Oceanview, Pools, Walk to Beach & Akumal Snorkel

Summary:

Bright oceanview condo with dual views—ocean from your terrace, pool from both bedrooms. Walk to a quiet private beach where you can swim with sea turtles at Akumal Bay. Nine pools across the complex mean you'll always find your perfect spot. Fully equipped kitchen, Smart TV, and workspace for remote workers. Located in peaceful Santamar—close enough to Akumal's restaurants and shops but far enough to feel like your own tropical hideaway. Your Riviera Maya escape starts here!



The Space:

This second-floor condo gives you the best of both worlds: wake up to ocean views from your private terrace, then step into bedrooms overlooking the pool. The space feels open and bright, with enough room for four guests to spread out comfortably.



The living area flows naturally onto your ocean-facing terrace where you can have morning coffee or evening drinks. Inside, you'll find a Smart TV for downtime and a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need: dishwasher included for easy cleanup. The breakfast bar with three stools overlooks the ocean, making even quick meals feel special. Two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, both with pool-view balcony access:



- Bedroom 1: King bed

- Bedroom 2: Queen bed



NINE POOLS & PRIVATE BEACH ACCESS

You have access to nine pools total: five rooftop pools (one per tower) and four at ground level. The largest ground-level pool sits right behind your building. The Santamar Beach Club adds two more pools, plus a quiet sandy beach where sea turtles often visit. Many guests walk down to Akumal Bay for snorkeling.



THE LOCATION

Santamar sits in a jungle setting that feels secluded but isn't isolated. Downtown Akumal with its restaurants, shops, and bars is 5-7 minutes by car. You're also close to world-class golf courses and major Riviera Maya attractions. A car is necessary here—the property sits down a 5-minute gravel road that makes it feel private but requires a vehicle to navigate.



WHAT'S INCLUDED

Free WiFi, Smart TV, safe for valuables, linens, towels, and parking. The dining table works well as a laptop workspace if you're working remotely. We provide starter supplies of toilet paper and soap to get you settled.



You will love the cleanliness, comfortable space, beautiful views, and easy communication. Families appreciated the tranquil setting close to activities. The private beach and multiple pools.



Guest Access:

Santamar is tucked away in a beautiful jungle setting, accessible only via an unpaved road, so a car is necessary to navigate the road since the property is not accessible by foot.



You'll have complete and exclusive use of the condo and its private terrace. Additionally, you will have shared access to the shared amenities of the complex, such as the swimming pool, private beach, and common areas.
