What are people saying about Costa Maya

Chacchoben & Bacalar Combo Excursion Costa Maya

Alison_C, Oct 2026

Book it!

This was honestly the best way to experience Chachoben and the Lagoons. We arrived early to Chacchoben before any of the tour groups came and it was so peaceful and a really special experience. Our guide Caro was very knowledgeable and tailored the tour for our family. It was a perfect cruise excursion and we really utilized our time wonderfully!

All Inclusive VIP Beach Break Pass at Nacional Beach Club

Terea_H, Oct 2026

Worth it!

Nacional Beach Club was great! I went with my spouse and 6 year old daughter. Everything is included (food, drinks, towels) and the staff was excellent and accommodating! They even reimbursed me for my taxi because the driver didn’t want to wait for them to pay him so he demanded we pay. When I told the beach club what happened, they gave me cash to cover the cost. I also want to mention that you will encounter vendors asking you to buy things however they aren’t pressuring and will go away with a simple “no thank you”. I love the low key small atmosphere and overall we had a great experience. Definitely would come back!

Bacalar Lagoon 7 Colors Excursion from Costa Maya Cruise Port

Christy_B, Oct 2026

Best Day in Costa Maya

Loved this excursion. I was nervous about booking an excursion where it was over an hour away from the port, but the back to ship guarantee helped me decide to go ahead and go for it. Our guide and our driver were excellent. Joseline, our guide was with us the entire time.. from the car ride, the pontoon boat, the restaurant. The lagoon was beautiful and the whole family said it was worth the drive. The Pineapple- let’s just say one wasn’t enough, it was so good! One thing I wish I woulda known was that you cannot wear sunscreen in the lagoon, had I known that I would have covered up a little more as I was already burnt from the day before. The drive there and back went much quicker than I thought it would. I will say there is not a lot to see most of the drive, but we all took a little nap on the way back. The tacos that were also included were very good as well!

Maha Massage Oceanfront Massage Experience in Costa Maya Mahahual

Darlene_W, Oct 2026

Maha massage

Loved the massage and facial. Treated us to cold water and the massage room has a/c which was much needed. The room was clean and private with a balcony view of the ocean, wine was good! The location was challenging to find, taxis had no idea where it was but Connie answered the phone and directed us to her. Very pleased with our day, we also got to explore the market nearby. Very pleasant experience and face was so smooth afterwards, no pressure to buy skincare afterwards. I loved supporting this women owned business!!

Bacalar – 7 Colors Lagoon Excursión Costa Maya

Alisha_H, Sep 2026

We had an incredible time...

We had an incredible time with Jerry, Hasan, and Francisco. They were prompt, communicated everything clearly and promptly, and guided us from our meeting point until we were back at port. They greeted us with water, introduced themselves, drove us around an hour into Baccalar while introducing and sharing the culture of the region, stopped for pictures, showed us the lagoon where we swam, fed us, and returned us to port with plenty of time to spare.

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

Kim_C, Sep 2026

Great little place.

Pitaya beach was a great little place. The fish tacos were great and drinks were great. They set you up on your own little loungers. Your massage is at your leisure. The vendors were a little pushy and come around constantly but it was fine. If you said no, they didn’t persist.

Chacchoben Mayan Ruins & Bacalar Lagoon with Certified Guide

jeffreyinps, Sep 2026

Fantastic Local Owners Tour

We had a great tour! The driver Edgar and the guide Romeo were fantastic. Super friendly and knowledgeable. We saw the ruins and a Mayan Expert provided so much information about the area and history. We then went on to Bacalar Lagoon where we had a very nice lunch and cocktails. The lagoon was refreshing for our afternoon swim. Kayaks were available but we didn’t use them. This is my second time using this tour group. We were in a small minivan with 17 people vs a massive bus that the cruise line will use.

Danielle_E, Sep 2026

This was great got to see...

This was great got to see a bit of the ruins and still had plenty of time at the lagoon. It was nice that it was a small group. Carlos and Huichi were great. Huichi went above and beyond bringing us what ever we needed. The lagoons waters were refreshing but definitely bring water shoes it is slippery. Lunch was good too.

Patrick_B, Jun 2026

Great tour to give you the best of local history and fun activity

This is a great tour that gives you a chance to learn about and see parts of ancient culture, while also giving you the opportunity for swimming and kayaking in a pristine lagoon! We are a family with 3-thirteen year olds and they loved the tour. Elliot was our guide and he was amazing, a wealth of knowledge and a friendly, awesome person!
