Cancun Yachts Club - Reviews

"I can not commend or recommend Cancun Yachts Club with any higher praise. We have done a trip like this for the last 10 years with multiple companies and this trip by far was the best. The vessel itself was outstanding as was the crew and the food. Our whole group of 10 felt that this was the best day we have ever had on the water. They are already planning for next year. Nestor and the company are outstanding and we can not thank you enough." Can not to start planning our next one. Doug"
We had a spectacular day on a fantastic boat with a very happy and very professional crew, it was an unforgettable day that we spent with all my family and we hope to return soon to repeat it 100% recommended.
Outstanding time on the boat today! Crew was fantastic and I museration greatly exceeded my expectations. Very well done from booking with you until we returned from the trip. Please be sure to pass that along to all involved.
It was a great experience for every one, we all enjoyed our selfs and the crew was great!
Spent the afternoon with the best captain and mates ! Service was amazing .. they took us to isla mujerea and we swam and jumped off boat!! Great fabulous day so worth it
I contacted Nestor and he did a fantastic job planning our yacht he worked everything out to fit our needs. The crew was unbelievable and the chef made amazing food! My family had a amazing time and we made memories we’ll keep forever! I highly recommend! Thank you to everyone who made this day unforgettable.
We rented a 460 Sea Ray Sundancer for 8 hours on our anniversary Jan 6, 2019. I was leery of booking something online in Mexico but the communication, rates and deposit due prior to arrival made me feel at ease. I had multiple questions about weather and other misc things leading up to the day and all emails were replied to in a timely manner. Transportation picked us up from our resort in Playa Mujeres on time. They upgraded us to a larger boat upon arrival. The boat was clean and the crew was very attentive to our needs. They provided guacamole and ceviche for our on board snack - I would recommend asking to upgrade the food to an actual meal if you’re planning on doing the 8 hour day. The weather held up to be a perfect day and they chartered us around to various places per our specifications of what we were looking for. They had food for the fish when snorkeling and quickly stopped by the Isla Mujeres Dock to get more mixers for us so we didn’t have to pay the $30 docking fee to tie up there. It was the most memorable anniversary yet and the crew, yacht, and communication leading up to the day was five stars all around. They even took pictures of us through the trip. I price searched all over the area and their pricing was hands down the best in town! We will be booking through them again our next visit the Cancun without a doubt.
My girls and I rented through this company for my bachelorette party. It was the best decision ever!!! Thank you so much!!! Highly recommend this company!!!
What a great experience!! Nestor was great to work with for the booking and the boat was everything we wanted. Our crew was amazing and the food on board was so amazing! Our captain was Joel and our first mate Miguel and they made us feel at home. They even arranged for our transport, everything was perfect. We cruised around, anchored, swam and saw the sights, an amazingly relaxing day! I will use you guys again!!
Was the high lite of our vacation, yacht we chartered was exactly as described on website. The crew was very good, and attended to all our needs. We booked yacht for 8 hours, did some snorkeling, swimming, dined at a cafe in Isla Mujeres on shore and cruised the island. Very well priced too, would highly recommend Cancun yachts club for your next yacht charter. We will definitely re book next time we're in Cancun.
We rented the Searay 46 for a Hen party and we surely had such an amazing time and experience. Nestor was quick and efficient and special thanks goes out to the crew (Lupe, Lucas and Leo) for being so helpful and attentive.
Our boat exceeded our expectations!! Thank you for such an unforgettable day! The food was amazing especially the guacamole! We will definitely contact you again next time we come back!! Thank you for making it a great day with a wonderful boat!!!!!!!
I just wanted to thank you and your crew for the day on the water. We all had the best day our entire holiday the day we went out with your crew.
I just wanted to thanks you for everything regard the Yacht and the Crew!!!! They were excellent! We had a wonderful time and the Chef- WOW - The Lobster and steak were amazing! Thanks again! Sinerely;
My wife and rented the Sea Ray 44 for a full day on the water. Captain Tito and Angel were our crew and they were absolutely amazing. They made our experience top notch from start to finish! They were very accommodating to all our requests and would 100% recommend them to friends or family.
I would like to thank you for the fantastic service we received. The boat and crew were more than we expected. The crew worked hard and no one aboard wanted for anything they provided a high quality of service. Thank you so much.

