About Us

Welcome to Akumal Getaways

Hola, y Bienvenidos!! I’m Gina, and I run this little portal to your future getaway vacation in Akumal. I first visited Akumal in 2014 while on an excursion from Cancun to swim with the dolphins. I instantly fell in love with it there, and bought my first condo shortly thereafter. It was my 1 Bedroom Beach Condo, and my first renovation outside of the US. It was difficult, but so much fun. I then wanted something a little bigger, so when the 2 Bedroom Beach Condo right across the hall went up for sale, I didn’t hesitate to buy it. That renovation, while way bigger, was way more fun since I already had the process down pat. The Villa, Casa de la Brisa, was purchased during COVID in 2021. Due to the pandemic, the renovation took way longer than expected, but it came out so much better than I had hoped. 

 

I decided to start Akumal Getaways to try and steer away from the larger booking sites. In the past few years, the commission percentage rates and fees have become astronomical for my guests. I’m sure you know what I’m referring to. So, this is to help all of you out, my amazing guests.
Hope you find your slice of paradise at one of my properties. Salud!

  • Gina’s place is incredible!! You can just sit & watch the view all day. Just a short walk away from Akumal Beach where you can swim with the turtles – an amazing experience. Highly recommend!

  • Lovely place to stay! We went here for our honeymoon and enjoyed the quiet beach front location. We loved that the room was on the top floor, and the service was excellent.
