Phenomenal
I’ve stayed in Akumal multiple times at hotels and wanted to try going vacation home rental for our family. We LOVED spending time at the pool here. The rooms are spacious and the daily cleaning service was a definite bonus. The beach chairs and coolers were a great addition. I would recommend to put curtains in the windows in the upstairs bedroom that face the road and driveway. You can see clearly in there at night! 24 hr security was great and Jose the handyman was lovely! We plan to be back !

Simply Amazing
Spent a wonderful week in Akumal. The listing (and photos) are accurate. House sits along a rocky/reef shoreline along the bay. Although there’s no direct beach access, the location allowed for quiet, uninterrupted, and private views of the water. Magical! The kitchen is well stocked. The beds (and sheets) comfortable. With ample windows and private decks, there is plenty of sunlight/water views for all. After booking through VRBO, the owner’s property management company connected me with a concierge—where I booked airport transfers, drivers for excursions, and a private chef. The process was very easy and the service was consistently excellent (but the concierge service pricing felt more like Miami prices rather than Riviera Maya). There are two staff members who work in/around the house each day, keeping the house, pool, and surrounding grounds in good condition. The kitchen is well stocked with pots/pans and storage containers as well as appliances—everything you will need. The living room has built in concrete benches/couches with cushions. If there’s a critique, it’s probably that their arrangement is not the best (but it is adequate) for spending together in that space and watching TV or working on a puzzle. There are plenty of restaurants in walking distance—with info provided on site. The house has security—but I think that I saw the person/people maybe for a combined 45min over the week (and I looked for them). That said, the whole neighborhood felt safe (and there’s mostly monitored access at the point where cars enter neighborhood). I wouldn’t hesitate to book this place again. Oh…the pool is large and spacious. For those new to the area, Akumal is about 80min drive from Cancun airport and about 25-30min from Tulum. Great location!

Beautiful views!
The views are amazing from this home. All three bedrooms had ocean views. The master was outstanding with two decks to chose from. It’s a bit worn but the staff was attentive and did a nice job keeping things clean and tidy. The kitchen had everything we needed and more and we cooked frequently. The water heater broke while we were there and fixed that same evening! The manager was on top of it! It was very windy and rainy while we were there and rain snuck through cracks and into the house but the tile floors were easy to mop. All in all, a lovely stay.

Great time at Akumal
We had a good time at our Akumal villa. Casa Nicte-Ha is beautiful and Mary, Angel, Jose and Santos are wonderful hosts, always taking care of our needs. Unfortunately, we hadn't realized this is rainy season and 50% of our vacation was indoors due to the frequent torrential downpours. Also, Quintana Roo is being affected by sargazo, a type of seaweed, that accumulated on the beaches of Halfmoon Bay and also, to a lesser extent, on the main Akumal beach, as well as the rest of the beaches in the area. Some areas were worse than others-- so badly affected that the smell of rotting seaweed is untolerable. However, I have to say that due to the location of Nicte Ha house--which is fronted by a rocky shoreline, not sand--the appearance and smell from the sargazo didn't affect us. But on the negative side, due to the frequent, intense rain, water came in nearly every room in the house in every single room, and we needed to use all the towels to try to keep the house dry. This was completely unexpected. But overall we were very pleased with the house, the service, and our stay.

Private Oasis!!
This house was perfect for our 6 adults for my mom's birthday getaway! We spent most of our time at the pool, in the hammocks or holding on to the seats on the rooftop patio - what a great view! The intense breeze coming off the ocean to the backyard was a wonderful relief from the sun and heat. The location was ideal for walking to shops or restaurants, while staying distanced from all the other touristy areas. The private beach area in front of the house gave us an isolated feeling. We loved having the housekeeping and pool guy come by every day to keep the house and yard tidy. We would recommend adding some non-slip material to the top 1-2 steps in the pool as nearly everyone in our group slipped getting in at some point during our stay. The house was very hot when we arrived but we managed to get the rooms cool enough in the evenings to sleep well. They have mobile fans throughout the house for extra assistance. The management company arranged for us to have a doctor come to our villa on our last day to provide our required rapid covid testing to return to the US. Super easy, convenient and the results were quick! Highly recommend this location, we would love to come back to this house again FOR SURE! We would rent a car on our next stay so that we didnt have to rely on public transportation as much, but 10/10 for this house!!

Amazing Stay at Nicte-Ha
My wife and I decided on this house because I stayed at the neighboring house (Casa del Mar) which is owned by the same person 5 years ago and had a great experience. I was not surprised that our stay at Nicte-Ha was amazing because of prior experience. Location - The house is far enough away from Akumal beach to create a sense of calm, but close enough to easily walk for drinks at Lol-Ha or La Buena Vida for happy hour. We spent half day visiting Tulum (~45min south) but otherwise spent our entire time in Akumal. This house could be used as a great home base to travel throughout the area, but we decided on a more relaxing vacation (plus the house/pool is so nice you don't really want to leave). Cleanliness - Jose and Maria do an excellent job taking care of the property everyday both inside and out. Amenities - The kitchen was fully stocked and we made breakfast every day before venturing out. The house had everything you could want for a beach vacation (beach chairs, coolers, beach towels, etc.). We spent many hours everyday soaking in the sun by the pool and back patio area. The house was very spacious (we were only two people) but could easily accommodate a large family or multiple families. Security / Safety - We felt very safe the entire time (evening security on premise until sunrise). Akumal in general felt safe and we were comfortable walking 10 minutes back from dinner after a few drinks. The actual town of Akumal (across the bridge) felt safe as well and we ate a few lunches there. Attentiveness - We are pretty low maintenance travelers, but the property manager stopped by to see how everything was going. If there are any issues I am confident they would respond quickly. Jose is also around the property everyday and is great if you need anything. Negatives - There were no issues we had throughout our stay. The pool was a little chilly (as expected this time of year) but was very refreshing after baking in the sun. It is a tropical location so expect some small ants and other bugs (hardly noticeable and Maria cleans the place everyday). Overall - 9/10. I would certainly stay here again and would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a great spot in Akumal.