Thanks For Helping Me Make My Husband's Birthday Even More Special.. The Dinner SunSet Cruise Was Worth Every Dollar!! Just Beautiful!!!
We booked a Sunseeker 56 yacht through cancun yachts club for my wife's 30th Birthday and we were blown away with how good the yacht was and the quality of service from Miguel and Alain on board. Customer Service does not come much better than what we experienced on the yacht that day. The whole experience, from booking with Nestor through to the transport back to the hotel was hassle free and done with a smile. I would highly recommend using cancun yachts club to anyone who is planning a private yacht excursion with friends or family. A day and birthday that my wife and family will never forget. Thank you Nestor, Miguel and Alain.
Had the best day ever on our yacht with 12 girls for my bachelorette .. The crew were amazing and your company are so fantastic . Picked us up from our hotel and dropped back again.
Loved our day on the boat and the crew was amazing! We had a great day snorkeling and riding around Isla Mujeres. Thanks for everything!
We had an amazing time! The guys on the yacht were amazing and the whole time was one I will never forget. I would recommend to anyone and hopefully do it again myself when I return. Nestor was a great too and was all on hand to help with any enquirers.
This was my 3rd time using Cancun Yachts Club. Was up graded to a bigger boat because issues with mechanics on the one I had originally chartered. Great prices and accommodating to all our needs. The Captain Johnathan and Mate Dave were Fantastic. From serving food - Drinks to helping us with the snorkeling and places to go. We all had a Fantastic Time. Will definitely use you again.

I recently was on my Honeymoon in Playa Mujeres and chartered the 72 Sunseeker as a surprise for my wife any myself. I have never chartered a boat like this in the past and had many questions. First Nestor was very fast to respond and answered all my questions quickly... Learn more about this comment on tripadvisor
I booked the 55ft Atlantis for a bachelor party. The yacht was great, everything we hoped for and more. The crew was very friendly and accommodating, making sure all our need were fulfilled and everyone was happy. I dealt with Nestor through email booking this trip. Nestor did an amazing job of lining everything up for us. No detail was missed. Nestor fulfilled every request we had. I can't thank everyone involved enough. This bachelor party was everything we expected and more. Thanks to everyone involved! I would highly recommend booking with Cancun Yachts Club.
This is the second year we enjoyed a cruise with Cancun Yachts Club. The service from the captain and his staff was excellent and we had a great day of cruising, swimming and relaxing. We'll definitely be doing this again next year!
I booked the sunset dinner cruise to do a proposal to my now fiancé. The crew was awesome photographer was great even captured a video the views were incredible best money spent and the meal was amazing I inform anyone that wants to do something like this to rent through these guys it was a surreal experience.

Just wanted to say thank you, once again for the hospitality and superb service of your yacht charter service. After reviewing and screening other private yacht charters, I had a gut feeling to go with Nestor of cancunyachtsclub. Not only, are this guys, professional and so sweet but the best prices in town. Ask for sweet Cesar and the very nice Captain Ray! I love you guys and I will be back soon!!!!
I would like to thank Nestor and the rest of the staff on providing an amazing experience. Our group of 12 came down to Cancun for a bachelor party and our highlight was definitely the day we spent on the yacht. The crew was friendly and the utmost accommodating. No details were missed on our requests. Highly recommend and will be back again! Thank you!
We just wanted to share with you what a wonderful day we had yesterday on your yacht. Everyone had a terrific time. Your crew were very friendly and helpful and made us feel very much at “home”. Even at the end of the day no one was rushing us to get back on board the boat after our swim and head back to port. I am not sure if we will ever rent a yacht again but we will most certainly recommend you. Thank you for helping making our 10th anniversary very special. Ian & Monica
I had been working with Nestor for over 7 months to plan my proposal on one of there amazing Yachts. I am sure I asked over 100 questions and with every email Nestor sent back not only was it sent in a timely manor but he answered every question and made me feel everything would run perfectly. The day of my proposal the yacht looked fantastic, the crew was AMAZING, ACCOMIDATING, and all around FLAWLESS! The food that the Capitan and crew handmade was the best meal I had in Cancun! My now fiancé and all my friends and family LOVED this experience. Without Nestor I don't know what I would of done. Please do not hesitate or think twice Cancun Yachts Club is the best! Nestor is FANTASTIC and will not leave you disappointed. I cannot express in text how much I loved this experience! So check out our video I made of the day on the yacht!
The boat and crew were excellent. Our party had a great time. Everything Nestor told us was true. We recommend this company to charter a boat while visiting Cancun. Thank you Nestor, we look forward booking another yacht from you again when we return.
I rented the 460 Sea Ray Sundancer for an 8 hour day. We had a 2 crew on board which included the Captain. They were both extremely laid back and attentive. They kept the drinks flowing, took care of some people that got seasick and got them back to feeling well again... Learn more about this comment on tripadvisor

