About this property

Amazing Caribbean Views and Clean Beach!

Located away from the crowds at the northern point of Half Moon Bay, La Sirena is quiet and peaceful. Some of the best views of the bay are available from here. The La Sirena property centers around an enclosed garden courtyard. The two bedroom condominiums enjoy a full ocean view on the sea side and lovely cool garden view overlooking the courtyard to the interior. The garden courtyard centers around a large swimming pool that includes a full lap lane.

Sirena 14 is a third level (top floor) unit overlooking the shoreline and beach area. High ceilings and a spacious floor plan help to create an easy airy feeling within the unit. From the main entrance you will arrive at the open living space that includes a dining area with seating for four, very large kitchen with ocean view and breakfast bar and main sitting area. The sunken sitting area is just a few steps down from the main entry level, creating the unobstructed ocean view from rear to front of the unit. The living area is comfortably furnished with built-in section sofa and is cooled with a large and quiet operating mini-split air conditioner. Glass doors off the sunken sitting area take you to the ocean side terrace that is well furnished for enjoying the view and breezes. This is a perfect spot to take it all in during the early morning and evening hours.

To the rear of the unit are the two bedrooms.

- The master bedroom is cool and restful. It is furnished with a king bed enjoys a garden side terrace and private bath.

- The guest room is also furnished with king bed and has a garden side terrace and private bath.

Both bedrooms enjoy pillow top mattresses and are cooled with quiet and efficient mini-split air conditioners.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo is fine. Could use some general maintenance. Didn’t seem super clean, but this is more a function of the aging condition of floors, counters and fixtures. Beds are comfortable. Kitchen is adequately stocked. Management company is very responsive and addressed questions and a couple of issues immediately. The grounds at LaSirena are beautiful and well maintained. The view from the condo is awesome. There is easy access to snorkeling. The outdoor positives offset any shortcomings of the condo itself.

Far from the crowd, beautiful views
Loved the view of the ocean from this condo. Lots of space. The pool area was also very clean and nice to have as the ocean is very shallow and rocky by the condo. The condo building has gorgeous well maintained gardens. The condo has a lovely deck but the birds were very upset when we used it (must be a nest close by.) The condo is an over a mile from town. We rented bikes which helped. A couple of things to note: the sliding door needs a handle for ease in opening. The stairwell could also use a thorough cleaning but otherwise we highly recommend.

Beautiful!
Would definitely recommend. It's in a gated area that is very safe, with restaurants within a short walk, and more within a short driving distance. The apartment itself was spacious, comfortable, and clean. Staff was friendly. Reef snorkeling is right outside and we saw plenty of sea life: Corals, colorful fishes, barracuda, and more. There is also Lagoon Ya Kul that is a short walk away with plenty of fish as well. This is a dream location for snorkel lovers!

Love La Sirena
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place is second to none! The location is the best in Akumal! Snorkeling right out the front door and the most spectacular gardens I’ve seen here anywhere! Just beautiful! The only issue we had was that our unit was not clean to start with and never really got cleaned. A quick sweep of the floors and changing garbage bags out is not cleaning. The unit itself was in need of a deep clean overall. Also the dining room chairs were terribly uncomfortable with the sun poking us in the back every time we sat down and they were very difficult to move. Otherwise this place was lovely. Incredible views and a lovely outdoor patio front and back. Loved it!

Overall a Great Stay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at La Sirena #14 for 8 days. The location is incredible! The snorkeling in the bay is beautiful, and Yal-Ku lagoon is walking distance. There are multiple nearby restaurants that were all excellent! The management was very responsive and answered any questions before/during our trip promptly and professionally. The maid service was good as well. The A/C units worked great, which was very important to us. The unit is stocked with all basic dishware and appliances, all in good condition. The unit was reasonably clean. The pool was clean and well maintained. The only recommendations I would offer are that the unit could use some general maintenance/repair/cleaning (broken counter tiles, moldy grout in showers/corroded shower heads). I also discovered two dead American cockroaches when untying one of the curtains to close it. Not a huge deal, but could be remedied by more frequent deep cleaning. The water pressure was very low and the shower seldom heated up enough to even be considered lukewarm. Not an issue if you travel during the hottest months, but a warm shower would be nice. The beds are very firm, but the abundance of pillows makes this tolerable. Overall our stay was very enjoyable and we look forward to our next visit!

