Experience the Mahai Wellness Relax and Renew Day in Costa Maya offers a chance to escape the cruise ship hustle and enjoy a tranquil, health-focused retreat. Priced at $256 per person for approximately 6 hours, this newly opened, ocean-front property combines luxury, natural beauty, and holistic wellness in an exclusive setting. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a genuine, rejuvenating experience away from crowds, with personalized touches like a private jetty, massage cabanas facing the sea, and an array of restorative activities.
We especially love the private and peaceful atmosphere—no vendors or noisy crowds—and the combination of nourishing food and calming treatments that leave you feeling refreshed both in body and mind. The calming yoga sessions and custom herbal baths stand out as highlights that you’re unlikely to forget. That said, given the focus on wellness and exclusivity, it’s a more tailored experience that might not appeal if you’re seeking adventure or sightseeing. Still, it’s an excellent choice for anyone craving a day of genuine relaxation and health-focused pampering.
One thing to keep in mind is that this tour is quite intensive in its focus on wellness. If you’re expecting a lively, active day full of adventure, this might feel a bit slow-paced for you. However, for those who want to unwind deeply while enjoying stunning ocean views, it’s a perfect fit. The experience suits travelers who prioritize relaxation, good food, and a peaceful setting—especially those arriving via cruise who want to make the most of their limited time ashore.

How the Day Is Structured
The day begins at Costa Maya cruise port around 8:00 am, with private transportation whisking you to the retreat. The journey alone, often just a short drive, sets the tone for a peaceful escape. Upon arrival, you’re greeted with fresh coconut water and a vibrant selection of healthy fruits and juices—a nourishing start that awakens your senses and prepares you for the day ahead.
The first activity is a gentle yoga class, designed to loosen up your muscles and calm your mind, making it suitable for all levels. This is followed by a choice of treatments—either a custom herbal tea bath in a private ocean-facing cabana or a 60-minute beach massage from skilled therapists. Both options are tailored to address individual needs, providing targeted relief whether you’re looking to unwind physically or just melt away stress.
The Treatments: Massage and Herbal Baths
We loved the way the treatments are personalized—this isn’t a cookie-cutter spa day. The herbal tea bath, for example, offers a physical and mental reset, with the soothing warm water infused with herbs that might help ease muscle tension or promote relaxation. Meanwhile, the beach massage features professional therapists working in open-air cabanas overlooking the sea—a perfect setting for relaxing into the gentle sound of waves.
Additional Relaxation and Activities
Post-treatment, you’re encouraged to lounge by the private pool, swing in hammocks, or take advantage of the kayak, paddleboard, or snorkeling gear. These options add a playful element to your day, allowing you to enjoy the ocean in a tranquil, unhurried way. The setting is designed to foster deep relaxation, not a busy, activity-packed schedule.
Food and Refreshments
Throughout the experience, you’ll enjoy local-inspired vegetarian lunch made from fresh, nourishing ingredients. The emphasis on healthy, flavorful food is a highlight, as it complements the wellness theme perfectly. The morning fruit and juice offerings, along with bottled water, keep you hydrated and energized without any processed or heavy foods.
Who Is This Tour For?
This experience appeals most to those seeking serenity and health-focused pampering. It’s especially suited for cruise passengers with limited time who want a worthwhile, restorative experience ashore. The small group size (max 20 travelers) ensures a personal atmosphere, and the all-inclusive pricing simplifies planning.
Authenticity and Quality
Guests rave about the stunning setting and the quality of treatments, with Greg calling the massage “a top 5 of lifetime” and highlighting the well-designed property. The tranquil location, combined with delicious, healthy food and attentive staff, makes this a day you’ll remember fondly. The lack of crowds and vendors is a real draw for those who want to escape the typical cruise port hustle.
Practical Considerations
One thing to keep in mind is that this is a wellness-focused experience, so it’s quite gentle and relaxing. There’s no rushing—just a series of restorative activities—so it’s ideal if you’re after deep relaxation rather than physical adventure. It’s priced at a premium but offers excellent value if you value quality treatments, a peaceful setting, and healthy, tasty food.
Who Will Love This Experience?

If you enjoy calming environments, personalized treatments, and beautiful ocean views, this tour is perfect. It’s especially suitable for travelers who want to pause from sightseeing to focus on health and renewal. Perfect for solo travelers, couples, or small groups looking for a meaningful, restorative day. It’s also well-suited for those who appreciate good food, attentive service, and a truly exclusive atmosphere.
