***THE SPACE***
The views --- the breathtaking views are the heart of Nahil penthouse. The master bedroom, master bathroom, living room, dining room, kitchen, infinity pool, and swim-up bar are all oceanfront. Situated on the secluded north end of this beautiful bay, Nahil penthouse overlooks the most spectacular stretch of turquoise water surrounded by coral reefs, powder white sands, and palm trees blowing in the breeze. From the bird's eye view of the penthouse you can literally see eagle rays and turtles swimming below, the occasional catamaran cruising by, and pelicans spying on you at eye level.
Decor --- from the moment you walk into Nahil penthouse you are struck with the delicate balance where ocean meets jungle, comfort transforms to beauty, and nature fades into elegance. This residence was custom designed to incorporate nature into a living work of art: showers made from corals, jungle trees sprouting from floor to ceiling, tiles embedded with fossils, and Mayan stones covering entire walls. Fall asleep to the lapping waves and wake up to nothing but Caribbean blue waters.
Bedrooms --- The oceanfront master bedroom with its custom king size bed has an open layout where the main wall slides into itself, floor-to-ceiling double sliding doors open onto the terraza, and the over sized bathroom and double shower overlook the room and the brilliant turquoise waters below. Mayan stone walls, trees wrapped in strangler vines, corals sprinkled with shells, and natural slabs of wood are the building materials here.
The guest room overlooks the jungle treetops with a hanging king size bed made of natural trees and an en-suite bathroom laid-en with corals and shells.
The rooftop palapa loft can be configured for one queen, two queens, one twin, or two twins for the kids or more adventurous travelers.
The two queen sized and two twin inflatable mattresses are also available for use in the living room and guest room (or dining room if you prefer).
Kitchen --- the kitchen is equipped with a six-burner gas stove, over-sized fridge with french doors and ice-maker, over sized dish sink with a separate vegetable washing sink, granite counter tops, breakfast bar, garbage disposal, washer/dryer, and drinkable water from the faucet and fridge.
Living room --- the living room has a large sectional sofa with chaise lounge, 46" flat screen with true surround sound, multi-media center preloaded with Netflix, Spotify, You Tube, etc. The space is surrounded by mayan stone walls with original art, jungle vines, and polished flooring which spills out onto the vast terraza. Every evening the automated mood lighting comes to life as the sun fades away.
Private Rooftop Palapa --- This is the most amazing space in the home. a 900 square foot private rooftop deck with dining seating, hammocks, lounge furniture, chaise lounge chairs, loft, sink, and bathroom. The views from up here are very special and it's the best place in Akumal to watch the sunsets!
***THE COMPLEX***
Pool & palapa --- a 15 meter infinity pool with jacuzzi-style seating, palm tree island, and sunken chaise lounges comprise some of the highlights. A spacious adjacent palapa is a great place to hide from the midday sun or enjoy a leisurely lunch.
***THE LOCATION***
Nahil is the only new condo complex in Akumal and is situated on an idyllic stretch of beach on Half Moon Bay. There are few tourists walking by since it sits at the end of the bay, but is still within walking distance to the best that half moon bay and Akumal have to offer. It's a 10 minute stroll down the sand to the best beach bar in the area, La Buena Vida. A short 5 minute stroll in either direction gets you to beachfront dining at La Lunita or Italian cuisine at the jungle setting of Que Onda. A mile by bicycle or car down the private road gets you back into the village of Akumal, along with its fabulous shops and restaurants (Lol-Ha, Turtle Bay, La Taverna, and Cueva de Pescador).
Akumal Bay is famous for its docile turtles that you can swim with all year round. Half Moon Bay is a world away from this bustling area with its privacy and beauty. Nahil is situated in front of the most beautiful part of the bay with the clearest water and liveliest reef. Other parts of the bay don't enjoy such amazing views, beauty, and access to the reef. Nahil's north end location allows the northerly winds to drive any flotsam or sargasso to the southerly end of the bay, thus keeping this stretch of beach and water immaculate.
An absolute "must-do" is to take a 5 minutes walk to the famous Yalku lagoon. This pristine lagoon is where cenotes and their fresh water meet the Caribbean sea, clashing in a unique setting of lush jungles and emerald waters. Wake up early for sunrise or wait until the main entrance closes and have the entire lagoon to yourself.
Akumal is 75 minutes south of Cancun, 30 minutes south of Playa Del Carmen, and 20 minutes north of Tulum. These cities have fantastic amenities but are not the romanticized secluded vacation spots as they are overpopulated with tourists, shops, and restaurants. If you want a "big" night out, these cities are only a short drive or taxi ride away from your hidden sanctuary.

