About

On the picturesque shores of Half Moon Bay in Akumal, Luna Azul 8 stands as a testament to luxury and tranquility. This fully renovated penthouse suite is tailored to accommodate couples, friends, and families of up to six, delivering the perfect fusion of comfort and luxury.

Serene Interiors

Upon entering, guests are greeted by a modern and immaculate interior. A palette of cool whites and soothing neutral tones permeates the space, creating an ambiance of pure serenity. Every inch of this sanctuary has been meticulously upgraded from floor to ceiling, ensuring your stay is extraordinary.

Sweeping Ocean Views

A defining feature of this beachfront retreat is the awe-inspiring ocean views that grace you from various angles. Whether you're sipping morning coffee on the furnished terrace, unwinding in the spacious living room, savoring a meal in the dining area, preparing delicious meals in the state-of-the-art kitchen, or rejuvenating in the primary bedroom, the turquoise allure of the Caribbean is a constant, enchanting companion.

The kitchen is a culinary haven equipped with top-tier appliances, quartz countertops, a convenient prep area, and a breakfast bar. While you create your gastronomic masterpieces, the mesmerizing seascape is your backdrop. Gather around the exquisite granite table, where six can dine in opulent comfort.

Comfort for All

The primary bedroom is a true sanctuary, with an en-suite bathroom and a smart TV for your entertainment needs. What sets it apart is a floor-to-ceiling glass wall partition, which, when opened, seamlessly extends into the living area, providing an expansive sense of space and allowing you to wake up to ocean views from the king-size bed.

The guest bedroom is equally inviting, featuring a queen bed with its ocean-view window and a bunk bed with two singles that offer glimpses of the lush jungle surroundings. This room also boasts an en-suite bathroom and a smart TV, ensuring comfort and convenience for all.

A World of Exploration Awaits

Beyond the luxuries of your vacation haven, Half Moon Bay in Akumal beckons as a paradise to explore. Yalku Lagoon, Akumal Bay, and the charming Akumal Pueblo are within walking distance, offering natural wonders and cultural experiences. Adventure seekers can easily access cenotes and natural theme parks, while the vibrant town of Tulum is just a short 25-minute drive away.

Luna Azul 8 goes above and beyond to ensure your comfort. Our daily housekeeping service ensures that your haven remains pristine throughout your stay. Also, our dedicated concierge is at your service both before your arrival and during your stay, offering valuable assistance with guest services. From arranging ground transportation to booking tours and activities, we're here to make your experience seamless and memorable.

KINDLY NOTE: South winds may bring Sargasso Seaweed to some beaches throughout the Caribbean, including the Rivera Maya. While the situation is hard to predict for each specific week and area, we would like you to be aware as there is the potential to impact the beach and water entry.

The Riviera Maya is full of natural beauty, places to explore and opportunities for outdoor activities. We have a great list of activities and adventures completely unaffected by the arrival of sargasso that we would love to share with you. There is so much to see and do in this special place, we know that you will have an amazing and memorable vacation!

This beautiful modern feeling condo was perfect for our family of 6. It was clean, light and bright, and had everything we needed. We LOVED that we had a private beach just outside our condo and Half Moon Bay was AMAZING for snorkeling! Alma, the maid, was so sweet and did a great job. The condo is right in the middle of the bay with restaurants within walking distance in either direction. Our family had a very relaxing week.
The only negative we could find was that the master bedroom bed was extremely firm/hard.

Manager's Response

Thank you, Christine, for your kind words! We're delighted your family loved the condo, private beach, and snorkeling at Half Moon Bay. Alma will appreciate your praise. We’ll share your feedback on the bed for improvement. Let us know when you’re ready to return!

We enjoyed our stay very much. The property was as described and met our needs in every way. The view is spectacular as we were literally steps from the ocean. Everything was clean and well maintained. We were supported well by the management and concierge services. I'd recommend this unit to friends that are interested in an out-of-the-way and relaxing experience. Restaurant choices are limited but the ones nearby are very good. Snorkeling on the private beach was great and nearby were other places where you could see even more turtles, stingrays and many types of fish. Tulum ruins are not far and pickup at your doorstep can be arranged. Bring a supply of US dollars and MX pesos as cash is not always easy to acquire nearby.

