Mayakoba boat tour with Fairmont
Had a great experience with IKER on the Mayakoba boat tour. He was very knowledgeable. Would recommend to be able see the whole Mayakoba area and lovely wildlife.

Fantastic Fairmont Mayakoba!
This place is amazing. Starting with the excellent staff and the service. Joyce and Santi are the absolute best butlers! Although I think of them as much more than that. They are like trusted friends showing you how to best experience the resort. Also of note are Vanessa and Oasis at Brisa’s as well as Jorge, Jose, Fernando and Eduardo at the beach. Dmitri is such a good guy- we felt so welcome by him. Actually, I could list every single staff person - everyone is amazing. The food is excellent. The grounds are impeccable. All-around it’s the best!

Boat Tour in Mayakoba
We did the tour boat and we really enjoyed it! Iker was as our captain, and he helped us spot interesting creatures and was very knowledgeable on animal facts. Great captain, ride with him if possible.

Fairmont Mayakoba - Absolutely Spectacular
Travelled with 14 people. This was our second trip to Mayakoba. Absolutely amazing vacation. 12 days in paradise. Our 2 butlers, Rodrigo and Fernando made the trip. They handled all of the cabanas and dinner and excursions like true professionals. Food was amazing. Locations is pristine and secluded. Very safe! We had no problem letting our teens explore the property. If you’re looking for nightlife and partying stay north in Cancun. If you want to relax and enjoy the beach and pools with you family and friends Fairmont is the place to go.

Incentive Event
Our experience at Fairmont Mayakoba was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the level of service, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality set the tone for an incredible program. Every aspect of our event was executed flawlessly, and the resort team consistently went above and beyond to ensure our attendees felt valued and cared for. A very special thank you to Ana Garcia. Ana was an absolute rockstar throughout the entire planning process and onsite execution. Her responsiveness, professionalism, and calm, solutions-oriented approach made all the difference. No request was too big, no detail too small — she handled everything with grace and efficiency. It is rare to find a partner so fully invested in the success of your program, and Ana truly exceeded every expectation. The event itself surpassed what we had envisioned. The setting is stunning, the meeting space is beautiful and functional, and the overall guest experience is elevated in every way. Our attendees were impressed at every turn. If you are looking for the perfect location for a business meeting or incentive trip, look no further. Fairmont Mayakoba delivers at the highest level. We would return every year if possible — and hope to do so again very soon!

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!
