7/1/2023 0 Comments Grand velas all inclusive![]() Ambassador pool and activitiesĪt the Ambassador, you can also find a second kid’s club and a very cool teen’s club. ![]() Just be aware that the pool is not heated and even in March, it was pretty chilly!ĭespite the temperature, the kids loved ordering juice and smoothies at the swim-up bar and I was surprised by how many people participated in the water aerobics, hamster ball, and other pool games like water polo. The Ambassador building features a large pool, including a zero-entry toddler section, and a large beachfront, with chairs, service, and a beach bar. The beachfront property is the Ambassador building, and adjacent to it is the Grand Class, which is the adults-only building. The spa is spectacular and offers a unique water journey - the best spa experience I’ve ever had, but more on that later. It has its own gym, is home to the resort’s spa, has a miniature golf course, kid’s club, and Zen pools, and houses the Chaka and Sen Lin restaurants, as well as the Koi bar. The Zen section has three buildings and is also home to the resort’s conference center. The Grand Velas Riviera Maya has three main buildings: Zen, Ambassador, and Grand Class. If you do want to get off the property, you can arrange a tour of the Tulum Mayan ruins, visit one of the Xcaret Parks, or check out one of the many cenotes near Cancun. It makes sense in these parts to stay at an all-inclusive resort since it isn’t so easy to drive into Playa del Carmen or Cancun for dinner. Each hotel entrance is gated and the resorts are not visible from the road. About 45 minutes from the Cancun airport, the Riviera Maya is a strip of secluded resorts in the midst of the mangrove jungle. The Riviera Maya is located south of Cancun on the Yucatan peninsula, facing the Caribbean Sea. While the kid’s club and teen club turned out to not be as important, I’m pretty sure we got our money’s worth with how much these kids ate from the mini bar and room service.Īs soon as we arrived, we were greeted with a warm welcome and a true resort experience - which was sooo much better than the standard hotel check-in we had recently at the Ritz-Carlton Aruba. The 24-hour suite service may have spoiled them for life - I think the kids will all be calling the house landline to order dinner delivered for a while and my nephew will definitely miss the constant resupply of the mini bar’s stash of Oreos. The kids couldn’t have been happier and it turned out to be a perfect pick. ![]() The Grand Velas Riviera Maya is a gorgeous resort and it is extremely family-friendly. Instead of shelling out $700-1000 a night for a luxury resort and then adding on the expensive food and drink tabs, everything except premium wines, spa services, and tips are included at the Grand Velas Riviera Maya. There is also a Grand Velas in Nuevo Vallarta if it is easier for you to fly to the west coast.īut the nice thing about staying at an all-inclusive is knowing what you are getting going in. We were deciding between a few resorts, but ultimately the Grand Velas Riviera Maya won out because we heard the food was good, the spa was fantastic, and, unlike the nearby Rosewood Mayakoba, they had a teen’s club.

I know that is quite a wish list but we managed to find it all at the Grand Velas Riviera Maya with a bonus of an amazing spa! In this Grand Velas Riviera Maya review, I will cover accommodations, dining, spa, and activities. ![]()
