Accommodations

Design that takes care of your senses.

All 539 suites, each measuring at least 1,184 square feet, are designed with the senses in mind: spa-style bathrooms, goose-down pillow menus, delicate bath amenities, and local art with an avant-garde touch set the stage before you've even pulled back the curtains to take in the unbeatable views over the ocean and coast.
Pool + Gym

Three areas, three different pools.

Each of the resort's three ambiances has its own pool experience: a jungle-surrounded pool in Zen Grand, a three-level infinity pool with ocean views in Ambassador, and an adults-only oceanfront infinity pool in Grand Class.

The resort's two high-performance fitness centers are located in the Zen Grand and Ambassador ambiances, both equipped with treadmills, stair climbers, bikes, and a full range of resistance and weight training machines.
Spa

A one-of-a-kind Water Ceremony.

The SE Spa has earned a Five-Star rating from Forbes Travel Guide for multiple consecutive years, offering a menu of rituals and ancestral treatments alongside a signature seven-step Water Ceremony—a journey through water in its many forms, from the chromotherapy steam room to sensation showers and an experience pool with cascades and bubble geysers.
Restaurant + Bar

Michelin-starred dining and AAA-rated restaurants.

Grand Velas Riviera Maya takes dining seriously: three all-day eateries and five AAA Four- and Five-Diamond restaurants, one of which is the Michelin-starred Cocina de Autor, cover the full spectrum of haute cuisine. You can dine in the restaurants or on your suite terrace, always accompanied by a thoughtfully curated wine and spirits list and the creations of the resort's expert mixologists.

Seven bars spread across the resort's three ambiances offer creative cocktails, curated beverages, and light bites—take the mixologist's recommendation or let them craft something just for you.