Awesome Condo!
The condo was great! We had an excellent time! Thank you for sharing your condo with us.Just a note, the bed is high, but they have stools I was alright but I could see some people struggle with it.The location is fantastic! Management was on top of everything before and during our stay! I loved that the transportation, massage, car rental were all local to Akamul. Not large corporations. I hope this continues! Everyone we met was super helpful and kind. I can't wait to return!!!

Picture Perfect
This condo is amazing. I would stay here again without question. From the spacious showers to the blackout blinds to the patio to the well appointed kitchen to the extraordinarily comfortable beds, this place has it all.
The on-site management and daily cleaning service are extraordinarily helpful. Above all, the views from Nahil condos are unmatched in Akumal. It's perfect
Several restaurants and the public beach are just a short walk down a quaint streetscape. It makes for a perfect after dinner stroll back to the condo. Very safe and friendly environment.
Owner was very responsive and her guidebook and helpful tips were spot-on. Thank you!

Wonderful
This was a wonderful place for 2 couples to stay. Location was great! Walked to wonderful restaurants/bars. We rented a car in Cancun but only used it once! Michaela was prompt in replying to questions. She’s wonderful. And the staff was equally as helpful. Highly recommend going with JP to visit a cenote.
The rooftop is amazing. The only thing I didn’t realize from the description is the access to it is not from inside the condo. Love that the 1/2 bath is up there! Enjoyed the hammock!
When we return to Akumal we will hope to stay here again.

Fabulous stay! The condo was spotless and fully stocked with everything we needed. The pool was clean and refreshing, and the beach was absolutely gorgeous. The whole area felt safe, peaceful, and friendly, with plenty of convenient parking. We arrived late at night and had a little trouble spotting the ‘Nahil’ sign above the entrance, but we found it. The night guard, Alberto, was incredibly kind and helpful. The only downside to our entire trip had nothing to do with the condo or the area .. If you rent a car, the only problem we had was fueling up at the Pemex gas stations. They try to rip you off every time. You have to be very aware and make sure they start the pump at zero before pumping your gas don’t let them distract you!! and give them the exact amount. Do NOT hand them a credit card! keep it in your hand to use tap and pay because they will steel your card info! and if you hand them the correct amount in pesos and they act like you handed them the wrong amount (they bill switch) just roll up your window and drive away! They could probably fix this problem by changing to self-pay and self pump. Hopefully they figure that out. But back to the condo in the area…flat out amazing. We will be back!!

Almost perfect.
Highlights:
Amazing view, great staff, gated community, felt very safe. The house keeper does an amazing job and the grounds keepers are very nice and helpful.
We loved having breakfast almost daily at the nearby “La Jungla” which is just a short walk away.
We also loved having casual dinners and drinks right on the beach at the nearby “La Buena Vida”.
This place was almost perfect.
Here are some things to note if you’re considering staying here:
1. If you rent a car during your stay, there is parking on site, but not enough parking to accommodate everyone if the building is fully booked. Towards the end of our stay we had to double park at night.
2. The touchpad on the safe did not work during our stay. However the groundskeeper lent us the backup key so that we could store our valuables while we were out.
3. Towards the end of our stay a someone came(unannounced) to work on the AC unit. We left to grab lunch and when we returned, we found ourselves locked out of our place
Since guests use the keypad to enter, we had no key to the deadbolt. We had to wait over an hour for them to come unlock the door.
After their visit, the thermostat would reset itself to 78 degrees on its own within minutes of us turning it down. We would have to get up several times a night to turn it down to a comfortable temp.

Beautifull apparment with breathtaking views
Michaela’s house is absolutely wonderfull, the appartement has everything you need, the snorkeling and supping is perfect, just in front of the house. The pool is nice for the kids and the complimentary reef shoes, snorkeling gear, beach toys for the kids etc is reallifesoap comforting. On top of that: Nice to have your house cleaned every day. Only critical point I can think of is the price of the house: as we were in low season in early May, the value for money was perfect, but in high season the price goes up exceeding 500 dollars a night, a shame because we would have loved coming back next Christmas or early spring, but those prices are a bit to steep for us and to be fair are to high for an appartement of this size on half Moon bay. But surely will visit the appartement again in april/may, thank you for a wonderfull experience!

