Crystal clear ocean waters, lush jungles and intriguing cenotes make Mexico's Riviera Maya a tropical paradise. It is here that all-inclusive luxury is redefined at the new Grand Velas Riviera Maya. Fronting the white sand beaches of the Caribbean coast, the resort is fringed by a lush Yucatan jungle, promising a rich selection of activities on land and at sea, as well as the serenity of a secluded beach. The brilliant Caribbean offers opportunities for kayaking, sailing, sport fishing or a refreshing swim, perhaps with sea lions and dolphins. Choose to explore the jungles by horseback or on an exciting zip line tour through the canopy, stopping to relax in a natural hot spring. The Riviera Maya is a playground in the sun, and now with Grand Velas, it is home to spectacular tropical luxury.

Loved the overall experience we had here! The location was not far from the airport. Our room had a great view of the sea and the main pool, it was super close to get to everything we needed while we were here. The cleanliness of the place was great. The service was amazing while we were here, if we needed something we were able to get it quickly.

Came with good friends for five days. The resort did not disappoint. It is beautiful and well kept. The staff absolutely elevated the experience. Alberto, our pool assistant at the Ambassador section, could not have been better. Great friendly service, met our requests flawlessly and learned our preferences early on. There was great food everywhere on the resort. Housekeeping staff kept the room in tip top shape at all times. Mrs Traveler needed to use the on site medical staff for a minor issue. Doctor made a housecall to our room. No hassle at all. Concierge was able to anticipate needs and help. The only disappointment of the trip was to relentless seaweed on the beach. Made the beach unusable during our visit. We would visit again.

We loved our time at Grand Vellas. The resort was clean, the staff was professional, personable and provided top notch service. Abraham at the ambassador pool swim up bar was outstanding. Our concierge Nicholas was already ready and willing to help with whatever we needed. The food was outstanding. Luca was by far our favorite.

Great food. Great time. Jeronimo and Nicolas were excellent. Great with the kids too. Xochiquetzal was a top-notch babysitter when we went out without the kids, and they really seemed to like her.

The resort was great with impeccable service. Raul Gomez assisted me with mobility from one place to another. He assured a wheelchair was available to me at all times. He went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. Raul is a valuable asset to your staff. He's an all-around good person and made my stay a wonderful experience.
