As a travel agent who has explored numerous beach destinations, narrowing down my favorite spot is no easy feat. Some of my top favorites are Aruba, Costa Rica, and Hawaii. However, if I had to choose, the Riviera Maya in Mexico would be at the top of my list, it’s my go to and I am returning to this destination often.
The Riviera Maya is also an adventure seeker’s paradise. The natural beauty of the area is truly remarkable, with attractions like the Muyil River, where you can drift along tranquil waters surrounded by lush mangroves. Exploring stunning cenotes, which offer unique swimming experiences in crystal-clear natural sinkholes, is always a fun experience. Xel-Há, an expansive eco-park, provides endless activities such as snorkeling, zip-lining, and exploring beautiful lagoons. There’s no shortage of things to do, ensuring that your days are filled with excitement and discovery. Personally, I lost count of how many times I have been to this destination and still have made a small dent in all the excursions there are to offer!
One of the standout features of the Riviera Maya is its diverse culinary scene. Whether you're dining at a resort or venturing off the beaten path, you'll be treated to an array of mouthwatering dishes. The region is renowned for its delicious Mexican cuisine. If you know me I am always trying all the tacos! And do not forget the chips and guacamole made table side. You will also find a good mix of casual dining and fine dining.
What makes the Riviera Maya even more appealing is the range of accommodation options available. Whether you prefer a luxurious all-inclusive resort where everything is taken care of, or a charming boutique hotel that offers a more intimate experience, there’s something for everyone.