Perfect place! Great vacation.
We enjoyed our say very much. This was our third trip to Akumal. Casa Nicte Ha was the perfect place for us. Nicely located in Akumal, close to the beaches, diving, and cenotes. The house is nicely laid out. We had 10 in our party and we all found it very comfortable. Adrian our manager, the guards, and Jose who washed our cars were very friendly and helpful. Our one suggestion is to allow the renters to have access to the laundry to dry towels. After coming back from the cenotes, our towels were wet. We could not leave them outside because it was raining. Being able to dry them ourselves, we could have re-used and avoided not having dry towels due to the cleaners being off New Year’s day. I would highly recommend this place if you’re thinking about the Yucatan for a group vacation.

My family and another shared this space for seven nights in early April 2019. We do a lot of rentals for vacation in various places, and I think this was the best experience we have had with a place. It was clean, easy to get in and out of, the staff (both of them, every day) were amazing, the pool was cleaned daily and was amazing, the kitchen was well appointed, the bedrooms were generous. One thing to know is that the beach on Akumal bay is now a private beach as of January 2019 or so. I grew up coming to akumal and snorkeling in the bay, but it has been taken over by resorts, and is no longer accessable to the public for free. You appear to be able to get onto the beach, but for a price, and in dealing with a snorkeling guide. we spent some good time on Half moon bay beach, just a 7 minute walk away, but it is not as nice as akumal bay was. Go to La Buen Vida, a 5 minute walk away. This is a great ex-pat bar/restaurant on the beach with a pool for anyone. our kids loved it, and the food was reasonable, and they have tequila flights...you are walking home so why not. Check out the Turtle sanctuary beach, no services or anything, beacutiful beach, and get to the beach in tulum as well as the ruins there. Coba ruins in the jungle are great as well, 60 minute drive. All in all this was perfect, would highly recommend to anyone!

Gorgeous house with amazing views!
This house was so beautiful! There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep and live comfortably together for a week. All of the windows open up as sliders, allowing the breeze from the ocean to come right through the house and providing the most gorgeous view of the ocean, right in our backyard. A big thank you to the housekeeping staff, property security and grounds keeper. Everyone was very accommodating and even helped us to pick some fresh coconuts from a tree in our yard!

Beautiful home, amazing snorkeling, safe, beautiful community, and delicious restaurants!
This was an amazing vacation! This beautiful home is located in a lovely, safe community that provides everything you need for your vacation. There is plenty to do in Akumal, but it is very close to many other fun attractions too, including the ruins at Tulum and lots of cenotes. The snorkeling right off the beach at Half Moon Bay and Akumal Bay, both within easy walking distance, is breathtaking! We saw rays, sea turtles, beautiful coral, and countless fish. The house itself is gorgeous, with a well maintained pool and beautiful grounds. Everything we needed was there, and the staff helped with any questions that we had. Be sure to check out La Buena Vida restaurant which is a quick walk up the street. The food is great, and the atmosphere is superb! We hope to visit again someday!

Totally Amazing Villa - within walking distance of so much!!
We had the best time in Akamul and Nicte Ha was the perfect home base for all of our activities!! Angel, Mari and Jose were wonderful! The house was neat as a pin, the grounds were perfect and Angel checked in to see how things were going. We couldn't have been more pleased with the staff. It was wonderful having the pool at the end of the long day in the sun as well night swimming for the kids. Everyone really enjoyed hanging out at this beautiful pool. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the basic necessities (except food) you will want for nothing. The bedrooms have air conditioning. The beds are very comfortable. There are safes in each of the bedrooms. The 2 bedrooms upstairs have twin bunks in each room. The kids loved these! What the other reviews don't include is the most amazing bar just down the street called La Buena Vida. You should not miss this on your trip the food is amazing! They have a pool, it is right on Half Moon Bay and is maybe a 3 min walk from the house. So you can do some snorkling, get some lunch and a beer before heading home. Everything was great and we loved the charm of the house. Thank you!!

Wonderful Vacation Home! Super spacious for our family of 8!
We were very impressed with this lovely home. It was spacious with plenty of room to move around and even have some privacy if you needed. Loved all the windows providing us with spectacular views and enjoyed the sunrises and sunsets on the top deck. It was in good working condition, very clean and well equipped with all the necessities included-even some games for the kids! The pool provided us with lots of pleasurable moments. The staff were friendly and very accommodating. We appreciated being away from the main beach and all the noise.We loved walking on the rocky shore but the children missed having an actual sandy beach to play on. Other than that it was perfect. Thank-you for providing us with a memorable holiday!
