Maroma, A Belmond Hotel, Riviera Maya

The 40 Best Resorts in Mexico: 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards | Condé Nast Traveler

"Driving through thick mangroves to reach Maroma sets the tone: the palm-studded, 200-acre property blends whitewashed architecture and thatched roofs with Mayan-inspired curved stucco buildings and a heavy emphasis on Mexican craftsmanship—80 percent of furnishings were made in-country. Rooms feature Saltillo tiles, regional textiles, and in-room bars stocked with local spirits like pox and Mayalen Guerrero mezcal; Casa Mayor (chef Daniel Camacho) serves standout dishes like mind-blowing tomato salads, and the restored property still encourages exploration of nearby cenotes reached through underground caves." - CNT Editors
