Amazing Cancun Adult Only Resort
Located just 10 minutes north of Playa del Carmen is one of Riviera Maya’s best-kept secrets – the Viceroy Riviera Maya, an adults-only resort.
We were greeted with cold towels, and coconut lemongrass tropical drinks, then escorted to our private villa with its own plunge pool. On the way, we were given a Mayan blessing by a local shaman to purify the soul.
When we arrived at our private cabana, we were presented with a selection of locally made soaps – chocolate, lavender, rosemary and lemongrass. One of the best welcomes we’ve experienced at any hotel.
With a full service luxury spa, a boutique with locally handcrafted products, an award-winning restaurant featuring “Mayaterranean Cuisine” and plenty of activities, we enjoyed every minute of our stay at this Cancun adult only resort!
Highlights
We experienced many magical moments during our stay including the highlights below.
Walk the seven-miles of white-sand beach at sunrise and sunset. Sign up for a yoga class. Book a Mayan treatment at the Wayak Spa. Plunge into the resort pool or your private pool at your cabana. Take a day trip to see ruins and visit ancient cities. Go shopping for souvenirs in nearby Playa del Carmen. Or relax in your hammock!
Dining Experience:
La Marea Restaurant is a romantic dining spot overlooking the Caribbean Sea and the cuisine is exquisite! The menu features a contemporary interpretation of Mexican cuisine with Mediterranean influences. The Chef presented his recommendations from fresh seafood to local prime meats. We dined at the resort for all our meals and savored a variety of healthy and flavorful dishes. The resort staff also surprises guests with snacks and drinks poolside.
Wayak Spa:
One of the top spas on the Riviera Maya is the Wayak Spa. Surrounded by a lush tropical jungle, the spa is located in a beautifully constructed large cabana complete with steam rooms, sauna, treatment rooms and a jacuzzi.
You can choose from a number of treatments – massages, facials, body treatments and body wraps. If you’re interested in experiencing the Mayan culture, we recommend booking this treatment — Xaman Ek (South Star Abundance Ritual)
Here’s the description: “Relive ancient rituals and share the magic together while we spoil you in our Xaman Ek Cabin—the South Star cherished by the Mayan people and said to guide couples through a path of love, comprehension, harmony and welfare.
Massage beds are positioned for Xaman Ek, asking her to grace the couple with a sense of abundance. Enjoy a relaxing massage with our healing hands—using our exclusive love oil to balance the chackras and reorder the energy between the couples. This massage is 50 minutes and is harmonized with the sounds of the waterfall. Continue with our herbal touch bath by resting inside a tub made from a Zapote Tree and infused by medical herbs harvested from our garden that surround your body and your soul. Experience the magical effect of Mirne Essence that awakens the senses and brings good luck, peace and rest while celebrating your union with two glasses of drinks that bind the couple and the Divinity.”
Luxury Villas:
Each guest has a spacious private luxury villa surrounded by a lush jungle. Our spacious patio had a private heated plunge pool, outdoor rain shower and a hammock in the sitting area.
The high cabana ceilings and elegantly designed room includes a king-size bed with fine Egyptian linens and AC as well as a ceiling fan. Each private villa offers solitude for guests.
We love this luxurious refuge in the tropical jungle, with paths meandering to a beautiful pool and beach.
Viceroy Riviera Maya is considered one of the Top 100 Resorts in the World. You’ll want for nothing, as you’re surrounded with a warm ambience and exceptional hospitality. It is definitely a must cancun adult only resort! The Viceroy experience feeds the senses and guests leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.
