Loved Casa Mayaland. It was a secluded oasis where we could come back from the beach, hang out in the pool, have some drinks, great conversation, make dinner and just chill. It was beautiful and located on the quieter side of the island. Which allowed us to go and to end and experience the whole of isla mujeresšļøš š¦©

We will treasure our memories from our 8 nights at Casa Mayaland. We loved the location tucked back off the main roads and the easy walk to the trail alongside the ocean for sunrises towards Punta Sur each day. The best part was the reprieve that the beautiful pool area provided from the heat and humidity of the midday. We loved eating outside at the long table and also appreciated the air conditioning for sleeping comfortably. Definitely recommend getting a golf cart. Montse was very kind and helpful connecting us to the whale shark tour (amazing experience but also rough for those who get seasick). We enjoyed Kin Ha beach club nearby. The coffee bus around the corner is sweet. The Joint had great mojitos. Green Verde, La Lomita, Mango Cafe, fun atmosphere at Samura. So many special memories made. Beautiful sunset at Playa Norte. World Cup games at Snappers. All in all a truly relaxing vacation!

This property, managing staff and Mariana are the total package. We coordinated grocery delivery (fridge stocked before arrival), golf cart delivery in our driveway, and also a bday cake delivery. The concierge service was top notch. The included cleaning service for our stay was top notch. We enjoyed grilling almost every evening by the pool. Internet was fast. The surroundings felt safe. We loved our stay. Mariana was exceptionally responsive. Thank you for hosting our family.

After a dozen trips to Isla, we finally decided on an airbnb vs hotel. Casa Mayaland was perfect! Having the option to cook and grill at the house saved some money, and we were able to pack less because of the washer and dryer. We felt very safe and secure, and the house had everything we needed (ample towels, coolers, cooking equipment, spices, etc.)
Host Response
We sincerely appreciate the care and respect you showed our home and for leaving everything in such great order. Our cleaning team was also very grateful for your kindness and generosity.

When we got there our refrigerator wasn't working which was no big deal as we wanted to go out to our favorites places to eat right away. But it was replaced fast. The outside area was very nice! It was a great place to come to relax after exploring the island
Host Response
Thank you for choosing Casa Mayaland and for sharing your experience. Our main goal is the satisfaction of our guests, and thanks to our team, we quickly resolved the issue and replaced it, as we aim to prevent any discomfort for our guests. We sincerely appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you again at Casa Mayaland.

This place was absolutely beautiful! Loved everything about it! Our family enjoyed the private pool and hottub each evening. Even had a bbq one evening. Felt like home and by far one of the best host have ever dealt with start to finish. Had a mishap injury during our stay and host communicated and offered help every step of the way. 100% recommend and will return!

We had a wonderful stay at Mariana's place. It is very well equipped and comfortable, feels cozy, and has everything you might need. Arrival is easy, check-in was very quick, and we really enjoyed the welcome gifts that were waiting for us. We will definitely be back on our next visit to Isla Mujeres!

A beautiful gem of a property. The pool is absolutely gorgeous and in great condition. Plenty of patio furniture and lovely outdoor spaces to gather and chill out. All of the outdoor areas are completely private and very quiet. Meticulously cared for, beautifully furnished, and decorated with everything you could ever need and everything in great condition. The washer/dryer and the blender arenāt something you find in every rental. Great plumbing, water pressure, thoughtfully placed lights and furniture. Comfortable beds with nice linens and plenty of pillows. The location down near Punta Sur does take a long time to get to, and the side streets can be very rough in a golf cart! So just be forewarned. Mariana was a lovely hostess, very accommodating, and we would absolutely return to this property in the future!

Casa mayaland was the perfect getaway for our family of five. The casita comfortably housed our teenager leaving plenty of room for the other kids and us. The pool and hot tub was pristine and relaxing with water feature and beautiful nightlights. We made a delicious dinner in the well equipped kitchen and large beautiful island. We dined under the palapa listening to the palm trees and the sounds of nature. The south side of the island is quieter with easy access to what is, in our opinion, the most Beautiful part of Isla Mujeres. True five-star cuisine exists on the island including Mar-cello fish market and Rancho Capricho. Our host, Marianna, made sure that all travel logistics, golf cart, and the ins and outs of her beautiful home were communicated with warmth and detail. The inhabits of the island are among the kindest and friendliness we have encountered. Finally, the guacamole kit waiting for us at the home on our arrival was second to none!! We will be back!