Manager's Response

Thank you, Tori, for your thoughtful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed Luna Azul 8’s stunning views, cleanliness, and great snorkeling. Your tips on local activities and cash are helpful. Let us know when you're ready to plan another relaxing getaway!

This condo was perfect for my husband and I with amazing views right on the bay. Has everything you need. It appears the condo went through a complete renovation. It was absolutely stunning. Unfortunately, we were there during tropical storm Sara so couldn’t do a lot of the things we had planned. Can’t wait to come back and we would definitely stay in this condo again.

Manager's Response

Thank you, Karen, for your kind review! We’re thrilled you loved Luna Azul 8 and its stunning views, thoughtful renovation, and ideal setting. We’re sorry the storm impacted your plans, but we can’t wait to welcome you back for a sunnier stay. Let us know when you’re ready, and we’ll gladly help plan your return!

The best equipped unit we’ve rented at Half Moon Bay. A bit of a struggle with four flights of stairs normally not a concern, however I am awaiting a left knee replacement surgery. You need not be an athlete yet it does require fair amount of stairs. Generally I would want to stay here again once healed & stronger.

Manager's Response

Hi Steven,


Thank you for your kind review of Luna Azul 8 on Half Moon Bay. Yes, there are 3 flights of stairs but completely worth it. Please let us know when you're ready to join us again and we'll gladly help you plan another great vacation.

We had a beautiful view in a quiet area. The condo has been recently updated and was beautiful and airy and clean, just like the photos and description. The AC units worked great on the hot days. The provided drinking water was appreciated. The power went out for a few hours when we were there which we knew was a possibility, but it did not cause us any problems. We cooked multiple times and enjoyed using the kitchen. We also spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the view. It was close to lots of great experiences--snorkeling, scuba, monkey sanctuary, Tulum, etc. The restaurant right down the road was great to have in walking distance. Every time we communicated with the team at Akumal Direct we received prompt and helpful replies. We were delayed and ended up needing a late check in, but that went smoothly. We would definitely recommend this suite!

Manager's Response

Thank you for your review and recommendation, Joshua!


We're glad you found the new remodel to your liking during your stay at Luna Azul 8 and were able to experience beach living in Akumal. When you're ready to visit again, we'll gladly help you plan another great vacation.

Luna Azul #8 is beautifully renovated, with everything you might ever need. Located at the top of a 4 story building. The views of Halfmoon Bay were amazing.
The beach was racked daily and seaweed picked up. There was always lounge chairs available.
We had maid services every other day. Which was perfect.
Having a concierge was so helpful. David answered all our questions and helped find day trips for us.
The only minus was how hard the beds were and the drains in the showers took a very long time to drain. Very minor complaints.
The only thing I wish is that we could have stayed longer!

We enjoyed a quiet week in Half Moon Bay, Akumal. Communication with Akumal Direct was easy & prompt, check in easy, condo bright, clean and well appointed. We did not need anything. The private beach was steps from the condo and very quiet. We spent most of our afternoons there.

Have stayed at Luna Azul many times and always been pleasant....not this time. As Akumal Direct now seems to have a monopoly on half moon bay the prices keep going up remarkable quick with no apparent correlation to quality of accommodations. This unit was tired and in need of upgrade with tiny bathrooms and showers. I only had one warm shower in 3 days and all my showers the water barely tricked out of the shower head. The bed was old and hard as a rock. Comfort foam mattresses are inexpensive now and fit most peoples comfort levels. The seaweed is rough but that is mother nature not property owners while quality of the units and basic comfort is

The property was clean and well thought out. You can't eat the location for snorkelling, swimming and beach access.
The place needs a day with a handyman to fix the minor repairs needed to the bathroom fixtures (taps, mirrors) The unit is more suitable for a family of four than two adult couples - one couple gets a bigger room with closest and the other gets a smaller room with shelves. The close proximity to restaurants and grocery was nice. Excellent view. Air conditioning works very well. The cleaners who come every day to pick up your toilet paper were good. Beds are extremely firm (mattress on a concrete slab.
The plates, cups, glasses and wine glass selection was minimal. If you broke one you have no back ups.
