About the Hotel

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.

Amazing!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 20 hours ago

We just had our wedding at Grand Velas, and I can honestly say the service, amenities, and overall experience were absolutely top notch. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the incredible service, and the food was excellent across the board. What truly made our experience unforgettable was the concierge service. Every request, big or small, was handled seamlessly and with such care. They genuinely go above and beyond to make everything perfect. If you’re staying in Grand Class, you must request Braulio, Airy, and Alfonso. They are beyond amazing. We’ve visited Velas several times and have had Alfonso as our concierge more than once, and he truly is the best. By the end of our stay, Alfonso felt like family. We will definitely be coming back!

Exceeded Every Expectation ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

From the moment we arrived, our stay at Grand Velas Riviera Maya exceeded every expectation we had. What truly made our experience exceptional was the level of service—especially from our personal concierge Carolina and Daniel. They were incredibly attentive, responsive, and thoughtful, making sure every detail of our stay was perfectly arranged. Whether it was dinner reservations, special requests, or simple check-ins, they went above and beyond. The food was another highlight of our trip. Every restaurant we tried delivered world-class quality, with beautifully presented dishes and flavors that rival fine dining establishments. It’s rare to find an all-inclusive resort where the food is consistently this outstanding. Lastly, the staff made all the difference. Every single person we encountered was warm, professional, and genuinely dedicated to making our stay unforgettable. You can really feel the passion and pride they have in what they do. Overall, this was one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had. We left feeling relaxed, well taken care of, and already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommended!

Amazing stay at Grand Velas!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

My family and I returned from a week at Grand Velas and it was amazing! We had our 9 month old and 5 year old with us and it could not have gone smoother. Everything from the kids club, babysitting services, restaurants and pools was so great. Our concierges - Nicolas and Jeronimo - were so attentive to our needs and very personable and helpful! They provided all the baby items we needed and even set up a few fun surprises in our room for our kids. Would definitely return in the future.

Beautiful resort with Excellent service

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

The resort exceeded my expectations. First off it was very beautiful. The landscaping, the pools, the restaurants and the best hotel gym I’ve seen Second .. the staff/ service. The entire staff was top notch. Incredibly attentive and friendly. It was an added pleasure having Jessica as our concierge. We were there for a wedding so most of our plans were pre-set so we didn’t use her as much as we would have liked but she checked in regularly and made sure everything was up to par at all times. She was always eager to help. The room service was also great and would come surprisingly fast. The presentation was also very pleasing. All in all the resort was excellent. Would absolutely recommend it
