Mayan Princess Beach Resort West Bay

Micheal E My wife & I want to take the time to say “THANK YOU SO MUCH” to all of the Staff for a wonderful time at the Mayan Princess.

After our first visit in 2010 and then again this year (2011), we can see that there have been many improvements in all areas!
The accommodations were wonderful, the service from all of the staff was excellent, all of the workers were very courteous, polite and willing to do anything to make you feel welcomed.One on the biggest changes that we saw was the quality of the food that was served. WOW....After the first meal...we knew immediately there must be a new Chef in the building!!!
Every meal was absolutely wonderful.

We THANK ALLL OF YOU for the wonderful week of FUN & SUN!!!
We would highly recommend this resort to everyone. After traveling spending time on the beaches of Hawaii, Jamaica, Florida & many others....none can compete with the accommodations of the Mayan Princess and the BEAUTIFUL BEACHES on the West Bay of Roatan.

THANKS AGAIN and we hope to see you again next September.

This was my first trip to a tropical paradise. We were 3 couples.
Initially we had reserved rooms at the Infinity Bay. Two days before our trip, our hotel was changed due to "unforeseen problems" and we had the choice of 2 other hotels.... we chose the Mayan Princess.

Because of these problems, we all received complimentary fruit plates and bottles of wine in our rooms.... as well as VIP bracelets giving us access at anytime to all the resorts and bars on the beach. With this luxury we were able to check out all of the resorts and we all agreed that the Mayan Princess was the better choice.

Upon arriving we had a nice welcome from the staff as a staff member handed each of us a "welcome daiquiri". We were offered assistance with our luggage and we headed straight to the beach which was located only a few steps from our room. It was GORGEOUS! The softest sands were constantly being cleaned and groomed, chairs were always well kept.

The room was nice, the bed was broken on one side, but still liveable. A nice sitting area both inside and outside. Weather was gorgeous the entire time so we spend VERY little time in our rooms.

The Dive Shop was great, very friendly service, the snorkelling right off the beach was fantastic.... we must have done it 2-3 times a day.

We met a great man with a water taxi who brought us "downtown" to go shopping, and took us to several beautiful snorkelling locations.... and after a few days he even brought us to his house on the beach to meet his family and new baby. The locals are all so friendly.

The food was alright for me, but repetative. For the friends I travelled with (who have all done all-inclusives before) the food was dull and tasteless.

My favourite aspect of this island is that when the cruise ships dock, all passengers have "their own area" on the beach. If they want to relax in front of any of the hotels, it costs 10$ a day. so our beachfront was never crowded. very relaxing time.

The nightly entertainment was ok. There was an attempt every night to keep us entertained with karaoke, small bands or a fire show.... the same fire show every other night....

Overall, we all had a great experience and are DEFINITELY returning to Roatan in the future.
