The boat tour we took with Iker in Mayakoba was absolutely incredible! I highly recommend this activity if you’re staying at the Fairmont.

My family & I just returned from a 4-night stay at the Fairmont Mayakoba. We were familiar with the property as we'd stayed there a decade ago. However, Fairmont has done some substantial renovations. We stayed in a complex near the beach (800 series) and the accommodations are terrific. The staff was also wonderful, embodied by Alfonso, a porter who could not have been kinder or more helpful. Definitely won't wait a decade to return!

We had an amazing 4-night stay at the Fairmont Mayakoba! Due to availability we had to pay for an upgrade to a casita and we were glad that we did, it was lovely and in a great location. Bottled water was plentiful and always available in the room. We enjoyed every meal we had and the breakfast buffet had every option available and was top quality! The resort staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The beach was beautiful and the beach side service was very good. They even came by and offered cucumber slices with a cool towel to rest your eyes, mango popsicle refreshments, both free and a very nice touch! We did not mind the golf cart service to the beach, which was a good distance from the rooms. They were easily found and it was a very pleasant ride as the resort property is a tropical jungle gem. The other highlight (not to be missed) is the on-property mangrove boat tour, again at no charge! Be sure to make a reservation for one of the morning tours, best animal viewing at that time. A great experience at the Fairmont Mayakoba!
