Stay with us in this enchanting colonial city surrounded by the traditional Maya communities of the Chiapas Highlands.
Set in a picturesque pine forested highland valley at an elevation of 2100m, San Cristóbal de las Casas has a temperate climate with warm sun-filled days and fresh nights.
Breathe in the clear highland air while horseback riding in the hills, sample delicious organic coffee on a tour at cooperatively run farms, and soak up the ambiance of San Cristóbal's back in time central plaza.
There is a reason why Mexico's Secretariat of Tourism (SECTUR) has awarded the city the title of Pueblo Mágico (Magical Village). Visitors inevitably leave with 'magical' experiences, charmed by the area's historical significance, cultural wealth and natural beauty.
In case you were wondering about our name, Mayambe is an adaptation of the Bantu people's Swahili word 'Mayimbe'. Made popular in Hispanic culture within the last century, it signifies charismatic leaders of the tribe, positive and genuine, whom everyone enjoys being around.
Go ahead and check out our accomodations page to learn about our rates and our guest services page to find out why Casa Mayambe is your ideal choice when visiting San Cristóbal de las Casas.
Casa Mayambe is located just three blocks from the Central Plaza or Zócalo.
Let us show you the magic!
