Yes. The Mayan calendar is based on a combination of 260-day and 365-day cycles. The 260-day cycle appears to be based on an astronomical observation that is only valid for the latitude at which they lived and doesn't have much practical use. The 365-day cycle is obviously based on the solar year, but it does not account for the fact that the solar year is actually 365.2425 days, so it accumulates error, relative to astronomical observations and also relative to the seasons, at a significant rate.
Incidentally, the Mayan "Long Count" calendar repeats approximately every 394.3 years. It does not have an end.

Did the Mayans ever create an accurate calendar?
In their mind, yes. They wrote that 2012 would be the year the world is supposed to end. However, we have technically already surpassed 2012 because the Mayans didn't include B.C. & A.D. dates, which is a 4-year expansion. So if the world didn't conform it's times and dates to that of the birth and death of Jesus, we would be in 2015 right now.
