I guess it’s really no surprise, but Karisma dumped their Azul Beach Resort Riviera Cancun property 2024 after the horrific electrocution death of a guest in one of the resort’s hot tubs.  It’s now a Tafer resort–the deal occurred later on in 2024.  The new name is Palmar Beach Resort Riviera Maya.  It’s still family-friendly and is being marketed as a multigenerational resort.

While Tafer did an extensive renovation, they didn’t really change major things about the resort.  It still offers great accommodations including wonderful family suites, and highly acclaimed Le Chique restaurant is still in operation with its Michelin star chef and creative dishes (“molecular gastronomy”, if you know what that is, is used at this restaurant where dishes are deconstructed to their basic elements then these ingredients are changed into something else to make, supposedly, the same dish).

Right now the resort is offering an awesome discount–up to 44% off, and kids stay free all year, not just while the discount is valid.  I saw several hundred dollars off rooms p/night, make sure you sign up for Tafer’s free loyalty club in order to get the best deals!  While some other Cancun Tafer properties are all-inclusive optional, it looks like it’s the only way to book this deal–I’m assuming this property is all-inclusive only, but make sure you are booking the all-inclusive package.
