Fairmont Mayakoba

The Fairmont Mayakoba embraces the best of the beautiful Riviera Maya. With lovely oceanfront accommodations, it is a great choice for A-listers and those wanting a spectacular experience. With its many lagoon-facing casitas, the resort adapts in a perfect way to the Mayakoba concept of residing on tropical inlets filled with exotic birds, plenty of marine life to watch and natural foliage. The hotel has just 34 "beach area" accommodations. These are considered the top location, for their direct access to the resort's beautiful infinity pool and the ever popular ocean front Las Brisas Restaurant, Terrace and Lounge Bar. Butler service is included to enhance the luxury of your stay. Guests say the butler service is not overly intrusive, but there when you need it. Each morning, the resort serves an over-the-top amazing buffet breakfast; think local dishes and hot breakfast items, fresh fruit and cereals. A menu is available for those who wish to order a la carte style. Over breakfast, your butler will meet with you to help you plan your day's activities. They will also use this opportunity to check and make sure you are happy with your accommodations and if you would like to request any additional items to be sent to your casita. If you decide to go for the top accommodations at the resort, we suggest you book the two-bedroom Presidential Suite "El Camaleon". This oceanfront abode measures 2,205 square feet and has a beautiful view of the ocean, a view of Cozumel and hole no. 15 of the El Camaleon Golf Club, which hosts the PGA Mayakoba Golf Classic each November. El Camaleon, which has a private infinity pool, also has a private stairway to the beach and can become a large three-bedroom suite when combined with an adjacent Ocean Front Casita. The suite has a separate office area with sweeping ocean views just in case you need to catch up on business or hold a private meeting. Another great choice is a Beach Area Casita Suite; Room no. 806 is spacious and spans 1,113 square feet. It includes a master bedroom with a soaking tub and separate shower stall. A wrap-around balcony looks out to the canals and lagoons. This suite has its own rooftop solarium with an infinity pool overlooking the entire resort and the beautiful Caribbean Sea. A private dinner or couple's massage is perfect for the romance seeking couple. Staying in a casita gives you the true eco-experience. When you sit on your terrace, you can listen to the birds calling each other, watch the ducks swim by and see the turtles grazing in the sunlight. Schools of fish are to be seen everywhere you look. The resort is ideal for couples, groups and families. Because of its sprawling geography, everyone has plenty of space to themselves, and can enjoy getting around the huge resort by chauffeured golf carts that arrive promptly whenever called for. Mexico's Riviera Maya is filled with plenty of amazing activities, if you can break away from the Fairmont Mayakoba long enough. The concierge is happy to help you with arrangements outside the resort. A must-see is Sian Ka' an Biosphere, a UNESCO site where guests can float on canals filled with native birds. The concierge can arrange for a private guide who speaks English, Mayan and Spanish. Better yet, you can even get a guide who is an authentic Chaman. Another private tour option is a visit to the Mayan archeological site of Chichen-Itza, acclaimed as one of the New 7 Wonders of the World. This activity is coordinated with a luxury tour operator who is an archaeologist and a specialist in ancient Mayan architecture . There are several elegant dining options available for guests to choose. One notable option is a craft beer tasting with Luis Garces, who offers a selection of four local cervezas artesanales, paired with Mexican tapas. The concierge can help you set this up. A special place for so many reasons, Fairmont Mayakoba has a huge following of repeat guests. Our Experts love this resort and believe you will too.
