Property Overview

Tucked into a lush rainforest near Playa del Carmen, Viceroy Riviera Maya is an adults-only beachfront retreat built around just forty-one private villas, each with its own plunge pool. The setting strikes a balance between seclusion and adventure, with white sand beaches and turquoise Caribbean waters on one side, ancient cities and hidden ruins waiting to be explored on the other. Ancient wellness therapies, regionally inspired cuisine, and the constant backdrop of the jungle make this one of Riviera Maya's most immersive stays.

Agent Tips

  • For the most privacy, book a Viceroy Villa, which comes with a secluded backyard terrace, private plunge pool, sun deck, and a moon shower, all just steps from the beach and resort restaurants.
  • If you're after more room to spread out or entertain, the two-story Ocean View Villas are the best choice.
Accommodations

Beachfront villas nestled between the shore and the rainforest.

Viceroy Riviera Maya's forty-one private villas are designed for guests who want seclusion without sacrificing proximity to the water. Each villa comes with its own plunge pool, and the most coveted positions sit right on the edge of the resort's pristine white beach, with full ocean views and direct access to the sand.
Pool + Gym

A lagoon pool steps from the Caribbean.

Viceroy Riviera Maya's lagoon pool sits just steps from the beach, making it easy to drift between the two at your own pace. The resort's Dine Anytime, Anywhere policy means food and drinks can follow you to the poolside.

The fitness center at Viceroy Riviera Maya is tucked into the rainforest and offers far more than a standard gym setup. Alongside the usual equipment, guests can choose from yoga classes spanning Vinyasa, Ashtanga, and Chakra practices, as well as meditation programs, circuit training, and suspension and resistance bodywork.
Spa

Ancient Mayan traditions and treatments.

WAYAK Spa draws on centuries-old Mayan healing traditions to create an experience that feels genuinely rooted in place. Surrounded by tropical jungle and the sound of waterfalls, the full-service spa offers an extensive menu of massages, facials, and energy therapies, all incorporating ingredients foraged from the surrounding forest, one of the world's most biodiverse sources of native herbs and natural curatives. Every treatment is tailored to the individual, with the overarching goal of genuine mind-body restoration rather than a standard spa checklist.
Restaurant + Bar

Journey through the flavors of Mexico.

Dining at Viceroy Riviera Maya centers on two alfresco restaurants – Coral Restaurant and Bar and La Marea – both drawing on the rich culinary traditions of Mexico while casting a wider international net. Ocean views come as standard, and the bar program leans into regional ingredients and flavors. With the resort's Dine Anytime, Anywhere policy, the kitchen is never far away regardless of where the day takes you.

Coral Bar sits poolside just steps from the ocean, and is an easy place to start the evening or let it wind down naturally. The bar's signature Jungle Water cocktail, a mezcal, passion fruit, and lemon blend finished with agave syrup and a pansy flower, is reason enough to pull up a stool, served in a traditional Jicara, an indigenous drinking vessel.

    Viceroy Riviera Maya sits right on the Caribbean shore, about forty minutes south of Cancun Airport and fifteen minutes from the restaurants, bars, and shops lining Playa del Carmen's Fifth Avenue.
