Playa Caribe 8 is a third-floor condo in Akumal’s central Playa Caribe tower, designed for guests who want sweeping views and stylish comfort. This middle unit boasts a sunrise-perfect terrace, two ensuite bedrooms with private balconies, and space for up to five guests.

The primary suite includes a king bed, ensuite bath, and balcony with ocean views. The guest bedroom offers a queen bed plus a single sofa bed and private bath, making it versatile for couples, families, or friends. Both bedrooms and the open living areas are cooled with central AC.

The living room flows onto a large furnished terrace overlooking Half Moon Bay, where you can enjoy 180-degree views of the Caribbean. The kitchen is fully equipped with a breakfast bar and modern appliances, while colorful décor inspired by the sea frames the dining area.

Guests enjoy daily housekeeping, beach towels, purified water, parking, and concierge support. Shared amenities include a pool, BBQ grill, loungers, and outdoor shower.

Half Moon Bay is a secure and quiet neighborhood with coral reef and calm waters, excellent for snorkeling. Yal Ku Lagoon, Akumal Bay, and restaurants are walkable. For exploring ruins, cenotes, or nearby towns, a rental car or private driver is recommended. Playa Caribe is one of Akumal’s original condominiums, renowned for service and location.

Playa Caribe's location offers both convenience and privacy. It's steps away from the festive Buena Vida bar and restaurant as well as the romantic seaside eatery La Lunita. The popular Yal-Ku snorkeling lagoon is also a short walk. Half Moon Bay is a quieter alternative to the busier Akumal bay, and its white-sand beach never feels crowded.

KINDLY NOTE: South winds may bring Sargasso Seaweed to some beaches throughout the Caribbean, including the Rivera Maya. While the situation is hard to predict for each specific week and area, we would like you to be aware as there is the potential to impact the beach and water entry.

The Riviera Maya is full of natural beauty, places to explore and opportunities for outdoor activities. We have a great list of activities and adventures completely unaffected by the arrival of sargasso that we would love to share with you. There is so much to see and do in this special place, we know that you will have an amazing and memorable vacation!

Nearby Activities in Akumal

Along the Mexican Riviera Maya, on the Yucatan Peninsula, you'll find the coastal resort of Akumal. This resort town in Quintana Roo wraps around the northern side of Akumal Bay, and it lies just south of Half Moon Bay. You won't find a better place than an Akumal beach house if you are looking for the perfect Mexican diving and beach destination.

Things To Do in Akumal

Akumal is famous for its diving and snorkeling hotspots. The warm waters are rich in marine life, guarded by coral reefs. Many dive spots offer a variety of sea life, from endangered green sea turtles to stingrays and barracudas. Half Moon bay has a large curved beach of white sand and snorkeling spots just off the beach, and the waters are welcoming to swimmers, kayakers, and paddle boarders. Just north of Half Moon Bay is Yal-ku Lagoon, an inlet with a mix of salt and fresh water that is home.. read more

"Amazing Vacation
The condo's description and previous reviews were spot on. Nicely furnished and stocked with everything we needed. The view of the entire Half Moon Bay was beyond beautiful! Only downside for us (I will learn to check in the future) is the condo was located on the third floor and the building did not have an elevator. Due to the time we arrived, late afternoon, there were no staff available to assist us with our heavy luggage (my husband and I are over 65 yrs old). Regardless, we will definitely rent this condo in the future!"

"9 Days in Akumal
The most evident aspect of Play Caribe was the fantastic breathtaking view. The payout to the condo was excellent. The only issue with the condo was the lack of a comfortable place to sit. The couch was very uncomfortable. The staff was fantastic, starting with communication as we went through the process to the housekeepers who cleaned our condo daily. Recommend"

"Beautiful condo with fantastic location on half moon bay
Our family of four had a lovely time, greatly enjoying the properties, comfortable accommodations, thoughtful, amenities, and fantastic location on half Moon Bay within short, walking distance of several great restaurants and a short five minute drive to a dive shop and additional shopping and restaurants. We highly recommend eating at jungle Café, la Lunita, and AK Restaurant. It was also super convenient to have a small market literally across the street from the property to buy groceries and drinks. Being on half Moon Bay was also much more private and quieter than staying on Akumal Bay while still being very accessible to all the amenities of Akumal Bay and Plaza."

"Private & Relaxing
Such a beautiful beachfront location with restaurants and local shops within walking distance. We wanted a relaxing vacation and it was just that. We golfed at a course only a few miles away, swam, ate delicious food and rested. The customer service and communication was excellent. Would go back again!"

