Aldea Maya

A newly introduced dining concept at Maroma Resort, Aldea Maya (meaning “Mayan Village”) offers guests an authentic Yucatecan experience set jungleside in a recreated Mayan “village” within the grounds of the resort. Diners eat in a casual, open-air setting as chefs prepare food over an open flame using clay pots and pans, and servers dressed in the traditional white embroidered “huipiles” dish up a memorable meal showcasing the region’s signature flavors. Expect to sample dishes like black bean stew with sour cactus fruit salsa and lion fish cooked in a banana leaf with mint, tomatillo and local citrus salsa. A portion of the Aldea Maya proceeds will be used to create and promote ecological and educational programs that will directly benefit the local Mayan communities. Non-guests are also welcome to make reservations for the experience.
