We enjoyed being right next to the beach. It was a short walk to the water. The infinity pool near Las Olas Restaurant was amazing. There were plenty of spots to just lounge and take in the beach sights and sounds. The resort was truly breathtaking I also enjoyed the close proximity to a ton of restaurants and gift shopping. Now onto the negative. I felt like because I wasn’t white or attractive that they didn’t care about me as much. Everything was transactional and didn’t seem too genuine. The room although amazing looking and had an ocean view had an AC that would get cold but since it was very humid. It had a stink. It felt very dewy in the room and I couldn’t get much sleep because of that. The humidity however is not the hotel's fault. The dining options on property were very pricey and the food was only ok.

I stayed there for 3 days, it was rainy and my room had leaks on through the restroom lights, I tried to contact staff, they say they would send maintenance, we waited 1hr and nobody showed up. We had to call again next day but since we had all day planned we went out, when we got back they just fix it by out in towels on the floor. They had to fumigate our room due to cockroaches flying on our first night.

Over all the resort was not bad, that is if you want to unplug. Rooms do not have TVs and very limited space for storing your clothes. The restaurants at the resort are good, not great, but good. Unless you are going to a buffet table service is painfully slow. My biggest issue is the booking and final payment. The resort claims they had no record of my first payment (one night), and Expedia said it is collected by the Resort. Expedia has told me they have tried to contact the Resort but are not answering their calls or emails. On top of that, the resort took had me pay the full amount in addition an incidental when I checked in, that is fine. But when I checked out they cleared my credit card for full amount and kept the incidental. When I tried to talk with the resort they just gave me a bunch of BS, so I have now disputed the charges with my credit card company as I have the receipts to prove what the resort should have charged at check out.

This resort is incredible. We’ve stayed other places in playa but we liked this one best so far. Our palapa was on the beach and close to one of the resort restaurant/bar. Staff was great. Friendly and accommodating. There’s shops, bars and restaurants across the street to walk to. We will stay here again. It was a great time! Thank you all!

Wonderful stay at Mahekal. Beautiful location and property, loved our Garden Palapas room, the beach and pools, delicious fresh food. The property is a lush oasis near the lively areas of 38th St and 5th Ave where there are many restaurants, should you choose to eat outside the resort. A bit humid for northerners to get used to, but that was the climate in early October and the a/c and fan in our room were good. There was some confusion with Expedia as to whether the resort fees were included (do confirm before booking), but thanks to Leonardo at Expedia for making it right. Above all, we want to especially thank the great staff at Mahekal - Enrique, Sophia, Guillermo, Wilbert, Ysmael, Daniel and everyone else who helped us to have such an enjoyable stay. Hope to return to this magical place which we can highly recommend.