After contacting the yacht club a few years ago, Nestor arranged our first trip. My family and I were very pleased. I then contacted Nestor again recently to arrange this trip. I asked him for some ideas for an itinerary. He presented me with an outstanding itinerary and took care of ALL the arrangements for me. My family and I had the perfect day swimming with the dolphins, snorkeling, etc. The captain and mate were just as outstanding as well. We have already discussed with Nestor and the captain a possible itinerary for our next visit to Cancun. We wouldn't think of using any other company for our excursion. Nestor does an amazing job for me! We look forward to continuing to work with Nestor!Sincerely,Steve Dekelbaum.

First of all i want to say thank you to Nestor who help me with everything i needed.The boat was amazing , the service , the food , everything was just perfect.Thank you Cancun yachts club for helping me propose in the most amazing way.
We had a great time! We were taken to an island where we did get screwed over on the conversion a little bit when they gave us the total and then ran it in Pesos only giving us about a 9.5 conversion rate when it was supposed to be closer to 13. Also the deck crew took it upon themselves to order food on our tab without asking which I guess was fine since we just used it as there tip. Other than that the boat was great and Nester was great to work with!
Great day out,yacht was excellent and crew just amazing and professional, we were celebrating a friends 97th birthday and this company made it such a manageable and enjoyable trip... Learn more about this comment on tripadvisor

What’s the best month for a cancun boat tour.

The weather in the Yucatan Peninsula is great year-round, but the best time to take a Cancun boat tour is during the dry season (November to April).

This is before the start of the Atlantic Hurricane season, meaning heavy rainfall and storms are rare.

Aside from some short bursts of rain due to its subtropical climate, the weather in Cancun during these months is mostly sunny.

Regardless of the length of the tour, it’s usually smart to bring sunscreen and some bottled water, especially if neither is complimentary.

Five-Star Reviews on TripAdvisor!

Logo Sailboat Cancun

Beautiful weather, boat and people. I would highly recommend this activity for a very relaxing day. It was mentioned that we were sailing over the second largest coral reef in the world. I wish we could have snorkeled there instead of over a sandy bottom. My only disappointment.

Sailing with Captain Eric and Melia was absolutely wonderful! Captain Eric and Melia made sure that everyone was comfortable and safe throughout our journey. Eugenia had been amazing prior to our day of sailing both in helping me with understanding exactly what to expect for the day. We could not have been more pleased or had a better time! I would highly recommend Sailboat Cancun for a unique and memorable experience.

We had a wonderful time! We sailed around Isla Mujeres. The weather was great, but the first tropical storm of the season had come thru earlier, so the waves were a little rough to swim in. Our captain and his first mate(filling in while his wife had a baby) were great! We had a great time and would do it again!

Sailing with Eugenia and Eric was such a wonderful experience. We were a small group of three friends and felt so safe and secure in their knowledgeable hands. They were personable and really treated us like special guests in their home! I would recommend this to everyone looking for a special, high end experience. Hope to sail with Eugenia and Eric again

A five-star experience, I must say! Captain Bertrand was an incredible host, a true bon vivant, and an absolute master in the kitchen. We snorkeled, paddleboarded, and swam in stunning locations, far from the  crowds. We were even fortunate enough to encounter some tortues sauvages along the way.

Isla Mujeres: A Tropical Paradise

Many people who visit Isla Mujeres - a small, four-mile island a short boat ride from Cancun - are drawn to it because it is the total antithesis to the party-fueled energy of Cancun. Here, the menu of things to do is relatively small, but that is all part of the island’s appeal.

