Everything - the room, the staff, the food, the pool, the grounds - was excellent. We stayed here 30 years ago and loved it. I do wish they would reopen the entrance to the ruins that is on the grounds though!

Super hospitable staff, excellent service and concierges that really went above and beyond. It felt a lot like those classic old traditional hotels—which is consistent since Mayaland is one of the first at Chichen Itza and has a long history of catering to a star-studded array of guests on the past.

A charming, peaceful and elegant hotel, that clearly had a story history with many dignitaries and movie stars having stayed there in the past. The room was large and very clean with the exception of some strange fragments of something maybe from the ceiling in the tub. We really enjoyed the restaurant and the pool. There is a spectacular collection of peacocks roaming around by the restaurant.

We loved our stay at Mayaland - huge room with balcony overlooking the Chitchen Itza observatory. Yes some of the resort needs updating (work is underway but wasn’t an issue) but the place oozes charm and character and the history of building is felt everywhere. Shame that the entrance to Chitchen next to the hotel is closed at present but the free shuttle was great.

Still don’t have the full amenities since they last opened but we still had an amazing time. The property has so much potential to be very luxurious. The staff was great (they provided us a tour to Chichen itzá and transportation) and we really enjoyed the drinks at the bar and the food at the restaurant!!!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The staff is courteous and the grounds are intriguing. You can tell it was once an amazing place. But it’s fallen into quite a bit of disrepair. Also the private entrance to the ruins no longer exists. We stayed in the “modern” building. Our room had the tv removed, but the wall brackets for it were still on the wall. The room came with a nice soaking tub for two, which was nice. If they’d removed the brackets and patched the walls it would have been fine. The hotel common areas are better cared for. The restaurant is very nice. So it’s an odd mix of beauty, bits of luxury, and neglect, but nothing unsafe or dirty. I’d stay again.
