Fodor's Expert Review Mayan Beach Garden

N. Carretera Costera Majahual–Punta Herrera, Mahahual, Quintana Roo, 77940, Mexico Fodor's Choice

There isn’t another hotel for miles, so this solar-powered B&B offers blessed isolation. Beachfront cabanas have kitchenettes, king beds, Wi-Fi, and private decks; inspired by the ancient ruin Yaxchilán, upstairs beach-view rooms have Mayan artwork and unique touches like hand-painted sinks and wood-framed mirrors in the large bathrooms, as well as king beds and sleeper sofas. In-room massages, cooking classes, diving tours, and fishing trips can be arranged on request. A three-night stay gets you a free cooking class, and a weeklong stay earns you one free night (in low season). This tranquil property mainly attracts guests over 50.