Under a tropical sun, you can tick away the hours snorkeling with bright tropical fish darting around colorful coral reefs, glide over the waves on a kayak or paddleboard, bask in the sunshine on a pristine beach, swim in brilliantly clear blue waters, nibble on seafood caught early that very morning or just kick back with a drink!

There’s More to See and Do

Perhaps you’d like to visit Punta Sur, where there is an ancient Mayan temple built to honor their Moon Goddess on lands marked by steep cliffs and amazing views of the bay. There is also Garrafon Reef Park, where visitors can swim, snorkel, kayak and even zip line.

Nature lovers might want to stop by the local Tortugranja, or turtle farm, where between August and October lucky visitors may catch a glimpse of baby sea turtles hatching and making their way to the beautiful Caribbean waters that will become their home. The choice is yours!

A Truly Romantic Sailing Tour

Our private Isla Mujeres luxury sailing excursion is designed for romance from beginning to end. Isla Mujeres is a wonderful place to take long walks, the beachfront dining options are magical and the island itself is still isolated enough that your time there will feel private. But when you’re ready to return to your own little haven, you can come back to the yacht where our attentive crew will offer you a drink and a chance to bask in luxury for just a bit longer.

We Can Help You Plan the Perfect Day Away

Let us help you build a custom itinerary for your private group that ensures you see and experience everything you’ve been dreaming of. From animal encounters to scuba diving lessons, our private tours in Cancun offer something for everyone!

Travel the Yucatán Peninsula for less: Deals in Cancún, Playa del Carmen and Tulum

"GMA" Bucket List on a Budget is headed to Mexico!

With miles of crystal clear waters, white sand beaches and a culture that's steeped in history, it comes as no surprise that the Yucatán Peninsula is home to top travel destinations like Cancún, Playa del Carmen and Tulum.

The area that separates the Gulf of Mexico from the Caribbean Sea consistently captivates globe trotters -- ranking in Google's top 10 summer destinations year after year -- and now "Good Morning America" has taken the trip for less, finding all the best deals and ways to save for Bucket List on a Budget.

PHOTO: Young woman driving a scooter on Cozumel Island.

Flights to Cancún

Roundtrip airfare from Houston to Cancún typically costs around $200 on airlines like Frontier or Spirit this time of year, but you'll pay extra for baggage.

Budget Travel Tip : Be sure to set a tracker on Google Flights to keep an eye out for the best times to travel for less, and especially if you can be flexible on the dates.

PHOTO: Aerial view of the Coba beach in Quintana Roo, Mexico.

All-inclusive resorts to help save on your stay

Mexico is home to a bevy of beautiful properties, but the best bang for your buck when it comes to accommodations are all-inclusive resorts.

"All-inclusive hotels can be extremely affordable. And the best part is they allow families especially to budget," The Points Guy founder, Brian Kelly, told "GMA."

To make sure you're getting the best deal, he suggested "comparison shop online using online travel agencies, but when you hone in on the one you want, contact them directly and negotiate for an even better rate and extra perks like airport pickups."

PHOTO: Tulum beach and maya temple ruins by Caribbean Sea, Yucatan, Mexico.

"Choose the right resort, whether that's kid friendly or adults-only," Kelly said, "making the right choice is critical to your experience."

"Finally, take advantage of everything there is to offer," he said. "Go to the orientation and pay attention. You'd be shocked at some of the free, valuable activities you can get as part of your stay."

In Playa del Carmen, Sandos Caracol Eco Resort offers up to 55% off the best available rate all summer, plus two kids stay free.

Like many all-inclusives food and drinks are bundled into the price at Sandos Caracol, but so are the activities from pools with waterslides to bike tours.

PHOTO: A woman snorkelling in El Eden cenote along the Mayan Riviera in Mexico.

This region of Mexico is also home to beautiful ancient Mayan ruins and cenotes -- which translates to well -- and the all-natural cavernous pit makes a perfect place for swimming, diving and snorkeling.

Activities to enjoy the area like a local

Book off-site excursions during your stay, whether directly through the resort with any affiliated companies or going directly to an excursion company and ask for any potential discounts.