Amazing view
Wonderful area to stay, largely sargasso free because of the shallow reef and the currents, which keeps this rather rocky end of the bay clear, as is most of the snorkeling part of the bay. Good news is that a barrrier was being put into place as we were there to hopefully block the large pods of sargasso that has been affecting so much of the coastline in recent years. La Sirenas also has wondrful gardens around their large private pool, as well as their private oceanside raised sand beach, which is always seaweed free. We have stayed in this area many times over the past 20 years and it is always a pleasure to return. Now if I just had better knees to climb all the stairs!

Wonderful stay - what a gem!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love off the beaten path, small places to stay in great locations. This condo fit the bill. Snorkeling right out of the back door - and even better, literally just down the adjacent street 200 yards away phenomenal easy calm snorkeling in the Yal Kul lagoon. ($14 a day and well worth it)We were so impressed with the Akumal team's communications with us - both before and during our stay. Prompt answers, polite and friendly. We arrived very late in the evening and made use of the lockbox next to the door.Views were unbeatable, ocean breezes kept things cool at night, and one day was so hot we used the in-bedroom air conditioner - a quiet unit that was perfect. Beds were comfy, linens and towels nice and soft. Owners are eco conscious - towels and linens changed after one week. We made use of the clothes drying line. Rose, the daily housekeeper, was wonderful and respectful of our hours. The kitchen was very well stocked with spices and oils and everything you need to cook - but there are some great little beach side restaurants just down the road. All the places have huge 5 gallon bottles of purified water on the counter and they'll bring a spare if you run out.We rented a car, but you could easily get around on foot and pay higher prices for food. Akumal Half Moon Bay was great - no big resorts, lots of places that have been here a long time. We loved having the ocean out one balcony and the pool off another, and were lucky to have quiet neighbors during our stay.Highly recommend this third floor unit - it was perfect! Pack light - you won't need much more than a bathing suit and a change of clothes. Everything else is here in the condo including blow driers, shampoo and cream rinse.And thank you to the previous guest for leaving eggs, butter and coffee in the fridge. We returned the favor for the next guest.

Spacious Condo on Half Moon Bay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay here. I loved that the kitchen had everything we would need, including a blender and coffee maker. Wonderful large covered balcony. Air conditioning worked well. There was no hot water in the shower one day, even after letting it run a couple minutes, but it seemed fine the next day. There were some ants in the kitchen, but I assume that's common around here. While the view is nice up on the top floor I wouldn't recommend this particular unit for elderly people or anyone who isn't steady on their feet. It's a lot of stairs up to the unit and many steps inside the unit itself - sunken living room, etc. If you're up for the stairs, it's great. We also enjoyed the swimming pool and access to Half Moon Bay, which was great for snorkeling. Akumal bay is a total circus so it was nice to be here where there are fewer people. We were also able to walk to Yal-Ku Lagoon/Cenote from the condo. There are only two restaurants within walking distance, but they are both good.

The top floor unit was breezy and cool in the day and had a great view of the bay. The staff were very helpful and efficient and the place was spotless. The large pool was clean and inviting, and the garden was beautiful.

Excellent Condo
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were lucky to spend an entire month at LaSirena and loved every day of it! The condo had a wonderful view, from all rooms, and especially the balcony, where we spent most of our time. Francesca, the onsite manager was friendly, professional, responsive and extremely helpful. The kitchen was large and well equipped, so we cooked quite a bit. We loved the location for a few reasons: it's close proximity to the lagoon for snorkeling, being in the quiet part of town, yet only a mile from all the action, across the street from the National Guard, so we felt very safe. The pool and beach are well maintained and beautiful. Even when the resort was busy, it still felt very spacious and private. We'll come again!

Our condo was OK but not as well equipted as it could be. The juicer didn't work and other things were substandard. One morning I found a large scorpion in the kitchen sink. I killed it and then sent pictures and a message to the fellow from Akumal properties and never did get a response from him.

