Travelled with group

What I loved:
Feeling like we were in a secluded location in the jungle.
The beautiful setting.
The wonderful staff. They really made everyone feel welcomed and appreciated. And when my arrival was delayed, it was easy to communicate with them via WhatsApp.
The resident cat.
Comfortable rooms with ensuite bathrooms.
The semi-outdoor shower in the bathroom.
Our visit to the animal rescue.
Bicycles you can borrow.
Although the menu lists separate breakfast and dinner menus, I asked for an omelette at dinner and they gladly made one.
What I didn't love, but still liked it:
Cold shower - to be fair, the info page does mention this, I just didn't read carefully enough.
Not actually as isolated in the jungle as you think. I could hear some neighbor's music late into the night, but not in a fun, enjoy the music kind of way. Earplugs helped.
The bathroom was just a bit more rustic than I expected. It was still fine and functional.
The friend I traveled with was initially a bit skeptical, because she is accustomed to sales conferences in fancy, chain hotels. Our stay, and the staff, won her over. She loved staying "somewhere different" and she loved our visit to the animal rescue.
One note, the lead photo on Expedia is misleading. Akumal Natura is not on or near the beach.