Tours of Tulum reveal ancient history

Nestled on the cliffs of Tulum lie ancient Mayan ruins that overlook the Caribbean Sea.

Tour services will take visitors through the area to fully experience the ancient Mexican culture, like ruins built over 800 years ago that served as a major port between Mexico and Central America.

Parks and pleasantries in Playa del Carmen

Take a trip to Parque Los Fundadores -- Founding Fathers Park -- in Playa Del Carmen to see free vibrant performances such as the Danza de Los Voladores -- the dance of the flyers.

From there, enjoy some local shopping along Fifth Avenue, but remember to bring cash and make money conversions at a local bank from home before the trip to save on foreign transaction fees.

Learn at least basic Mexican phrases and pleasantries to help make shopping less intimidating, plus being respectful and kind always pays off and it could even potentially help you haggle on prices.

Indulge in Mexican street food

While there's unlimited free food at an all inclusive resort, don't miss the chance to eat like a local and explore some cheap eats from taco stands and street vendors.

Escape Cancun crowds: 8 quieter Mexico beach towns for your next vacation

cancun yacht tour

  • Cancun is one of the world’s top tourist destinations, but there are a plethora of other, less popular Mexican beach towns just waiting to enchant travelers.
  • From charming surf towns to snorkeling along sea turtles, travelers should explore the diverse beauty of the rest of Mexico’s expansive coastline.
  • With no shortage of warm weather, sun and surf throughout Mexico, these destinations offer a quieter, less crowded experience.

Cancun reigns as one of the world’s top tourist destinations, and there’s no mystery why. The Caribbean Sea-adjacent locale has a myriad of sprawling beach resorts, clear turquoise waters and a vibrant nightlife. In 2023, Cancun welcomed over 21 million tourists .

While Cancun is beautiful and lively, there are a plethora of other, less popular Mexican beach towns just waiting to enchant travelers. From charming surf towns to snorkeling along sea turtles, travelers should explore the diverse beauty of the rest of Mexico’s expansive coastline.

With no shortage of warm weather, sun and surf throughout Mexico, these destinations offer a quieter, less crowded experience than enjoying Cancun alongside 30 million other tourists. 

Far Homes spotted hidden gems across Mexico’s coast, looking at the destinations’ natural beauty, recreational activity offerings, safety and accessibility to learn and experience the local culture. To assess each town’s safety ratings, Far Homes released a report looking at crime statistics from data by the Executive Secretary of the National Security System. While some of these spots are known to attract tourists, they’re nowhere near as saturated as Cancun or Cabo. 

Here are eight under-the-radar beach towns in Mexico to consider adding to your travel list.

Cancun without the crowds: Meet Isla Mujeres, a quieter Mexican getaway

Located about an hour from Puerto Vallarta, Sayulita perfectly balances bustling and mellow energy. “Sayulita is a fun little town full of eclectic restaurants and shops,” said Gene Alvarez, a local real estate agent from Net Real Estate who works with Far Homes. “With several great surf breaks and a laid-back atmosphere, it attracts surfers, backpackers, and bohemians.” It’s easy to get around for travelers not well-versed in Spanish, and many people rent mopeds or golf carts to cruise around the town. While the main beach in town, Playa Sayulita, can be crowded for both surfers and beachgoers, travelers can head north to the neighboring village of Playa San Pancho for quieter, more serene beaches.

Fly into Cancun Airport and head about three hours south to Akumal for a quieter escape from Cancun and Tulum. Scoring high with Far Homes for its natural beauty, Akumal has become more known among travelers for its pristine beaches and lush jungles. Must-dos in Akumal include snorkeling with sea turtles in the clear waters of the marine protected area of Half Moon Bay and swimming in the enclosed cenote Yal-Ku Lagoon, said local real estate agent Rob Kinnon from BuyPlaya. Just 15 minutes south is the famous Tulum Archaeological Site, where Mayan ruins made of limestone sit perched upon a cliff.

