There are some major renovations and additions being completed at the adults-only Heaven section at Hard Rock Riviera Maya.  These include several new restaurants (Wai–Thai food, Umo–Mexican Yucatan food, and Faro which is not completed yet), a new pool, pool renovations, “beach” renovations (this resort has no actual beach access; instead it has a calm inlet with salt water and a man-made sandy beach), and the addition of swim-up rooms (Deluxe Swim-Ups are listed as Garden View, but some closer to the ocean may have a partial ocean view).

Grupo Xcaret has announced a new addition to their All-Fun Inclusive offerings–a catamaran cruise!  My understanding is that the catamaran leaves from La Casa de la Playa (the resort immediately to the north of Hotel Xcaret Arte), but right now I can’t seem to find out more information about the details.  The new catamaran cruise is for all guests of Hotel Xcaret Mexico, Hotel Xcaret Arte, and La Casa de la Playa, all Grupo Xcaret properties.

I admit it, I’m a beachaholic.  Can’t get enough of a great beach.  And Mexico has some very beautiful beaches which can rival the world’s best–Tulum and Cozumel, (as included in the video below), plus I would add east-facing Cancun Hotel Zone beaches, Playa Maroma and Xpu-Ha in the Riviera Maya as well.

Royalton Splash Riviera Cancun just opened and YouTube has its first complete video out!!  Looks like the resort has a lot to offer families including the large water park, two lazy rivers, separate younger children’s water park, three story kids club, bowling (yay!), trampoline area, and laser tag.  Given the info on the video, only half of the water park is open until Feb. 2023, so take note that if you stay here prior to that not all amenities will be open…sadly, pretty standard these days for new resort openings.

If you are young or young at heart and like to party at your resort while on vacation, here’s an adults-only all-inclusive option for you.  The Royalton CHIC Cancun is right in the heart of Cancun’s Hotel Zone (it’s near Sunset Royal Beach and Le Blanc resorts) and not too far from Plaza Forum, Cancun’s hot nightspot area with all its popular clubs.  This resort is compact but offers two beachfront pools plus a rooftop bar/restaurant/pool plus party space which holds nighttime neon parties and daytime pool foam parties.
