Overall Ratings & Reviews Maya Eco Village

This place was sublime - beautiful garden and natural pool, roomy huts with screened porches, lovely helpful owner, just a few kilometers from Akumel beach and 30 km from Tulum ruins in a quiet, out of the way location. I’m sorry I was only staying one night.

What a gem! A beautiful little piece of paradise hidden in the jungle. The owner is super kind and accommodating and we loved everything about our stay.

This small, woman owned, bed and breakfast is exactly what you hope for. The hostess is an amazing woman who invites everyone into Mexico with open arms and a smile before you even arrive with helpful information to get to the property and for once you’ve arrived. Each private bungalow has its own special charm surrounded by the beautiful jungle where you can see and hear the native wildlife. We were pleasantly surprised by the lack of bugs on the property (it is the jungle after all!) and that the wildlife seemed to sleep at night and quieted down. The hot, homemade breakfast served each morning was delicious. The hostess will provide you recommendations for activities and places to eat from the free cenotes to amazing restaurants and little villages to visit. If you prefer to stay on property, the brand new pool is beautiful and immaculately clean. Highly recommend this place!

Beautiful garden with special ambiance and attention from Amaya, the host.

We had a really lovely stay at Maya Eco Village over New Years. The gardens and surrounds are just so beautiful and peaceful, and each bungalow is a little oasis within the property. We had a little 'porch' that we could sit at in the evenings and listen to the sounds of the jungle, or read at in the mornings. There aren't too many bungalows, so it was a very peaceful experience, with friendly people from all over the world staying. Amaya is a very friendly and accommodating host, and we wish we could have stayed a little longer in this paradise. Thank you so much for everything!

I booked this hotel as opposed to a hotel on the beach because the property looked very charming. It was! My boyfriend and I had a lovely stay. The grounds are lovely, the staff is very nice, the breakfast is great, and the room was wonderful. You need a car/scooter to access but could very well walk from a colectivo, just bring what you need. We will return :)

this is an amazing place! very small - only 5 or 6 rooms, each separate. The road is dirt and rutted and it is farily hard to see the sign to get on the right road. And, it is not on the main drag for the beach. But, the beaches and the places to eat are within easy driving distance. There is no TV, and the amenities are minimal. Breakfast is pleasant and filling. The hosts work to make your stay nice. Their English is minimal, but, they have a smart phone with a translation app that smooths out communication. But everything is quiet and clean and relaxing and save. We loved staying here. in the evening, there were monkeys and bats in the surrounding forest/ The hosts are eager to please. All in all, we loved this place. It was so nice to be off the beaten path in such pleasant surroundings. There was wifi, but, the signal was not too strong. And, one more thing. The mattress was the best mattress i have ever slept on. I wish i had remembered to look at the tag so that i could replace my current mattress.

The property is paradise. Absolutely, seclusion and beauty.

It's just great. Bungalows are awesome. Staff is very helpful.

The place it self is wonderful, but if you do not rent a car you are totally lost.The street is a off road with terrible conditions, specially after rain. We had hardly no internet connection , no TV or radio in the room and the lobby/ bar/ breakfast room was closed at night , because we where the only guests. T The place it self is wonderful inmidst the jungle., but the hotel is run very unprofessional and we where the only guests and the bar/ reception/breakfast room was always closed at night.No or nearly no internet reception, so we could not use our tablets for films or music in the evening, we had no TV or Radio in the room. We had a rental car, otherwise you are totally lost it is about 2 miles of the carretera with very bad off road streets, actually I lost a rim of one tire not knowing which had cost me another $ 40.00 by returning the car. Unfortunately we had a lot of rain and I tried to leave earlier to go towards Chizen, but they would not have refunded me so we stayed. As I said the place itself is wonderful but they need to get more professional in all the service.

Location was great, very peaceful and secluded. Great place to stay if you want to feel like you're in nature.

I was relocated to Eco Maya Village because the hotel I originally booked through Hotels.com (and had confirmed, so flights were booked) turned out to be "full". Unfortunately we had a disappointing experience. We turned up and were greeted, but nobody offered help with luggage, so my wife lugged bags while the man who greeted us looked on. We had Christmas dinner, which was hugely disappointing. My wife could not have a glass of wine unless she bought an entire bottle of a wine she had never heard of and could not taste first! I am a coffee person, and I have never had worse/weaker coffee than that served at breakfast. And there wasn't even real milk available. I had to use powdered creamer. For the price we paid per night, I would expect far more than this.

WE RESERVED FOUR ROOMS AT THIS PROPERTY. WE STARTED OFF WELL AND IN THE NIGHT WE REALIZED THAT THIEVES HAD ENTERED INTO OUR ROOMS AND ROBBED US OFF ALL OUR CASH, CAMERAS, WATCHES, FITBITS. THE OWNER TOOK A LONG TIME TO GET TO THE PROPERTY. HE WAS SOMEWHAT COOPERATIVE AND THE POLICE ARRIVED TOO. HOWEVER, WE DID NOT RECEIVE A POLICE REPORT AND NOW THE OWNER IS NOT ANSWERING HIS PHONE OR RESPONDING TO OUR NUMEROUS MESSAGES. WE SUSPECT THAT THE ROBBERY WAS AN INSIDE JOB. ADDITIONALLY, THE OWNER STATED THAT A SIMILAR INCIDENT OCCURRED ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, HOWEVER, NO PRECAUTIONS WERE TAKEN. THERE ARE NO CAMERAS, THE DOORS TO THE FIRST ENTRYWAY DO NOT LOCK WELL.

awesome. property and staff. I little confusion at check in but that is getting fixed.

The staff were very attentive, and pleasant, but didn't speak English. The facility is in the jungle, what I would call bohemian- a return to nature. No TV, but the creature comforts/necessities such as AC, and WIFI are there. They serve a complimentary breakfast with fruit and more each morning. Overall it was a neat experience.

Excellent will visit again

Expedia has this motel near the highway. It is not, it is 1-1/2 miles into the woods. Look for the sign right before Akumal.

Nous avons passé une merveilleuse semaine au Maya Eco Village. L'hôtel est situé en pleine jungle, il n'y a que 7 beaux bungalows très spacieux et avec une très grande terrasse, donnant tous sur la vue piscine. Le jardin est luxuriant et très bien entretenu. Nous avons eu l'agréable surprise de découvrir que l'établissement est tenu par Amaya et son mari qui se sont révélés d'excellents hôtes. Amaya ne ménage pas ses efforts pour rendre service à ses clients. Elle s'est montrée d'excellents conseils et toujours avec énormément de gentillesse. Nous avons ADORÉ notre séjour dans ce havre de paix.

Sehr empfehlenswert auch für längere Zeit. Die Atmosphäre ist einfach toll. Dschungelfeeling bei hochprofessionellen Management. Die Freundlichkeit der Mitarbeiter und der Gäste sind unübertroffen. Macht hier richtig Urlaub Leute!

Excelente lugar, sumamente tranquilo y mucho contacto con la naturaleza. Cuenta con todo los requerimientos para tener una estancia cómoda y tranquila. Excelente servicio. Un poco apartada de lugares turísticos, es necesario moverse en taxi y son un poco caros por la zona. Recomiendo la renta de un auto.
