The Fairmont Mayakoba is a 5 star resort. We were there for 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Check-in to Check-out was amazing with no issues. Customer service is excellent. Everyone was very kind, helpful, and happy to help. We upgraded to a Casita room which was so worth it. The resort is absolutely stunning. It's like being in a different planet. Transportation by bike or golf cart was easy and accessible. Never had to wait long. The food and drink were amazing as well. We will surely be back soon.

The location of everything at the resort was excellent. The beach was just far enough away where you could take a bike ride using one of the resort bikes, walk, or shuttle. We spent most of our time there enjoying the beach club, using the SUP's kayaks, snorkel tour and swimming. We can't wait to come back!

We recently stayed at the Fairmont Mayakoba to celebrate my wife's birthday and had an exceptional experience. One of the highlights was playing golf at the spectacular Camaleón Golf Course, which offered a challenging and enjoyable round amidst stunning scenery.
The service at the hotel was impeccable, with staff going above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable. There are numerous dining options available, catering to a variety of tastes and preferences, making each meal a delightful experience.
The large pool area is well-designed, providing ample space so that guests never feel crowded. This was especially important given the many activities available for kids, ensuring they had plenty to do while we relaxed.
The gym and spa facilities are top-notch, offering a wide range of equipment and treatments for those looking to stay active or unwind.
Overall, I highly recommend Fairmont Mayakoba for anyone looking to enjoy a luxurious and relaxing vacation without needing to venture out frequently. Everything you need is right on the property, making it an ideal destination for an stress-free getaway.

The property boasts an exceptional location and is well-maintained. The staff is notably courteous, friendly, and highly accommodating. The premises are truly enchanting with beautifully preserved grounds. Our experience was exceptional, and we were pleased to find the environment to be LGBTQ friendly.
A special acknowledgment goes to the exceptional team at La Cocina, where we attended a cooking class. Their service was outstanding. Additionally, we would like to recognize Jessica for curating an extraordinary itinerary for us.
Undoubtedly the premier choice in the Riviera!

Place is amazing. They definitely need more food options but other than that we had a great trip. Lovely for family’s. One of my favorite things was coming back to an amazing clean casita. Housekeepers do a lovely job. 10/10 for them. Golf carts are paying attention all the time for guests. Just lovely!! Beach was always clean even though we had rain for 7 days straight.

If you have small children or older adults, there are many stairs to navigate to get to the lobby and from the lobby. That is a problem because two restaurants are there: Hix and Tauro.
The property is falling apart. It is dirty. It floods when it rains. It is slick when walking.
Ricardo, the front desk person we dealt with was horrible. I have never despised a front desk associate more than him. Rude. Condescending. The worst. Oliver is also horrible and drives too fast.
The property stays alive by several employees that are excellent, specifically:
Estephania Estrada, who in my opinion, should be a manager because she is the only one who understands both the needs of the hotel and the guest. She is service focused, professional, and interested in both the guests and the property and you can tell she loves her job. I just loved working with her to try to improve my stay. She is lovely and a great asset.
Alejandro was awesome and very helpful in showing us around the property and getting us around.
Elias Chavez at Tauro (the ONLY decent restaurant)and our server, Adan were AMAZING. My husband killed a huge cockroach walking along the entrance to Tauro. Edy by the pool was fantastic and funny. We loved him. Def not 5 stars. Maybe 3.5. Ceiling is falling apart in many places. Activities are bad and the director, Enzo disclosed he no budget to do anything. We were bored. There are only 2 places for breakfast and they are the same every day.

Our stay at the renovated Fairmont Mayakoba was marked by excellent service and facilities. The staff, particularly our concierge Jessica, was superb, facilitating everything from tee times to transportation effortlessly.
We chose not to go all-inclusive, preferring to explore dining options across the linked resorts. Despite high recommendations for the Saffron and Tequila Bar at the Rosewood, it was Fairmont’s own GAIA and Tauro that truly impressed us with their culinary excellence.
The resort’s gym was top-notch with Peloton bikes and was always clean. Our room was beautifully updated, spacious but lacked a fridge, which was slightly inconvenient, though a coffee maker was provided.
Be prepared for high prices similar to U.S. rates. The main pool was under-staffed, contrasting with the well-maintained and staffed beach club. Getting around was easy thanks to plentiful golf carts and free bikes.

not for families with kids! ok for couples. the kids club was a nightmare. first they are only open a few select times a day and the kids have to participate in mandatory activities. in other words, if your kid is too big for legos, too bad so sad. they are forced to play. and they aren’t allowed to cry. one of mine literally cried for three minutes and the sitters were all upset. funny part is that there was only 3 kids total in the kids club with 4 staff members. Carolina the manager is very young and honestly incompetent. she has no idea what she is doing. i doubt that any of them have kids by the way they were acting. very very young. and don’t know how to adapt or soothe kids. like do your job and play with my kids for an hour so i can relax a minute. the bartender in the pool bar was such a jerk and he literally rolled his eyes at a couple next to us for ordering pina colada’s. the life guard was an hour late to the slide every day. it was a mess. the food was great though and all adult things were nice and fun. great safe location. rooms were nice. pools were plentiful and nice. the steak house tauro was the best.
