The airport staff was super helpful, arranging taxis and even letting us grab waters and snacks before heading to our accommodations. Though the gated entrance was a bit hidden, our room was clean, clutter-free, and cozy. The bed was very comfy, and while the thin windows allowed some traffic noise, it was mostly quiet at night. There was a faint smell of bug spray and a few bugs, but it didn’t detract from the overall experience. Our host, Jesus, was fantastic, providing fresh towels and passes to a lively, luxurious beach club that was truly a highlight. We also loved the rooftop area with a small, clean pool, perfect for relaxing. The property felt safe, with plenty of shops, dining, and entertainment within walking distance. While the TV didn’t work, the Wi-Fi was reliable, and the affordable price made it all worthwhile. We’d absolutely stay here again! ##### Melissa Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Penny Dec 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Akbal Playa had an authentic Mexican esthetic and had the extra benefits of a kitchenette.
