The resorts covered in the video are the Catalonia Playa Maroma (all-inclusive), Secrets Maroma (all-inclusive), and the Belmond Maroma (not all-inclusive).

Drone Video of Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya
I believe the last drone video of Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya I posted was back in 2016, but I’m posting another just to remind everyone what a spectacular adults-only resort this really is–take a look at the video and tell me what you think.
Drone Video of Barcelo Maya Grand Resort
This video was taken prior to the building of the adults-only section (Barcelo Maya Riviera), but it does show the rest of this mega-resort. The Barcelo Maya Grand resort is actually five (and soon to be six) resorts-in-one comprised of the Barcelo Maya Beach, Caribe, Colonial, Tropical, and the Palace resorts. I visited here in the summer of 2018, so if you want to read my review and see my pics you can click here.
Drone Video of the Hotel Zone
Just for fun–found a drone video of part of Cancun’s Hotel Zone. The drone didn’t make it as far south as the Westin, and also didn’t travel over the northern part of the Hotel Zone, but it was fun to take another peek at all the resort’s along the east side of the Zone.
Drone Video of Hotel Xcaret
If you haven’t checked out Vacation Couple’s drone videos, you should. They are “ambassadors” (social media promoters) for Air Canada Vacations and have gone to some beautiful resorts shooting great videos wherever they go. Check out this one of Hotel Xcaret Mexico, one of my all-time personal favorite resorts.
Akumal Bay Drone Video–With Buoys
I love drone videos of resorts since it gives me an overall view of the surrounding area as well as the resort’s general layout. Here’s a good video of Akumal Bay with its system of buoys to delineate where one can snorkel–my last visit to Akumal Bay in 2015 was before the “madness” started about beach access/snorkeling restrictions implemented by the Mexican government. While the new rules help keep the turtles less stressed, it can be confusing for snorkelers.
Drone View of Dreams Riviera Cancun
One doesn’t hear too much of Dreams Riviera Cancun anymore; it’s a great resort with beautiful guest rooms and lots of dining options. For those of you unfamiliar with the resort, or to those of you new to this particular Dreams resort, here’s a bird’s eye view of its layout and exterior amenities. What do you think?
Ocean Riviera Paradise Resort Layout
If you’re wondering what the overall layout is like at Ocean Riviera Paradise, take a look at the following video which was made just before the resort opened its doors several months ago. The resort has been accepting guests since December 2016.
Drone Video of Royal Hideaway Playacar
Take a look at Royal Hideaway Playacar from a drone’s perspective–this was taken prior to the renovations, so a few outdoor spaces may look a tad different here than what the resort currently looks like (re. Deck and Grill outdoor space specifically). Have you been here since the completion of the renovations, and, if so, how does it compare?
Catalonia Playa Maroma Drone Video
Here’s a short drone video of Catalonia Playa Maroma. Take a look!