Puerto Escondido

Located in the Pacific Ocean-facing state of Oaxaca, Puerto Escondido is a rising destination for its world-class surfing breaks and easy-going lifestyle. Travelers can fly directly to Puerto Escondido International Airport, less than two miles from town. “From the trendy bars of Zicatela to the laid back vibes of La Punta, the town has something for everyone,” said local real estate agent Jon Ferioli from Bayside Real Estate. “And with nods from international magazines, Puerto Escondido is quickly becoming the go-to spot for digital nomads seeking inspiration and connection.” The town scored high for its activities offerings. Even if you don’t want to brave the often powerful waves, travelers can go on crocodile boat tours through the mangroves, witness the glowing bioluminescent plankton in two of the nearby lagoons at night, or visit Casa Wabi, a contemporary art and architecture museum. 

Isla Holbox

If you’re really itching to escape the crowds, head to Isla Holbox, a 26-mile-long car-free island located right off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. While the island has grown in popularity and therefore development, it still offers travelers a secluded beachside retreat. Travelers can wander the streets, which are paved in sand, barefoot or in golf carts – the main mode of transportation on the skinny island. To get there, travelers fly to Cancun International Airport then travel by car for two hours to Chiquila to board a 15-minute ferry ride to the island. While it may take more effort to visit Isla Holbox over Cancun or Cabo, it’s well worth it. The resort town ranks high for natural beauty, including bioluminescent lagoons and whale shark tours, and safety. 

Those seeking out the sun and sand will find Huatulco to be paradise with its 36 beaches and nine bays, and endlessly sunny weather. Less developed than Puerto Vallarta and Cancun, the small resort town offers activities like kayaking, hiking waterfalls or scuba diving, and is bordered by the Huatulco National Park. Of course, travelers can just relax on the beach as well. To get there, travelers can fly into Bahias de Huatulco International Airport, a short hour-and-a-half flight from Mexico City. “The international airport is only 10 minutes away, and the area attracts tourists looking for a more authentic Mexican experience and small-town feeling,” said Brent May, founder and CEO of Bayside Real Estate. 

Located on the Pacific coast in Oaxaca, Zipolite’s former hippie culture is still retained with its laidback, rustic charm and a focus on eco-tourism. The community evolved around a hippie beach culture and has now become known for its excellent restaurants, bars, trendy boutique hotels, and low-key party culture,” said May. Over an hour’s drive from Puerto Escondido International Airport, the town scored high for activities and safety, and there are not as many tourist traps as in the more developed parts of Mexico. The massive Zipolite beach remains Mexico’s only legal nude beach, but there’s also a western end known for surfing and a small eastern bay called Playa del Amor that's known among the LGTBTQ+ community. “

This sleepy fishing village of Mahahual has grown in popularity among travelers, thanks partly to cruise ships. However, it still has much to offer travelers, ranking high for culture and safety by Far Homes. “This charming coastal town is best explored by bicycle,” said Gaby Ortiz, sales manager at Maya Ocean, a local real estate broker. “As you pedal through its scenic streets, you can lose track of time, immersed in the natural beauty and tranquility of your surroundings.” To get to Mahahual, travelers can fly into Chetumal International Airport and drive for about two hours. Travelers eager to experience vibrant marine life will find Mahahual to be the perfect destination. Spanning nearly 72 miles, the largest barrier reef system in Mexico and the Caribbean, Banco Chinchorro, is just an hour-long boat ride away. The UNESCO biosphere reserve is home to coral, American crocodiles, rays, turtles, nurse sharks and even sunken ships. On land, travelers can visit the Museum of Costa Maya and the Chacchoben Mayan ruins to learn more about local history and culture. 

Todos Santos 

About an hour’s drive from Los Cabos International Airport on Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula, Todos Santos is known as a haven for artists and creatives as well as its colonial architecture. Nestled between the coast and the desert, the town ranked highly for natural beauty, safety and culture with Far Homes. If travelers venture away from the bustling town center – home to boutique galleries, shops and restaurants – they can go surfing at the nearby Playa Los Cerritos or hike the coast of Punta Lobos. “At one time a small fishing village, Todos Santos now boasts several chic hotels and world-class dining, but it hasn’t lost its indie soul. Make sure to stop at Jazamango for a true Todos Santos dining experience,” said Nancy Costa, a local real estate agent with Costa Cabo Realty.

The pools at Rosewood Mayakoba are noticeably less crowded than resorts in nearby Cancun and Playa ... [+] del Carmen.

