Tropical Paradise at Riviera Maya Resort in Mexico Posted: 29 Jun 2012 10:14 AM PDT Set in a perfect landscape in Mexico, Riviera Maya Resort is often described as a tropical paradise, washed by the Caribbean Sea. The six-star accommodation units offer guests a high level of comfort and a little bit more, ensuring a perfect getaway. Tropical forests, azure waters, the world-famous golf club El Camaleón- all these wrapped in an unforgettable atmosphere. Here are some further details from the staff of the resort: “Set down under the mangrove canopy, disturbing scarcely a branch, Riviera Maya gives the impression that it grew out of the very forest it calls home. The 401 elegant rooms include lagoon and jungle view casitas, as well as beach area suites located on the resort’s 47-acre retreat-like setting, and offer private furnished balconies, spa-style bathrooms and luxurious amenities“. The property also features four restaurants promising tantalizing tastes, a café and a spa located in the heart of a tropical jungle on the area’s natural lagoons.
