Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya

Tranquil marine retreat.
Set along Akumal Bay on Mexico's Caribbean coast, Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya is an adults-only, all-inclusive retreat overlooking calm waters known for resident sea turtles and easy access to the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef. Days unfold between the beach, pools, and open-air dining venues, while evenings bring live music, themed events, and a lively yet polished atmosphere.
Insider Tip

Head into Akumal Bay early, when the water is often at its calmest. Snorkeling alongside green sea turtles is one of the area's signature experiences, with the bay's clear waters offering a window into the marine life of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef ecosystem.

Where You’re Staying

Rooms and suites feel airy and understated, with marble bathrooms and furnished outdoor living spaces that extend the connection to the surrounding landscape. Many overlook tropical gardens, pools, or the sea, while swim-out accommodations offer direct access to a shared pool from the terrace. Spacious layouts are complemented by soaking tubs and rainfall showers.

Where to Dine

With nine restaurants, variety is a defining part of the stay. Oceana showcases seafood in a beachfront setting, El Patio serves up traditional Mexican cuisine, and Portofino focuses on authentic Italian dishes. Himitsu offers Pan-Asian specialties and teppanyaki/hibachi (the only reservation required), while Seaside Grill and Market Café cover everything from leisurely buffet breakfasts to grilled seafood and steaks.

Where to Relax

Akumal Bay's typically calm, swimmable waters encourage a relaxed pace. Alternate between the shoreline and pools that range from peaceful and tucked-away to more social settings with activities throughout the day. Reserve a shaded Bali bed for the afternoon, or spend time in the spa's hydrotherapy circuit before settling in beside the sea.

What to Do

Days can be as active or relaxed as you like. The resort offers a wide range of activities, so you will never be bored. Join a guided bike tour into Akumal town, take a tequila tasting or Spanish lesson, try archery or tennis, play a game of beach volleyball, or head onto the water by kayak or paddleboard. After dark, live music, themed evenings, beach parties, and nightly shows keep the energy going.
