Sitting just off the tip of the Yucatan Peninsula and bathed in sunshine, history and culture is the Riviera Maya. Think miles of pristine, white sandy beaches, deep blue oceans, and lush vegetation. A place filled with natural wonder, it’s also a thriving and diverse region that welcomes visitors all year round. Snorkel with turtles and whale sharks off the coast, or explore limestone caves dripping with stalactites. It’s all possible when you book one of our villas in Riviera Maya, Mexico.
Kitesurf on Tulum Beach, or leave the sand behind and discover more about the Mayan culture in Tulum town. Our top tip: head there first thing in the morning to beat the crowds and to catch the dazzling sunrise over the Caribbean Sea. For a totally different swimming experience, head to the region’s cenotes. These sinkholes create deep pools that are truly unique. Avoid the popular ones and head off the tourist trail to the delightfully serene cenote Nicte Ha. Back on dry land, it’s time to get a taste of the Yucatan, which has a distinctive cuisine. Three of its main ingredients are the hot habanero chilli, annatto, and surprisingly, Seville oranges. Get stuck into the national dish of Conchinita Pibil or pit-cooked pork wrapped in banana leaves and marinated in sour orange and annatto.