Casa Mayaland was everything we could have imagined for relaxing and enjoying an authentic Mexican home experience. We felt right at home and very safe. Mariana is so kind & helpful. Guacamole bowl was amazing. The beds were very comfortable! The waterfall over the pool is a brilliant addition as it eliminated neighboursā noise, early morning dogs & roosters etc. Shaded pool area is much more spacious than it appears in the photos. Hot tub was lovely! Beaches & ocean were warm & amazing. It was truly wonderful. We cannot wait to return! Nearby restaurants were all outstanding for food & service & experience: El Rancho, El Burracho Burro, Ulan, Areia, & Samura (sushi!).

We had a wonderful stay! The place was spotless, well stocked, and incredibly comfortable. We were able to check in early, which was such a nice bonus, and were greeted with a beautiful fresh guacamole basket and cold XX beers ā such a thoughtful touch from our host. The pool, hot tub, and patio area felt like a true oasis and a perfect escape from the busy downtown. We couldnāt have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much!

Cannot recommend this place enough! The house was exactly as described with all working amenities- the perfect place for a group of friends or family to hangout and relax! Our group had so much fun for our stay! Every single person gushed about this being the perfect airbnb set up and how we would absolutely stay here again! Mariana was extremely friendly, responded quickly and honestly..was overall the best host iāve had with airbnb or any stay iāve been at. Not one single complaint, everything was absolutely wonderful! Mariana goes above and beyond, without a doubt. 1000/10 stay!

We had a great time at Mayaland! It's the best place we've ever stayed on the Island, and we've stayed at many places as we visit several times a year. We were greeted by Mariana with a homemade guacamole kit - so good with all the fresh ingredients (you can also order them to be delivered anytime!) It's very private and peaceful, roomy, clean, jacuzzi works excellent, wonderful pool in the huge outdoor area (including kitchen area). Mariana is the BEST host! Very kind, welcoming and responds almost immediately if we had a question about anything. Our flight was delayed for 8 hours, and Mariana let us stay for a few more hours at no charge! We realize and understand that she was able to do this because no one's checking in that afternoon.. But still, it's a huge added plus when hosts try to help (most we encounter do not!) and Mariana is different, and we can't thank her enough! We'll be back again and will definitely choose this place as our first choice! 10 STARS

Mariana's place was amazing for our trip with two couples. The home has absolutely everything you need for a stay on the island. Upon arrival we were greeted by Mariana herself and with a guacamole kit which hit the spot after a long travel day. You could also order the kit via delivery during your stay. The home was very clean and the hot tub was our favourite! We also liked the location as it was not only beautiful but peaceful and private. It was about a 15 minute golf cart drive from the main beach. We all loved our stay and our only regret is not staying longer! We will definitely be back!

We loved our stay in Marianaās beautiful home. We had three young children in our group, so it was perfect for us to be on the quieter end of the island (only 10/15 min taxi to Playa Norte/downtown). The outdoor pool and kitchen area was great for us and looked exactly like the photos! Idyllic! All beds were very comfortable and bathrooms immaculate. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you could need. We loved Rancho Capricho restaurant for tacos and cocktails - several minutes walk from the house. Please note that many restaurants & bars in Punta Sur close early during low season! But there is plenty to do within walking distance, and a great way to see the whole island is by golf cart. Thanks Mariana for our stay and for being such a helpful & responsive host throughout!

The stay in Mayaland was outstanding, the home is beautiful and after a day wandering the island is the perfect place to relax. We did not use all the amenities like the outdoor kitchen because we were trying all the restaurants near and far, the pastries at Chedraui are a must purchase. Rancho Capricho a short walk from the home has the best breakfasts and tacos. We used the pool everyday with the heat of Isla this was a blessing. You must have mosquito repellant a local taxi driver told us they are here all year round, we even purchased citronella burner coils for the outdoor space which helped. Mariana thank you for the warm welcome when we got to the island and keeping us informed , the pool and garden people were respectful came in the morning and left after doing their job. We appreciated this so much. We will return again !!!!

