ザ マヤ マウンテン ロッジ

The staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was great. The property's jungle setting and landscaping made me feel like I was in a jungle. And while not a nightly occurrence, having howler monkeys howling the first evening really set the tone to remind me I wasn't in California. A special callout to the staff at Fiona's restaurant, the food was great, but talking with the staff there was super fun. I would recommend Maya Mountain Lodge to anyone and everyone.

My room with a thatched roof was cozy and comfortable. Lots of hot water in the shower! Staff very friendly and helpful. I ate in dining room a couple times. Food and service excellent! Within walking distance to food stores, bank, some restaurants. Look forward to staying here again.

Warning: This place will cause you to forget all your worries and relax in nature! What a fabulous place to lay your head for a few nights. Nestled amongst the jungle and mountainous terrain is Maya Mt Lodge. There are hiking trails that head down to the river, definitely explore these. The pool is a welcome relief after a hot day of exploring nearby archaeological sites or exploring the town. You hear the birds and cicadas constantly and it feels like you are in the jungle. The cabins are spread out enough to feel private but also there are enough rooms in each cabin to have chats with fellow travellers. The staff here are amazing. Cesar at the front desk is an absolute legend! He is knowledgeable and helpful and can book just about anything you need - tours, transport, dinners, you name it he can do it! I'm sure if you asked him to book you a skywriting lesson, he would be able to do that! Julie (and Rey) in the restaurant were so accommodating, cooking me delicious vegan food on request, definitely check out the on-site restaurant! It is walkable to the town (about 30-40mins depending on the heat and your love of uphill streets!) or you can grab a taxi. I'm really glad I chose to stay here and not in the hustle and bustle of the town (even though it is a bit of a walk/taxi to get into town there's not actually that much there), and I would not hesitate to stay here again. Bring a good book and just enjoy all that Maya Mountain Lodge has to offer!
