From Cancun International Airport follow the Playa del Carmen - Riviera Maya signs, they will take you to the south, about 40 minutes later you'll get to Playa del Carmen, stay on the same road, just at the end of the city you'll see a big shopping center on your right side (Centro Maya, this is the last chance to get a big super-market, Banks and ATMs before getting to your hotel), drive for another 35km (22miles) from this point. You'll get to a bridge that takes you to Akumal Bay and town, exit the road at this point by your right, as if you're getting into the Akumal town, find the first U-Turn and take it, you'll be at the bridge right now heading to the beach, you will cross the main road, follow straight to the beach and in a minute you will be there, right before you enter the Akumal Bay gate you'll see the signs to get to your hotel, you will be there in no more than eight minutes.
