This sleek all-suite, all-inclusive resort dotted with pools and fire-pits occupies a plum spot on a beach that was listed among TripAdvisor®’s top 10 in Mexico, and fittingly – given that ‘Akumal’ means ‘place of the turtles’ – it’s a prime place for sea-turtle spotting and snorkelling within view of these spellbinding creatures just metres offshore (courtesy goggles provided).
There’s all manner of fun ways to spend time together at the resort, including bike tours, meet-the-chef sessions, Spanish and dance classes, and water sports. But there are plenty of enticements to simply kick back and relax too, whether at the beachfront infinity pool or the swim-up bar, in nine tempting restaurants, in the first-rate spa, or in your chic suite – some of which offer swim-up access.
