What are people saying about Costa Maya

Dale_A, Aug 2026

Beautiful and worth it!

1st off, finding the pick up for us was a bit confusing. Get the directions and ask people where to go. It's a little bit of a walk to the Check in. We were offered a cold water bottle right away. It was very hot. Have hats and sunscreen. Juan was our tour guide. He was very polite and friendly. He shared lots of things about the Mayan culture. Our drive was an hour. We stopped and Juan picked up Honey pineapple and mango. You could use the restroom for one American dollar. Our van was full of fun people. Juan answered any questions you had. He had more water, soda, beer and snacks in the van. Everybody had plenty. We got to the pier and backlar was beautiful. We choose to spend an hour in the water. The Water was crystal clear and it was all white sands underneath and the temperature was warm. You didn't need a mask or a snorkel. It's not very deep either. We had honey pineapple. The sweetest I've ever tasted in. The Mango was extremely sweet as well. There was tequila and just a lot of fun. After our boat ride, we went into a little restaurant and ate the food was wonderful very tasty very authentic. Juan made sure we all had what we ordered and then some. We enjoyed the beef fajitas. We received a coffee cup for each family with the tour guide label. This was a unforgettable trip. Thanks Juan!

Great day in Costa Maya

Elisio and Paul our guides were fantastic. It was a wonderful day. They were very knowledgeable and kept their eye on everyone and made sure they had the entire group before going to the next spot. My family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed it all and we would recommend to anyone looking to learn about the Mayan culture, experience local roadside stands and have some beach time as well. It was a day well spent!

Authentic Beachfront Mexican Cooking Class Cafe Jaguar Costa Maya

ASHLEY_E, Aug 2026

Very friendly, great customer service, and delicious food

The workers were very welcoming. We arrived early so they gave us water bottles to take with us while we walked the boardwalk. Just my husband and I were signed up so it ended up being a private experience. The teacher took time to explain everything including how we could adjust the recipe to replicate at home. The food was delicious, and they make accommodations for dietary restrictions. Definitely a 10/10 experience.

Costa Maya Shore Excursion Chacchoben Day Trip

Janette_A, Jul 2026

Once in a lifetime experience!

To our family, this was a once in a lifetime experience for us. We booked this excursion during our RC cruise. The meet up point is a bit of a walk especially in over 90° weather. It took us between 10 and 15 minutes to get to the meet up point. When we arrived, we were provided with cold drinks and they were available as needed. After waiting a few minutes, we were put in a tour van and it was about a 45 minute drive. I think it also helped that we had a fast driver which we did not mind at all. When we arrived, there were some vendors and a small taco stand whipping up some food. not once did we feel that the vendors were pushy. The park was very well organized. Our tour guide Siomara was very knowledgeable and smart. We did lots of walking and a bit of climbing so this might be a difficult excursion for someone who has issues with walking or climbing. The ruins were just as we expected and we even got to see some spider monkeys! It took about one hour or so to walk around the whole park with the tour guide. On our way back, the tour van stopped at a local pineapple vendor, and the tour guide provided sliced pineapple for everyone. Overall, we had a great experience, but as a sidenote, if your cruise ship arrives at a later time, you won’t have too much to do because this excursion pretty much takes up your whole day. When we got back to the meet up point. We probably only had a little over an hour to explore the market and then we had to get back on the cruise ship by 4:30 PM.

One Day Tour to Chacchoben Mayan City and Bacalar Lagoon with a Certified Guide

Getting Mayan in Mahahual, Puerta Costa Maya

We went to Costa Maya to see the undersold Mayan Chacchoben ruins, which are surreal and not to be missed, and Elliot, the Mayan with the Scottish name!, did not disappoint! The Bacalar lake experience offered several varieties of delicious tacos and the beautiful, but rocky, lake itself was a refreshing swim after the epic morning!

Bacalar Lagoon 7 Colors Excursion from Costa Maya Cruise Port

Richard_S, Jul 2026

Amazing excursion

Bacalar lagoon is absolutely beautiful!! This excursion was 100% worth it. We went on Monday, July 20th, 2026. It's a good 1hr20min ride from Costa Maya port to the lagoon and same time for drive back, but we still arrived back with around 45min to spare before ship departure time to be back on the ship. The guides were amazing, friendly, and educated us on the culture and areas. Answered all our questions. The tour itself involved plenty of tequila shots, bottled water, the BEST and SWEETEST pineapple and a good lunch at a local restaurant where we all chose beef, chicken or pork tacos. If you are cruising, don't miss out on this excursion! My 6yo had a blast swimming in the shallow waters and it was really neat to see the various cenotes and pirates channel. It is a decent walk from the port as you have to walk around the shops and then behind them. Not a bad walk for us in our 40s and my 6yo, but would've been a little taxing on my parents in their 70s if they would've gone as they have bad knees/hips. They could've made the walk to the meeting point, just would've taken a little longer with a rest break or 2. The actual excursion is minimal walking and a nice gentle boat ride. The only other thing that "may" be difficult for those who don't walk well is getting up/down the pontoon ladder to swim if they choose. Again, we thoroughly enjoyed this excursion and would 100% do it again! Thank you for such a wonderful time!!

Chacchoben & Bacalar Combo Excursion Costa Maya

Renae_S, Jul 2026

A+ excursion!

What a wonderful excursion! Our tour guide, Leo, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and shared the history and interesting facts about our different stops. The Bacalar Lake was the highlight of our entire trip. The water was so blue and perfect for swimming. I highly recommend this excursion. Also, a big thank you to our driver Erick, who stopped to get us a fresh pineapple to eat on the boat ride, and who drove us everywhere. Thank you for everything.

Chacchoben Mayan Ruins Excursion

Stephen_S, Jul 2026

Excellent Tour and Tour Guides

This was a family trip for 13, ranging from age 10 to 80. Our tour guide Juan Carlos and our driver Harmayer were excellent. They took extra time with us since one of our group needed additional assistance. Juan's knowledge was outstanding. Both Juan and Harmayer were more than guides for us, they became the 14th and 15th member of our group. The ruins were beautiful. Highly recommend!!

Costa Maya - Pitaya Beach Open Bar, Snorkeling, Massage and Lunch

Heather_D, Jul 2026

Hospitality at its finest! Must do adventure!

From the moment we walked in we knew we picked the best spot! No other places had service or chairs or the service that we experienced! We had other couples and family coming from other spots that they were disappointed in to find the one we pick to be perfect! Bathroom was well lit and VERY CLEAN! Family owned business that truly felt like we were at home with our own family! DO NOT BOIK ANYONE ELSE! This is a must experience!

Costa Maya Sport Fishing

Dwain_P, Jun 2026

Fishing trip

They worked super hard to get us each fish! Seas were very rough, to be expected. Not for the faint of heart when on a smaller boat with rough seas. We thought it was a blast! They cooked up our catch after with tacos and ceviche which was absolutely amazing!!!!! Caught 3 mackerel, 2 of them were close to 3’ long.

All Inclusive VIP Beach Break Pass at Nacional Beach Club

Christal_D, Apr 2026

Would do it again if longer port time allowed be sure to confirm before booking

Be sure that you will actually have a full 8 hour experience. The food was great, service was great! The vendors peddling all the goodies was a little overwhelming when we were trying to enjoy the time there. And some shops closed up before we were able to visit.