Casa Mayaland was amazing. It is such a great space and really felt like a home away from home. Very spacious, welcoming and clean. The beds were so comfortable. Our hostess Mariana was so sweet, friendly and always available. She met us at the house and gave us a quick tour of the house and pointed out the little details of what we might need. We would definitely go back!!! We already miss the island and the casa! We highly recommend Casa Mayaland!

Mayaland was a lovely place, to stay. The surroundings were peaceful and private, yet only a 15min drive/ride with a golf cart to the centro. Swimming pool and jacuzzi were fantastic, and the whole outside space has a great atmosphere that instantly relaxes. Living areas were spacious With everything you need. Hosts were great, with help and suggestions for trips and local restaurant recommendations. Would highly recommend, and would love to come back.

Loved our stay here! Extremely private and we appreciated how far away it was from the hustle and bustle of the city center. We rented a golf cart all week and had so much fun driving around the island. At one point we walked around our neighborhood and found some fun restaurants and beautiful views. Definitely check out Punta Sur and pay the admission fee for the park. Absolutely stunning views. We stayed with two toddlers and the pool and space was great for us to play in and move after a day out. A/C worked great. Filtered water was a helpful feature of the home. Jan Carlos was super responsive and helpful when suggesting restaurants and activities and he helped book a taxi for us when we were leaving.

I booked this Airbnb for my bachelorette weekend and it totally delivered. We loved hanging in the amazing courtyard and the house was comfortable and spacious. The only thing was the hot tub, once we figured it out it was fine, but you have to keep pressing the jets in order for it to heat up so it takes quite a while to get warm enough. But it was super nice after about 20 mins šš»

For our family, Mayaland was everything we wanted in a vacation house! The south end of the island was wonderfully quiet at night. The house, the decor, the palapas and the hot tub! Inside the house was very comfortable and welcoming! Having a big kitchen and laundry is a total game changer and is a huge plus, especially for a family! The neighborhood also offered so many options for dining and beaches, just a quick walk away. We would certainly book again!

We had a great time here! It looks just like the photos and is very spacious. The kitchen was equipped with everything you could need. We loved being in a quieter area of the island but would recommend a golf cart for getting around easily. We travelled with our two kids (1yr and 3yr olds) and that was a bit challenging as there were spiky caterpillars in a tree above the deck and a cat that prevented us from having the doors open.

This house was absolutely perfect for our trip. We had four adults & two children (both less than 10 years old) and this location/ house was amazing for our stay. We had a secluded and safe backyard with a beautiful swimming pool and hot tub. The south side of the island was relaxing and free from packed touristy restaurants. We used a cab and the longest wait we had was 7 minutes until pick up and was much more affordable than a golf cart rental. The only areas for improvement was our washer did not work and by the end of our week, our clothes were in dire need of a washing (with that being said our host did offer to take our clothes and launder them free of charge). And the house was tidy when we arrived, but also very lived it. It worked great for us with our two little kids, but it wasnāt a picture perfect house. We would definitely stay here again if we ever return to Isla Mujeres!

Casa Mayland is a paradise on a beautiful island! One of the nicer properties I have stayed at on the island. The peaceful sanctuary is perfect to get away from the hustle and bustle of playa Norte. The southern area of the island has really grown since I was there last with bars & restaurants in walking distance of the Airbnb. Only concern is the Mexican flannel moth caterpillars, they leave quite the sting. Donāt touch. Would stay again!