Receiving an estimated 8.3 million tourists last year, the Mexican state of Quintana Roo—best known for destinations like Cancun, Playa del Carmen and Tulum—is one of the busiest destinations in the country. With beaches being public, it can be hard to find the peaceful reprieve one typically seeks when booking a tropical getaway. However there remains one enclave of tranquility amidst the beach bustle— Rosewood Mayakoba . Built on a canal system, the 620-acre resort is tucked away in Mayakoba , a private gated community 30 minutes from Cancun International Airport.

Rosewood Mayakoba is located in a private gated community filled with lush jungle, turquoise lagoons ... [+] and white sand beaches.

With 595 acres of placid lagoons, lush jungles and white sand beaches, Mayakoba feels a world away from the busy beaches of nearby Cancun and Playa del Carmen. The abundance of nature lends itself to countless outdoor explorations: from kayaking through the mangrove-sheltered lagoons to encountering adorable white-nosed koti on the 2.5 miles of nature trails to exploring cenote el burródromo, one of the country’s estimated 10,000 open air caves. Maintaining 80% of its mangrove forests, Mayakoba is a paradise for migrating birds making it ideal for bird-watching while offshore, the world’s second-largest barrier reef beckons divers and snorkelers to its crystal clear waters. While the idea of a gated community may sound off-putting to those who like to wander, the onsite “El Pueblito”—a small Mexican village with colorful mission-style architecture, Mexican restaurants and boutique shopping—provides a window into local culture.

Mayakoba's town square has its own mission-style chapel.

Of the four resorts contained within Mayakoba, Rosewood is the standout for its one-of-a-kind accommodations, award-winning gastronomy and locally inspired wellness offerings. Guests arrive to be escorted to their room, not by foot, but by boat. After a quiet ride through the resort’s winding canals, guests pull up to their room’s own private dock. The lagoon suites provide a fresh alternative to the typical Mexican beach resort room with rustic chic décor and light wood furnishings, outdoor showers, and plunge pools overlooking the lagoon.

A deluxe overwater lagoon suite.

Those still longing for the beach can opt for one of the ocean view suites: two- and three-story rooms overlooking the ocean and family pool, each with their own plunge pool and rooftop deck. While even the most basic rooms are impressive, the standout accommodations are the presidential suites and lagoon villas, which range from 3,497 to 7,000 square feet and are ideal for longer stays. Regardless of the type of room, all guests have access to 24-hour butler service.

The lagoon presidential suite has a spacious terrace and plunge pool.

While guests could easily spend all day lounging in own private plunge pool, the resort all has four pools and of course the beach. With a family pool, adults-only pool and hydrotherapy pool, there is something for everyone. The latter is a standout for its self-massage water streams and peaceful surroundings in Sense, A Rosewood Spa . Wellness-seekers will want to linger to experience the spa’s hydrotherapy circuit which includes a sauna, steam room, hot pool and cold plunge pool.

Sense, A Rosewood Spa has an outdoor hydrotherapy pool, sauna, steam room, and hot-cold water ... [+] therapy circuit.

An impressive variety of spa treatments , inspired by ancient Mayan rituals and incorporating local ingredients, include everything from men’s haircuts to anti-aging facials to hot-cold therapy massages. Outside, guests can experience a sensorial garden ritual guided by the ancient beliefs of the Mayan Shamans or the increasingly popular temazcal (sweat lodge) ceremony led by the resort’s resident shaman. In the latter, steam created from pouring aromatic water over hot stones detoxifies the body while the singing of mantras and sensorial rituals encourage self-reflection.

The cenote deck at Sense, a Rosewood Spa.

In the spirit of the Mayan Equinox on March 21, a new Copal and Cacao Gratitude Ceremony incorporates ceremonial drums, meditation and heart-opening rituals to clear and balance the mind. Those seeking a full-fledged wellness retreat can partake in the Cenote Healing Retreat: a multi-day journey customized to the guest’s needs with off-site visits to two “secret” cenotes in which guests experience a cleansing plunge to find inner transformation. Back at the resort, guests looking to turn their vacation into a wellness retreat will want to rest up in one of the Rosewood’s eight wellness suites: two-storey lofts which feature Ayurvedic amenities like essential oils and chakra stones, and wellness features like a meditation pavilion, circadian light lamp and reflexology fountain. Those seeking movement can find it in one of the resort’s fitness classes which range from indoor cycling to Bosu training to HITT and yoga on a paddle-board floating on the pool. Mayakoba is also home to El Camaleón, the first PGA Tour golf course in Latin America.