The condo was absolutely beautiful. The view was amazing. We came right after the hurricane and would barely notice with hardworking staff working on the property constantly. The area is a perfect beach town with a close breakfast place “jungle cafe” and a very friendly restaurant essentially across the street, and a corner market type place maybe 1/4 of the mile down the road. Other more fancy restaurants were also within walking distance. The coral reef… amazing. Friendly and reassuring owner who I am sure I drove nuts with all of my questions. The pictures don’t do the place justice, it was beautiful. 25 minute drive from either Tulum or Playa Del Carmen, walking distance to cenote, you can’t go wrong location wise. Lots of little things that make a big difference… coffee pot with coffee, welcoming drinks, the decorations gorgeous, the snorkeling equipment saved us money in rentals. Only complaints was that we had eight people, the place really should t be allowed to accommodate eight. Although there are two blow up beds there is only room for one inside and the other would have to be outside on the roof without access to us, big protection, or locks (or air conditioner). So we had four people camped out on our he couches. I thought the loft has inside access but was wrong.

We loved Akumal and Nahil
My family and I had a wonderful time staying at Nahil! We stayed for 8 days. The location is perfect. My kids loved the pool. The water was beautiful and my family had a great time paddle boarding and snorkeling right off the beach. The seaweed was a problem on the surrounding properties but the management did a great job of keeping our beach clear. The smell of the seaweed was a problem while walking through town but we didn’t notice it while on the property. The condo was beautiful and very clean. The 6 of us did fit ( 4 adults and two teens) however there were only two bedrooms so it wasn’t ideal for those who were sleeping on the air mattress in the living room. They felt as though they didn’t have enough privacy and weren't very comfortable on the inflatable mattress. We knew this going in but we were under the impression the pent house only had access from our unit which wasn’t the case so no one really felt comfortable sleeping up there, plus it was just too hot to sleep up there. That being said, we didn’t see anyone else come up during the day while we were using it. The only other thing I would mention is that the elevator doesn’t work and it was a bit cumbersome dragging our heavy luggage up and down the 4 flights of stairs during arrival and check out. My aunt also hurt her hip and had a hard time getting up and down the stairs multiple times a day during our stay. It was a beautiful view and worth it but not good for those with mobility issues or certain health conditions. The town was very nice and we enjoyed shopping and eating at the restaurants. It was also a great location for visiting the cenotes and other attractions such as Xcaret and xelha which were a highlight of our trip. We would recommend this place to family and friends and would definitely stay here again.

Great for the area, but maybe other areas are better. . .
Limitations on when you could use and what settings you could put your air conditioner to.
Elevators did not work. Penthouse is on the 4th floor making it difficult.
Coast was experiencing a serious problem with the accumulation of seaweed. Management did a good job of keeping our limited beach area clear, however smell was always a problem due to this inversion regardless of where you were at.

This hidden GEM gets a 10 Star rating!!
My husband and I visit Mexico annually for 1-2 months, this was our first time staying in Akumal. The area is very quaint and everything we hoped in authentic Mexico. Our accommodations were unique and exceeded our expectations in so many ways. From the custom handmade master bedroom natural wood furniture, Conch faucet fixtures, hand selected coral embedded shower tiles, magical floating Guest bed, the only rooftop in the building, a sunrise view on one side plus a jungle view on the other... I could go on and on....
This place felt like a home. It is obvious Michaela decorated her home with passion and family in mind.
We can’t wait to go back and most definitely will!! Thanks Michaela for a wonderful experience and for your professionalism through your trip.

Amazing oceanfront Getaway!
What a great Getaway! Even though this was a last minute rental, Michaela was very prompt at communications and everything went smoothly when we arrived. The pictures don’t do the condo justice. The views are amazing from every room and the rooftop palapa was a stunning bonus. The condo also had a well stocked kitchen, spices,etc. Upon our arrival the beers and beverages waiting for us were a nice touch. It was such a treat to wake up every morning, make coffee and watch the sun rise on the ocean. The daily maid service to do dishes and to tidy up was great too! It is also located in one of the best locations being so close to Yal Ku and great restaurants. They were an easy bike ride or a short walk. Being ocean front also let us enjoy snorkeling and beach strolling often. This allowed us to have a new adventure each day. We loved our stay! We hope to come back in the near future!

5 Star Beach Front Vacation
This was a perfect vacation. As impressive as the pictures are, in reality it is even better. We spent every night with the glass doors open sleeping to the sound of the Bay. We watched sunrise from the terrace and sunset from the private roof. The snorkeling was top notch. The communication and recommendations from our host were spot on. The sound system throughout the condo and extra touches like the LEDs were also great, This was exactly what my son and I wanted. I highly recommend and will be back.

Amazing property and views!
From the moment we walked in we were amazed! We continued to be amazed when we found out there is a private rooftop patio! Everything was very clean and absolutely breathtaking. They had snorkeling gear for us to use and WE DID, it was great! Even private bikes.. which came in handy!! We saw all kinds of fish and turtles! Two small things we had issues with were the balcony railing was very unstable and if two people leaned hard on it could fall to a certain death. Also the oven and stove top pilot lights were out, which was unfortunate bc we had some awesome food we wanted to cook. Those are both easy fixes. Overall we had an absolute INCREDIBLE honeymoon here. It was a last minute decision to extend our stay after our wedding and found this incredible place last minute! We are just so happy and lucky it was available for us. We will never forget our time here. Thank you!

