Our style
Mawimbi has been created paying particular attention to details and showing due respect to Nature’s Harmony of colors and shapes.
It has been carefully built and decorated using products and techniques of the ancient Mayan culture.
The curtains, bedspread and pillows are made from antique Guatemalan ponchos, the bathrooms are decorated with colorful Mexican tiles.
Likewise, tables and chairs have been carved and crafted from local trunks, as well as the whole structure of the hotel, the bar and beach.
All it nestled in a lush tropical garden.

Ornella & Carmelo
They have traveled all around the world. After extensive travels to Seychelles, Maldives, Thailand, Caribbean, Greek Islands, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenia and Botswana, they finally settled in what they consider the ultimate paradise and created a small tropical style hideout.
When they started to build Mawimbi in 1998 they were thrilled to give shape to the beautiful emotions experienced during their travels, expressing them through the crafts and handwork of the magnificent local wood, decorating the hotel with big shells as light spots, and mixing carefully the gifts offered by the Sea and the Land.
After many years, Carmelo and Ornella still live in this remote spot, enjoying the simplicity of the life on the island and its wonderful nature. Sharing this everyday experience with the numerous travelers has become their lifestyle.
