Activities/Attractions: The area known as Costa Maya is the coastal region that extends from the border of the Sian Ka'an in the north to Belize in the South. The area is changing rapidly. Majahual, (also spelled Mahahual or Mahajual) is arguably the center of the Costa Maya, and has been welcoming cruise ships since Dec. 2002 with shops and tourist activities. Other towns such as the beautiful Bacalar with its turquoise blue lake and Chetumal, the capital of Quintana Roo, are not officially part of the Costa Maya, but are nearby and are worth visiting with very good concrete highways to make the drive pleasurable and safe.

The Costa Maya is close to several Mayan ruins. We came to love the Caribbean beaches only after developing a great love for Mayan Ruins. Let us arrange visits to some of the local ruins so you can catch "ruin fever" yourself. Most of the ruins in the Southern Yucatan can be reached on a day trip or we can arrange overnight visits that allow you to see them all.

"So much of our feeling of peace and restfulness is because of our wonderful, restorative stay with you! It was a delight, and we are already looking ahead to our schedules for next spring. Look for an email in the not-too-distant future for our 2007 rez!"

""Thanks again for a wonderful vacation. It's not often that a place can live up to the memories we have romanticized in our dreams - but it was even better than we remembered! I can think of no better place in the world to relax."

"We sure miss the beautiful beaches of Costa Maya, especially the sapphire blue water ... Again, thank you , for we both had a wonderful time staying at MBG, and really enjoyed everyone that we had met during our trip, we met some very nice people. Especially having Dinner with everyone , it really felt like an instant family. Looking forward for our next trip!!!"

"... Just wanted to thank you for your warm hospitality during our stay at Mayan Beach Garden. I don't think that either I or my mom could ever imagine getting to stay in a place like yours! I guess some things are "meant to be" and certainly this one. You made our trip unforgettable in every aspect."

"We think you guys have a great place there. You all are so gracious and accommodating. It is the kind of place that you want to tell everyone you know but then again - you don't. The snorkeling was incredible, the food was incredible, the surroundings were incredible."

"... Our stay at MBG was really a pleasure for us all. If we ever visit QR again, we will definitely schedule time with you folks again. Thanks again for the great time, great food, and your really wonderful staff. Sr. Jorge was especially pleasant and sincerely helpful on all occasions."

"Thank you so much for being such wonderful hosts. Believe me, if we ever are able to afford to come back, we will, so please keep the porch light on."

"Every detail about MBG surpassed our expectations. The accommodations and grounds were exactly what one might imagine when fantasizing of a peaceful tropical paradise. There were so many pleasant surprises that we had not expected. Each meal was a delightful experience. We found ourselves looking forward to them not only for the excellent food but also the pleasure of visiting with the other interesting guests."

"Hector and I couldn't stop thinking and imagining ourselves back in that beautiful Costa Maya. We both just fell in love with it."

General Information: Welcome to Mayan Beach Garden Inn, located about 20 km north of Mahajual and the neighboring Costa Maya Port, which is quickly becoming Mexico's favorite cruise ship destination. We're far enough away from the crowds to provide the quiet and seclusion that you want with comfortable beach cabanas offering a unique mixture of hospitality and seclusion that can't be found on the crowded hotel zone of Cancun or noisy hotels of Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya.

We currently have 5 all-solar powered cabanas, a cabana suite and Beachfront homes for rent. All cabanas have full beach views and large private palapa covered decks.

"We just wanted to reiterate how very much we enjoyed our stay at your beautiful garden. It was absolutely everything we dared to dream and so much more. Your warm hospitality, coupled with your professionalism, along with your friendly and helpful staff, made our stay the best possible experience."

"Just wanted to say thanks for such a wonderful stay. After the boys got home they bragged about the experiences they had. I truly think that they enjoyed themselves. . .I just wanted a nice family vacation where TV's, playstations, or cell phones were nonexistent."

"We had such an amazing time with you and your staff. I keep trying to find ways that we could make a living and life there fulltime."

"We miss you even more. And the sun. And the see. And the rays. And the snakes. And the ruins. And the people. And the food. Thank you, for making this so special again. Your place is like balm for the soul. "

"We had an absolutely fabulous stay with you all and already talk about when to go back. Both MaryAnn and I tanked after we got back even tho the trip was uneventful: we simply missed you all, the place itself, and the community you are building. We were touched especially by Beau's generosity and warmth; please do say hello to him and his lovely wife for us. You and Kim were wonderfully welcoming and we enjoyed Dave's company (Nickie too) immensely. The "Garden" was a visit to paradise for us ... we haven't stopped talking about the food!"