Overall, above average place. There were a few hiccups though which is why Iām giving 4 stars instead of 5. The pool and hot tub are great. Manager communicates well. Clean house and plenty of space. The hiccups⦠washer and dryer missing. Had to deal with air drying towels the whole trip. New appliances were delivered half way through they stay but not connected. Propane was low. Lost heat on the water heater and hot tub but the truck showed up that evening and filled the tank. A gardener showed up unannounced for a few hours and watched us a bit as we swam in the pool which was a bit weird.
Host Response
Hello Derek, I'm sorry about the washer machine. I wish I had known to take your clothes to the laundry service daily without extra cost. I have talked to the gardener and asked him not to watch guests when he goes to work. He is very sweet and inoffensive, but I can understand if it was uncomfortable for you. It is very important to communicate in time for any situation so we can do whatever is needed to make your stay very pleasant. Thank you for coming to Isla Mujeres.

A poisonous caterpillar crawled onto my momās towel while we were in the pool and when she leaned on it, all of the spikes from the caterpillar went into her hand and injected venom. She was in excruciating pain and had to spend the night in a hospital in Cancun because a doctor on the island was worried the venom would spread to her heart. The property manager sent someone to fumigate but it did not work. At least 50 poisonous caterpillars fell from the tree next to the pool and at least a third of them were still alive and were crawling all over the place. We obviously did not feel comfortable staying at the house anymore and we explained everything to the owner. We had 5 nights left and the owner only offered a refund for about half of the nights left even though there were poisonous caterpillars all over the pool area. Not to mention that we had a 3 year old and 7 month old baby with us. We lost almost 1,000 dollars from the airbnb plus medical bills. It was a nightmare.
Host Response
Hello I'm sorry, but nature showed up with caterpillars all over the island that week. We, as property managers, did everything we could to help. Giving you back 3 out of 5 nights was a generous deal that no one hotel would have given back. Again, I'm sorry for the unexpected caterpillars during that week of the year. Thank you for coming to Isla Mujeres.

Marianaās place is beautiful and in a really lovely part of Isla. The pool and courtyard made the place amazing. The kitchen is really well stocked and cooking at home was a cinch. The air conditioner in the master bedroom, however, was broken during our entire stay and the master bed hard as a rock with a dent on one side. Those two things made the master very uncomfortable. I did notify the manager of these issues day after arrival and they sent someone some time later who showed up without warning during a business meeting. Had to have them return laterā¦they came the next day, spent hours fixing it. It blew cold for a couple of hours then stopped working again. We were near the end of our stay by that time, so I just lived with it for the remainder of our visit. It was challenging to sleep well in that room. The rest of the place was wonderful and we had an amazing time on the quiet end of the island. Only tiny rocky beaches here, so if you want sand close by, head north. š
Host Response
Hi, It is very important to communicate any issues through Airbnb so the owner knows about them and can take action immediately. We pay for a team to prepare the property for your stay and fix any issues promptly. The bed has a blue foam mattress from Costco; it can't be any softer. I will check personally on this matter; it is the first time someone has complained about it. Guest should not suffer any kind of issues if they are addressed properly. Thank you for coming to Isla Mujeres.

Great house in a nice peaceful area. Loved the pool and hot tub. The casita was nice to have for those that want their own space. The deck needs some repairs but while we were there they were already bringing in new boards to replace it so itās on the owners radar and shows they are taking the steps to maintain the house.

We had a wonderful stay. The back yard truly is a tropical oasis.The hot tub saved our trip when a cold front passed through. Our 1 & 3 yo boys enjoyed the pool daily. We felt right at home and really liked the vibe of this property. The dirt roads getting to it are a little bumpy but well worth being off the main road, felt very safe and private. The kitchen is well stocked and easy to prepare meals at home. We also liked spending the day at KinHa a couple blocks away, which has a little water slide and pool kids can use if you eat a meal there. (Also paddle boards and swim up bar for adults). We were here a week and felt like that was a good amount of time but could continue to explore as there are so many good restaurants and the playa Norte is easy to spend a whole day at. Definitely rent a golf cart, we used it every day for exploring and getting groceries. We visited one of the islands nice and very clean public parks with our young kids on Calle Cherna. Note: hours are 5pm-10pm

Casa Mayaland is a beautiful escape from everyday life. The patio and pool area provide a lush oasis away from the hustle bustle of the main tourist areas. The roof area is great for viewing stars, distant thunderstorms and beautiful sunrises. And most importantly, the mattresses are fabulous! Additionally, the concierge is readily available through text for recommendations and any situation that may arise. We definitely will return on our next trip to Isla Mujeres.

