I’m just back from a trip to Riviera Maya, where I was able to visit two incredible properties before traveling to Cancun for a travel industry conference where I met with over 400 colleagues and partners.

My first stop was Rosewood Mayakoba, which is located just 45 minutes from the Cancun airport, making it an easy spot for a sunny vacation.

Rosewood Mayakoba is situated among protected mangroves and features direct beach access, multiple pools, an adults only beach club, creative dining outlets, an expansive kids club, and extremely attentive and kind staff.

With all suite style rooms, the accommodations are spacious and feature plunge pools for a quick dip after the pool or beach. The property is expansive, so it’s important to know where you’d like to be within the property for your stay. I loved being close to the main dining and pool, but some guests may want to be closer to the beach.

During my stay I loved lounging by the pool, grabbing a Mezcal cocktail at Zapote Bar before dinner, and enjoying dinner at Rosé one evening, a special Italian dining experience at Casa del Lago during the month of October. Prior to visiting Rosewood Mayakoba I didn’t understand the hype around Mezcal, but now I do!

Who is Rosewood Mayakoba good for? Whether you’re looking for the perfect spot for a family getaway or a quick vacation as a couple, it’s a beautiful destination to spend time connecting with family and friends.
