  Hello all Akumal experts! Need some assistance... We are a family of 15 looking to come over the Christmas holidays. Trying to find a place to rent. Most large homes on VRBO are rented. We would be willing to rent 2-3 within the same complex or close together. Any recommendations would be grateful!

  Briana G. asked:

  For those who have done a family vacation (with kids) in Mexico, where did you go and has anyone successfully done simply a hotel and bought your own food? I don't want to be with 3 kids "out" in Mexico, but Cabo San Lucas seems a nicer area that maybe you can do that easier? Give me your feedback if you've got it =) And I have a travel agent already, just curious people's personal experiences and if not doing all-inclusive is doable too.

  

  Kelly G. replied:

  Akumal and other Riviera Maya spots is great for kids, you can rent a nice condo on the beach ...we use https://www.locogringo.com/ Have fun!

  Troi C. asked:

  Any families that have done some all-inclusive booking in Mexico that would like to recommend resorts(children friendly) or areas or booking websites? Thx!

  

  Melissa G. replied:

  We havent done the all inc route yet. Always have either stayed at timeshare or rented a condo. If u wanna try that route, an awesome site to start with is locogringo.com. I think mainly Mayan riviera.

  Elisha M. asked:

  UPDATE: Please ignore my comment below about "off the beaten path" and "local" experiences. Now that I've done some research and gotten feedback I realize this isn't what Playa del Carmen is about. I'm okay with that and am still interested in vacationing there. Would love some insight to members' great experiences in Playa del Carmen. I should point out that my husband and I enjoy "local" and "off the beaten path" types of experiences. What restaurants must we try? Did you find an awesome little local bar that you loved that we should check out? What were 1 or 2 highlights of your trip? What sights did you see and what activities did you do that are not to be missed? We haven't booked accommodations yet so if anyone has a recommendation for a great rental that's centrally located with a pool and can accommodate 4 adults would love to hear about it! DISCLAIMER: At this point I have done little to no research on the area and appreciate any and all recommendations. Thanks in advance for helping me plan this trip!

  

  Jennifer S. replied:

  It isn't an area I would look for local experiences? Further south you can find some, like the towns of Akumal and Tulum. For a good source of info, see www.locogringo.com
