Under the vast blue skies of Mexico's Riviera Maya stands Mayakoba, as beautiful as the nature that surrounds it. Once just a dream of a resort village with first-class hotels dotted along crystal clear waterways and white sand beaches, Mayakoba has fast become a reality on the Caribbean coastline.

Mayakoba has grown and evolved to include the immaculate greens of Greg Norman's 18th hole El Camaleon golf course, the luxurious casitas of Fairmont Mayakoba, the much-anticipated Rosewood Mayakoba suites and the unique all pool villas of Banyan Tree Mayakoba. The Viceroy Mayakoba is soon to be discovered.

Created to harmonize with the unspoiled tropical forest, Mayakoba is connected with a series of lagoons enabling guests to wander effortlessly from place to place through the resort using the "lanchas" (covered boats) as well as a network of trails. Mayakoba: a luxury destination like no other, where you are immersed in unspoiled natural beauty and the mysteries of an ancient civilization.
