"There was a beautiful garden with great seating. Loved that you had filtered hot and cold water, it avoided me having to buy/use plastic bottles. Live plants in the rooms was a great touch. Very accommodating staff - was able to store my luggage while they got the room ready.
Suggestions - Shampoo and body wash are too strongly scented. Please find something a little milder. Both products gave me a headache."
"Stayed 3 nights. Very quiet coz it was in the middle of nowhere.
They lied about the 5 or 10 minutes walk to see the ruins.
It was the old entrance. You need to hire a taxi for 15 minutes ride to be in the entrance and it’s not walkable.
You have to order a taxi from the front desk coz you are in the middle of no where. No stores, no human outside, if you need food or water you can only buy in the hotel.
Overall it’s ok if you wanna be alone in nowhere and you bring all the things that you need."
"Wonderful place, beautifully set in a peaceful garden. Very friendly and welcoming owner and nothing was too much trouble. Fantastic swimming pool and breakfast was delicious. Wonderful stay. Thank you so much"
"A heavenly place, beautiful, with delicious food and with a gorgeous, Italian vibe to the place. Our room was lovely, and the pool was a great way to start the day. Service was attentive and warm. Highly recommend."
"Shambalanté is truly a hidden jewel in the heart of the Yucatecan jungle—a sanctuary for the soul. From the moment you arrive, time seems to slow down, replaced by a deep sense of peace, quiet, and connection with nature.
Everything about this place invites you to breathe more deeply, to let go, and to reconnect with yourself and with the nature around you. The surroundings are simply magical, and the atmosphere feels both grounding and gently transformative.
And the food… absolutely wonderful. Thoughtfully prepared, nourishing, and full of flavor, it complements the entire experience beautifully.
If I had known just how special Shambalanté is, I would have stayed a full week instead of just three days. Thank you to Doris, Ricardo, and the rest of the team. I will definitely be back."
"Lety and Caesar, the owners, were wonderful hosts! Our bungalow was spotless and had everything we needed.
We had an issue with our car and Lety called a mechanic for us. The homemade breakfast served outdoors under the palapa was amazing! Lety even shared her lemongrass tea she had brewed that morning. The grounds are beautiful, peaceful and serene. Lovely stay!!"
