Fairmont Mayakoba 

A secluded ocean escape

Amidst the lush rainforests and sparkling waterways of Riviera Maya, a tropical paradise awaits. Edged by palm-fringed white sands, this secluded sanctuary is the perfect place to escape the everyday. A stay at the Fairmont Mayakoba is as relaxing or adventurous as you make it. Lie horizontal on sun-soaked sands, snorkel through coral-filled waters, soothe your muscles in the spa, play a round of golf, or kayak through the Caribbean Sea. And afterwards? Clink cocktails whilst tucking into delicious bites from all over the world.

Why we love Fairmont Mayakoba

  • The shops, restaurants and nightlife of Playa del Carmen are all within easy reach but you’ll feel wonderfully secluded
