I bought one on site but my heart was set on a particular print and shirt combo in my size which wasn't available at the time. I was able to order the shirt to my preference and Annie arranged shipping back to the US for me after I left. This is where a great experience gets even better, she shipped my shirt, sent me the tracking number and monitored it all the way to me.

Gran Maya has high quality, but you 'll pay twice as much and the sales pitch is aggressive. Yaakun Maya had the best price on a real sisal hammock and the guy taught me a lot about it. He wasnt pushy like gran maya. We paid 3800 pesos for a double and he gave us a discount, From 4800. Mundo maya had the nicest textiles for the best price (they're all around the same block).