Beautiful Condo!!!
We are just wrapping up an eight night stay at this gorgeous condo. The condo is so warm and beautifully decorated... we are sad to be leaving. The VRBO pictures are accurate and maybe don’t even truly capture the stunning views from almost every room. The only thing that was a bit surprising to us is that the terrace isn’t actually connected to the condo... you need to out of the condo, up a flight of stairs to the roof, and it’s located on the roof. We had some rain and didn’t get to use the terrace as much as we’d hoped, but it would definitely be a great place to hang out and watch the sunset. Upon our arrival and for a few days following, we had issues with the hot water heater (saw this mentioned in some previous posts as well). We were so impressed with the owner’s responsiveness and concern, as well as the efforts the staff made to correct the problem. They ended up replacing the entire water heater twice - a second time after the first replacement didn’t do the trick for some reason. So if you’re concerned about hot water issues from previous post(s) - rest assured the problem has been solved! The owner was also very gracious and gave us a partial refund for the days we were inconvenienced. Highlights of the trip were catamaran sale through the dive shop, a private tour of Rancho Santa Cruz cenotes here in Akumal, for our kids - renting a golf cart and driving it around town, and snorkeling right outside of the condo. The tips the owner provided were hugely helpful. All in all, great experience!!

Best Vacation we’ve had in YEARS!!!
I just want to say how wonderful our vacation at Nahil Penthouse in Akumal was! This condo was even more beautiful than the pictures and was sitting on the most beautiful beach!!! We had NO SEAWEED at our beach, like some of the other properties nearby. The daily maid service was terrific, the town of Akumal was outstanding and the people were the friendliest I’ve met!! It was so safe!!! The food was absolutely amazing, at all the restaurants Michaela recommended. Snorkeling just in front of our condo was some of the best we have done!!! I cannot recommend this place enough. We had a party of 6, 4 adults and 2 teens and it was plenty of space! We will be back!

Best property from Cancun to Tulum
We absolutely loved our stay! Michaela was extremely responsive to my (many) questions before our trip and offered very helpful advice and information. The unit itself is spectacular. There is no better view than what you get from this property. Being able to have beautiful views of the bay from the bed (I woke up to the sunrise each day), the bathroom, the living area and the kitchen made it feel like every minute of the day was spent in paradise. The location is perfect. Half moon bay is one of the few remaining places in the world with snorkeling right off the beach in a quiet setting. Lots of variety of coral, and tons of fish. We saw turtles, rays, an eel, a baracuda, and schools of 50-100 fish that would allow us to swim alongside them. The bay is shallow, so it never felt unsafe, even fairly far out (which is where the most coral and fish are). We were amazed that we usually had the entire bay almost to ourselves (maybe that is different other times of year?). Even though it was August there was a breeze all the time that kept it reasonably cool, plus we spent all our time in the pool or bay. On one side of the bay is Yal-ku lagoon (tip - bring the life jackets that are in the unit otherwise you have to pay to rent them) with great snorkeling, and on the other side is Akumal Bay where you can swim with turtles and rays. Close by are beautiful cenotes (we loved Garden of Eden which is only 10 min drive), Dos Ojos (we went early and literally had it to ourselves for an hour), and Gran Cenote. The ruins at Coba are fantastic. If you have mobility issues (as I did), you can pay $9 to have someone pedal you around the ruins and act as a guide. Or you can rent bikes for a few dollars. Well worth the trip. We have been to that area 4 times, and Akumal is definitely our favorite place. No high rises on the Half Moon Bay keeps it feeling much more peaceful than other resort areas. And La Buena Vida is just down the road. Perfect for kids there are tree houses, hammocks, a pool, and all the tables are right on the edge of the bay. The only downside to this paradise is the sea grass that washes up and lines the shores. The beach in front of this condo never had much at all, which made it much nicer getting in to the ocean. We loved our stay here so much we can't wait to go back!

AMAZING!
This was our second time staying at this condo. We loved it so much the first time we came back 2 years later! We have been to Mexico hundreds of times to vacation and this is by far the best place we’ve ever stayed. Michaela is very responsive and is very knowledgeable about Akumal. This condo was very clean, the views are just amazing, oh and the rooftop palapa... no words can even explain! We rented a car from the airport, stopped at the grocery store in Playa del Carmen and then never used the car again during our stay because we rented golf carts. We were so sad to leave Akumal and this condo as it felt like paradise staying here! We will be back!
