Belmond Maroma Resort & Spa

Hedged by dense jungle and overlooking one of the Yucatan’s best stretches of crescent-shaped white sandy beach, this hidden gem is a haven of well being where you can start your day with yoga and end it with a session in the Temazcal.

Location

Tucked away in a breathtakingly beautiful corner of the Yucatan Peninsula, Belmond Maroma Resort & Spa offers pure escapism with a touch of Mayan magic.

Hedged by dense jungle and overlooking one of the Yucatan's best stretches of crescent-shaped white sandy beach, this hidden gem is a haven of well being and relaxation where you can start your day with yoga and end it with a session in the Temazcal - a traditional Mexican steam bath.

Accommodation

Beautifully furnished and finished with individual pieces of indigenous art, the accommodation here is not only refined and spacious, but perfectly reflects the warm colours of the Caribbean and the unique culture of the Yucatan Peninsula. Amenities include a king-sized bed, spacious luxury bathroom, terrace with bamboo shutters opening to views of the gardens or ocean, kaftans, nightly turndown service with aromatherapy, early morning in-room coffee and wireless internet.

Dining

El Restaurante offers a taste of Mexico with a menu of delicious regional specialities. El Sol Tapas and Restaurant serves Mediterranean cuisine with a Pre-Hispanic Mexican twist. La Cantina bar boasts a vast selection of homemade beers and tequilas as well as a light menu of botanas, traditional dishes usually served with drinks. And for something a little different, head to Freddy's Tequila and Ceviche Bar, which offers the largest collection of tequilas in the region, accompanied by a menu of ceviche, sushi, sashimi and a wonderful beachside location.

Facilities

Just offshore in the lapis-blue Caribbean is a spectacular fringing coral reef stretching along the horizon. This exquisite Belmond hotel is arguably the best on the Riviera Maya.

At this award-winning resort you can spend your days lazing in the ocean or by one of three pools, enjoying a treatment or massage at the resort's spa, playing a set or two of tennis, strolling through flower-filled gardens full of parrots and butterflies, exploring some of Mexico's great heritage sites, diving in mysterious underwater caves, or enjoying world-class shopping and entertainment in nearby Cancun.
