Doggies paradise

Just being able to open the door to let our dog run free on the beach was truly amazing and unique. She loved exploring the many exotic plants and smells, lying on the beach and napping while we were resting in the hammocks. Maya Luna is not only a tropical paradise for pets but…

Great place to relax at the beach!

We were at the Maya Luna Hotel in June and stayed for three nights. The location is awesom. The beachbungalows are direct on the beach 15 meters away from the ocean. The rooms had everything we needed, although no airconditioning but it was not too hot so that was okay, too. It…

AMAZING DIVE IN MAHAHUAL!

If you want to dive around Mahahual, this is definitely the place you have to go! In this hotel, besides very nice beach cabans and a. very good restaurant, you will find Luis's dive shop, a very cosy caban right on the beach. I strongly recommend Luis Amezcua as a dive master.…

Family Visit for a Week

Stayed for a week with 2 kids who were 9 and 11. I was impressed with everything at the Maya Luna. The staff was very friendly and helpful as well as being patient with our poor Spanish. The owners were there most days and very helpful. The price is very reasonable for what you…

Pros and Cons

Wish I would have read the review I am about to write before I stayed! Really had high hopes for this place as a way to escape the crowded Yucatan beaches, but there are real tradeoffs if you stay here. Pros: Away from town but not difficult to travel back and forth by car,…

Response from mahahualmexio, Owner at Hotel Maya Luna

Responded 5 Feb 2018

We are sorry you're stay with us wasn't what you expected it to be. Pictures and videos on our website and of this part of the Costa Maya could have shown you in advance that the beaches in this area have indeed a lot of vegetation. Maya Luna is in an environmental protected area. The ocean at the time of your stay had lots of distinct colors, colors of blue, green and at the shore in reddish. Behind our hotel there is growing a lot of mangrove and the roots of the mangroves color the water red. After heavy rains (we had a “late” rain season) the water rises and floats into the ocean. This mangrove water has a lot of nutrition hence there is a lot of fish and an enormous amount of different kind of birds fishing there. Quiet a spectacle if you love nature. (For wide beaches without vegetation people might be better off in Cancun although all the beaches at the hotel zone of Cancun are artificial…but you won’t be bothered by vegetation nor by red water because they have cut nearly all the mangrove in order to build hotels.) At 400 meters in front of Maya Luna passes the second biggest reef alive in the world, the Meso American barrier reef. This, for some, is part of the attraction. We are sorry that the location of the reef was too close to the shore and that you could not swim out as much a you wanted to. It is true that the menu of our restaurant is not especially vegan friendly. We adapted one dishe for your special wishes but if you take out some of the ingredients it doesn't add up to the real taste.

Thank you. I was lead to believe there was a new owner who took over last year and had built a 5th unit?

Hi, we build Maya Luna in 2003 and are still the owners. We did not build a 5th unit, but the 5th accommodation is a private suite located on top of the main building..

How many units are there on this site?

Hi Thanks for your interest in our hotel. Maya Luna is a small resort with only 4 beach front bungalows, each one of them with their private roof terrace with view over the ocean. They are located on both sides of the main building, where our restaurant is located. On the first floor of the restaurant is our private suite with a big terrace with view over the ocean.

Is there breakfast served in the mornings?

Hi Yes we serve breakfast from 8 till 10 in the morning! Lunch 1pm till 4 pm and dinner 6pm till 8pm. Breakfast is included in the roomrate!
