"At Nizuc the tuna tostada variation arrives with salsa macha and mango, exemplifying one of the recurring tuna tostada riffs seen across Mexico City–inspired spots." - Jaya Saxena
"Located on 29 private acres of mangrove jungle at the tip of Punta Nizuc, this family-friendly resort is a convenient gateway for U.S. travelers and a launchpad for ocean activities. Guests can access the nearby Underwater Museum of Art — a submerged installation of 500 coral-encrusted sculptures about 28 feet below the surface — and encounter a thriving ecosystem of colorful fish and sea turtles. The 274-room property also highlights a 30,000-square-foot wellness facility with beachfront private treatment rooms; on-site PADI certification is not offered, though certification is available nearby on Isla Mujeres." - Chris Dong
"Nizuc Resort & Spa is no stranger to our World’s Best Awards – it made the list in 2021, 2022, and 2023. This small, stylish, and sophisticated resort manages to carve out its own secluded piece of paradise despite being adjacent to the Cancun Hotel Zone. Sleek open-air architecture and its 274 modern suites and villas melt into the oceanfront and jungle surroundings. Stone tile floors, polished dark marble, natural wood, and neutral beach tones add to the tranquil vibe, and the villas with soaking tubs and plunge pools feel like a true private island escape. Six gourmet restaurants offer delicious cuisine from around the world from China to Peru to Italy, while Nizuc’s three bars serve up excellent cocktails, views, and atmosphere. Additional experiences like paella classes, hand-rolled cigars, tequila and wine tastings, spa treatments, and private tennis lessons round out your stay nicely, while daily activities like kids' club programming, snorkeling and kayaking, and live music are included. The main pool and beach are family-friendly, and there is a separate adults-only pool." - Katherine Alex Beaven Katherine Alex Beaven Katherine Alex Beaven is a Los Angeles-based travel, food and drink, and culture writer.
