We just got back from 10 nights at the Mahekal. We got a free upgrade as it was low season, which was great, though the view from the balcony was poor in one room. Check-in was smooth, cleaning was thorough and regular and the facilities were great. No problems finding a spot at the pools or the beach. The only downsides were that my son lost his key card on the second day and the receptionist wanted US$15 for a new one, which is a ridiculous price — many hotels do them for free and we had spent so much on the rooms that this seemed like and extra “squeeze” to me; the other was that they wanted to charge US$60 per room to check out three hours after the checkout time — again, another “squeeze” to get more out of their customers. This is why I have marked them down for service. That said, the entire resort is all about US-style tips and extra payments here and there, so I guess the mentality simply fits in with the local ethos. Lovely hotel though

We had the absolute pleasure of staying at Mahekal Beach Resort in Playa del Carmen, Mexico for the entire month of August, and it was, hands down, one of the best travel decisions we've ever made. August is considered low season, but that worked in our favor — the resort was peaceful, beautifully lush, and we got to truly immerse ourselves in everything it has to offer. We stayed in the penthouse room, which offered breathtaking views of the beach, infinity pool, and one of their restaurants. Waking up each morning to the sound of the ocean and tropical birds was nothing short of magic. But what made our stay truly unforgettable was the people. The staff at Mahekal are some of the most genuine, kind-hearted, and attentive individuals we’ve ever encountered. My husband, our 9-year-old daughter, and I felt so taken care of — like we were truly welcomed and looked after every day. A special thank you to Abraham, one of Mahekal’s supervisors, who made such a lasting impression on us. He checked in with us daily and went above and beyond for our daughter — surprising her with treats and organizing a beautiful early birthday celebration that she'll never forget. His warmth and thoughtfulness were a highlight of our stay. We also want to recognize the incredible restaurant and pool staff — truly some of the best humans we've met!

If You Value Hygiene and Sleep — AVOID THIS HOTEL This was the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had. I booked it thinking it would be better than others in the area since it was more expensive and had decent reviews — but it was an absolute disaster. Our room was infested with bugs, including cockroaches that hit us in the head while we slept. The actual beds had bugs crawling all over them. I woke up with bites all over my legs, and I’m convinced the beds had bed bugs or fleas. We had to switch rooms FOUR times, and every single one had bugs in the bed. There were blood-stained sheets and towels, a toilet that made an alarm sound after flushing, and broken soap dispensers. The only toiletry was a pathetic 2-in-1 shampoo — bring your own. The toilet noise made it nearly impossible to use the bathroom in the middle of the night without waking everyone up. Mosquitoes were everywhere — room, hallways, even the dining area — so you’ll need bug spray and After Bite just to survive. When we reported all of this, the staff did nothing. No apology. No compensation. No concern. The only redeeming thing was the food, which was actually good. This place tries to wear a 5-star disguise, but it’s not even worth 1. If I could give zero stars, I would. Do not stay here.

The property was was absolutely beautiful! The staff went out of their way to make sure me and my wife had a great time! It’s the second time we’ve been to Mahekal. Can’t wait to go back.
