Paradise

We rented this property out with our friends for our wedding week. We had the most amazing time. There was a lot to do on the property although it was not easy getting trips off the property which had to be planned in advance and were not always on time. I would suggest each party renting a car or van that would fit all their guests and that would make it much easier. The food was absolutely amazing and the staff was extremely helpful and courteous! We actually arranged our schedules not to miss one of the delicious meals! This was the trip of a lifetime and we certainly hope to return. Our love to all the guys and the animals!

Our group consist of 7 adults(long time friends from all over the states) and 10 children(ages 2-13). I would have to say that this vacation was the best vacation we have ever been on. Karl and his staff take care of your every need. The food is amazing and fresh. Taninah had it all for everyone. Our kids kept so busy with everything that the adults were able to relax, which does not happen on many family vacations:-) We will be back very soon.
Thanks Kathy and Marino.

An Adventure to Remember

5 of 5
Submitted: June 4, 2012 Stayed: May 2012
Taninah is a unique experience!

It is nestled far enough into the jungle to feel truly "out there" and yet features a bevy of modern amenities which makes it feel much like a modern resort, without any of the polytstone decor so common to the properties along the Riviera Maya.

The lodgings are varied and comfortable and the grounds are beautiful. Though the grounds are impressive, the amenities seemingly endless, and the private grotto awe inspiring, it is the staff that puts the experience over the top. The tireless, all Mayan staff work hard to ensure each meal is prepared when you want it, how you want it, and to a consistently delicious standard. The friendly staff walks the fine line of being readily available and yet never in the way - it's an impressive balancing act indeed.

It is important for people to remember that Taninah is an authentic experience and as it's in the jungle, you are going to hear the sounds of (sometimes loud) frogs at night, and you may (depending on the weather) deal with mosquitoes. There are bugs, and though we didn't see any, there may be snakes. Taninah is safe for sure, but if you're looking for the Disney version of Mexico, this is not it, and thank goodness for that. If you're looking for a one of a kind vacation experience, then this is the place for you. The owners and creators of Taninah have given life to something truly special in the jungle of Mexico's Riviera Maya!

We look forward to coming back at some point in the future.

Multigenerational family returns for fourth year

5 of 5
Submitted: March 20, 2011 Stayed: February 2011
We just returned from our fourth multi-generational family vacation at Taninah so tanned and relaxed we can hardly write the review! Imagine waking up in a private jungle villa to the sound of wild parrots, taking a morning swim in the fresh water cenote (cave with stalagmites and stalactites), and then walking to the outdoor kitchen for fresh squeezed orange juice, Mexican coffee and a full breakfast. Between the delicious Mexican/Mayan meals, you can swim in the pool, soak in the hot tub, walk on the jungle path or play miniature golf. There is also a game room, library, gym, basketball court, zip line, and in ground trampoline, and it is all for just your family.

My teenagers loved the water slide, ping pong and pool tables, the trips to adventure parks and beaches, and the in-home theatre. My sister’s younger kids couldn’t get enough of the jungle gyms, board games, air hockey, and playing soccer with the staff. Meanwhile, my parents loved lying in the hammocks, reading by the pool and taking long walks. For me, the magic was having all the meals, chores and planning taken care of, so that every day stretched in front of me with the question “What do I feel like doing today?”.

If you are considering a vacation at Taninah – just do it. It is a one of a kind opportunity for privacy, adventure and fun. At night, after the staff has turned down your beds and the kids are asleep, walk outside, look up into millions of stars and hear the night sounds of the jungle. I guarantee you will know you made the right choice.

What a marvelous jungle paradise – much fun was had by all – young and old! The zip line was a favorite! A fantastic place for our big and growing family to meet up and share time together. Impeccable service, terrific food, and lots to explore under a canopy of trees! We’ll never forget our time here!The Smiths

Marino & Kathy,This week has been a pleasure. It matched our expectations and then some. There was something for everyone. Personally, I enjoyed the solitude, the “outdoors” and the great food. Your staff is extremely kind and helpful. We appreciated their help with the two birthdays we celebrated while we were here. We’ll have many good memories to share for years to come.Renee & Cliff Lutwinko

Marino, Kathy, & Leslie,There is a song that goes like this, “Heaven…I’m in Heaven”. We feel like we are in the original Garden of Eden. “Heavenly”!When our daughter Nadine found Taninah on the Internet, we said “there is the perfect spot for Kevin’s big 70”. What a way to start of another decade. We hate leaving this paradise you have created, maybe we could do the “squatter’s right” thing.Our family enjoyed every minute. There is something for everyone Victor, Demetrio, Ezequiel, Alfonso, and of course, Luna added so much to our stay and a happy time. “Thanks for the memory”.Murphy & Kern Families

To Marino, Kathy, and your wonderful staff,Thank you so much for bringing your dream of a jungle paradise to life for so many from around the world! Between the 23 of us we couldn’t come up with anything you left out. You thought of everything. There was never a dull moment for any of us, from a toddler to Grandpa and FunBun. We are so lucky to have stumbled into your humble hands (including Leslie’s)! Thanks to your hard work, commitment, and dedication, and that of your staff’s, unbelievable memories will be kept close to our hearts of the jungle paradise known as Taninah.With warm wishes to you and your familias,The Collingwood Family (Dan, Deb, Cody, and Hannah)
