One of the most well-liked vacation spots is Mexico, which has stunning beaches, amazing Mayan monuments, and delectable cuisine. At first, tourism expanded so quickly that some locations started to feel a touch too commercialized.
So it’s encouraging to find a portion of the coast that hasn’t been altered in any way. Here we have Mayakoba, a group of four luxurious eco-friendly Riviera Maya resorts.
In order to ensure that the resort complies with the highest standards of conservation, biologists and geologists were engaged during the planning process. We recently went to this cutting-edge luxury resort to experience it for ourselves.
Here are the top attractions and dining options in this idyllic locale. An amazing position, Mayakoba is less than 40 minutes from Cancun International Airport and close to Tulum.
Mayakoba – Luxury Riviera Maya Resorts
The four opulent hotels in Mayakoba have been skillfully incorporated into the surroundings while improving the area’s allure. The Mayakoba Connection Ferry Service, which connects the hotels by electric boat, has conserved the mangroves so that visitors can enjoy them.
Regular free guided boat tours of the vast grounds are also offered. A tranquil spot to walk, run, or ride a bike connects the hotels, golf course, and El Pueblito village plaza over a four and a half kilometer nature trail.
Hopefully you’ll see a lot of birds in addition to coatis, which are racoon relatives. Visit our dedicated article for additional images of the diverse fauna found in the Riviera Maya.
The only challenge with four 5 star hotels is choose which one to stay in! There is the Rosewood Mayakoba, Banyan Tree, Fairmont, and Andaz Mayakoba Resort Riviera Maya. Each one includes a posh spa, fine dining options, and unique architecture.
We adore the eccentric murals painted by Senkoe, a well-known artist from Playa del Carmen. Don’t you think they wonderfully capture the vitality of Mexican culture?
Beautiful Riviera Maya Beaches
On our visit, the sea was a perfect temperature and the fine white sand beach was hardly crowded.
Each hotel is accessible from the beach, and at the extreme end, close to the Hotel Banyan Tree Mayakoba, there is a charming boardwalk.
A bicycle is another option for transportation, as each hotel maintains a fleet of bikes that may be borrowed by visitors. We loved the stylish cruiser bikes at Andaz; just remember to brake by pedaling backwards.

Mexican delicacies prepared in the tapas manner can be found at Punta Bonita at Rosewood or at Sands at Banyan Tree. Both the eyes and the taste sensations are treated to a feast when dining at Mayakoba.
Unique Mexican Vacation Experiences
There is something for everyone at Mayakoba, whether you choose a soothing spa treatment at one of the four hotels or a more active pastime. With six treatment rooms and two hydrotherapy areas, the Naum Wellness & Spa at the Andaz is one of our favorite spas.
Our couples massage was in a separate pavilion with a quiet outdoor area to relax and take in the view.