The place was beautiful & perfect for us. Pool was cleared of flower petals daily by crew, which was nice because the wonderful surrounding blooming trees dropped a lot of petals. Kitchen was very well stocked, linens clean, beds comfortable, and lots of towels (thank you!) for bath and beach. AC units were perfect & quickly cooled rooms when turned on, which was nice because I always turn them off when leaving for the day, however I do leave the fans on. As a result, there was never any musty smell upon our return. Alejandro was responsive to all needs and Jan Carlos very helpful when we got a little bit lost upon arrival. We totally loved our stay and relaxed and enjoyed the beaches. Also, Punta Sur is a must and we recommend walking along the sidewalks by the sea.

Mayaland was a beautiful secluded oasis in punta sur! We loved the location with being able to walk to some restaurants and day clubs and also carted into playa Norte quickly. We were surrounded by other beautiful houses and felt super safe. Our check in was seamless even though my travel got delayed by an entire day. Our POC, Jan, was incredibly responsive and super helpful⦠even arranged for our taxis to pick us up for our departure. The house was pristine. We loved the pool and hot tub and used it daily. The little cottage (MIL suite) was such a cool addition and came in handy for all of us. We easily got to playa Norte and every morning we walked across to the beach and watched the sunrise. We absolutely loved it. Will definitely stay here again!

This was an awesome, relaxing place! It was a super clean, beautiful home located away from everything, so it was nice and quiet. We loved spending time in the pool after a long hot day in the sun. 10/10 would highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet, private getaway. It is really close to Punta Sur, and Garrafon de castilla, so that is a Plus!

This might be my #1 Airbnb experience ever. When you book sight unseen, you expect to be at least a little disappointed vs. the picture- NOT HERE. This place is even better than it looks in pictures. I was blown away by how beautiful, private, clean, and well appointed it was. The house had everything. The outdoor kitchen was amazing, the indoor kitchen had everything- I mean, even a waffle maker! The house is beautifully furnished, and the kitchen and all three full bathrooms are super modern and clearly very well cared for. The washer & dryer were great to have on a tropical vacation. I don't think the roof terrace was even mentioned in the photos/ad, and it was an amazing surprise- gorgeous views of sunrise and sunset. One morning I was up there having coffee and three wild peacocks came to visit with me! We had an issue one day with the water, and they came right away and set it right. AND- no massive list at the end, we tidied up a bit, but they literally took care of everything.

This house was amazing to stay at! Great communication at check in and throughout our trip. We received timely responses and even had a golf cart dropped off at the house for us. The home is beautiful and has plenty of space. The outdoor/ pool area is amazing! So beautiful and peaceful. Two amazing restaurants close by, a taco shop and borracho burro. Thereās also a convenient store next to the taco place. There are pharmacies close by as well. Garrafon Castillo the cheaper place is an amazing place to spend a day as well. Is within walking distance or a short golf cart trip away. Also, a nice drive down the eastern coast with beautiful views are just a street away.

Beautiful home and very responsive host. The outdoor pool area was stunning, especially at night when the colorful lights were on. Home is well equipped, and there wasnāt anything that we lacked. Be mindful that you are on a small island that is still being developed. The island had power issues (at no fault on the hosts) but the hosts and admin team were quick to communicate and very kind. They had a good property management team that would check on our needs to make things right when needed. Would highly recommend. Located in the south, more peaceful part of the island.

This place was definitely a hidden gem. We have stayed at other places on the island but this was are favorite by far. Home is clean, spacious and very private. The beds were all very comfortable, kitchen was great and the outside area is beautiful. Rooftop view is great as well. We had a night of heavy rain which caused the power to go out but it came back within a few hours. Also had an issue where the water was turned off to the house but they got somebody over within 10 minutes and quickly fixed the problem. The communication was awesome throughout. Every question or problem we had was answered within minutes and somebody came right over. We will definitely stay here again.

