"The service was impeccable, very courteous, professional, the rooms, grounds etc. were very clean, the food at their restaurant was incredibly good!
My wife and I were treated like royalty!"
"If you plan to travel to Chichén Itza, you want to stay with Luis and Carla. They are the best hosts! Luis will direct you to all the spots to eat and visit. He made us this incredible breakfast. There are literally not enough words to describe the most humble, safe, and delicious place to stay. It felt like home. We are so grateful to have met him. Carla made us the BEST cinnamon rolls we've ever eaten too. Their dogs accompanied us to a small local restaurant, Genesis, and it was like having four legged body guards the whole time. Super safe town. Incredible hosts. Please, you want to book a night or a month with Luis and Carla. They are truly incredible."
"Immaculately clean, very new TV, AC and bathroom fixture. Got a great night's sleep each time I was there. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Piste's small tourist eateries, taco stands and food stalls geared for locals very short walk away. This is the ideal stay for someone visiting Chichen who wants to experience small-town Mexico as part of the trip. I come often to visit friends, and this will be my new local go-to."
"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."