While the accommodations and wellness offerings are some of the best in the region, dining at Rosewood Mayakoba is a far cry from the typical Mexican resort fare. Designed to take guests on a culinary journey across the country, each of the resort’s eight restaurants and bars showcases a different region of Mexico. Seaside Punta Bonita restaurant offers a taste of Mexico’s Southern Pacific Coast, highlighting the culinary heritage of Mexico’s most diverse states: Michoacán, Guerrero, Oaxaca and Chiapas. Here, guests can learn how to make fresh homemade tortillas on the comal and take their pick from an assortment of the daily catches for a seafood-centric multi-course lunch.

Grilled snapper with pickled cucumber and xnipec, a spicy sauce native to the Yucatan Peninsula, ... [+] created by chef Michael Diaz de Leon.

Seafood is also the star at Agave Azul , the resort’s Baja-inspired restaurant that combines Chinese and Japanese techniques with local ingredients. Sushi gets a Mexican twist with in the incorporation of plantain, jicama and serrano chili while “Yucatan ramen” looks like pork belly in turkey broth topped with tortilla chips. Central Mexico is the focus at Casa del Lago which offers Mexican breakfast classics like chilaquiles and four variations of huevos rancheros in the morning and Italian-inspired fare in the evening.

Each of Rosewood Mayakoba's eight dining concepts showcase a different region of Mexico.

The standout dining experience, however, is found at Ceiba Garden & Kitchen . Set under a lantern-lit ceiba tree in the chef’s garden, long communal tables provide guests the rare opportunity to experience a multi-course menu with other guests and Rosewood staff. A multi-course dinner featuring seasonal ingredients from the Yucatan Peninsula and surrounding garden are cooked using traditional open-flame techniques and served as a Yucatecan music trio performs under the strings of twinkling lights.

At Ceiba Garden & Kitchen, guests have the rare opportunity to share a multi-course dinner with ... [+] other guests and Rosewood Mayakoba staff.

Afterwards, guests can keep the energy going at Zapote Bar , the resort’s cocktail crown jewel. Recognized as one of North America’s 50 Best Bars and the World’s 50 Best Bars, Zapote Bar is a cocktail-lovers dream offering reinvented cult classics (think: a pina colada made with aquafaba and mezcal), CO2- and nitrogen-infused carbonated concoctions, fermented cocktails and zero-proof elixirs.

Rosewood Mayakoba's Zapote Bar has been recognized on the North America’s 50 Best Bars and the ... [+] World’s 50 Best Bars lists.

Foodies will want to keep their eye on Rosewood Mayakoba’s calendar , as they regularly bring in chefs and mixologists from some of the most exciting restaurants in the world. The resort’s latest Yo Amo Mexico festival, which runs through the end of March, has offered guests several epicurean adventures including a three-day “Rockies on the Riviera” activation featuring Colorado chefs such as chef Ian Palazzola—the James Beard Award-winning chef behind Michelin-starred restaurant Frasca Food and Wine —and chef Michael Diaz de Leon of Michelin-starred restaurant BRUTØ .

Chef Michael Diaz de Leon of Michelin-starred restaurant BRUTØ serves a guest at Rosewood Mayakoba's ... [+] 'Rockies in the Riviera' activation.

In addition to culinary experiences featuring local and international chefs and mixologists, the festival has also brought in contemporary Mexican artists to lead workshops and curate onsite gallery presentations, and offered guests restorative wellness practices such as sound healing meditations and energy cleansing ceremonies led by their resident shaman. Proceeds from the festival support Centro Educativo, K’iin Beh, Rosewood Mayakoba’s school in Playa del Carmen.

Rosewood Mayakoba's distinct location built on a lagoon, not to mention it's diverse programming, ... [+] make it unlike any resort in the region.

From the locally inspired festivities to the distinctly regional cuisine, Rosewood Mayakoba provides the rare opportunity to immerse oneself in Mexico’s diverse culture without ever having to leave; stretching the potential of what a beach resort vacation can be.
