The newly rebranded and renovated Hyatt Zilara Riviera Maya (what used to be Secrets Capri) recently opened; here’s another live streaming event which was hosted by Christine Turner, a travel agent out of western Canada. It shows both indoor and outdoor spaces with Christine providing commentary about resort amenities and services.
For those Secrets resorts admirers and aficionados, Secrets Maroma has always been a favorite–not only for the brand and what it offers, but for its location on a world famous beach.
I have been feeling quite fatigued with both Christmas preparations and work and needed a quick “mind vacation” to one of the most popular all-inclusive adults-only resorts in the Riviera Maya, Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya. This resort has a reputation for being both luxurious and fun and attracts lots of couples and groups of friends traveling together.
Since I try and provide information on so many all-inclusive resorts in Cancun and the Riviera Maya, sometimes I forget that several even exist. It’s not that they are not a good resort, they just fall off my radar from time-to-time.

Now here’s a resort I’ve wanted to visit for quite some time…Akumal Bay Beach and Wellness Resort is located right on Akumal Bay (also known as the Bay of Turtles) and offers vacationers a great stay in a jungle setting with wonderful snorkeling and diving opportunities just steps away from your room. It offers multiple oceanfront guestroom buildings and pools, multiple beach bars, a sushi bar, oceanfront yoga opportunities, a spa and gym, plus a buffet and four a la carte restaurants. The only negative here is the lack of swim-up bars, but there are bars set up all along the entire beachfront so you won’t have to go far to get a drink. And let’s not forget the resort’s rooftop Jacuzzi rooms with sweeping Akumal Bay and ocean vistas, my personal favorite.
Christine Turner, a travel agent based out of Canada, just hosted a livestream from the brand new adults-only Hyatt Zilara Riviera Maya yesterday (remember Secrets Capri? This is the same property but fully renovated with some new additions). Yes, the resort is already open as of Dec. 1, 2022 and has some amazing looking additions and renovations. Like oceanfront plunge pools? You can book it here. Like the ability to not fully upgrade but want butler service? You can do that here as well with a daily additional fee for just butler service.
I’ve decided to basically end another year of my blogging attempts by doing my own version of all-inclusive “Best Of’ in various categories. Naturally, these are just my personal opinions and those of you reading this post will obviously have different opinions in some categories. Let me know what your personal favorites are as well… Continue reading
