Our nightly prices vary by season, but range from $1150 USD in the low season (August-September) to $1450 USD in the high season (December – March). These are ballpark prices before taxes, fees, or promotions. Get our precise rates by inputting your dates at the top of this page.
We offer last-minute discounts, as well as a 15% discount on reservations that last a week or longer. Booking on via our website is about 10% cheaper than renting our property through other sites like Airbnb.
No. Whether you have one guest or 24 guests, our nightly fee is the same. You can send us your final guest list the week prior to your arrival.
Our pricing is transparent; we don’t have hidden fees. Costs not included in your rental fee that you should budget for are staff gratuities (see next FAQ), the $15-35 USD Superhog insurance fee, chef services if you choose them, and spending money. We do charge a “day pass” fee for outside visitors (if there are more than 24 guests on our property) to cover cleaning expenses. Please see our Guest Agreement here. for all of our fine print.
Leaving a tip for our team is always at your discretion and is contingent upon the service you received. As a reference point, most of our guests tip our house staff about $150-200 pesos per guest per night. At the end of your stay, we give you two envelopes for our house staff: one for Alex (whose role is so hands-on) and one for our wonderful 4-person cleaning and maintenance team. The total house staff gratuity can be split between these two envelopes however you see fit. Please note that gratuity for the chef’s team is separate consideration and is generally about 15% of the food services total. We will give you an envelope for her team at the end of your stay too. Gratuity left in cash, preferably in MXN, is ideal.
Damages rarely happen, but when they do, everyone is grateful to be insured. For direct bookings, we use a guest verification system and damage protection plan provided by the website called Superhog. After booking, we will email you a link with easy steps to follow, including the option to choose between a damage waiver ($35 USD) or a refundable damage deposit ($15 USD), both of which protect you for accidental damages up to $500 USD in value. You are responsible for paying for this damage protection prior to arrival. Villa Tayrona covers the cost of insurance for damages that surpass $500 USD in value.
Yes. Villa Tayrona isn’t liable for trip cancellation due to natural disasters, pandemics, acts of God, or any other event beyond our control. We recommend guests purchase private trip cancellation insurance for coverage in case of such circumstances.

Any installments toward your rental fee in MXN cash receive a 10% discount. Since most of our guests are not located in Mexico at the time of booking and therefore can’t pay the 50% rental deposit in cash, the discount typically applies to the 50% remaining balance. Exchange rate equivalencies are calculated using the website xe.com on the date of payment.
If you cancel your reservation, we will open up the dates on the calendar and try to rebook your dates. If any of your nights gets rebooked, we will refund you the deposit you had paid for those nights. Since most of our reservations are made about 9 months in advance, we can’t guarantee that your nights will be rebooked if you cancel with short notice.
We always try to pamper our retreat leaders! Send Elly (elly@villatayrona.mx) a note for more details.
Welcoming groups in our whole villa is the heart of our business. When we have last-minute availability between groups, though, we open up our individual rooms for rent via Airbnb (see our listings here). If you have rented the whole villa and want to come early or stay late, contact us directly to inquire about availability
