This resort is located 10 miles north of Playa del Carmen on the Caribbean coast of Mexico. Viceroy Riviera Maya is a secluded refuge carved from the primitive Mayan jungle, with spectacular ocean views, near the small village of Xcalacocco.
Mexico’s Caribbean coast was once the home of the Mayan civilization whose greatness is still being discovered in the tropical forest fringed by a turquoise sea. Legend has it that poetry can be heard from the whispering ocean. This resort combines this dramatic jungle setting, with pristine, sweeping ocean views. Overlooking 8 miles of pristine beach, the resort encompasses a rejuvenating Mayan spa using ancient treatments and a two gourmet restaurants serving, modern Mexican cuisine with fresh, local ingredients in either a beachfront, or a romantic candlelit location. Individual villas, authentically built of native wood and stone in keeping with the region, have private pools and an intimacy you won’t find anywhere else!
