About this villa rental

Akumal Breakers: A Caribbean Beachfront Paradise in South Akumal, Mexico



Be sure to watch our video!



What’s for dinner? At Akumal Breakers it may be the easiest question you answer all week. Select your meals before you arrive and our staff shops, cooks, serves and cleans up while you are still in the hammock listening to the Caribbean roll over the coral breakers. That is the idea behind everything here: a one of a kind beachfront villa, a white sandy beach, a large pool surrounded by amazing chit and coco palm trees, and a trained, dedicated staff grounded in traditional Mayan hospitality. Akumal Breakers has been one of the highest rated 4+ bedroom beachfront vacation villas in the Akumal area for several years on both TripAdvisor and VRBO.



RELAX. WE TAKE CARE OF THE REST

From the day you book, your group has a private Guest Dashboard with a Trip Planner that covers directions, safety, villa rules and the tips our guests wish they had known sooner. Your Relax Meal Plan lets the group leader pick meals in advance from our menu, and the whole group can see the week at a glance. Staff services are settled on one Statement, so nobody is chasing receipts on vacation. It is a modest fee for a very different kind of week, and our guests say so in their reviews. More below.



SOUTH AKUMAL: A COVETED BEACHFRONT COMMUNITY

Akumal Breakers sits inside the exclusive paved entry enclave of South Akumal, one of the most sought-after beachfront neighborhoods in the Riviera Maya. A 24/7 guarded entrance and a well managed HOA keep the streets, the security and the beach in order, and beach traffic stays light. South Akumal Bay is sheltered by a large cluster of coral breakers that soften the waves, which is why snorkeling, kayaking and stand up paddle boarding is great right off our beach. Jungle Fish Beach Club is a 15 min walk up the beach and Lol Ha is 30 min.



INSIDE THE VILLA

Enjoy dramatic Caribbean views from the spacious living area, bar and kitchen. We have two bedrooms on the ground floor which is great for families of all ages plus two on the second floor and an exterior second floor apartment. Non-slip porcelain floors throughout, so wet feet from the pool are never a worry.

The kitchen and bar carry Dekton stone countertops from Spain and precision laser-cut cabinetry by Ixina, a premier German kitchen company, with a Teka air fry oven and a 4 burner gas range. Cook if you want to. Or let the staff do it and take your coffee to the beach.

POOL, GROUNDS, AND BEACH

Morning coffee in handmade wooden Adirondack chairs. The cascading waterfall over one shoulder, the Caribbean over the other. A pool deck of Piedra Maya Vista stone laid to echo the ancient cenotes of the Riviera Maya, and a large table overlooking the pool and the Caribbean, with a view better than any restaurant’s.

A smooth, sloping sidewalk from the street to the rear of the villa provides easy access with only two low steps and the narrowest point measuring 84 cm (33 inches) accommodating most walkers; wheelchair users may need assistance.



OTHER OUTDOOR FEATURES

Pristine sandy beach cleaned Mon-Sat.

Hammocks under swaying palms.

Open-air shower with hot water, a guest favorite after a sandy day at the beach. Great for kids too.

Custom stone / stainless steel grill.

Shaded relaxing area with soft grass.



SARGASSUM: Like much of the Caribbean, the Riviera Maya periodically experiences seasonal sargassum. While this is a natural condition beyond anyone’s control, our HOA gardeners work hard to keep the beachfront cleaned and maintained, and guests continue to enjoy the beach, pool, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddleboarding as part of the full Akumal Breakers experience.



ROOFTOP OBSERVATORY

Climb to the rooftop observatory for sun by day and a canopy of stars by night. Panoramic Caribbean views in every direction, no light in your eyes but the moon, and the quietest seat in South Akumal.

STAFF SERVICES AND THE RELAX MEAL PLAN

Our trained and dedicated staff is the difference between a rental and a stay. Staff services are charged in US $ and settled on your Statement, which you can view at any time from your Guest Dashboard, so nothing is paid to the staff directly. Prices are shared after booking and do not include staff tips. Staff are off Sundays and Mexican federal holidays unless arranged in advance.

Relax Meal Plan: Booked guests select up to two meals per day in advance from our menu, and our staff does the shopping, cooking, serving and cleaning up for a very modest fee. One main dish per group meal, with a few special dietary options. Our meals get very high reviews from our guests. Other meal options include staff pickup from our favorite restaurants or dining out, and yes, the kitchen is fully equipped for your many wonderful DIY meals. The full Relax Meal Plan and menu are shared shortly after booking.



GROCERY SHOPPING: The staff will shop for the meals they will prepare and you can order other DIY groceries, snacks and beverages to be delivered to the villa prior to check-in.



MASSAGES: You can book massages upon arrival with staff member Ana, who is a licensed massage therapist.



LAUNDRY: The staff can machine wash and dry 1 load of clothes at no charge but are not responsible for any damages. Machines are not for guest use. Special care not available.



EXTERNAL CHEFS: Not permitted due to a lack of responsibility for our kitchen and proper clean-up. Guests have also commented that previous Chefs were too expensive and they did not get enough to eat.



RENTAL PROCESS / RULES

All rental communication with the owner will be via email and ONLY with the group leader.

Confirm all passports are valid for your entire travel dates, which may vary by airline.

Select “BOOK NOW,” check availability, enter information and credit card.

50% of the invoice must be paid in order to secure the reservation, with the remainder due 60 days prior to check-in date. 100% due at booking for New Year’s, Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas weeks.



GUEST pays a refundable damage deposit of $700 USD via credit card, PayPal or check at time of booking. Any damages in excess of “normal wear and tear” will be deducted from the deposit, which will be returned within four days of check-out, usually sooner.

Review and sign the rental agreement.

Once your rental deposit and agreement is complete, you will receive:

Confirmation and payment receipt with a link to your agreement

A link to your private Guest Dashboard with the Trip Planner (directions, safety rules and trip tips), the Relax Meal Plan, Pre-Stock option and other guest tools, again receiving high praise from our previous guests.

One week before arrival, the group leader will be asked to complete the Group Info sheet on your Guest Dashboard with important security information:

Emergency contact

Names and ages of all guests

Flight arrival / departure times

Means of transportation to the villa (rental cars or transportation service)

Additional needs (crib, high chair, other)

Once received, we will send your private door code by email. Our staff will provide the group name and rental dates to Security and you will receive a window pass which must be returned. GUEST is required to advise villa STAFF of any damages prior to checkout. Smoking in the villa or on the beach (federal law) is strictly prohibited and will result in a loss of the damage deposit and possible expulsion from the villa. Any damages in excess of $700 USD will be charged to the credit card. Only registered guests are permitted on the property with no exceptions.



REFUND POLICY

Trip insurance is highly recommended. Please check Travel Insured International, American Express Travel or Nationwide. Ninety percent (90%) of the total booking charges will be refunded if the cancellation is made more than 60 days prior to the arrival date of the reservation. For cancellations made within 60 days prior to the arrival date, no refund will be issued.



Some villas give you a beach. Akumal Breakers gives you the beach, the pool, the rooftop, 8,000 hand-cut stones, a kitchen you will want to cook in and a staff who would rather you didn’t have to. Come for the Caribbean. Leave wondering why every vacation isn’t this easy.

You’re going to love Akumal Breakers!

Private, safe property. Beachfront property gave us immediate access to kayaking and paddle boarding. Family of eight had lots of room to spread out and they could enjoy all amenities of their choice.
