ExcellentSep 201910.0
The staff are wonderful, particularly the breakfast staff Marcial is amazing and gave the best service every single day. The towel boys are all amazing. Reception staff are really polite. The grounds are beautiful, pools are beautiful and the food is exquisite. The food at ollas is better than fuego but all in all a faultless resort.
Only negative is the alcohol and food prices outside of the bed and breakfast rate. And they seem to get a little annoyed if you buy beers from the local shop and sit on the beach even though they are 1/10th of the price.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was wonderful, and the fact that each room had its own large patio with hammocks was awesome. The beach was beautiful and well maintained and the pools were all great. And there’s a ton of shopping and good restaurants within walking distance of the resort.
My only complaint was not being able to get coffee from room service after a certain point in the morning.

Food and Staff Friendliness
The facility is eco-friendly; no tv's or irons, water doesn't get hot (warm at most), dirty pools, lack of diversity with guests. The Palapas are not sealed, allowing for jungle critters and snakes to slip through the gaps in the twigs.

Incredibly comfy rooms and beds. Great facilities and right on the beach. Easy access to lots of bars restaurants and shops.
A lot of single use plastic. They should try and use reusable water bottles and a fountain.
About
Overview
Mahekal Beach Resort is a fun and exciting hotel located right in Mexico's most famous resort town, Playa del Carmen. The area around the property is just as much a draw for visitors as the resort itself.
Playa del Carmen is a town that is always alive with music, events, and natural beauty to enjoy. Those looking to learn and explore can take a short trip away from Mahekal to see the ancient Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza and Tulum, Coba. In the other direction, guests will find world-class coral reefs for exploring while snorkeling or scuba diving.
Mahekal has many rooms that can be arranged in several different configurations depending on how many guests will be visiting. The rooms themselves have primarily the same accommodations, the main differences are the views offered by each one. Guests who want views of the water will want an Oceanfront room, while those wanting to enjoy the lush gardens should book the Treehouse King, with the largest view of Mahekal expansive tropical gardens.
Hungry guests will have plenty of dining options to choose from. There are six full-sized restaurants available, as well as in-room dining for visitors who would rather enjoy their meals in the comfort of their suites. A few of the on-site restaurants include Cocina Restaurant, which offers visitors a buffet of regional Mexican, Yucatan, and Latin American dishes. There is also Las Olas, which serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with nightly specials and international fare.
