Reconexion con la naturaleza adentrándose al corazón de la selva
Todo excelente , fueron buenos momentos y todo el lugar es mágico

Le côté atypique, un cenote très proche du site.
Pas de lumière pour aller aux toilettes dans les bois, pas de petit déjeuner alors que la prestation était comprise, pas de couverture et des douches non trouvées !

We spent some days at Portal Xibalba and let me tell you it was one of the most beautiful experiences we had.
The location is awesome.
If you are looking for peace, this is the place.
The food is delicious, and the people were extremely helpful.
We even took part of a ceremony and it was such a beautiful energy they work with that even it was not in our plans, was one of the best choices we made..
We highly recommend the place and the activities they offer.
Thank you so much lovely people.
Namaste:)

Well, this stay left a long-lasting memory as it was so pure and unique. Hosts were even too kind to us - they believed in spiritual energies and jungle gods. Looks like people are coming to Portal just to relax and disconnect from the world. It was a pity that we stayed only one night but it was enough to get out of civilisation. Nice breakfast cooked in front of us - fresh fruit, pancakes. Amazing architecture of the main jungle building! We also saw plenty of wild animals - tarantula, capybara, etc.
It was sooooo tricky to find this place! First of all, host(s) forgot about our coming :D Perhaps it was my bad because I haven't informed them about our arrival time. So the security guard didn't want to let us in the territory. After that, we found it difficult to find our sleeping place. It is in the middle of the jungle... The host was super relaxed and didn't bother, he showed the place and described how to find the main house (200 m by the road) with breakfast and wifi. It was pretty far from the camp.

1.0
nice domain , beautiful buildings
not so great area (drive thru sort of slums)
very very poor communication with the owners. they had said they would meet us at location x, but ended up not being there (claiming not to have sent the message in first place)and with no cell reception, had to rely on guards calling owners.
no lights in dark on road to facility

being in the middle of the nature … listening to the fauna and the decorations around
the cleaning standards

The place was really quiet and relaxing. We spent 3 days surrounded by nature. The cenote near the house is beautiful. We swam in it every day. The food is amazing and varied and we had three very nice and different breakfasts. We were able to use the yoga mats in the temple and fully relax, but also explore the surrounding area.
We were given two single beds instead of one double bed which we had booked. The toilet and shower are not at all private as the curtains are almost see-through.

Beautiful location, great place to relax and connect with nature.
A bit hard to get to. Easier to tell the taxi to go to pueblo sacbe and follow the signs to Portal Xibalba. Needs daylight to see the signs, as the forest roads are somewhat confusing. Or take the 30x30 collectivo and walk the rest of the 3ay from downtown playa del Carmen.

this property is great if you want a escape from reality. it’s extremely basic and there’s only WiFi in the main house. this place is defo not for the faint hearted! the shower is also cool as well as the temple and cenotes.
the toilet had no toilet roll and it is miles away from food. the mosquitos are bad even with spray and there is no aircon.

the location inside the jungle
A lot of Mosquitoes inside the bungalow and outside
4.0
The unusual design of the buildings, where one can spend time admiring the effort of the builder.
Swimming the a cenote nearby.
Good for dog and cat lovers.
The effort of Rocio and Oscar in this property.
The location - which was far away from the accessibility of public transport. But once you walk out from the area (approximately 2km walking journey) you can take the collectivo van to centro with just 10 pesos!
Wonky phone network - because it’s in a forest.

I liked the peaceful, environment and the architecture of the place.
The guy in the car access, he didn't want to let us in because we didn't know the name of the owner, we booked online and that information was not given to us.
5.0
Most of all I liked the loving exchange of energy with all I met but especially with Rocio and Oskar who are the stewards and creators of this sacred and beautiful jungle paradise.
Availability of a map, either online or on paper, to assist in finding the cenotes and getting from the bungalow area to the main area.

When I arrive nobody was there to give me my room, I was calling the manager and he make me wait 1 hr Just to give me my room, and he didn't had the key, they had cockroaches in the kitchen 🤮
I didn't want to stay there, obviously, and I ask them for a refund, at least half of it, and he told me in person he will do it, and 2 hrs later he called me to tell me he will not give me a refund because it was my personal issues 😑
4.0
The food was vegetarian and very good. The staff was the friendliest and very supportive. They arranged a private temazcal one of the evenings. The room was clean and the bed was good. The nature around was amazing and next to a peaceful cenote. It was a perfect place to integrate my Ayahuascha experience. This was also a great place to do Ayahuascha for me.
Breakfast was not included. Portal Xibalba consists of two parts and the part I was staying in didn't have wifi. So I didn't have wifi in my room. Only cold showers where I stayed.
