Akumal Natura was fine, but not great. Our min issue was mosquitos -- there are plenty of them, which didn't allow us to enjoy the outdoors that much. The rooms were okay but slightly dirty from the natural rooftop (straw and clay mix, I guess), some tree discard would go through. As for the cenotes, the deeper one was great - really pristine and peaceful; the shallow one was not very appealing due to sand and mud. The food was good but limited in options. The staff was very friendly, answered our questions and were knowledgeable about the surrounding.

I was expecting a glamping experience as advertised, but the place looks outdated and the room was not clean. Stains on the towel, faded curtains, a worm on the sink and the shower area looks dirty. I left right after I arrived and they pretended I stayed the whole 5 day trip to avoid reimbursing my money back. They have ignored my messages. The place is beautiful but the facilities are not glamping at all.

This is one hundred percent my fault but I noped out about 20 minutes after arriving.

There was a spider in our bed the size of the back of my hand. After that, every bead of sweat may as well have been another one. I couldn’t do it.

I’m not a wealthy person but I had booked a week and ‘gave up’ my $650-700 plus $$$ cab ride back to playa del Carmen within an hour of arriving.

I’m happy to have donated to what seems like a very good cause at least. Never even made it to the animal sanctuary or a cenote. The staff was very understanding and helped us get right back on track…

What I loved:
Feeling like we were in a secluded location in the jungle.
The beautiful setting.
The wonderful staff. They really made everyone feel welcomed and appreciated. And when my arrival was delayed, it was easy to communicate with them via WhatsApp.
The resident cat.
Comfortable rooms with ensuite bathrooms.
The semi-outdoor shower in the bathroom.
Our visit to the animal rescue.
Bicycles you can borrow.
Although the menu lists separate breakfast and dinner menus, I asked for an omelette at dinner and they gladly made one.

What I didn't love, but still liked it:
Cold shower - to be fair, the info page does mention this, I just didn't read carefully enough.
Not actually as isolated in the jungle as you think. I could hear some neighbor's music late into the night, but not in a fun, enjoy the music kind of way. Earplugs helped.
The bathroom was just a bit more rustic than I expected. It was still fine and functional.

The friend I traveled with was initially a bit skeptical, because she is accustomed to sales conferences in fancy, chain hotels. Our stay, and the staff, won her over. She loved staying \"somewhere different\" and she loved our visit to the animal rescue.

One note, the lead photo on Expedia is misleading. Akumal Natura is not on or near the beach.

The hospitality was very good and the concierge services were excellent. The property is set in the jungle and provides a cool and calming environment with two cenotes a central communal palapa for yoga, and other venues and few other spaces to relax. All the staff were engaging and friendly. I really felt welcome and a part of their community. A very important part of Akumal Natura is their wild animal rescue and tour is not to be missed.

We had an incredible stay at this glamping spot nestled deep in the lush Mexican rainforest. The location was absolutely breathtaking, offering a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. One of the highlights for us was the chance to see Jefferies spider monkeys up close, a subspecies we’d never encountered before. Their presence made the experience feel even more unique and connected to the natural environment.

The facilities themselves were top-notch. Our tent was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, providing all the comforts we needed while still giving us that outdoor feel. The entire site was beautifully designed and very quiet, perfect for relaxing after days spent exploring the surrounding rainforest. It felt like we had the whole place to ourselves at times, which added to the peaceful atmosphere.

However, we did run into a bit of an issue with security. When we returned one evening, there was no staff present, and the gate to the facility was locked. After a long day, it was frustrating to have to find a way in ourselves just to get back to our tent. While it didn’t ruin our experience, we hope they improve their security arrangements for future guests.

Despite that hiccup, we absolutely loved our time here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an immersive, tranquil experience in the rainforest. The combination of comfortable glamping and wildlife encounters, especially with the Jefferies spider monkeys, made it an unforgettable stay.

This was our first time glamping, so we did not know what to expect when we arrived. We were welcomed immediately by Jose, whose personality alone told us we would enjoy our time there. The property is stunning. It has two cenotes, one with a fish spa. We saw a variety of animals during our stay iguanas, spider monkeys, a raccoon, the beautiful pet cat, and some street dogs. The tent was spacious with a fan. The attached bathroom at the back of the tent was semi open, but stayed surprisingly clean. The only issue we ran into with the room was it raining the first night and there was a small leak in the roof onto our luggage. Off Spray was an absolute must during the entirety of our stay. We ate at the on-site restaurant several times and used it as a lounging area in between activities. The staff were all very caring and friendly. You HAVE to take the rescue tour with Cesar. It completely changed the meaning of us glamping on the property. It rounded out the entire experience. Overall, we had a great time and would recommend staying here!

