Our stay here at this property was amazing! The service was outstanding and the staff were all so friendly, helpful and very professional. The food and the drinks that we enjoyed here were all so delicious and presented very well. We absolutely loved our floating breakfast! That and the meditation ceremony were our favorite! We were able to unplug and recharge here in our jungle villa. Biking to the local Cenotes were so much fun! This stay was fun, safe, and definitely an experience to be had!! Highlight of our trip!

Think twice

This place is a nice stay if you want to visit for the day or at most one night. When we first arrived, we were greeted with a drink and a small tour of the place. I had reserved a private dinner for my boyfriend’s birthday, they never followed up on it. When I did ask, their excuse was that we were never in our room. Absolutely ridiculous. Our pool was very dirty upon arrival, leaves everywhere and a ton of mosquitoes and bees inside. We tried to ignore the little things, however, as our trip progressed our power kept going out, our water was out for an hour and no warm water till the next day. On an attempt to go out to the city when we returned and asked for a pick up from the road, we were immediately told that we were coming back to our room to late, keep in mind this was only 11pm. We were thrilled to explore this place but sadly we will not be returning.

Beautiful property

Great stay! Beautiful location and pools. We loved the temazcal ceremony, floating breakfast, and signature dinner. Only snag was that the WhatsApp concierge number was not very helpful the couple of times we reached out to it because apparently the person who monitors it does not live on property. Better to visit the front desk in person if there is a question

The hotel is clean and personnel is extremely nice and accommodating. Breakfast included is very good, and you can take yoga clases in the mornings! Yet, be aware that the standard rooms DO NOT have air conditioning and although for this time of the year is not a problem as temperature is good, it does affect tremendously the quietness of the room as you can hear all that happen outside including conversations, the music that is played until 10 pm and the noise of a generator that runs all night. So if you like quietness at night, make sure you rent a room with AC. Also the 3km road from the street to the resort is in awful conditions. We did not dare riding it at night for this reason. On a positive note, the hotel provides transportation to go to the nearby cenotes. Make sure you are careful when renting the room as we let ourselves be deceived by the pictures of the rooms which all had an AC

Great place to experience the wilderness and the forest as well as cenotes. Exceptional service in a remote area. Very nice staff. Be mindful that if you plan a trip at night the roads are too bad only good if you want an off-roading experience. We got delayed and the roads were scary.

Yellow Nest is INCREDIBLE!! Yes, the road is bumpy, has areas with water (depending on weather), and it's COMPLTELY worth the experience! We drove the road with our mid-sized SUV. The Yellow Nest will also provide transportation for a cost if you're not comfortabled driving deep into the jungle. Once you arrive let the pampering begin- the area is visually lush & gorgeous- welcome drink in hand the amazing concierge Sam will show you the property- huge main pool, yoga area, massage area, hammocks, 2nd pool, on-site restaurant, and meandering paths to the "huts". The accommodations are spacious, bed comfortable, bathroom space is huge- everything is well appointed, comfortable luxury! Customer care is of the highest quality, we felt pampered. Food & drinks were fresh, local, delicious with beautiful presentation. We visited the local Taki Ba-Ha cenote early in the morning (drove 5 mins) and loved our experience- bring goggle or snorkle, wetsuite not needed. Nature is gorgeous, relaxation is key & Yellow Nest is the perfect place to be! Book IT!!

My stay at the Yellow Nest far exceeded my expectations. The communication prior to arrival, the ambience and beauty of the location, and the impeccable service from staff made my stay at the Yellow Nest the best overnight night experience I have ever had. I can’t speak highly enough to the care and attention received from all staff but especially Sam and Miguel. Loved it!
