Leona Vicario Cenote Elvira Hotels

"The best place to stay it is amazing and quiet peace"

"Alma Maya is one of most unique places I have ever stayed at. There is an aura of tranquility and a special atmosphere that permeates the property. My husband and I just returned from our 5 day stay, and it was amazing. The private cenote is beautiful, the domes are wonderful to stay in, with complete privacy and cloud-like beds. The food is fresh and so unique - regional recipes and ingredients are used with a real flair. Off-site trips and on-site massages were arranged for us. But it is the staff at Alma Maya that makes it so special. From the time we arrived, everyone we met went above and beyond to create a special experience for us. Jorge, Cristian, America, Paulina and the rest of the staff went out of their way to make this a memorable trip for us. We hope to return again! If you go, just be prepared for a slow bumpy 25 mins or so of dirt road into/out of the property, and factor that into all your plans. We rented a stick shift tiny car from Localiza in Cancun and it was perfect. Try to arrive during the day, and spend at least 2-3 days there. The massages arranged for us were very good, and they also offer some unique ceremonies related to the Mayan traditions of the area that we’d love to try next time. Our day trip to Puerto Morelos and a guided tour to Tulum and Coba (arranged by our concierge Paulina) were great, but returning back to Alma Maya made us appreciate it even more. Bring a book, lie in a hammock, and enjoy. It is a special place in the Yucatan!"