This was a great experience. I stayed in a single bed and it was very comfortabe. There is a cenote on site we did not know about until we were leaving and wish we knew sooner is the only thing that could have been improved on. Probably because we arrived in the evening and we booked the tour for the next morning which goes to the cenote is the reason we did not know there was a cenote. Would definitely stay again and bring the kids next time. Staff were really great and friendly and they treated us really well. We only stayed one night and wish we stayed longer.

The property is beautiful with 2 cenotes and plenty of walking paths through nature. At the time we visited both cenotes looked really murky and not good for swimming. A fun bonus of the property is a free fish spa! They charge $25 per person for this at XelHa but at Akumal Natura you can do it for free which is super cool. The restaurant is a little pricey but everything we ate for all 3 meals was delicious. Now for the actual glamping- it’s Mexico and there is no AC so be ready for a hot, sticky and sweaty night. They gave us 2 fans but I still barely got any sleep. It was simply too hot. But I knew that going in and it was worth it for the experience. Glad it was only one night!
Everyone was very kind and friendly and they even set up a tour of a nearby nature reserve that was EPIC. We saw so many animals and learned so much and then got to experience this really cool enclosed cenote. If you aren’t brave enough for a hot night of camping then at least come for the tour and eat at the restaurant.

We didn't feel safe there. We were the only people there and there is road construction going on very close. There is no way to feel safe with 2 women traveling. So we left and they wouldn't refund our money. The Cenotes looked awful, and the restaurant wasn't open until 7. It was unbearably hot and the mosquitos had a field day with us, even with bug spray on.....Lets just say glamping is not for everyone and we should have felt more safe.

It would be absolutely perfect if not for one small thing that makes all the difference in the world: lighting. The rooms have a really cool tropical rustic vibe ……. until you turn on the lights and the warm colors of palm fronds are bathed in an icy blue fluorescent light, and then you are transported to a government bureaucracy office or a Wal Mart. Other than that, we loved the place!! We really admire their mission to rehabilitate animals, and we thoroughly enjoyed the tour of the rehabilitation facilities. The on-site cenote is lovely. I understand that the LED lightbulbs are better for the environment, but they completely kill the vibe. If they would only switch to a soft white lightbulb with a warm, it would be the perfect spot. My only other complaint is that they promise, free, bike rental, but the bikes are in such poor condition, that they are practically unusable. Several times, the chain just fell off bike.

Ate a beautiful barramundi fish (Australia really in Mexico), decent breakfast in the morning, yoga classes, and took the Monkey Sanctuary Tour to support the conservation efforts of the owner. Great private outdoor shower, too. They bring you hot water if you need it. We even adopted one of the kittens that was living there and is now a happy member of our house in Tulum (yes we live nearby and have your company).

Wifi in the rooms does not work. It's located no where near the beach despite the beautiful image they show of a beach. Lot's of bugs. Owners not very nice. We made a last minute reservation to enjoy a night of relaxing in the jungle with internet. We had been without internet for a week. And they just put up an image of their guests using wifi in their rooms. But the wifi is atrocious. So it was a big waste of time and money. We didn't want to use their restaurant. Bugs are everywhere and if you plan to be there you'll want to bring a six pack of spray hahaha!! Otherwise the place is great ;)

Akumals small town charm has been overrun by big hotels on the beach, if you really want to immerse yourself into the tranquility of this town stay here! You will feel so welcomed and relaxed. The staff is absolutley wonderful, you know they love what they do. The Glampsite, is really beautiful with meticulous attention to detail and the wellbeing of their guests, from hot water service in the morning to fresh cold drinking water available at the restaurant at any time. The Private cenote (for guests only) really ads to the experience, the wildlife in there (birds, turtles, little fish) will be along side you:)

The accommodation was spotless! (I‘m a nature lover, so i don‘t mind the occasional bug) Just bare in mind there could be the occasional spider i suppose, but there were none visiting us. The bed was a cloud, loved it. The shower is an experience in itself, absoulte privacy but it feels like you‘re „out there“ also very clean and tidy! The occasional lizzard might check in;)

I feel like this place is a hidden gem! I‘d be back in a heartbeat. If you can‘t decide on where to stay in akumal or are passing through, stay here, you will leave with a smile on your face or maybe won‘t want to leave at all ;)

We wanted to stay a night in town before heading to a resort. This is past town and down a dirt road (so take a cab - don’t walk with luggage like we did). It’s tucked away in the jungle, so you’ll see some lizards and hear some animals from the trees. The yurts were pretty nice, but I imagine it gets hot if you stay during the hot season. Overall it was 100% worth the experience of staying there.

