We had breakfast — chilaquiles which were way too salty, french toast (white bread) had too much raw sugar sprinkled on top. The pancakes, eggs, and bacon were ok. Huevos ranchera was good. Atmosphere and service were lovely.

Our tour guide recommended this spot we shared both the Shrimp Ceviche and Coconut Shrimp. (My wife says the best Coconut Shrimp she's ever had)

the view and location is great. service and crew friendly and good at what they do. food was ok, a little pricey but worth the visit. went back again for a late brekfast. glad its there and hopefully will stay there. Akumal has changed during...the 30 years of our visits. the turtle thing is out of control and the new resorts have ruined a once comfortable and cool spot. hundreds of groups destroying a natural turtle zone is hard to witness. shame on government proclaiming it to be a nature protection area. anyway, Lol-Ha is appreciated.More

My mother and I ate here and swam at their beach last week and had a great experience! The food was super fresh and authentic, and the oceanfront view cannot be beat. The manager, David, was super kind and helpful. He made sure we were...comfortable and had everything we needed when we went out to the beach for a swim. We really appreciated the individualized attention and care we received at Lol-Ha. I highly recommend a visit!More

Got to Akumal after a tiring day if travel. Didn’t even bother to unpack, threw some shorts and flip flops on and headed to the beach bar for some tacos al pastor, ceviche and drinks. The bar crew are the bomb. Oscar, Alberto, Ronaldo and...Rafi are always on point with their service even when they are really busy. A few Sol’s for the hubby and a dirty monkey or two for me and all was right with the world. I’m on the beach writing this and the aroma from the food is enticing me for an early dinner…can’t wait!! The beach bar rocks!!More