So good we didn't want to leave!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at the north end of Half Moon Bay at La Sirena Condos exceeded our expectations! Akumal is a charming, low-fuss village & we weren't interested in some of the other towns nearby that are way to crowded now. The location of our condo was ideal & we literally had the best snorkeling conditions around! There is an abundance of sea life right there: eels, sting rays, many types of colorful fish, sea urchins, coral (always wear water shoes!). We even saw bioluminescence! We had a picture perfect view of the Caribbean Ocean from our balcony & massive ocean facing windows. We were steps away from swimming & snorkeling or just relaxing under a palapa, listening to birds & feeling the breeze under the palm trees. The property was just as it is described, better actually. Everything you need is right there & we stayed for two weeks. Daily maid service was a real treat for us all & it felt like a true vacation not worrying about constant clean up (except tidying up little messes, of course). Akumal Direct always got back to me about any questions I had (& I had a lot!) & they even accommodated us when we needed to make a last minute change. They were incredibly thoughtful & patient which meant so much to our family of four traveling internationally for the first time due to COVID. We decided not to rent a car & stayed closer to home for the duration of our vacation. Instead we rented a golf cart one day & also the on-site bicycles for several days. These modes of transport made going out to dinner (La Buena Vida, Turtle Bay Cafe & Bakery), getting groceries or getting over the bridge to Akumal Pueblo for fresh produce at the local vendor stands much easier. Other than that we walked all over (to dinner a few minutes walk at La Lunita) & to Yal-Ku cenote & lagoon many times (which is a 5 minute walk). The pool area is lovely & the beach is paradise. I enthusiastically recommend this property to anyone looking to visit Akumal. We would love to return one day!!

Perfect spot in Half Moon Bay
My husband and I loved staying here. The unit is beautiful and spacious, room for a family or two couples if you wanted to share. The grounds are lovely, the beach front is quiet and you have snorkelling right at your doorstep in the protected bay. You can walk to a few restaurants near by if you want to eat out, or buy some groceries on the way and cook in the full kitchen. Great for entertaining. The lagoon is walking distance away as well. You need to pay to enter, but it would be a great day activity with a young family. Mayan temples near by and the town of Akumal.

Beautiful, spacious condo with great views
We loved our stay here. The condo has a wall of windows so the views were magnificent. The large patio is covered. We spent lots of time out there watching sunsets and star gazing. We were just two people but enjoyed having the extra bathroom. The kitchen is large and very adequately supplied. The wall of the master bedroom can fold open so you can enjoy the view from bed. The pool was perfection: quiet and cool, a slice of heaven after the heat of the beach. The beach is small and private, we were often alone. Half Moon Bay is gorgeous, but very rocky and the current can make snorkeling difficult especially when it's windy. Water shoes are a must. The complex manager was terrific and very helpful. There were a few small negatives, none of which seriously detracted from our stay: the wi-fi didn't work and we had to pay an additional fee on our cell phones to get internet access. The satellite tv didn't work until part way through our stay. The living room furniture is somewhat uncomfortable. The windows leaked during a pure-dawn thunderstorm. The master bathroom has a beautiful large shower, but not tons of toilet privacy. The flights of stairs to the top floor got old fast, but were especially difficult with suitcases. The area was awesome and exactly what we were hoping for. We rented a car after we arrived in Cancun and were very happy we did. Best shopping for food etc was in the Chedruai, one North and one South of Akumal. Great snorkeling in Akumal Bay. Do not be fooled by the aggressive hustlers at the main beach entrance who try to tell you that you can only snorkel in a guided group. Best to avoid them by going to the side near Akumal investments and the restaurant. Enjoy lunch or drinks on the beach at the restaurant. Bring your own snorkel gear or rent at the dive shop. You will see turtles, fish, rays, etc all on your own. Try to snorkel early or when the water is calm for best visibility. Go out in front of the Secrets resort beach. Great restaurants nearby-we miss the La Buena Vida which we visited every day for either a meal or drinks and dessert. La Lunita was great. We'd recommend trying all the local places. Not a bad one in the bunch. The other tip we received was to look for small roads on the beach side of the highway. These often lead to gorgeous beaches and often a family has a house near the entrance and charges a small amount of pesos to drive down the road. We always felt safe & found several spectacular, quiet beaches
