Jorge and Jezer provided exceptional service to me and my friend. Jezer taught me how to do standup paddle boarding and Jorge took us for a board tour. We had amazing time.

I have been going to the Fairmont Mayakoba since 2008. This trip was, once again, exceptional. We had two butlers at the Heritage Place (Alejandro and Danie) that took amazing care of us! Highly recommend this place to any family looking for a relaxing experience with all the amenities!!

We could not have asked for better service or a better view! We came down for a girls trip and everything exceeded our expectations. Edgar was very kind, attentive to our needs, and would go above and beyond with everything we needed help with. I would highly recommend this for not only trips with friends or a couple but it’s a great family spot as well.

Jezer was wonderful! He made us feel very comfortable and he ensured us that we would be safe. He’s very empathetic towards others. We really enjoyed ourselves, great customer service!!

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!
