Experience the island feeling. Enjoy the stunning colors of the Caribbean waters. It’s time for relaxation and romance. Welcome to Hotel Cabanas Maria del Mar, a 73-room oasis located on Isla Mujeres -- a small tropical island eight miles off the coast of Cancún, Mexico, and one hour door-to-door from Cancun International Airport.
This hotel is located in the center of North beach, the island’s most famous beach. Crystal clear turquoise waters and powdery white sand are just steps from your room. Approximately five miles long and less than a half-mile wide, the island is ideal for exploring via golf cart, moped or bicycle. The island’s center, a vibrant fishing village with many shops and restaurants, is within a short walk from the hotel.
The perfect island getaway, Isla Mujeres is rich in mayan history. Translated, the island’s name literally means “Island of Woman,” which was given after the Spaniards arrived to Isla Mujeres and found a large number of statues of woman dedicated to Ixchel, the goddess of love and fertility. Since then, the island has been rediscovered by visitors from all over the world looking for a romantic getaway and contact with nature. And due to its close proximity to Cancun and Rivera Maya, Isla Mujeres is also a wonderful starting point for discovering the Yucatan and its many archaeological sites.
