1. GRAND VELAS RIVIERA MAYA
Situated on a white sand beach bordered by the jungle, Grand Velas Riviera Maya epitomizes elegance.

Grand Class caters to couples with an all-inclusive experience perfect for honeymooners.
Relax with a cocktail in hand at the adults-only infinity pool or on the beach under swaying palm trees.
Other highlights for couples include fine dining, movies on the beach, stargazing for two and a seaside picnic. Honeymoon perks include turndown service with fresh roses, an 80-minute Mayan massage for couples and a romantic dinner on the beach.
All of the resort's guest rooms are oceanfront, with private terraces, plunge pools, Jacuzzi bathtubs and a bar that includes fine tequila.
Mexican artwork on the walls adds a sense of place to the unique all-inclusive honeymoon experience.
