Riviera Maya Elite

Area guide

Akumal

Calm bays and a low-rise, residential coastline between Playa del Carmen and Tulum.

A quieter side of the Riviera Maya

Akumal’s name means “place of the turtles” in Maya, and its sheltered bays are known for exactly that. The community is small and low-rise, with cenotes and reef just minutes away.

It suits buyers who want a peaceful home or a second residence, within easy reach of Playa del Carmen and Tulum.
