Exactly what I needed
The resort as usual goes the extra mile with excellent service and the staff are always incredibly helpful. The new beach club area is exceptional and the beach was immaculate! The one issue are the rooms on the older side of the property. They are in desperate need of renovation and repair. I will return in the future after the rooms have been done.

Caretaking Resort
I had the unfortunate experience of arriving at Banyan Tree not feeling well. The staff sent a Doctor and sure enough I received a positive COVID diagnosis. I couldn’t believe it. That said, there’s no better place to quarantine ! Everyone at the resort took special care of me and helped with everything from getting medications, to cozy clothes and proper foods. I couldn’t have asked for better support from these very kind people. I hope to go back and enjoy the beautiful resort in the future ! Thank you everyone at Banyan Tree Mayakoba for taking such good care of me.

Genuine 5 star experience. Extremely attentive staff, beautiful grounds. Electric golf carts to move you around if you don't fancy the provided cycles. Good choice of restaurants, fun beach club. Exceptional spa. Nothing is cheap though so factor that in to your calculations.