We ride the free bikes into town and down to the beach.
Stayed a couple nights there then went to a resort on the beach. Glad we did both as opposed to just the beach. Highly recommend it.

Hotels are boring after staying at Akumal Natura. This is no ordinary venue for booking accommodations. Glamping is the way to go. You can experience Akumal, Mexico the way it was meant to enjoy. You are immersed in the environment and landscape of beautiful Akumal. I loved my stay at Natura. It will be hard for me to ever stay in an average boring hotel or resort again. I will always return to Akumal Natura. It was in my top 5 vacation experiences. I loved it!!!!

They have cenote but didn’t get to try (yet I did the amazing fish spa). Monkey sanctuary is just beside the hotel yet you’ll need to pay around 70 bucks. Woke up three times from different kinds of insects buzzing and crawling under our blankets. However, it was a good experience to connect with nature. Would recommend to nature lovers!

The staff is dedicated to the guests and committed to the environment. The beach is a short bike ride away, and bikes are provided. It’s a great location to explore the nearby ruins and relax at a quiet place at night. I strongly recommend the massage services provided on site.

you are basically in a big tent on the middle of the wild, first thing we found a death roach on the top of the bed (i would say that the staff should check the room before we arrived but they didn't) that was so gross for my fiance, the first thing we saw when we went in the bathroom it was the biggest spider i have ever seen and also the have part top part of the walls is open, also it was so hot during the night we could sleep the rooms only have a small fan, we check out the following morning but we didn't got any refund, we booked the hotel for 6 nights (biggest mistake i had ever done) we only stayed for one night, i talk to Expedia on the phone but they could do nothing about it the hotel refuse to give us a refund, IF YOU ARE NOT AN OUTDOOR PERSON I RECOMMEND YOU NOT TO STAY IN THIS HOTEL DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS LIKE WE DID

We stayed one week here, we are out doors-y people and like bugs and nature, we had a great stay here in the jungle, yoga in the morning was great and the onsite restaurant cooks really delicious food. We were a little too hot some nights but other nights had a beautiful breeze. We didn't mind the cold showers. And received hot water anytime of day when requested. We rode the bikes to the beach or drove some days. Bike riding might be a work out if you aren't used to bike riding on a regular basis as there are several hills on the route to the beach. Use natural bug spray if you plan on going in the cenotes or the ocean but bring heavy duty spray if you are just chilling or walking around. We were hesitant to use the chemical spray the first several days but it made a huge difference in the amount of bites we got towards the end of our stay. The staff were all every sweet friendly and helpful, we had an awesome time.

April visit

We enjoyed the place. Would prefer without small noise of power generator. Good dining but a little expensive. Excellent morning yoga classes in the nature ! Thank you !

Peaceful Jungle

Amazing experience overall. The staff was provided excellent service at every step of our stay. The food was very delicious - made with care and gourmet presentation. We ate breakfast, lunch and dinner there. The tents are basic but very cozy and clean. There is a small cenote on the property that makes for a very special swim.
Most impressively, we left a very important document at our room and the front desk staff made tremendous efforts to contact us and return it to us in our hotel in Playa Del Carmen. Possibly not for everyone ( you must like camping I suppose) but a great place and staff.

Luxury in the peaceful jungle

Pleasantly surprised with the availability of bicycles and the closeness of activities and restaurants within biking distance. Talented cook on site with large portions to his delicious meals.
Genuinely nice and knowledgeable staff go the extra mile.
Delighted by a private cenote available for swimming at any hour ~
Would go back 100% !!

Sanctuary

This is one of the most peaceful places possibly in the Americas. You can relax and heal here. There is peace and tranquility and awesome home cooked meals here for a very low price. There is also an animal sanctuary attached to this location that you can't payronize and possibly visit depending on the time and length of you rent stay. There is a Xenote right on the hotel grounds that Is beautiful and I feel you are lucky you will have a visit from sacred turtles that occasionally pop up there! The staff Ian extremely friendly and there will always be someone there that is bi lingual. It's in a small super safe village that has a lot of culture intense basketball games after the work day and little shops on your way at to the beach which is a short bike ride. Please do not wear toxic bug sprays and sun screen. The area isn't very serious about protecting the animals and sea creatures and will ask you to shower several times before getting into their waters which isn't extremely respectable. The natural items there can be purchased for low. The temperature is hot there so you don't have to shower with hot water however if you must tell the staff the night before and some will be prepared and delivered to you to wash with. Breakfast always includes fresh local delicious fruits! Massage therapist is on site or close by at all times for the maximum healing experience. Come open minded and culturally sensitive and you will have the best experience of your life here!

