Where to Go and What to Do
Cancun
The perfect balance of chill days and electric nights. Lounge by turquoise beaches, unwind at the rooftop bar and dive into Cancun’s vibrant energy day and night.
Tulum
A slower pace surrounded by nature and design. Ride a bike through the jungle, explore cenotes and Mayan ruins, then enjoy a cocktail as the sun sets.
Isla Mujeres
Life moves slower here in the best way. Cruise around in a golf cart, discover quiet beaches and enjoy local flavors. It’s your reset button.
Los Cabos
Desert views and ocean breeze come together here. Whether you want to surf, relax, hike or just catch an unreal sunset, this spot has it all.
Getting Around
In Cancun and Tulum, bikes or short taxi rides are enough to explore.
On Isla Mujeres, golf carts are the way to go and you can rent one through our site or at the front desk.
In Los Cabos, renting a car is a good option if you want to explore the area, but ride apps work well too.
Need a lift from the airport? We can help you book a shuttle on our website or at reception.
Pro Tip: Don’t Overplan
Some of the best memories come from the unplanned. All you really need is a place with good energy, great people, and a solid bed at the end of the day.
That’s Mayan Monkey.
And this summer, we’re saving you a spot.
