Casa Mayawell

Stayed at Casa Mayawell for a total of 9 nights and had a great time! The room is pristinely clean and cozy, and you have a lovely view of the garden from the balcony. The compound's private garden is great for spending time and comes equipped with a pool, as well. The area is calm and has a local neighborhood vibe to it. There are lots of small shops and kiosks nearby and you can get to the city center and marina in about 15 minutes by bus. The owner Maya is amazing, she was extremely caring, accomodating and friendly. Gave me lots of good recommendations regarding restaurants and shops in the area, regularly checked up on me to see if everything is fine, if there room needs extra cleaning or if there's anything I need. The place is truly a hidden gem and I'd recommend it to anyone!

Can't really think of anything. For shopping at larger supermarkets (Soriana, Chedraui, Walmart etc.) you'll have to make your way downtown, which takes roughly 15 minutes by bus (the bus stop is a 10 minute walk from the apartment), so you might want to buy everything you need while downtown during the day. In the area there are lots of smaller corner stores and restaurants though :)

Very friendly and active host. P

Close to bus terminal and airport. The owner was extremely friendly and responsive.

The room was extremely hot when we arrived because the air conditioner had not been turned on in preparation for our arrival. We did turn it on immediately to try and cool the room, but it did not cool quickly enough. We had to leave it on and go walk around outside for almost an hour, and still the room was too warm when we returned. It just didn’t seem to work efficiently.

The stay was amazing! Maya is incredible helpful and super fast responding questions.

The room was clean and pleasant and a good value for the price. The bougainvillea out front is pretty. It's a locals neighborhood, with cobblestone and dirt roads, and small food stands and tiendas. So it's not fancy, but I liked it. Everyone I met was friendly and helpful.

I was disappointed the pool was closed for cleaning on Mondays because we had planned to spend some time there.
