My wife and I stayed at the Fairmont Mayakoba for a week in February. The stay was part meetings and part pure vacation. This resort is outstanding. The grounds are huge. They provide golfcart transportation, which comes in handy when you want to get to the beach or back to your room. There are also BMW bicycles that may be... More

This was my second trip to Fairmont Mayakoba. As somebody who travels the world and is VERY discerning when it comes to hotels, that alone should say something. Last trip was Dec, '08 and I had such good memories that, when looking for a place to just relax and do NOTHING, this was my first pick. Before reading too far,... More

A few weeks ago I hosted with my family in Fairmont Mayakoba, is a heavenly place, the rooms are scattered throughout the jungle with a lagoon next to your room, you can take a tour around the hotel in small boat, you can see crocodiles, ducks, birds and too many kinds of animals that had never seen! The food was... More

We had one of the few beachfront rooms at the resort, and it was terrific. Steps from the beach, not a big hotel but rather individual units for a very island feel. I think I would have enjoyed the vacation less if we were in one of the 'jungle' view units. There is a river running through and it's pretty... More

We just got back from Myakoba and had a wonderful time. Our room was a peaceful casita on the canal. It was spacious, clean, and extremely well-maintained. Getting around the property can be tricky at first but you het the hang of it. If you can find a bike, take advantage of it. We tried all three resteraunts, very expensive,... More

From the valet, to the desk clerks, maintenance and housekeeping, restaurant and bar servers to the pool attendants. . . all are trained with the guest top of mind. Their expertise in their areas is top notch, the... More

Wonderful, friendly resort in Playa Del Carmen. Has everything you need in the resort, including some great vegetarian meals, abundance of pools and relaxation areas, and lovely spa. Buggies help you get around and to the beach, or take one of the complimentary bikes!! Fantastic margaritas and the friendliest staff I have ever met. Will be going back!! Tip: ask... More

We decided to go to the "Mayan Riveria" and stay at the Mayakoba Fairmont. As expected, this is a five star facility and it lives up to its name. My wife and I especially liked the rooms with their privacy and the open shower. Took some getting use to at first but loved the natural light. The breakfast was incredible... More

We thought the food was fantastic. We were all inclusive and the wine they served us had gone off but we always insisted on a fresh bottle which they obliged. Although it is a very large hotel, we were remembered in every restaurant. Very good service. Weather not wonderful. We went mid dec and had two bad days out of... More
