Come to Club Oasis Akumal, and leave your every day world behind. Here we've created an oasis of nature and pleasure for you and your family. A magnificent tropical resort - tucked away in the beautiful and secluded ocean front community of Akumal. http://www.caribbeanmag.com/search/hotels/Akumal_Mexico/cluboasisakumal/hotel/228/11/ en-us Copyright 1998 e-TravelMedia.com/CaribbeanMag.com Tue, 14 Feb 2012 15:17:49 EST What to expect: This casual beach resort attracts a largely European clientele of couples and families. Low-rise buildings housing guestrooms are spread out along the edge of the Caribbean's blue-green waters. Open-air, thatched roof huts house most of the public areas, lending a spacious, airy feeling to the resort. Amenity highlights: A vast coral reef lies less than one km (one-third of a mile) off the resort's powdery, white-sand beach, making the calm, clear water perfect for snorkeling. The resort also has four pools (including a quiet pool), two theaters with regular evening shows, seven restaurants, eight bars, and on-site tour services. The Kin Ha Spa offers a variety of beauty and spa treatments (surcharges), a Temazcal steam bath, and yoga classes. And because virtually everything is included at Club Oasis Akumal, from meals and beverages to nightly entertainment and daily recreation, all you have to do is enjoy and relax. The resort's 288 air-conditioned guestrooms are located in three buildings of two and three stories (no elevators). The buildings are connected by walkways made of seashell and stone; buildings are screened by lush tropical landscaping. Rooms are decorated in a modern Mexican style using earth tones, with tile or marble floors and wood-and-iron furnishings. Bathrooms have porthole windows and deep tubs and Roman-style showers (step-in shower with high sides). Three of the Grand Oasis Riviera Maya's four pools are located by the beach and are the sites of daily activities; the fourth is at the back of the property and is designated a quiet pool. Guests have access to two lighted hard-surface tennis courts (surcharge for night use), a multipurpose court, and a pitch and putt course.
