We switched hotels after having a bad experience with another. What a treat! Edson texted us upon reservation and had our room ready very quickly. Adorable garden and quaint little room with amenities such as water available. Lovely little breakfast.

We were very disappointed in our say at Maya Casitas. We have stayed at several B&Bs and had high hopes. For the price we paid, we should have received better accommodations. We could have stayed at a nicer hotel and paid separately for breakfast and spent less. We would not recommend unless the price is $50 US per night or less. Pros • Inn keepers were very nice. • The room was clean when we arrived. Cons • The air conditioning was off when we arrived, so the room was sweltering. We had to leave for several hours just to let the air conditioning get the room down to a bearable temp. • They call themselves a B&B. We have stayed at many B&Bs, and one of the best parts is the breakfast. The breakfast here was more of a continental breakfast. Juice, coffee, a croissant, yogurt, and some fruit. No protein and nothing was cooked. Oh, and the breakfast was the exact same every morning. When we found this out on the first morning, we skipped the other mornings. • There was NO daily service. The room was not cleaned, towels were not changed, trash was not taken out. • We ran out of toilet paper because there was no daily service. • The room needed repair. There were missing tiles, cracks, and missing plaster. • The door to the room is glass. There was a crack that went the entire horizontal length of the door, and I was worried that it would shatter just from normal use. • The air conditioning unit dripped condensation in the room. The floor is tile, so there were puddles on the floor, making it very slippery and a definite fall hazard.…

I am generally a solo traveling woman & have been to the Isla several times for weeks at a time & I have stayed in a very expensive all inclusive prior to staying at Maya Casitas & I must say, I will never stay anywhere but here. The best price a few feet away from all the restaurants, bars, and shops in the Centro & just 5 mins away from the ever gorgeous Playa Norte & you can run along the sea wall just a 1 minute walk from the b&b!! This trip was just 5 days & I brought a friend that hadn’t ever traveled outside of the states. We stayed in the room with twin beds that had a fabulous ambiance with a refrigerator, washroom, sink, roomy shower, a safe, and comfortable beds. There was a gigantic TV with Netflix & WiFi was fabulous & beneficial to make phone calls. There were books in the room & outlets beside the beds. The a/c was flawless! The entire property was simply spotless and beautiful. There is a courtyard patio with beautiful tropical plants and inviting and quaint seating for all guests. Edson & Fausto were absolutely charming and hospitable! Upon arrival I found bottled water in the room and was immediately offered a glass of water or juice. I was even offered to have pasta with them! So very kind! I spent 5 days at Maya Casitas which is located in the Centro truly in the BEST location possible. I woke in the mornings to run on the beach and watch the sunrise & the b&b was immaculate at all times. Edson also kindly provided a bottle of wine which I enjoyed with new friends I met while on the Isla. I booked the stay online and paid the morning before I left. I also asked for Edson to help me with getting low rates for private fishing, snorkeling/MUSA, whale shark tour, & the Mayan Ruins. What a deal!! I used Isla Mujeres Trips which is around the corner on Hidalgo and run by two sisters. Edson was truly a fantastic host as he suggested some places to eat and provided a price range for each. There is a bar across the street and down a shop that does play live music which is darling and it’s not an issue when it’s time to sleep. I always feel very safe on the Isla and especially so at Maya Casitas. I will absolutely be back with my girlfriends and solo again & look forward to staying with Edson & Fausto! In the mornings, Mariana makes coffee, cuts up the fruit, and sets up breakfast for all the travelers. She is ever so kind and sweet. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions about my stay as I’m pretty familiar with the island. Edson, Fausto, & Mariana- thank you so much for the lovely experience, friendship, kindness, and look out in the mail! I’m sending you a bowl to replace the one I accidentally broke! Oops! All my love from Oklahoma 😚😚 I can not wait to bring my girlfriends to enjoy the paradise of your b&b you shared with me! …

We absolutely loved staying at Maya Casitas! The rooms were perfectly clean and adorable right in the center of town. The real plus was the attention to details. The hosts cared about each host to make your experience personalized. From getting your coffee order the night before, to booking all our tours and reservations (with a discount!) I would never stay anywhere else in Isla Mujeres.

I stayed at Maya Casitas towards the end of a 3 week trip around the Yucatan peninsula, and it was without a doubt my favorite place I stayed at. I immediately wanted to extend my stay. The room was gorgeous and pristinely clean. There was a giant tv with built in Netflix. WiFi was excellent. Not only did we have our own fridge and table, there is also a little common area that has tables and is like a secluded seating garden. There were 2 employees who welcomed us with open arms and gave us great advice about isla mujeres and booked our whale shark tour for us (side note, Ceviche Tours did an excellent job our Whale shark tour!) The people at Maya Casitas were so sweet. They also made our breakfast which was delicious and also adorable. You won’t regret your stay, it’s like a boutique bed and breakfast.…

Edson was the perfect host, allowing us to check in earlier than expected and giving us recommendations for the whole island. He was a kind and genuine host who really enjoys the work he does and that comes across in the way he goes out of his way to help you! The breakfast provided within the booking was fantastic, with coffee, yoghurt and granola and the best fresh fruit, accompanied with a croissant and juice. The rooms are large and cleaned daily, with great bathroom facilities. The added extra of Netflix on a huge television was a massive bonus after some tiring days of sight seeing. We became good friends with Edson, sharing stories and a bottle of wine with him on a couple of evenings. I would recommend Maya Casitas to all my friends and family! You should go!

Stayed solo two nights and i must say. I had a good time. Centrally located, bar across street plays live music mostly salsa which i love. They stop playing at midnight so no issues sleeping. Breakfast was the best part. You can tell they enjoy their job. Everything is carefully prepared. Very delicious and thought full menu. Bathroom plumbing is a bit smelly but once u close the bathroom door you don't notice. I guess plumbing in Mexico is not the best overall. Their lil garden is so relaxing and well decorated. A lil piece of heaven. I can definitely recommend this place. That you guys! Edson, I hope you fully recovered from your wisdom tooth extraction.

This bed and breakfast is amazing and Edson and Nori’s hospitality was remarkable! Edson meet us after our early flight and offered us cold water and secured our bags until our room was ready. The room was very clean and had nice touches of fresh flowers and a stocked fridge with cold drinks. Even-though there was an issue with the plumbing, which was rectified, the stay was great. Breakfast was amazing every day and even though we had to leave super early to catch a 530 ferry on our last morning we were provided peanut butter and jelly sandwiches so we would have a snack for our travels. The owners’s hospitality is second to none. Only issue is the bar on the corner that plays music until midnight but the hotel provided ear plugs and it wasn’t too disruptive; I got to enjoy the music without having to go to the bar. On a cold beach day it was nice to read and relax in the garden. Close location to Hidalgo and walking distance from the ferry. Can’t wait for my next trip and only hope the hotel will have availability. …
