Casa Azanik [1]
Great stay, terrible concierge!
Reviewed on 2025-03-17 by , Litchfield, NH United StatesWe loved our time at Casa Azanik. The house was beautiful and served our group of 6 women well. There were a few small maintenance issues- broken sliding door screens, musty-smelling 1st-floor bedroom (we decided to share rooms rather than have someone stay down there) but overall the house is lovely and comfortable. The staff was phenomenal! Maria and Carlos (our delightful chefs) made us fabulous meals and were kind, friendly, and fun. They made the trip! The house manager Rhett made us feel very welcome, gave us great local intel, and was always available to answer questions or help us problem-solve. We felt very safe in the neighborhood (right down the street from the National Guard base) and Ernesto the night watchman always ensured things were ok. The groundskeeper kept things tidy and the pool was cleaned every day. The only downer was the so-called concierge service. We worked with David to plan trips well in advance so we wouldn't have to mess with it while on vacation. The first day our tour company just didn't show up. We had to make our own arrangements to get to Tulum. They did refund our money, but it was a pain and frustrating! Other issues with other tours required a significant amount of time to rectify, NOT what we wanted to spend our time on, especially since we thought we had settled everything well in advance. Overall, we loved this vacation, the house, the staff, and the location, and would come back again. We just won't use the concierge service through Akamal Direct and would book things on our own when we got there.

Fun House in Half Moon Bay
Reviewed on 2025-03-06 by Steven F. , westminster, CO United StatesThe house ran out of gas so one breakfast was cooked on a hot plate and was slow to deliver. The water pump broke and we were without water for a day. The staff worked diligently to get it fixed but it was still inconvenient. The spa was dirty and was hard to get it to work, we never used it because of this.
Not what I would expect for the price we paid. Overall, it was a good house, overpriced for 7 people, better if you can fill it up to make the price per person reasonable.
Things break and we understand that, running out of gas should not have happened for that kind of money.
The house is big enough for 14 people, we only had 7. We had plenty of space for 7 adults not to bump into each other. The house staff cooked several meals for us and all the meals were delicious.<br/><br/>The house ran out of gas so one breakfast was cooked on a hot plate and was slow to deliver.

The Perfect Getaway!
Reviewed on 2024-12-19 by Kimberly B. , Covington, LA USI highly recommend Casa Azanik. We had a party of 7 family members, but we could have accommodated so many more. The booking process was extremely efficient, and the concierge helped us book shuttles and activities. The manager Rhett and the daily caretakers Carlos and Maria helped us navigate Akumal wonderfully. Although we did eat at some local restaurants, our favorite meals were the ones prepared for us at the villa. The pool area right on the beach made snorkeling, kayaking, and relaxing in the pool and the ocean seamless. We look forward to returning!

Book It!
Reviewed on 2024-08-09 by Matthew S. , Sacramento, CA United StatesIf you’re looking for a beautiful beach side home to accommodate a large gathering, look no further. This home is clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Maria and Carlos went above and beyond to make ensure we enjoyed a fabulous week on the Mayan Riviera. Thank you all. <br/><br/><br/>

Fantastic!
Reviewed on 2023-12-27 by Gayle P. , Albuquerque, NM United StatesPerfect location for 10 adults and 2 children. Easy walking to restaurants, bars and small groceries. By far the nicest place we’ve stayed in 30 years of family vacations.

Amazing home Great location!
Reviewed on 2023-11-13 by Melissa D. , Houston, TX United StatesThis home is beautifully decorated and sits on beautifully half moon bay so the view is amazing! We had a group of. 10 for a birthday celebration and it was perfect. Guests loved that each room had their own en suite. The entertaining areas were great to have a sit down dinner or hang out outside around pool! We enjoyed pool and rooftop hot tub every day and night! The kitchen is equipped with all your needs to cool in or have chef come on and prepare your meals! The daily staff was so friendly and accommodating to our morning hours. Lastly the managment company was so helpful with all our excursions or anything I needed. We just loved our stay and can’t wait to go back!

Perfect Beach Escape
Reviewed on 2023-07-12 by Heidi N. , Minneapolis, MN United StatesSeriously, not a bad word to say about our entire stay. Staff was exceptional. Maria even helped us find local things like rides and massage therapist and even helped us find the BEST tacos al pastor in downtown Akumal. There was a young man who was night staff too (whose name I didn’t catch) but he was very kind, helpful and respectful of our space. Overall, Amazing staff!!!!
The whole house was great for a group. Big enough for us all to spread out and have privacy but gather in communal spaces for togetherness. We didn’t have kids with but I’m a mom of 3 and it had lots of great touches for families too. The kitchen was stocked perfectly with dishes and utensils. (The insulated cups to use were MUCH appreciated in the July heat) The bedrooms and bathrooms were all spotless, the common spaces were beautifully designed and great for a group. And the number one FAVORITE thing was the pool and beach. The pool and view of half moon bay from it was FABULOUS!! Very private feeling. The day bed on the beach was used for many naps and relaxing moments with the sound of the waves.
We even had a sea turtle visitor that would come up nightly to dig her nest. One night getting herself stuck in the neighboring pool of a house under construction. We informed Maria and local turtle rescue groups and we all worked together to get her back into the ocean safely.
It was a great trip and I highly recommend this house to anyone thinking about renting it. It was a perfect Akumal beach retreat. We feel so lucky that we got able to stay here and appreciate the space being available to us ��
We rented Casa Azanik for a getaway for my 40th birthday. It was a group of family and friends. (All adults) Right away upon arrival, Maria, Carina, Edgar and Samuel were very welcoming, letting us know they had prepared the house for us.<br/><br/>Seriously, not a bad word to say about our entire stay.

Beautiful home, great location!
Reviewed on 2023-06-20 by Erin L. , Stafford, VA United StatesThe home was incredible and in a great location. We were close to restaurants and shopping. We rented a golf cart so it made getting to the places that were a little further very convenient. Snorkeling, paddle boarding and kayaking from our backyard was amazing. The management team was very responsive to all of our questions and requests. It was about 1.5 hrs from the Cancún airport and 2.5 hrs to Chichén Itzá (would definitely recommend this excursion). We would absolutely stay here again!

Prime Location on Half Moon Bay

Getting Here and Getting Around
While the villa is within walking distance of many local highlights, a car rental or private driver is recommended for guests planning to explore Tulum, cenotes, or nearby towns. Akumal Norte does not have direct access to taxis, and bikes or golf carts are not ideal for longer distances or evening outings.
