Ground-Floor Beachfront Condo with Pool & Concierge Services

Playa Caribe 2 is a ground-floor condo at the heart of Half Moon Bay, offering a central location with direct access to the pool and beach. Designed to sleep up to five, this two-bedroom retreat blends comfort and Caribbean charm.

The primary bedroom features a king bed with ensuite bath, while the guest bedroom includes a double bed, twin sofa bed, and private bath—ideal for families or groups of friends. Both bedrooms have an ocean view and walk-out access to the pool area. Central AC cools both bedrooms and the open-plan living spaces. The kitchen is thoughtfully equipped with an electric stove, full-size refrigerator, and a breakfast bar overlooking the turquoise bay, making meal prep part of the experience.

The private patio is furnished with loungers and a BBQ grill, with an outdoor shower nearby for rinsing off after the beach. Guests enjoy daily housekeeping, purified water, beach towels, and onsite concierge support. Parking is included, and the team can assist with tours, grocery delivery, or transportation.

Half Moon Bay is a tranquil neighborhood with soft sand mixed with coral rock, great for snorkeling—water shoes are recommended. From Playa Caribe 2, you can walk to Yal Ku Lagoon, Akumal Bay, shops, and restaurants. For adventures beyond Akumal, a rental car or private driver is suggested, though taxis are readily available and public transport runs along the highway. Playa Caribe’s reputation for service and location makes this condo a trusted favorite.

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!

Not pleased

Property was ok kind of dated, beautiful view of the Bay Beach was not what we were expecting, not very appealing to me. Also being on the ground floor next to the pool was very loud, which took away from the beauty of the Bay,not able to enjoy the peacful surroundings.

BEAUTIFUL!!

Pictures do not do this apartment justice. After staying for a few nights we were dreaming of what it would be like to own our own place just like this in half moon bay. Communication from the host was excellent. Response time was within a few minutes for anything we could have needed. There was only one hiccup with the host confirming we would have a travel crib upon arrival but we weren't able to get it until the next day. It didn't even matter that we didn't have the crib the first night as there was enough space for all of us to sleep and live comfortably. We loved being on the ground floor with easy access to the pool and beach. We cooked all meals at home and used the grill our last night to make a delicious surf and turf meal. The location couldn't be any better. So close to Yal Kul and beautiful reefs available to explore right off the beach. The extra sand toys available made it easy for our youngest to stay busy on the beach. We absolutely loved our stay and hope to come back soon.

LACK OF DISCLOSURE

Entering the condo we were overcome by a strong smell of mildew. After opening the doors, it remained strong, and my friend got an upper respiratory infection overnight. Both bathrooms had two steep steps to access, none of which were noted in the rental description. Also the 2 bathrooms featured showers w/steep steps down to access. No grab-bars to assist in/out of shower and slick when wet. This rental is NOT appropriate for those w/mobility issues or children. Akumal Direct, moved us to another unit for a few nights while deep cleaning the original rental. They were unable to find another ground-floor unit for us to rent being high season so we moved back into the unit with the hazardous showers that my friend could not access. The property manager and housekeepers we pleasant and accommodating, but Akumal Direct didn’t seem too concerned with addressing our issues and rectifying the situation. Lastly, the unit is steps from the pool which is available to all staying at Playa Caribe so be prepared for people walking across the porch to access the pool and lots of people/children within earshot. Lessons learned: DO NOT rent a non-refundable unit and ASK if it is safe for older travelers. While Akumal Direct claimed the bathrooms were clearly depicted in the rental description, THEY WERE NOT.

A Wonderful Experience!

This is the second time that we have stayed at Playa Caribe. The Condo's decor is exactly as you see in the featured pictures and have a nice authentic "Mexican" feel to them. Everyone is very friendly and we always felt safe. This time we didn't stop for groceries on our way in, but brought shopping bags with us and picked up everything we needed at the general store by the arches or the little convenience store near the condo. At night, we took our meals mostly at La Buena Vida which has a breezy hobo chic style to it. The food was always good. During the day we hung out at the beach or the pool, and we also arranged through David at Akumal Direct for a couples massage, and on another day for a facial/mani/pedi. Reasonable and fun! We really enjoyed our holiday and will be back!

Direct beach access

Really awesome direct beachfront condo. Very easy access, and in quiet Akumal. Lovely breezes across the bay every day. Unfortunately, there was a seaweed bloom that dumped a foot deep of material on the beach every day while we were there, but the location was nonetheless impressively beautiful.

Thanks to the Flakes for sharing their beautiful condo. We love the location and neighborhood. The condo has everything most would want for a beach vacation. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking if you want to. Having the reverse osmosis water was a fantastic feature. The staff were very helpful, reliable and a pleasure to work with. We would love to come back!

Serenity by the Sea

For my first visit to the Yucatan Peninsula, I chose this property because of my desire to by steps from the ocean, a pool for my daughter, ability to watch sunrises, peace, safe environment, away from major mega tourist traps, snorkeling walking distance and a comfortable practical place to spend my days. I’m hesistant to write such a good review as I don’t want to let the secret out of the bag. Playa Caribe met all of my expectations and then some. It’s location, peacefulness, design, pool, staff and communication with the owner. Tip Hilda every day, she’ll appreciatte it. Be kind to the area as we are only visiting ths beautiful planet for a short while. “Can’t take it with you.”

Excellent! Beautiful place. Perfect for our 1 week family vacation.

The building is very nice. Probably the nicest looking in the area with its thatched roof, open roof foyer and more authentic architectural style. The pool was lovely and our kids (7 & 9) had loads of fun in it. Unit 2 was very spacious and bright. We loved the ground floor with beach, garden and pool right off the patio. The kitchen was well equipped with everything apart from a kettle and sharp knife and/or knife sharpener but we managed. It was very clean and comfortable. We loved being able to drink the water and make ice - a total bonus! The shower/spa baths were a little odd and the steps in are quite high and hard on bad knees. The beach was perfect with the best snorkelling straight out front with coral and every fish imaginable, rays, barracuda (only 1 turtle). A bit rocky getting in and out but there are a few smooth clear areas to walk on. We usually had shoes or fins on so no problem. Overall this place was fantastic and we had a great time!

Incredible location

The condo is located right on the beach and by the pool. It was great to have that convenience. We really enjoyed snorkeling in the bay and seeing coral and small fish. My family and I enjoyed exploring the Half Moon Bay area and restaurants. We ate at La Buena Vida, La Lunita and the Turtle Bay Bakery. All were very good with great atmospheres. It was wonderful to hear the waves crashing every night as I fell asleep. In addition, the staff at the complex was really helpful and friendly. I would definitely come here again and will recommend it to friends and family!