"Great holiday
We took our 2 granddaughters to Mexico for their first time. They loved Playa Caribe and its location. Our fourth visit to Playa Caribe and we will be back next year with other grandchildren"

"Absolutely Fabulous
We talked to so many people and saw different properties online and in person and feel we made the best choice. Unobstructed ocean view is right - we could not get tired of this view and loved #8 because its balcony on the third floor jutted out. Kitchen set up - excellent though would have loved a better barbecue or grill on site or in the suite. Balcony - huge with room for lounger and table and chairs though would recommend upgrade from white plastic furniture. Loved pineapple, coffee and filtered water on arrival. Golf cart great but not necessary unless you have mobility issues - we rented bikes or walked the 2nd week. Car recommended if you want to visit places every second day with family."

"March 29 - April 5th Visit
If we could take Playa Caribe #8 with us on each vacation we was lovely. The only negative is the sargassum that came in early, but that has nothing to do with the property. We had a wonderful time."
Apr 14, 2023 - KEITH W., Wichita, KS



"Wonderful Vacation
The room was very nice, views were top notch! The room actually came with more than we knew such as jug water service, which was nice. It actually also came with daily maid service which we weren't expecting, also nice. The sargassum wasn't amazing, but what do you do. It wasn't too bad. The level fluctuated every day. Once you got out into the water to snorkel, you could easily avoid it. It was still better than akumal playa for snorkeling I thought. We were here last 14 years ago and then I would say Akumal playa hands down, but times have changed and it's gotten really crowded over there. This bay was very quiet and we saw a lot of cool sealife just outside the condo. I would recommend gold cart rental during your stay, it really makes getting around easier and nicer, especially with kids."

"Playa Caribe Condo 8
Wonderful place and people. The staff should get an 11 out of 10. This property is beautifully maintained. We were on the third floor so had wonderful views of the bay. The condo itself was clean and neat, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The living area was a bit thin and hard to lounge around in the evenings, it could use a couch or two.

"An incredible vacation experience
An incredible vacation experience. We rented unit number eight. There were four of us. My husband and I and my son and his guest. Both bedrooms had their own beautiful bathrooms and private balcony overlooking the ocean. From the bed to the water was approximately 40 feet! Every night we fell asleep listening to the waves in the wind. It was magnificent The town is full of fantastic restaurants. Several you can walk to. The beach in front is rocky and had a lot of seaweed but it was beautiful and serene. Bring water shoes it’s rocky. The pool is small but refreshing. I wish they had a ladder or stairs to help you get out of the pool. It’s harder for older people. Also there is no elevator and we had to climb up three flights of stairs to get into our condo. But once you got up it there The view was worth it. The condo was well stocked. You could cook a meal in the kitchen all of the utensils and pans were there. Overall it was an incredible vacation. We met several people who had returned to Akumal for several years and we could definitely see why. "

"Wonderful Vacation!
We have been coming to Akumal for 20+ years and this is the first time we have stayed in this condo. It was amazing in every way. The views were magnificent of the bay. Loved swimming in the pool. I would not recommend the unit to anyone with mobility issues as it is on the 3rd floor. "

"Excellent choice
We are a couple and spent 3 weeks in unit #8. The view as you walk in the door is spectacular. We enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen, there is a toaster oven to replace not having an oven. The bathrooms have views to the sea and we loved the sound of the surf night and day. We “worked from home” and there were internet issues which were being resolved, otherwise was a perfect spot to work from the dining table or island or covered deck. We loved the accommodating staff, the unit was always spotless, water jug replaced when needed, and building water filtered and potable. Need water shoes for easy entry off this beachfront. It was windy and wavy while we were there so snorkelling and swimming not experienced as easily as expected (still great). Excellent location for us, two easily walkable restaurants by road or beach, La Buena Vida and La Lunita, charming and excellent food. We rented bikes for the duration and I loved taking the ride into town. Seeing the turtles at Akumal Beach with a guide is out of this world. Yal-Ku lagoon nearby for snorkelling. The corner store across from Playa Caribe had just about everything we might have needed for a shorter stay, including alcohol and fridge foods, some fruit and snacks. We had a car but Augustin or the property manager was always on-site and quick to help with anything. Pleasant surprises were the unit has a cabinet full of games, and a cooler and beach chairs and umbrella which we could take to other beaches for a picnic. The pool area is well maintained and beach front chairs plentiful. This area is quiet. You hear other guests by the pool sometimes, as expected, but overall surf, stars, sunrises, and a comfortable relaxed atmosphere. Wish we had brought binoculars to scan the sea life off the deck. The size of the unit accommodated us well and our daughter when she came to visit. We are grateful for their attention to detail and would return to this location in a heartbeat."

"#8 is Delightful!
We completely enjoyed the view and the accomodations of Playa Caribe #8. The casa is well appointed with everything you need to cook, enjoy the beach and relax! The air conditioning at night was great for sleeping. The bed is comfortable. I really can't think of any about the casa I would change. The beach out front is a little skinny, but the deck chairs and cover from the sun is great. The staff was very responsive and helpful."
