and ice, and just hang out! Everything is very close by car, bike, or golfcart, including Akumal Bay beaches, tours, restaurants, Yal-Ku lagoon, all without ever getting in a car. Hector was an amazing host and helped us out in many ways. We'll be back!

La Iguana #4 and the whole team at Akumal Direct are the best!! The view is incredible, the maid (Ana) was very kind and willing to work with our "work remotely" schedule, and Kat of Akumal Direct found us a place to do laundry when we were all out of options :) from our window, we could see turtles and a ray swimming through the Bay!! The snorkeling and private beach really cannot be beat. Really, we loved our stay here and would like to come back someday when all the corona crazy has died down. Thanks so much everyone!

The view is amazing and the sound of the ocean at night was exactly what I expecting. This is the place to go for a secluded quiet safe and relaxing trip. Check in was a breeze and everything was provided to make the stay comfortable. The only issue we had was our wifi was off and on and the ac is only in the bedroom. There is a cool breeze at night if you leave the windows open. Thank you for the accommodations and would definitely stay here again next time I visit Akumal!

This condo was perfect for what my husband and I needed. It had an incredible view, and friendly staff. The condo came with snorkeling gear so that you could walk out to the bay and swim with some cool fish. The place was about a half hour walk from town which had stores for basic groceries, atm machine, tourist info & yummy restaurants. La Iguana allowed us to rent bikes for $7 usd a day per bike, which we used to our advantage and rode to town everyday. In town, there is a beautiful beach which is $5 usd admission, or you can go through our FAV restaurant Lol Ha. You just have to buy a drink or food item and you get access to the beach for the day. While it was one of the furthest places to stay from town, we enjoyed the bike rides because it allowed us to burn off some of the drinking calories ;) overall our trip was amazing. Hector at La Iguana was very helpful and friendly!! We can’t wait to come back!

The views of this place are simply amazing. If you don’t like tourist places and are looking for a more private place, this is your place! Akumal is truly magical. We had everything we needed, place was as described. We most definitely will come back to Akumal if we come back to the Quintana Roo region.

La Iguana #4 was my favorite Airbnb I’ve visited in Mexico! The pictures don’t capture the beauty of the panoramic ocean view and amenities. Highlights: -The view! Gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. -the pools have tons of shade! This was a bonus for me because I can’t be in the sun all of the time. -there are restaurants and stores walking distance. We loved La Lunita and La Buena Vida and Turtle Bay Cafe. -we got to hang out with iguanas LOL. -although it’s a condo complex we felt like we had a lot of privacy. -some of the reviews said there was a great snorkeling right in front. Unfortunately The reefs we found were dead. But if you swim over to the right towards the red buoy there’s good snorkeling there. There was a storm coming so there were a lot of waves that was another deterrent to our snorkeling, but I’m sure that won’t always be the case. -The property was very well-maintained and the staff was very responsive to any needs.

We own this property, so we're a little biased! But, what we liked about it to make us want to own there were:1) location - close to lagoon, and on Half Moon Bay, but secluded at end of the road, and is very quiet, without traffic or people walking past on the beach2) Amenities - the two pools are great, and the beach area is relaxing and welcoming. We have appreciated that addition of the gym and the convenience store as well.3) Privacy. No one is driving past our property on their way to other places, and no one is walking past you on the beach all day long. The property is big enough that you can enjoy relaxing on the beach and not be surrounded by others, or be subjected to listening to their conversations or music when you would rather have quiet and solitude.

We spent a little more than a month in Mexico starting at the Grand Mayan Riviera and ending at a private house on the beach on Isla Mujeres. We only spent a week at Akumal La Iguana Condominiums Unit #4 on the north end of Half Moon Bay, but it was our favorite place on our whole trip. We loved everything about La Iguana and the owner was nice enough to even leave his internet password so that we could use the internet. It had the beach, the view, the furnishings, everything. The owner even left snorkel equipment there for our use.
