Lovely Spa Experience

I had an amazing massage at the Andaz Mayakoba that left me feeling rejuvenated. The spa services are incredibly relaxing, and the environment is so peaceful. I truly felt like I could unwind completely. Whether it was the soothing atmosphere or the skilled therapists, everything contributed to a nice experience.

The dining options at Andaz are simply fantastic! I was particularly impressed with the breakfast at Cocina Milagro, which offered an very nice array of fresh juices and delicious dishes, including poached eggs in a rich tomato sauce. The quality of food is great and offers something for everyone, making each meal an enjoyable experience.

Kids' Club Fun

The Kids Club (Kimbo) was a game changer for our family! I loved that there were so many activities for the kids without extra charges. They looked forward to their time there every day, especially engaging in fun activities that kept them entertained while I relaxed by the pool. Such a great feature for families!

Our room at Andaz was amazing, with beautiful views of the lagoon. I particularly enjoyed the private beach access, making it easy to step out for a swim. The room features were well thought out, providing both comfort and elegance. It was the perfect retreat after a day of exploring.
