Budget-Friendly Condos on Half Moon Bay in Akumal

While the white powder beaches and turquoise waters of Riviera Maya attract numerous movie stars and millionaires, Half Moon Bay is one of those paradise-like destinations that allows you to experience the best of the Caribbean and stay within your budget.

The Playa Blanca condos are an excellent example of a great bang for your buck. Located in North Akumal overlooking Half Moon Bay, it offers excellent snorkeling and beachcombing. (remember your water shoes!)

The smart layout of Playa Blanca makes the maximum out of stunning sea views in every beachfront condo. The beach level units come with a private patio and provide direct access to the white powder beach. The second floor condos have an ocean view terrace, perfect for enjoying your coffee in the morning and taking advantage of the refreshing Caribbean breeze. While the penthouse units boast the most panoramic views of Half Moon Bay and come with a private terrace as well.

The open-concept layout of the living spaces, tasteful décor, and extensive glass sliding doors facing the Caribbean create an atmosphere of home, airiness, and peace. It’s easy to picture yourself discussing the plans for the day with your family, preparing cheesy quesadillas in the well-stocked kitchen, or sharing a meal in the dining area with the Caribbean and Half Moon Bay as your backdrop.

More Vacation Options for Small and Large Groups

Depending on the size of your party, you have the choice of renting two and three bedroom condos. This means that you get to enjoy the best of Playa Blanca for less should you only need two bedrooms!

The highlight of the Playa Blanca condos is, without a doubt, the Master Bedroom. Featuring a comfortable king-size bed, ample storage space, a chic master bathroom, and louvered windows that fold back to welcome plenty of light and reveal magnificent ocean views. The guest bedroom also faces the sea and is furnished with one single and one double bed and a private bathroom.

If you have more than 5 people traveling with you, there is another bedroom located on the tranquil garden side of the Playa Blanca it comes with a private bathroom, a king bed, and a single trundle bed. (see Amenities section below to choose the condo that fits best for you).

It’s truly a bargain to stay at this beautiful beach condo in one of the most picturesque areas of Akumal and have all the commodities nearby. The famous La Buena Vida beach bar is just 2-minute walk away. While Central Akumal tourist services, Lol ha beach bar and restaurant and gorgeous Yal Ku lagoon are 3 minutes’ drive away from Playa Blanca Condominiums.

So make a smart decision and inquire about Playa Blanca Condominiums and save yourself a lot of vacation-planning time and money!

Half Moon Bay is a beautiful location and Playa Blanca is a great condo. Waking up to a sunrise over the bay was a wonderful way to start the day. We enjoyed snorkeling, walks on the beach, and using bikes to explore Akumal Pueblo. There were plenty of restaurants within walking distance and we had some amazing meals. Plus, it was easy to catch a collectivo if we wanted to explore other towns.
The staff at the condo were friendly and very helpful. We’ve stayed at this place twice now and would highly recommend it to others.

We enjoyed our stay in playablanca #7. The condo had all the items a renter could need. A beautiful view from the top floor deck, the sound of the waves was so relaxing. The place is walk able to a few restaurants with in 5-10 min and the center of town in 15-20 depending on your speed. We did not need a vehicle. The concierge set us up with great transportation to and from the airport.
We had a little trouble with the hot water on our first day but the facilities personnel were able to fix it right away. Condo #7 is tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Lots of space to hang out inside or on the deck as well as the beach palaas.
Our only negative was that the neighbors were smokers and when we were both outside it was not pleasant for us due to the cigarette and cigar smoke. I would recommend this vacation rental for sure!

We have stayed in Akumal years before. We were happy to see it had retained it’s charm. Tulum is another matter. The condo was fantastic. The views, the access, the daily cleaning service, the property management were all wonderful. We had some issues with the refrigerator, they were prompt at sending repairmen to resolve. Being three doors down from the fun La Buena Vida restaurant was a bonus, especially since the seaweed was pretty awful and we could have lunch and utilize their pool. This is a great place to stay to snorkel with turtles, in the lagoon, quick drive to caves, cenotes, zip lining, monkeys, Mayan ruins. I hope Akumal resists the resort push from the rest of the riviera maya, this place is a true gem!

The three bedrooms and three bathrooms were adequate for our group (an adult couple, an infant, a toddler, and a single adult).The two bedrooms/two bathrooms at the front of the unit became the family wing and the master bedroom became the princess suite. It was very easy to be together or be separate as needed. A very short walk to both La Buena Vida and La Lunita made for easy mealtimes.

Two full days that we did not have a car. They are not affiliated with Akumal Direct but were recommended. We are still waiting to hear from them to see if they will credit us in any way. But beside the car issue, everything was great. We now know why so many people return to Akumal year after year.

It's not that you wake up out of a dream and find yourself in paradise, but that is about what happened. My wife and I were lucky enough to be great friends with a couple who have stayed in Akumal several times over the years. They have always been a little on the adventurous side so when they told us stories about their stay we were always transfixed. So when they decided to renew their twenty fifth year wedding vows on a beach somewhere then Akumal was the place for them. It didn't take to much arm twisting. So with their encouragement and our need for a vacation, my wife and I packed up and headed to Akumal. Since we arrived in late from the airport and didn't get into the condo until dark, it wasn't until the morning that they dream became a reality. Our third floor condo had one of the most beautiful ocean views I have ever seen. With the sliding door open you could hear the waves and feel the wonderful ocean breezes. The unit was beautifully decorated and had all the amenities you could want (kitchen, TV, Stereo, colorful furnishings). I thought it was pretty funny when my wife initially complained about the noise of the waves but then realized this is why people pay so much to live on the beach. What I liked about Akumal the most was that whatever you wanted to do you could do it. Whether it was swimming, fishing, hiking, visiting the cenotes or just relaxing, it was all available. Our friends all got together, and with a local band we walked down the beach to where they had their ceremony. It was great.I definitely think we will be back. I would love stay in the same condo. This time I think we would do a little more relaxing.

Feb. 2008. We stayed in Playa Blanca #7 for 3 weeks. We had also stayed in #7 in Feb. 2006 for 3 weeks. This unit has a great balcony, lots of room for the table, chairs and hammock. Being on the 3rd floor it has a wonderful view of the beaches and out to the water. The unit has an open kitchen, living room, dining room layout so it was great for having the whole family for dinner. This year we had 3 couples and 2 small children and it worked fine. The railing on the balcony is not child proof (2 rails only - see picture). The maids were excellant. They were there 7 days a week and everything was spotless.The location is an easy walk to the Lagoon (10 min) and about a 20 min walk to the store, shops and market. There are several good resturants within a 5-10 min. walk.They are making some inprovements to the roof top area and it was a great place to watch the lunar eclispe.The kitchen has most things for cooking simple meals. There is no oven, however there is a microwave. Management was fine although we missed Hector. Danny is working on his English and I'm sure it will improve with time. One person in our group spoke fluent Spanish which was helpful when we had some specific questions. This unit is well priced and a bargin for 3 couples or a larger family.We made our arrangements through Akumal Direct and they did a great job. We were coordinating 4 families (grandparents, parents and grandkids) for this vacation and they made it work well at reasonable cost.
