same name is nearby and it is a small,

picturesque village. The magical hotel

zone offers both luxurious and ecological

options. The entrance to the Sian Ka’an

biosphere reserve is located here.

comfortable development, showing

respect for its ecosystem, where

groups can find what they need for a

successful event. It is home to hotels of

all sizes, marinas, yachts, scuba diving,

a dolphinarium, a maritime museum,

a shopping area, open air cafés and

gourmet restaurants.

AkumalThis bay, with its transparent waters,

is home to sea turtles that come every

year to nestle, offering a marvelous

natural spectacle. It is a favorite place

for scuba divers, marine biologists,

cave divers and nature lovers, and

there are all kinds of hotels, from large

scale resorts to ecological cabins

facing the sea.

Puerto MorelosThis is an enchanting fishing village

with beautiful, wide beaches. It has

large “all inclusive” hotel complexes

with their own convention centers. This

is in addition to the Cancunmesse, a

spacious and modern exhibition center

for large events, such as the COP 16,

that took place in 2010.

Playa del CarmenThe liveliest and most colorful town in

Riviera Maya! The favorite place for

those who love the combination of the

Maya Culture, Caribbean atmosphere

and Mexican hospitality, with eclectic

flair which has made this city and its

Fifth Avenue famous worldwide. In the

comfortable hotels.

in many varied styles, almost all with

the “all inclusive” plan, and they offer

great and spacious areas for groups

and conventions. The beach in this

area is simply amazing. Spectacular places that have it all!

One of the great attractions of Riviera Maya, which no

other place in the world has, is what the ancient Maya

called “the infra-world”: cenotes, underground rivers and

ancient formations that create a magical world of light and

darkness in crystal clear waters.

The Riviera Maya parks offer exciting activities, such as zip lines

and rappel. Visitors can also discover the beauty of nature

and cultural wealth of our country at Xcaret, Xel-Há, Xplor,

Río Secreto, Selvática, Hidden Worlds, Aktunchen and Punta

Venado, just to mention a few.

Programs for groups and companions

There is no better experience in Riviera Maya than exploring the magical underwater universe; the Great Maya Reef runs parallel

to the coast, offering a wonderful spectacle and the best settings for underwater activities such as scuba diving, snorkeling and

also sport fishing.

Golf is one of the preferred activities of convention

participants and their companions. In Riviera Maya we

have golf courses designed by famous design companies

that challenge you in the most spectacular settings.

In Riviera Maya there are magnificent dolphinariums in

which visitors can have incredible experiences with these

intelligent marine mammals, as well as getting up close to

lovely manatees and delightful sea lions.

Visitors can pamper themselves in one of our spas after hard

days of sessions and meetings; they offer peace and harmony

to body, mind and soul.
