If you're looking for a secluded and lush destination in the heart of the Mayan jungle, look no further than Hotel La Luz in Akumal. This boutique hotel is perfect for couples and small groups looking for privacy and peace. With only three rental casitas on the property, guests can fully immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the area. The hotel is ideally located between Playa Del Carmen and Tulum, making it easy to explore the entire coast.

The hotel's 2.5 acres of property offer guests a variety of amenities to enjoy. Relax in the deep pool or lounge in one of the comfortable chairs. The large shaded patio adjacent to the pool is available to all guests and is perfect for hosting a few friends for dinner. On a moonless night, gather around the fire pit and listen to the wind move through the tree canopy. The hotel also has a fully equipped gym with a complete weight rack and other accessories for those looking to pursue their health goals.


Hotel La Luz is perfect for nature enthusiasts and wildlife lovers. The hotel is fully integrated into the jungle and is shared with many other creatures that call it home. Guests can observe spider monkeys, Coati, Agouti, Grey Fox, and dozens of species of birds, lizards, and insects. The property has been carefully managed to preserve as much original forest as possible, and some of the trees are over a century old.

The hotel's infrastructure has been developed to be as low-impact as possible while still providing modern comforts. All units have air conditioning and modern amenities. However, the hot water is solar, wastewater is managed by a system of leach fields, and all the linens are air-dried in the jungle sun. The hotel is committed to pursuing sustainability and continues to work towards greater environmental harmony.


Use the bungalow to explore the Yucatan and all its delights. Akumal's beaches and restaurants are only 10 minutes away from the property. The hotel is centrally located for day trips to countless cenotes, Playa del Carmen, Tulum, Sian Ka'an Biosphere, and Cozumel. Stop here on your way to Valladolid, Bacalar, and Mahahual. Gated parking for one car is included. Public transportation stops at the entrance to the neighborhood, a 12-minute walk from the hotel.


Overall, Hotel La Luz offers guests a peaceful and comfortable immersion into the magical corner of the globe that is the Riviera Maya. With its secluded location, natural beauty, and commitment to sustainability, it's the perfect destination for those looking to get away from it all and experience the best of the region.
