Mayan Monkey | Cancún

5 Hattie Parker - 4 months ago

Faustino’s yoga session I took as part of my stay, was the very best thing about the entire place.
I really enjoyed the yoga practice. He created a sense of calm and relaxed us into some really beautiful poses as part of the practice which were just what I needed after 13 hours of flights. I felt the tensions of my body melt away and he even conducted the class in both English and Spanish at the same time.
A wonderful experience, I am very grateful to him.
Just don’t miss the sunrise beach yoga like I did- because the front desk told me it was at 8am! Because I think that practice on the beach would be heavenly.
But the good thing is Faustino runs classes throughout day and so you can really have chance to have your morning yoga at whatever time you wake up!

Have fun!

Sociable, Chic, Modern, and Accommodating!!!

Mayan Monkey creates such a social setting every hour of the day. perfect hostel for meeting new people from all over the world. Complete breakfasts at the cafe/bar, relaxing yoga in the morning. games during the day, karaoke in the evenings, and nightly parties. Not to mention the service is impeccable.

The Mayan Monkey provides a chic, modern, clean ambiance, with active social settings that Mayan Monkey has come to be known for. Additionally, if you forget anything they have very affordable replacements at the hostel shop.

Had an amazing time here. Short walk to the beach. Restaurants and pharmacy are across the street; grocery store is a block away.
Travelers from all over the world staying here u0026 are some of the best people on the planet. Enjoyed meeting folks from Russia ???????? , Switzerland ???????? , Norway ???????? , Canada ???????? , England ????udb40udc67udb40udc62udb40udc65udb40udc6eudb40udc67udb40udc7f , Scotland ????udb40udc67udb40udc62udb40udc73udb40udc63udb40udc74udb40udc7f , etc.
There is usually a security person around the entrance. I experienced one male, that seemed to be local, trying to get women to buy him food or drinks and trying to get ladies to invite him to their space. I alerted security and he was escorted off the property. Turns out there was another female with him. ????
Other than that short uncomfortable experience, the stay was wonderful. The showers and bathrooms are just right. The sleeping space is comfortable. The front desk might have a blanket for you - it is also chilly at night in the rooms.
Loved it here and will be returning for New Years. ????

This hostel has Selina beat! Unfortunately I couldn’t extend my stay with short notice, as they were fully booked.

However the reason for my poor review is because I emailed to ask specifically about parking and was told that they do provide parking. When I get there it was a small parking lot made for 4 cars, shared with a restaurant. When I go to leave there are maybe 8 or more cars and I had to navigate out of the spot with great caution. There was a parking attendant who tried to guide me out into the busy street but honestly acted more as a distraction then a help. There was a collision and this ruins the whole experience. I hope to stay again and improve this review!

A true party hostel with many visitors from all over the
world and even a few families. I checked in late at night
and had to pay 30$ more than since I booked though
Hostelworld. I find that a little sketchy.
The hostel is huge and the rooms are very spacious. It
has enough storage, two bathrooms and a AC. The
common area is very nice and the pool a great
refreshment. Every night there is party until 12.
I was shocked by the prices, but in general in Cancun.
Stay here for Party

The best hostel we have ever stayed at! It’s clean, the staff is amazing, and there are so many fun activities. It’s located in a very convenient area.

Extra shout out to Román for being the most fun bartender ever! He always has a smile on his face, friendly, quick service and is very attentive!

1. I was a disk jockey for 33 years and played a lot of music to entertain people and the music here is so loud you simply can't communicate with anyone. If there are only 6 people in the bar they still have it as loud as it can go literally driving people away

2. Book the room on hotels.com I accidentally booked the wrong day and ask if they could just apply it to this day nope I had to forfeit what I had already paid and then pay again double the price what the room was for the other booking.

3. The room smells like open sewage due to some sort of plumbing issue. It was so gross you could hardly brush your teeth in there. This was in their private room.

4. They will give you free drinks for positive Google reviews. If you read some of the reviews you'll see that the experience people have there is totally different from the ones they paid for.

5. I had to give them my driver's license just to get a room key.
