Before we booked Mayan Beach Garden I read many of the reviews and browsed the website quite a bit. We love the Akumal and Tulum area of Mexico but had never ventured any further south than that so we were very excited to see what Mahahual and Mayan Beach Garden would be like. We were not disappointed, in fact, our... More

If you want a great Yucatan beach experience that is way off the beaten track, then this is the place for you. Very quiet place, great rooms, beautiful beach, water, snorkelling. The food is excellent and the hosts, Marcia and Kim take great care of all their guests.

The rooms are beautiful, the grounds are lovely, the food is wonderful, the guests are interesting, the staff is only around when you need them. Marcia, the owner, has been there for 10 years, but her enthusiasm is still at its peak. Constantly changing, improving, embellishing, innovating she has to be on the move every moment...and yet, she radiates peace... More

This is a great place just to get away. It takes a while to get there (4 hour drive from Cancun), but well worth it. This was my first trip to Mexico where I was a little apprehensive prior to the trip due to all the negative press, but I never felt uncomfortable while there. I love just reading while... More

Thank you for mentioning the negative press and in turn your good experience. I have lived here for ten years and it is as safe, if not safer than it was when I first arrived. A remote place like this is not a pleasure to be here if you don't feel secure in your environment and I am grateful when... More

This was our 2nd stay at MBG. We also stayed there 2 years ago. My husband, 2 daughters, and I immensely enjoyed both visits. Almost any question you could possibly have about Mayan Beach Gardens, or the region, could be answered by searching in one place or another on their FABULOUS website. Mayan Beach Gardens is a small, quiet inn... More

Isn't TripAdvisor great? Without it I would not get to read such wonderfully written reviews such as yours. I used to have a guest book that I left in the cabanas, which I loved, but no one ever wrote such extraordinary travelogues. One note about one of your comment regarding cell service. At this moment, cellular service is not possible... More

We loved everything about our stay at Mayan Beach Gardens. We had the Tonika King Seaview room which is so lovely with several decks, chairs, hammocks and many screened windows that open to hear the sound of the ocean so clearly (and nice breezes coming in). Also the hosts have made the rooms very comfortable and secure. Marcia, Kim and... More

As a person who uses a wheelchair and walker, I don't always have an easy time getting around. Marcia, Kim, and the wonderful team at MBG saw this and came to my rescue with both caring and "construction"! They added a ramp to one of the cabanas, as well as a built-in shower bench and handrails. They've eliminated steps to... More

The Mayan Beach Garden is a the most incredible disconnect from the strife, and the daily struggle of life. The beach is beautiful, and not crowded.