My family and I spent 5 days at Casa Mayaland. It was absolutely incredible, the house was clean and tidy. The staff was very generous in helping us arrange transportation to and from ferry as well as around the island. Cannot say enough good things about Isla Mujeres and now Casa Mayaland. House very comfortable for staying with a child as well. We will be back!

Casa Mayaland is a true retreat, offering just the peace we were looking for. Totally private and safe with only the birds to hear, singing throughout the day. Our host was kind and super fast with communication. When we needed help with a burned out pilot light she sent someone right over. We rented a golf cart for the week and although the dirt roads to the house were a bit torn up and rocky, we managed with our daily trips to the beaches and restaurants. Depending which part you go to, Playa Norte and downtown are about a 16-20 minute golf cart ride. We loved Punta Sur though and everyday we watched the sunrise and did yoga on the grassy cliff thatās a 1 minute walk from the house. We soaked in the hot tub daily, cuddled the local kitty, cooked on the perfectly seasoned cast iron skillet, enjoyed the cool AC and big kitchen, enjoyed the cozy beds, soft towels, and pillows and just breathed in the salty fresh air. The weather was perfect all week and I t really was paradise!!

This property is a bit secluded. But offers good amenities and a over all relaxing place to spend time if your not out enjoying the island. We had plenty of amenities and appliances.

MUST STAY HERE. This place is a hidden gem. The pictures do not do it justice!!! It is truly a million times more beautiful in person. Plus, extra amenities like washer/dryer and a cozy little bungalow by the pool that can host 1-2 people. The location is perfect. Itās on the south side of the island, which we loved how quiet and safe it felt. Last but not least, Jennifer our concierge was absolutely amazing!!!! She was so attentive, communicative and helpful, went above and beyond to accommodate us! Would absolutely recommend anyone to stay here.

Great spot to stay on the island. Jennifer helped get us set up and was quick to answer any questions we had while there. Highly recommend renting a golf cart to get around on the island. Looking forward to returning

We stayed at Gabrielaās house for 4 nights, we are a family of 2 adults and 2 teenagers. The house is very charming and well equipped. The best part is outside, a little oasis where itās never too hot.Ā Really nice to hang out there and enjoy the pool and hot tub. The villa is on the south part of the island, which we really enjoyed. A lot more quiet than the northern part. However, you will definitely need a golf cart to get around. There is a very nice beach just a short walk from the house beside hotel La Joya. Jennifer was very helpful and was always available. We had a wonderful stay!

Mayaland was great! Very comfy and clean. A generous supply of towels for the house and pool as well as bottled water for the water dispenser was greatly appreciated. Definitely will go back!

A little piece of your own Oasis- Casa Mayaland that is. Fantastic hosts, comfortable and wonderful decor, and the best part is the outside oasis! Pool, hot tub, hammock, outside eating, and even a view of the ocean on top of the roof! Easy walking access to Punta Sur and the coastal walkway which we utilized a lot enjoying the wonderful views. We are a family of six- we did not have a car nor rent a golf cart - call a taxi or even the hosts can call one for you! Make friends with the wonderful people of Isla Mujeras! It was a vacation of a lifetime!

The house was as expected and very nice to spend time in after a day of being out on the island. The kitchen had everything you needed to cook a meal even though we didnāt utilize it. The beds were comfortable, the air was cold, but the outside area was the best part. It was nice to sit and relax in the hammock or under the trees in the seating area. Just be sure to rent a golf cart because you will not want to wait for a taxi to come and pick you up. Itās located on a nice quiet street.

This property is beautiful, well stocked, and the staff is amazing. From the very beginning, Angel helped us get checked in and out. Super friendly and helpful. Alain was very responsive for any issues or questions we had during our staff. We did need assistance with a couple of things, but they were quickly addressed. The house itself is well appointed, and we felt completely safe during our stay. The pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen, and patio area were well used. The location is in the south of the island, but we chose it because we wanted to relax. There is still plenty to do, and you can get anything you need without venturing to the north side. We found a great place called The Joint. Make sure you make arrangements for a golf cart. They are indispensable. I highly recommend you visit if you can. My friends and I had such a great experience, we will definitely return as soon as we can!
