Few destinations on earth cause as much amazement as Riviera Maya. What makes this
destination special is the privileged location on Mexicos Yucatan Peninsula, where the turquoise
waters of the Caribbean Sea embrace the powdery white sand of the beaches that cover the
coastline. The 120 km of Caribbean coast that stretches the length of Riviera Maya exudes the
multifaceted spirit of the destination. Sun and Sand, Maya Culture, ziplining, cenotes, diving and
snorkeling, shopping and nightlife are just a few of the many exiting options Riviera Maya offers
to provide their guests with a truly unique and marvellous experience.
Welcome to Riviera Maya!
