"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 12 had a wonderful time just hanging out, enjoying wonderful meals from the chefs, struggling with turtles, and some of us even did whale shark swimming, which they said was totally worth the trip back to Cancun. The sargassum seaweed exists (it’s not terrible off the back of the house, but it’s everywhere in the area which really inhibits enjoyment of the beach). Also, the paddleboard and ping-pong cable were both broken and neither fixed, nor replaced while we were there."

"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: We originally booked a different property in Akumal, and the rental company contacted me the week before to let me know how bad the seaweed was at the original property, would I like to change to La Sirena 18? After looking at the listing I agreed. This was a life saver!! Driving past our original booking during the week I would roll down the window and smell- HORRIBLE!!!By day 2 my family begged me not to roll the window down. No such smell at La Sirena!Because we came in Sunday night and had changed our lodging, #18 was not cleaned up to their usual standard, and some tools were left lying from some work they were doing. First thing Monday morning we got a visit and the place was cleaned up and fantastic.We used the pool daily. The last day we just sat and unwound from the tourist things and really enjoyed the ocean, pool, etc.Thanks, Akumal Direct, for saving us from the seaweed. It was very thoughtful of you to help us painlessly make the change and our vacation was awesome because of it!"

The staff were helpful and kind, the location was an easy 2 minute walk to a close small convenience shop; 5 minutes to a nice restaurant and the beautiful swimming lagoon, for snorkeling, and a nice 20 minute walk into Akumal village (with shops, groceries, beach, swimming with sea turtles, and nice restaurants. The VRBO was roomy and well equipped for my wife and me, our daughter and her husband and their 3 boys, ages 14, 12 and 8. We made dinners for ourselves in the comfortable big kitchen most nights."
