Read more on how Mayan resorts timeshares creates "perfect" atmospheres to lure prospects into unnecessary timeshare purchases and become mayan palace timeshare scam victims.
Mayan Palace is a resort brand owned and operated by Grupo Vidanta, a Mexican development company in the 1970s. Grupo Vidanta has evolved into one of Mexico's leading developers of tourism infrastructure—including Mexico's first privately built and owned international airport at Puerto Peñasco. These resorts boast spacious accommodations, world-class restaurants, golf and tennis facilities, a high level of services and amenities, children's programs, and themed events.
Mayan Palace sales tactics are aggressive, and representatives will tell you anything you want to hear to get you to sign a contract—and keep you locked into it. It is all too common for sales representatives to offer existing owners an "upgrade" to a more expensive membership, promising benefits that never materialize.
Among the most egregious Mayan Palace timeshare scams committed by sales representatives:
- Concealing the cooling-off period. Representatives frequently fail to inform buyers that Mexican law grants a 5-day cooling-off period during which they can cancel the contract without penalty. Instead, they repeatedly tell buyers that once the contract is signed, there is no cancellation period whatsoever.
- The "trade-in" deception. Sales representatives offer a trade-in, leading buyers to believe that Mayan Palace will take their existing timeshare, sell it on their behalf, and deduct the proceeds from the cost of their new Mayan Palace membership. In reality, the buyer ends up owning two timeshares, with payments due on both—turning it into a double Mayan Palace timeshare scam.
- False promises about travel benefits. The sales pitch will explain all the wonderful places you can visit with your timeshare, and how exclusive and prestigious it is to own a Mayan Palace membership. What they fail to explain is how the timeshare actually works, what the real possibilities are of traveling to those destinations, and what type of unit you are actually purchasing—which is often not the same unit shown during the tour. They also promise discounts on airfares and certificates for cruises, both of which are false.
Dealing with Mayan Palace after purchasing a timeshare can be frustrating. Customer service rarely provides the answers you expect when it comes to using your timeshare or booking your next vacation. You are lucky if you are able to book anything at all.
Before You Purchase: A Word of Caution
Before you purchase any timeshare, you need to think carefully about how you will use it in your life, and whether you truly have the money to spend. Take your time and do not make any commitments on your first visit. Do an internet search on the company—if the company is legitimate, they will let you come back another day if you wish to make the purchase.
Thousands of people every year fall victim to fraudulent timeshare sales practices while vacationing in Mexico. The sales teams have carefully crafted and proven techniques to close sales, and they are very skilled at ensuring that potential clients become timeshare owners.
Take Action
Do not feel ashamed of your purchase. Instead, take action to prevent others from financial ruin and to resolve your own situation.

Timeshare Resale Companies Over Promise and under Deliver
Los complejos de Mayan Palace son muy atractivos para los turistas, pero algunas personas comentan que la experiencia como propietarios no siempre coincide con las expectativas creadas durante la venta. Las cuotas y los compromisos a largo plazo pueden cambiar por completo la percepción inicial. Por eso es tan importante revisar cada detalle antes de firmar.
Mayan Palace is often mentioned in discussions where buyers later feel the sales experience didn’t match the reality of ownership. What starts as an exciting vacation pitch can turn into long-term financial obligations that are hard to reverse. Many people only realize this after signing.
I own Mayan Resorts and I have never used them. It was purchased in 2012(?) and my husband passed away soon after. I just want to make sure my daughter won't have to deal with this property once I'm gone.
Can you help me?

Me marcaron hoy, y me enviaron el mismo sistema de fundaciones y demas como para estafa. Lo comento para que tengan conocimiento
Recibí una oferta también de Americans travel para rentar mi membresía con Mayan Palace por 10 semanas, alguien pudiera decirme de los que ya comentaron si tuvieron al final algún buen resultado
Mayan Palace are Rude people with no ethic ! dont let you enfold you ! timeshare presentations pitch are a scam , even if the salesperson try to buy you with free tickets, free breakfast or free rides to somewhere, DONT ACCEPT IT, its only part of the hook , so beware and stay safe away from Mayan !
Lamentablemente hice un contrato de rentar de mi tiempo compartido de Vidanta a una persona en Houston a través de un bróker (Agencia Americans Travel) con una empresa de cierre (Positive Return de Houston). Quedé envuelta en sus rollos e hice la transferencia de pago de las semanas al número que me dieron de una empresa mexicana (Proyección Turisticas de la Costa y Consultoría Vacacional Delfín S.A. que según eran sus representantes en México) después me hablaron para pedirme pago de un tax, me enviaron documentos diciendo que el dinero del cliente está en JP Morgan Chase porque el arrendatario ya los había dispuesto ahí pero para darme el pago acordado me pidieron para otros pagos de ISR, Insurance, etc, por lo que solicité la cancelación del contrato y ahora me dicen que tengo que depositarles para pagar los honorarios del bróker y del fideicomiso además de darle algo a la contraparte en compensación si no no me pueden dar mi parte. Si alguien ha pasado por lo mismo por favor indíqueme qué hizo o como puedo demandar a las empresas en México mencionadas que tienen cuenta en Banorte. Gracias..
Me hablaron de una agencia Americans Travel a través de otra compañia positive return ofreciéndome rentar mayan por 10 semanas. Es esto legal? saben algo de ello? Vi un comentario de Raul Casillas, me gustaría platicar con el
Mayan se hace rico abusando de la ignorancia de las personas, proponiendo contratos que son dificil de negar , pero la verdad es que todo lo que ofrecen es solo menrira , a la hora de la hora ya que pagaste y firmaste no les importa lo demas, y niegan todo lo que te dijeron antes, asi llevo ya casi 3 años y he contactado con otras personas que les paso lo mismo , hasta cuando mayan dejara de ser tan engañosos ?
A mi una empresa llamada Positive Return me ofrece rentar 10 semanas a 2200 Dolares, me envían un contrato y me dicen que lo firme y se los escanie solo como para aceptar la propuesta, poco después me llama una abogada diciendo que necesito pagar las 10 semanas de mantenimiento por adelantado, sino entablaran una demanda para recuperar 3500 dolores de su "cliente"...no creo que sea legal que con una simple copia me puedan demandar..o si???
