What to expect

Dine at The Mayan, Lina Point’s stunning overwater restaurant inspired by ancient Maya cosmology. Arrive by golf cart across the bridge and ascend dramatic stairs depicting Xibalba, the Maya underworld. Continue rising through the roots of the sacred Ceiba tree to reach the second-floor dining room, built around a magnificent illuminated Ceiba tree hand-crafted from the jungle.

Savor signature Maya platters (additional cost) while surrounded by Maya-costumed staff and video wall sharing the story of cacao and Maya history. Dinner service begins at 5:30 PM (additional cost).

Price includes the Maya Cacao Ceremony that starts at 7:00 PM (dinner add on). Led by a Maya Shaman, this intimate ceremony opens with a traditional copal blessing, followed by a reflective intention setting where you use the mirror to connect with your inner self and discover your magic. The Shaman then guides the group in setting personal intentions before the cacao is shared. This serene experience runs alongside normal dinner service, complete with live drumming throughout the evening.
