We had a real nice time. It was the perfect getaway and we really needed it. Everything worked out well. You have a great place…let me know if you want to sell it.
Also, having the car worked out very well. We also took a side trip down to the Grand Cenote (Tulum) as well as some of the beaches down there. That’s a beautiful area too. Other than that trip, we pretty much ate at all the local spots. I liked the shrimp tacos at La Buena Vida and the snorkeling was great (we did that the most) at Half Moon and Yal Ku. It made my trip when I saw and followed a turtle!
Thanks again for all the extra guidance.

Hello Aileen!
Thank-you for asking. We had a wonderful time. A fairy-tale vacation. Your condo is lovely and suited us perfectly. It is very well-supplied
and I appreciated the plastic cups and plates as we have two boys age 6 and 8. We enjoyed the breeze from the ocean (some nights the blasting wind!) and the incredible view. Andrea was very nice and did a super job for us. If we can save up our pesos we hope to be back soon! Thanks again, Tina

Hi Aileen,
We have been to Akumal about 8-9 times and your condo is by far the best place we have stayed. We totally agree with all the positive comments other's in your guest book have made.The views from your balcony ( all 3)are probably the best views in all of Akumal.We loved the peace and tranquility of watching the sunset everynight. Going to sleep to the sound of the waves and waking to the bird calls in the morning made us feel like we were in our own little paradise!
One of the restaurants not menioned by some of the others is Lucy's. It's just a small place behind the grocery store but it has the BEST shrimp tacos and homemade ice cream---yummy!
The one tour we would recommend is the Sian Ka'an Biosphere national preserve down by Tulum. You can book the tour right at the travel place in Akumal. Anyone interested in ecology will love this place.
Thank you so much Aileen for sharing your home with us, anyone who stays here will NOT be disappointed.

We really enjoyed our stay in Akumal. The condo was very clean and tastefully decorated. The location is great. Not far from the village, yet very private. I would recomend staying here to anyone. Great food, snorkeling, and fun in general. Thanks Aileen.

Yes you were on my mind to give a call to. But we just returned to Snow and employees not showing up for work and such.
Your place was wonderful! What a view, spent most of our evening time on the patio.
Snorkeling was great everywhere we went, especially in Akumal bay with the turtles and barracudas.
We went out to Coba, which was fantastic and then to 3 Mayan cenotes close by Coba. This was quite an experience
Climbing down into these caves and swimming in the beautiful clear water.
We went to Aktun chen and Tulum as well.
But the dinners were the best, especially at La Lunita! I speak Spanish and a person came out to our table, it was the chef; we talked about the way he makes his sauces, butter, salsa etc. Just as we were having dessert he sent another (but different) plate of food out to my table. Wow! And the last night we were there we went back, had another long conversation about his cooking ( I think I called him an artist in the cocina) and after eating my plate of food he sent me another plate of 2 types of langostinos. Lucky and fat me!
I have a recipe I am going to send him in return.
So in a nutshell we had a wonderful time and can’t wait to come back.
Thank you so much for your gracious offer of your place, it really made our vacation awesome. I think La Sirena is one of the nicest condos on the beach.

La Sierena Condo in Akumal/Half moon bay is absolutely awesome! The view from the condo is fabulous thru the giant picture windows. Has a large veranda that I can spend a whole day on.(PLUS two more smaller private verandas). Waking up in the morning to the most gorgeous clear blue water view of the Caribbean Bay is fabulous. Unbelievable!
Simply walk down the stairs to snorkel. La Seirena has perfect swimming/snorkeling areas. Calm waters. Pool on site is very nice, even has a lap pool.
The apartment decor is authentic and extremely comfortable. Very clean. Kitchen has everything you need and MORE. Akumal town is such a fun getaway. Plenty of good eateries and a grocery store I loved. Plenty of shops for great souvenirs. I will definetly return. |

LaSirena #10 was a very relaxing place for my family (boy, age 11 and girl, age 8) to stay. We love the location which is ideally private, yet very accessible to great snorkling (half moon bay), pool, restaurants and pleasant walks. I have placed this unit with its location as my favorite place to go in Mexico. I can't wait to go back.
Thank you Aileen and LaSirena staff for being great hosts. |

Hello Aileen,
We arrived in Akumal today. The condo is beautiful - Thank you again for sharing your home. The view is spectacular and the weather is delightful. We spent the evening on the balcony and look forward to exploring tomorrow. Hector was very helpful and is obviously very proud of this fabulous place!
Couldn't pull up the picture you sent -on Villas Marlin, but will see the real thing on Saturday.
I can see why you love this place!
