One Of Cancun's Best
It's hard to believe that a short 30-mile bus ride from the
Spring-break haven of Cancun is one of the top-ranked hotels in
Central America and an exotic, unrivaled tropical paradise.
While it sounds like typical romance copy, we're not just giving
lip service ...the Mayan Riviera is not your standard Mexican
vacation destination nor is Maroma Resort a regular lodging
establishment, having recently received the Conde Nast Travel
Magazine Reader's Choice Award as the #3 hotel in all of Central
America. The local culture and natural resources are just some
of the attractions that separate Riviera Maya from other popular
destinations in Central America. For starters, the second
largest barrier reef in the world is located here, providing
unsurpassed water activities like snorkeling, wind-surfing,
kayaking, sailing, diving, bottom fishing, deep sea and fly
fishing. The unspoiled beach offers guests the utmost in privacy
and unparalleled natural beauty.
Maroma Resort is a showcase for unique arts and crafts produced
in each region of Mexico, including statues, hand-painted
bathroom tiles, hand-loomed natural cotton bedspreads, and
decorative pillows and throws and soft wool rugs. The rooms and
public areas feature original art by Mexican and International
artists and each room also has
its own special objects. Maroma
has 58 rooms and suites situated among lush gardens, cooled and
shaded by coconut palms on one side, open to the warmth of the
sun and sea on the other.
Relax in a king-sized bed, luxury bath with sunken tub,
sparkling pool, or beachfront Jacuzzi-you decide what to do
indulge in first. Afterward, let any remaining troubles melt
away in the spa, where you can choose between massage,
reflexology, Reiki, craniofacial, facials, whole-body
treatments, mud, aromas, Ajurveda, yoga, meditation, rebirthing,
crystal therapy, and the ancient art of the temazcal-the
purifying and healing ritual of the Mayan steam bath.
While you'll feel a world away from unnatural office lighting,
congested freeways and the demands of everyday life, you have
the choice of staying connected to the modern world. Maroma?s
multi-media theater features a state-of-the-art sound and
projection system with over 380 movies to choose from.
