Apr 15, 2026Secrets Akumal - I hated to leave!
If you have never experienced the benefits of an all-inclusive resort, Secrets Akumal will create for you a standard that will be difficult to surpass. All of the Secrets resorts provide an exceptional experience, but Secrets Akumal goes out of their way to show you why they have won the 5-Diamonds award for five years in a row. We will most definitely return, and encourage everyone to take the time to experience this gem in Riviera Maya!

Great resort with even better people and food!
My wife and I went with a large business group (about 350~ people). Great resort, great people, and amazing food the entire time. First time having lobster tails cooked on an open pit next to the pool (which were amazing!). We have done several large group trips like this with my company to various countries and this one will be very hard to top. I would highly recommend visiting this resort!

First timer to Riviera Mayo area
The resort and its employees exceeded our expectations. The resort sits on the beach and is nicely integrated into lush green “jungle”. The resort grounds are beautiful and there were many critters running around The waiters around the pool were excellent. Most fun was the Activites staff Sia Anthony Alan Oscar the Rock of Mexico Max Carlos Dede.

Authentic Genuine Hospitality Professionals
Secrets Akumal April 2026 It was truly a welcome home and more memories were created for life during my birthday, our wedding anniversary and my 500 days of sobriety celebration. We were welcomed by Marco-bellmen at the front door of this exceptional 5 💎 resort and he made an incredible first impression by putting my 0% Modelo Negra in a Secrets bag where they were carefully waiting for the delivery to our guest room. We were then escorted down to the preferred lounge where we spend a lot time through out our stays. At this time we were greeted by Angel at the preferred check-in desk and discussed the possibility of staying in our previous room 2202 which was amazing for our May 2024 visit. At this time we were notified that the room would be occupied but they had carefully selected 4206 which met all our expectations and more during this stay. I was absolutely delighted to see Modelo Negra 0% and Evian Water ready after a long day of travel. Monica was our concierge in building #4 and was always willing to go the extra mile to ensure our personal needs and requests were met. Antonio was our pool #1 concierge for most of our stay including the rental of our Bali bed #5. Abraham, Efren and Jose were our pool #1 and Bali bed servers. It was great to see Osuna a few times from our last visit but he was never in our area. The pool/bali bed service still continues to be an area that needs improvement especially compared to our stay at Secrets Maroma. They just can’t seem to reach that standard during both of our stays. Himitsu dining experience twice was absolutely top notch and very memorable. This stay and our previous stay Chef David has truly made a remarkable difference in our evening with the service from Ayram. Oceana meal was excellent and service once again from Ayram was much appreciated. Bordeaux dining with Arturo was very nice and the delivery and execution was great. Portofino Jazmin manager made sure we were greeted and treated with hospitality passion from start to finish. My amigo Jaime from Seaside and Chef Luis truly went above and beyond to make sure that we were always taken care of and they were a very critical and important piece of our entire stay. Max and entertainment team members were enthusiastic and positive energy that kept the guests moving and flowing throughout the day. Mario and Ivan in the preferred lounge were always ready to accommodate and happy to meet our requests each and everyday. Gabriela was always delightful and enthusiastic. We appreciate her positive energy and it was very nice to see her at the lobby bar before we left. I would like to acknowledge Raymundo and Hugo Rivero for making sure people were in place and anticipating our needs through out our stay. Mr. Santiago was the glue that kept the machine running smoothly and always doing his best to ensure our requests were met and making personal touches that truly made a difference and will strongly influence our decision to return home to Secrets Akumal soon. Muchas Gracias / Thank You 🙏 Paul and Celeste Ryan

Wonderful week at Secrets Akumal
Resort was wonderful, but staff is what makes the biggest difference for us. Jose (Bldg 9A Concierge), Jose (Main Pool Concierge), Alejandro (Quiet Pool Concierge) and Henry (Quiet Pool Waiter), Felipe (Main Pool Waiter) and Perla (Massage Therapist) are deserving of special mention as they made our trip special and memorable. They all certainly deserve recognition from resort management for their professionalism, customer service focus and wonderful demeanours. Gracias por su arduro trabajo, we will be back soon.
