As their many loyal guests and travel partners know, Shangri La Caribe was purchased in December, 2008. From the beginning, it was known that a new name would need to be selected for this very special resort, rich in history and memories. Early on, the new owners, managers and associates began searching for and speaking to their guests about names that might properly convey the nearly unexplainable feeling one experiences vacationing with us.
The word “magical” surfaced over and over. To be in harmony with this beautiful Mayan region, they chose the name MAHÉKAL, which is the Spanish pronunciation for Magical. Over the last year, their staff has been working to completely refresh the resort’s rooms and making improvements that will pleasantly surprise you. They have taken great care to retain the resort’s genuinely warm and gracious staff and to maintain the soul of one of the Riviera Maya’s last truly authentic beachfront palapa-roofed resorts. Come and experience the magic of MAHÉKAL for yourself!
In terms of overall merit, we have given this property a rating of 3.5 stars.
