Tucked among the tropical gardens and white sand beaches of Tankah Bay, the AAA Four Diamond award-winning resort has everything needed for an unforgettable vacation. It offers gourmet dining options, unlimited top-shelf spirits, nightly entertainment, swimming pools, and a private beach area, just to name a few.

The expansive resort juxtaposes high-end contemporary design against impressive Mexican colonial architecture. Each room has a private terrace or balcony, marble bathrooms, a bottomless mini-bar, and 24-hour room service. If you're looking to unwind, head to The Dreams Spa by Pevonia, where you can create personalized spa products before indulging in a traditional Mayan spa ceremony.
