Choose Your Perfect Mayakoba Hotel (And Room!)

The first step to an unforgettable Mayakoba stay is, well, choosing where to stay. Mayakoba’s four world-class resorts guarantee comfort, relaxation, and impeccable service, yet each of them has its own style and personality. 

 

Alila Mayakoba: The newest member of the Mayakoba family, Alila is rooted in peace, calm, and rest. This is an excellent option if you want to immerse yourself in the wisdom of nature and local Maya culture, living every day slowly and thoughtfully. While there is no kids club, the resort provides a tranquil environment for little ones to explore.

Banyan Tree Mayakoba: Asian traditions meet Mexican wisdom at this recently renovated resort, where every single villa boasts a private pool. Book the gorgeous Family Residences and make the most of your time together. Make the most of the Banyan Tree Family package, featuring perks like daily breakfast, an in-villa movie night, and complimentary meals for kids under 11.

Fairmont Mayakoba: A dream for family vacations and the largest resort in the destination, Fairmont Mayakoba features 11 dining outlets, several pools (including an adult-only pool), a spectacular Beach Club, and two kids clubs, guaranteeing variety and fun throughout your trip. 

Rosewood Mayakoba: Privacy and elegance are the name of the game at this Mayakoba resort, where each suite guarantees total privacy and serenity. The enchanting kids club will be a favorite among the youngest ones in your group, while everyone will delight with beach time at Aquí Me Quedo.

 

 

Make the Best of the Kids’ Clubs in Mayakoba

There’s nothing quite as relaxing as knowing your kids are having fun and making new friends while you get some R&R –especially when you know they are in great hands. That’s the beauty of the kids clubs at the Mayakoba resorts, designed especially to inspire and entertain kids with a series of engaging activities.

Fairmont Mayakoba features two kids clubs. Balam, next to La Laguna, offers indoor and outdoor spaces for kids ages 5–11, as well as a curated area for teens featuring videogames, books, and games. By the beach club, Coatí features indoor play areas, as well as a pool and a sandbox. 

At Banyan Tree Mayakoba, the kids club is conveniently located by Sands Beach Club, placing kids at the best location in the resort, while parents can relax fully, knowing they can check in –or join in the fun– at any time. Aside from crafts and sports, kids can engage in environmentally-inspired activities, like the Paper Recycling Workshop. 

Rosewood Explorers, the kids club at Rosewood Mayakoba, presents an incredible program designed to spark creativity and curiosity in every little guest. From cooking classes and painting sessions, to outdoor explorations to the cenote, no two days are alike.

 

Wellness in Mayakoba: Carve Out Some Me Time

Taking time to slow down is essential during any trip to Mayakoba. Whatever wellness means to you –be it staying active, sleeping soundly, or indulging in a massage–, options abound for every member of the family. 

Each of Mayakoba’s four resorts is home to its own world-class spa, with its distinct style and personality. At Banyan Tree Mayakoba, the Banyan Tree Spa draws on Thai healing traditions and ancient Mexican wisdom. Its Rainforest hydrothermal trail is not to be missed, guiding you through a series of hot and cold thermal experiences designed to soothe the body and quiet the mind.

The Fairmont Spa offers an expansive treatment menu that spans from spiritual treatments inspired by the Moon, to massages infused with Mayan wisdom and high-tech facials. Between sessions, make sure to unwind at the Mexican gardens, outdoor Swiss showers, and heated pools. The spa’s fitness center is one of the best in the area, with certified trainers always available to help you reach your fitness goals. 

Sense, A Rosewood Spa, placed on its own private island within the resort, creates an authentic sanctuary for wellness, inspired by local botanicals and the ancient wisdom of the Riviera Maya. Signature experiences like the Kuxtal Sensory Garden Ritual and the Ayurvedic Couples Ritual are perfect reflections of the spa’s commitment to rooting every guest in the beauty of their surroundings. If the youngest family members are in need of relaxation, the Spa offers facials, massages, manicures, and pedicures for kids ages 11 to 16. 

If you’re staying at Alila Mayakoba, the resort’s deep connection to nature guides its wellness philosophy. Stillness is the goal, and an incredible way to find peace in between family adventures. Treatments inspired by Maya elements include the Flame Couples’ Ritual  and holistic journeys like Eb’, or Path, featuring your choice of wellness session (like yoga or Pilates), followed by a splash in the hydrotherapy circuit, and a massage.