Over all a great get away

After staying in mediocre apartments in cities it was great to escape into the woods. The was a lovely respite with chill out space, a private cenote, weekday yoga and bikes to get to the beach. I looked forward to a quiet, serene experience. Unfortunately the couple in the tent nextdoor would not stop talking loudly, so I was up late into the night and early in the morning. If not for them this would have been a great experience.

Very special place for nature loving people

Wonderful place run but wonderful people., 15 minutes walk to the beach through a real local village with basic shops and local bars. Akumal beach is great. And the village is a good starting piont to visit many attractions of Yucatan.

It was quite an experience staying in the jungle, I loved being able to use bikes whenever I wanted for free, it was nice having our own cenote. The main drawbacks were the mosquitoes and the beach was quite difficult to access.

Nature lovers only

Wanted to check out this eco-friendly place before flying out of Cancun airport. Solid customer service. It's great if you don't mind the bugs. Try not to go during rainy season as the mosquitoes are relentless, especially in this jungle setting. Cenote didn't look appealing as it's harder to maintain with the rains. The Akumal area has a really nice beach, a bit small, as the resorts have priority. It helps that the site has bikes available to use.

Don't let yourself be fooled by the idea of \"glamping\" if you aren't ready for sweaty nights, messy hair and wet clothes. Upon arrival, the place was beautiful. The staff was really nice and helpful. We were unaware that there was no hot water. This didn't seem like too much to handle at first, but after intense humidity, a hot shower was necessary. It was extremely humid and all we had a was small fan so sleep was almost impossible. All of the clothes in our suitcase were extremely moist because there was no protection from the humidity. The bed wasn't very comfortable and it smelled like sweat. If you want a step up from camping, this is for you, but after 3 days in the jungle, we found another place.

Wow. A great place to stay

Staying here was a wonderful experience and I'd go back again. The staff treat you like family, the tents are great, the restaurant is very good and very reasonably priced. They will give you a bicycle and you can pedal to the beach - it's a little over a mile. I highly recommend staying there.

Beautiful place. Beautiful people.

I booked this hotel on Expedia. When we got there we discovered Expedia had made a mistake and booked a room that wasn't available. The owner and staff were very apologetic and we were given a tour of the grounds and allowed to swim in their private cenote. This is a rural jungle property that is a wonderful change from the concrete jungle. Loved the atmosphere. I really can't comment on room comfort or cleanliness as I didn't get one.

Akumal Glamping was Great!

Wonderful, serene placel, with caring hosts, a very knowledgeable tour guide (Monica), and outstanding eco-ethics. Snorkeling in Akumal Bay was pretty good (they don't allow flippers to reduce coral damage) -- we saw three sea turtles. As far as the food: we would like to see the breakfast offerings change a little from day to day and the set-menu $10 dinners vary from very good to just OK. But, the outside dining area at Natura has wonderful ambiance.

Quiet eco-hotel in the jungle, short bike to beach

Akumal Natura is a lovely eco-hotel situated just beyond Akumal Pueblo. Permanent tent cabins are spare, but comfortable. Complementary bicycles are available to use for the short bike ride to Akumal beach, Half Moon Bay, and Yal-Ku lagoon. Take a dip in their private and peaceful cenote when you get back. The staff are friendly and helpful.

Great experience

This place was grateful for those who like an adventure and are not high maintenance. Staff was amazingly nicec and helpful.

A couple thing to expect that are not advertised. There is not hot running water yet and it says it's a has a bar and restaurant. There is no bar at all. I fact they don't even have a liquor license. Although, you can go to town and grab your own and they will place it in their fridge. The restaurant is from 8 to 11 for a Continental breakfast and the again for a set dinner from 7 to 10. Although, the food is good it's not a bar and restaurant. At least not yet.

Gem in the Jungle

A quiet and quaint twenty hut accommodation in the jungle. The grounds were lush, the huts were simple and very well maintained, and all of the staff was fantastic. The yoga classes each morning and the bicycles to ride to the beach were wonderful included benefits.
