About this apartment rental
Playa Caribe 5 is a second-floor condo in the central tower of Half Moon Bay’s Playa Caribe. With two bedrooms, each furnished with a king bed and ensuite bath, plus a queen sofa bed in the living room, it sleeps five comfortably. Both bedrooms have ocean views and a small balcony overlooking the bay.
The condo is newly updated and filled with bright touches of Mexican design—hand-painted Talavera tiles, local textiles, and a cheerful dining space with sea views. A fully equipped kitchen includes modern appliances and a large dining area. The oceanfront terrace offers incredible Caribbean views and a perfect place to enjoy coffee, meals, or evening cocktails.
Daily housekeeping, purified water, and beach towels keep your stay stress-free. Shared amenities include a pool, BBQ grill, loungers, and outdoor shower. Concierge staff provide support for tours, airport transfers, and grocery delivery.
Half Moon Bay is part of a secure, gated community with calm waters and a coral reef ideal for snorkeling. Restaurants, Yal Ku Lagoon, Akumal Bay, and dive shops are all within walking distance. A rental car or private driver is recommended for exploring cenotes, ruins, and nearby towns, though taxis and golf carts are readily available. Playa Caribe is one of Akumal’s most established beachfront condominiums, known for attentive service and its prime location.
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!

Playa Caribe is a lovely comfortable condo with 360 views of Half Moon Bay. Covered patio with comfortable loungers was shaded a good share of the day (my preferenence) Easy pool and beach access with great snorkeling right out front. The only downside was being located just above the pool there was often noise during the day. The small kitchen had no condiments, and very short on cutlery. But we had a fabulous maid, Paty who cleaned our cooking messes cheerfully every day.

We loved this condo right on the water for a mother/daughter girls’ trip. The condo was clean and cute and well equipped. Plenty of towels and purified water! The property managers texted to check on us and respond to our questions. We walked to restaurants and Yal-Ku for snorkeling. The neighborhood was quiet and safe and everyone was kind and welcoming! I’d go back in the winter months when the seaweed isn’t a problem. We were warned, but the amount of seaweed was shocking and we never got in the water in the bay. That was too bad. However we found plenty to do and had a great time.

We love the management of Playa Caribe, Augustine is responsive and efficient. Patricia is wonderful with the housekeeping. We would not stay in #5 again as it was not well supplied and the fancy mirrors worked part of the time. Basic supplies such as a can opener were missing. We will chose other condos in that complex.
