The rooms were nice and very clean. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The menu was very overpriced for what you get. Example, one hamburger ordered costs $26. The resort was so big that you could not walk around and the beach was a far ride through the resort. The beach area was also small. There was not a bar atmosphere to enjoy in the evenings other than the lobby and restaraunt.

this resort is probably perfect for romantic getaways or if your traveling with friends,the setting is marvelous!if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle this is the place to go,very serene and the whole staff are just wonderful,there are plenty of activities to do inside and outside the resort,shopping and nighlife is 10 min away from resort ( u have to go to Blue Parrot if you want to partyyyyyyy & dont bother wearing your fancy pair of shoes,the sand is ur dancefloor) overall this resort did not dissappoint me,sevice was excellent,the casitas are beautiful,food was excellent (though it was pricey),i will not recommend this resort for people who have kids.

Our stay was very nice. They have a great beach, and lovely pools. The restaurants were good. The staff was friendly overall all though sometimes a bit slow. Great rooms and large bathrooms. We did find our balcony a bit small for a Casita room. The regular hotel rooms I believe have the same size balcony, so you might as well save money and stay in a regular room. Overall, it was a great experience and we would come back.

The hotel and grounds were beautiful and the service was excellent, but the beach and the hotel lobby were very far from the rooms. The hotel does offer prompt shuttles to get around. The beach restaurant ""Las Brisas"" only offers outdoor terrace dining during the day, and no adequate sunshaded areas for larger groups! The slight smell of sewage in the shower water raises some questions though the hotel staff claims that all the hotel's water is purified. Overall we were not impressed for the price we paid and will probably not stay at the Mayakoba again.
