Banyan Tree Mayakoba

Riviera Maya

OVERVIEW

Located just 40 minutes’ drive from Cancun International Airport, Banyan Tree Mayakoba is a far cry from the beach clubs and bars of Playa del Carmen. Set on a spectacular beach on the paradisiacal Riviera Maya, the resort is an oasis of calm amid a dense mangrove forest, where the cries of many different species of bird can be heard at dusk. Getting around is easy via a network of walkways and boat tours amid the mangrove channels.

Banyan Tree hotels are famous for their spas, and Banyan Tree Mayakoba is no different. Lauded with awards including Best Luxury Destination Spa (America), the spa is home to a new concept known as The Rainforest, which features a hydrothermal circuit comprising hot and cold cabins, a rain walk, aroma steam chamber and Finnish sauna. Many of the treatments are infused with local ingredients, including Melipona honey gathered from Mexican bees.

There are 11 restaurants to choose from, ranging from modern Thai cuisine to tomahawk steaks. Each of the restaurants has a fantastic setting; Haab is set in an intimate courtyard lit by flaming torches, while you can dine on a tranjira boat for a romantic evening for two, or sit out on deck and listen to the sounds of the mangroves.
