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.

The most beautiful room overlooking the ocean. Service was first class. Thank you Rosario for taking care of us during our stay. If you are traveling with adults only I recommend staying in the adults only section. We look forward to coming back again!

Absolutely phenomenal. I spent quite a bit of time searching for where I wanted to spend my birthday and a trip with my boyfriend as we travel a lot, we are often hesitant with all inclusive resorts because the food isn’t great. I would truly give this entire trip 10/10 because the food was amazing but that wasn’t even the best. The best the SERVICE! Carolina was our personal concierge and she went above and beyond daily to make sure we were taken care of. I miss everyone so much! The staff everywhere was so welcoming and happy and every single day and meal they were giving me birthday gifts and dessert and singing to me the most personal hospitality I’ve ever had at a resort or hotel. I recommend doing the bike tour and the SPA! WOW! 10000/10 at the spa- hydro massage and a massage- so incredible I felt like a princess. The views and the rooms were incredible and modern. Everything was just so perfect, we cannot wait to come back with family soon.

The staff here is absolutely incredible. Our concierge Jessica was very kind and assisted us without hesitation to make sure we had the best experience. The spa here was an experience unlike any other and made us feel immediately rejuvenated. I highly recommend, even if it’s not your usual go-to! This was our first time here and we look forward to coming back again!

The place was sparkling clean, comfortable, and relaxing! The entire staff was more than accommodating, friendly, and eager to assist with anything. I am very, very, very impressed with how clean and well-maintained it was for such a large space, seeing so many visitors. The food was ok, everyone found something they liked. Super fancy, beautiful presentation, took a long time. Azul and the pool/beach food were our favorites (shrimp tacos!) Nora was our concierge, and she was fabulous! Really everyone was so accommodating.
