Just steps from the ocean, Riviera Maya is renowned for its pristine beaches, lush forest, Mayan ruins and superb diving and snorkelling, including Cozumel - one of the world's premier destinations, first made famous by French marine pioneer Jacques Cousteau.
At the heart of Riviera Maya is the 240-acre private community of Mayakoba and the Fairmont.
This eco-friendly resort features a variety of guest rooms and suites which are set within a low-rise building and the 90 casitas, which overlook the beaches, canals and lush mangrove forest. Located in the heart of a tropical jungle lies the amazing Mayan themed Willow Stream Spa and fitness centre.
Fairmont Mayakoba offers activities for the whole family including golf at El Camaleón, home to Mexico's only PGA Tour event, and a daily supervised Kids' Club programme.
Between sunrise over the Caribbean Sea and a night sky filled with the same brilliant stars that inspired the Mayans, you'll have plenty of time to savour the fare at one of four international-class restaurants, two of which are AAA Four-Diamond Award winners, or take advantage of the full exchange privileges with other restaurants at hotels and resorts in the Mayakoba community.
