We had a wonderful time at Balamku. It was exactly what we were looking for. The staff was helpful, friendly and very knowledgable of what to do in the area. Go see Balamku before it is overrun with all the tourists. If you go, you will have the experience of a lifetime. Clifton and Shawna July 08

Beautiful! We were very impressed with the beauty of the simplicity with which the eco-friendly systems were run. Incredibly friendly owners and staff. They've thought of everything. We would definitely recommend to friends and family.  George and Gwen, June 08

 Quiet, relaxing, serene, friendly. Well-thought out. Beautiful scenery and buildings. Away from the crowds. Anna and Ray, Jan.08

It was perfect for us. Small and unpretentious,very gracious and laidback with a sense of valuing and respecting the native culture, people and environment. A beautiful sense of balance and eco-friendly comfortable accommodations. Martha Mae and Hank Feb 08

"What I liked about Majahual is that it is still relatively undeveloped. In many ways it's still a small fishing village with a single sandy main street where you can relax with a beer and watch village life unfold. A small market is held weekly. Great material for photographers."

"The location is very beautiful and its beauty has been totally respected by the architecture and the taste in the choice of every particular"

"First class accommodations in an unspoiled, tropical paradise. More relaxation in two days than a week or more anywhere else. Friendly, personal care for guest comfort."

La Familia Centurion Fernandez , Julio 2004

Wir (Familie mit zwei Kindern) waren alle sehr begeistert. In der Anlage gibt es viele ruhige Plätzchen zum Sonnen, im Schatten und mit Blick auf die karibische See. Die komfortablen, palmgedeckten Rundhäuser sind bis ins Detail sehr liebevoll eingerichtet. Das Frühstück war das beste in vier Wochen Mexiko. Carol, die sympatische und freundliche kanadische Besitzerin, ist in allem sehr hilfsbereit.

"It was all we expected from your web page and more. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Being on the beach was great - the sound of the ocean was the best sleep aid ever. Your hospitality made us feel right at home and we especially appreciated your attention to the environment. Mahahual is a great town. And the diving on Chinchorro Bank was absolutely amazing"

"a jewel in an emerging tourist destination. This eco-friendly lodge is a leader of it's kind. Balamku incorporates all the best practices into one operation: beach maintenance, no generator noise, no smelly septic area, great staff, helpful information, great breakfasts, use of regional furniture and accessories."

A real treasure, paradise. Very, very beautiful. Conscious design and attention to detail. Balamku is a gift to the area and allows for what seems like a mutually enriching experiences across cultures. Very positive energy. Claire . March, 06
 

Very peaceful, well run and maintained. Very friendly and helpful. Yards are beautiful and the ocean view is wonderful. Just a glorious place to stay. We'd love to  come back! Jim and Gail/07

Pictures cannot capture the amazing beauty of Balamku. We found paradise! The palapa felt like home. Waking up to the ocean breeze, the sound of the water, palm trees and birds and the view of the sunrise put us at peace with the world. Carol and Alan's attitude on preserving the beauty here made us proud to be guests. Josh and Nicole April/07
