We just came from our week of vacation from ABR on saturday ( June 2, 2012). I have read most of the reviews in here before . The best review that I'll suggest to read is the one from "Horseteacher18". everything that i want to say regarding our time in ABR is in there and well said. But I'm still... More

So, ill just start off saying that I am not a person who loves those expensive looking rooms. So when I read reviews that said the rooms were basic, I was ok with that. But to say basic is an understatement. Tile in bathroom chipped and stepped on pieces about everyday I go into shower. Gaps in the door jam... More

My wife and I spent a week in January, this was the best vacation I have ever been on. The rooms were nice and had a great view, the beach was above 5 star and the snorkeling was world class. The staff were great, I look forward to going again but for 2 weeks next time. Thank you for the... More

Plenty has been said about the great beach, nice snorkeling. There is plenty of space to spread out, not all crammed in like many of the mega resorts. The standard rooms are very worn and dated but the superior rooms, bldg. 5,6,7 are much nicer. Flat screen t.v.'s, ocean front balcony. Yes, this is the tropics so there may be... More

My husband, mother and father stayed at ABR June 24th through June 31st. We have stayed in all inclusive resorts before, but never at ABR. I am a teacher and my husband is an automotive technician, so we don't make a whole lot of money and look for the best bang for our buck. We chose Akumal for the snorkeling... More

ABR is going through some growing pains right now as a the new owners are working to restore this resort to its former glory. The beachfront is the best in the Yucatan and the scenery and snorkeling are some of the best I have seen. The nearby village of Akumal allows you to leave that "fishbowl" feeling that some other...

My wife and I stayed at ABR for a week beginning May 11th, 2012. We were looking for an all-inclusive, away from Cancun, and wanted to do diving, snorkeling, and paddle-boarding while exploring the ruins. We found all that and more. What we liked: -Snorkeling/beach is excellent not only in front of ABR but also closer to Akumal village (look... More

A week ago, we returned from Akumal Beach Resort. We had a wedding there and we could not be happier with the outcome. The resort’s excellent location and superb service provided us with remarkable experiences. There are too many people to thank, a few names come to mind: our wedding planners Ingrid and Antinea, photographer Marco (an artist on his... More

My friend and I (two single women) visited from May 19 - 23. I had read a ton of reviews on TA and Expedia before we went, and it was pretty much just what I expected. The balanced reviews here will set your expectations correctly. Ignore the awful ones, and also understand that the glowing reviews are from people who... More
