Maka Hotel Boutique

Daniel gave us great suggestions for places to go, and one of them led us to one of the most amazing cenotes ever. The rooms and atmosphere were beautiful, the price was great, and everything in town was nearby. The bartender and young woman helping run the restaurant were amazing too. Everyone was super friendly and laid-back. We had a great experience and would absolutely come back. Thank you!

The hotel looks amazing and the bed was extremely comfortable, but don’t stay here if you want to sleep. They have parties on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, with music so loud the bass made our bed vibrate. Even on nights without a party, the bar music was very loud. When I told the receptionist, she just laughed at us. If you plan to party until 2:30am, it might suit you. I’d book somewhere else, and I’d never stay here again.

The rooftop was lovely, and the drinks and food were good. Local food vendors, a gas station and a convenience store were just a few blocks away. We also got to spend time with Bertha, one of the dogs there. I loved the adults-only feel, and the whole place had a nice vibe. The staff were great and helpful from check-in through the end of the stay. My only complaint was poor water pressure in my room. I’d recommend it and would come back.

It really is a nightclub and hostel as well as a hotel, especially on busy nights. The vibe is trendy and young. When I realized it wasn’t my scene and that I’d be staying on their busiest night, they wouldn’t let me cancel two days ahead. The pool has no ladder or shallow end, so brace yourself when climbing out! Some updates were needed, and with employees everywhere, it seems they could be put to better use maintaining the hotel. Still, I felt safe and welcomed, and people took care of me as a guest in this very young, lively place. I lost my phone in my cab, and everyone really stepped up to help. The mixologist at the bar is worth watching, very talented.
