KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Akumal

  • Akumal, Mexico, is a town known for exotic coral reefs found just offshore. You can easily drive to the Akumal Dive Center and the beaches near Akumal with an Akumal car rental. There’s no better way of exploring this coastal resort than with a ride from car rentals in Akumal. A trip to Akumal is an opportunity to let loose, explore, unwind, and make memories. Car rentals are available for just that, offering you much-needed privacy as well. Additionally, having a rental car means you can carry more luggage around conveniently than if you’re relying on public transit options.
  • Most travelers flying to Akumal usually land at Cancun International Airport (CUN). Car rentals in Akumal ensure an easy transition from the plane seat to the driver's seat upon your arrival. Advantage, Europcar, Avis, Fair Way Rent A Car, ACO, America Car Rental, Deal Mobility Rent A Car, and E-Z Rent-A-Car have rental counters in the Arrivals zones of the four terminals. You can follow the “Rental Car” signs to the baggage-claim area, where the rental counters are located. The airport is a popular car-rental location, so we recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred vehicle after your plane lands.
  • Driving car rentals in Akumal is generally very easy. Like most of the towns in the Riviera Maya, Akumal is located off Highway 307. Thus, driving from Akumal to other towns is usually easy. However, here are a few tips before you get behind the wheel of any rental vehicle in Akumal. When driving on Highway 307, you may encounter police or military checkpoints. Have photocopies of your ID(s) that you can show the police when they ask for proof of ID. Not every driver in Akumal uses their turn signals, so maintain a safe distance to avoid accidents.
  • Although driving around Akumal can be a fun experience, it might turn into a daunting task during rush hour. Akumal, like most cities, has two rush-hour periods. The morning rush hour is from about 7 am to 9 am, while the afternoon rush hour is usually from about 5 pm to 7 pm. Avoid driving on Mexican Federal Highway 307 during rush hour, as it usually gets a lot of traffic.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Akumal?

    Car-rental agencies in Akumal offer a wide range of rental vehicles. Consider the number of passengers and the amount of luggage you’ll be carrying as a starting point when choosing a rental car. Safety features and fuel economy are also crucial. Rent a compact vehicle like a sedan if traveling alone and with fewer bags. Compact cars are usually much more adept at driving on narrow or busy streets. Most compact rental cars are also pocket-friendly and excel in fuel economy. Consider getting a midsize minivan if you’re traveling with a small group of about four people with lots of luggage. A midsize SUV is ideal for family trips.

  • What is the speed limit in Akumal?

The speed limits typically vary according to road type and region. When driving on highways such as the Mexican Federal Highway 307, the speed limit is 100 km/h (62 mph). The speed limit slows to about 50 km/h (31 mph) or less as you approach the city center.

Expect to pay around MX$50 ($2.50) when parking in these spaces for an entire day. There are also lots for about MX$20 ($1.50) per hour. Beach Club Hotel Akumal offers secure parking just a short walk from the hotel premises. You can get free parking from Akumal Dive Center or Lol-Ha if you plan to drink or dine while there.
