Hotel Information

Mahekal Beach Resort’s Playa del Carmen accommodations provide guests with a unique and authentic resort experience. The resort’s palapa-style bungalows envelop guests in a carefree, bohemian atmosphere, complemented by mesmerizing ocean views, secluded garden and tropical foliage surroundings and upscale design details. Each room type — Garden View, Ocean View, Treehouses, Penthouses, or Ocean Front and Beach Houses — features individual outdoor terraces and personal hammocks, with hand-laid stone pathways leading to each individual doorstep.

Ocean Front Beach House accommodations are located directly on the beach — just 10 steps from the water — and some come equipped with personal plunge pools or moon showers. Top-floor hotel rooms in Playa del Carmen feature natural palapa ceilings, inspired by Mayan architecture.

At Mahekal Beach Resort, guests enjoy an “unplugged”-style vacation experience: guestrooms do not come with TVs, but they do include state-of-the-art Wi-Fi access and a service-focused telephone system directly connected to on-property services.

Guest can select from a Half Board plan including breakfast and dinner, served daily with the flexibility to exchange dinner for lunch on a daily basis, or room and breakfast plans depending on the season and room category.

The coastal resort town of Playa del Carmen has a unique way of doing just about everything. From live music venues to trendy dining and dancing spots along 5th Avenue, if you’re looking for a different Mexican experience on the incomparable Caribbean coast, Playa del Carmen is the place to be.

Accessible to the ancient Mayan sites of Tulum, Coba. Chichen Itza, and the famed eco-archaeological park of Xcaret, adventures are only a short drive away. And don’t forget the vibrant marine life, underwater caverns or cenotes, and nearby coral reefs – all of which make this area a world class diving and snorkeling destination.

Nestled between dense Riviera Maya jungle and spanning 920 feet of pristine beach, the Mahekal Beach Resort takes the Playa del Carmen experience to a true authentic level, embodying a Swiss Family Robinson feel, with its authentic bungalow-style accommodations on the beach, or viewing the turquoise water or in the resorts lush gardens, blending Mexican tradition with design-forward details. The resort’s guestrooms and lobby highlight touches of Mayan culture, while pool, restaurants and bars create a welcoming vibrant feeling – a combination unlike anywhere else in Mexico.
