Travel Info

Riviera Maya, Mexico

Stretching down the Yucatán Peninsula’s Caribbean coast lies the Riviera Maya, also known as the Mayan Riviera. The Riviera Maya coastline stretches from the southern end of bustling Cancun to the north, down south to the Mayan Ruins in Tulum, and in the center of the coastline, the once sleepy fishing village turned popular city of Playa del Carmen.

The coastline today is dotted with an abundance of all-inclusive resorts as well as smaller boutique hotels perched on the idyllic sandy beaches, this coastline is most historically notable for its Mayan past. The pre-Hispanic civilization lived throughout this region and the impressive archeological ruins remain a popular tourist attraction today including Tulum and Chichen Itza

The northern stretch of the coastline extending from Playa del Carmen up to the southern end of Cancun is most heavily occupied with resorts, but the southern end of the coast stretching toward Tulum is home to smaller villages and resorts that are bit more spread out along the less crowded beaches. The most popular activities for visitors to this region include visiting the Mayan ruins, eco-tourism parks including Xcaret and Xel-Ha, snorkeling along the expansive barrier coral reef, golfing and of course soaking up the sun on the relaxing beaches.

Palmaia, House of AïA

Palmaïa, The House of AïA, invites guests to celebrate the complexity of the Riviera Maya while reconnecting with nature, the sanctity of life, and the true human spirit. In a region dotted with resorts and hotels, Palmaïa stands apart with its location between a pristine white sand beach and cool-water cenotes on the cusp of the undisturbed jungle, and thoughtful programming created for guests to explore and step outside their usual comfort zones.

The Architects of Life program, led by the resident Shaman, offers personal growth practices such as cacao ceremonies, yoga, multi vibrational sound healing, meditation, plant ceremonies, and ancient practices. While the Rituals of Sound program features experimental musicians, who transport guests through curated deep beats and deep-fusion electronic music with acoustic overlays.

Palmaïa offers 234 exquisitely designed suites complemented by stunning ocean views. While on property, guests can dine from a selection of four restaurants along with a rotating food truck, each serving plant-based menus and non-plant-based options.

The resort also includes a jungle spa, Atlantis, where ancient ceremonies like the storied Temazcal are included in the menu of services. At Atlantis, one is guided by the Book of the Nine Paths to Health, designed to treat emotions as root causes rather than physical pain.

Palmaïa is a gifting community and provides everything guests need in the cost of a stay, so guests can enjoy unrestricted access without the hassle of exchanging currency.
