Where to Stay:
Where to Stay:
Design, Detail and Discretion Luxury starts with where you sleep— but more importantly, how you feel when you wake up.
At Rosewood Mayakoba, you’ re transported by boat to your private suite hidden within a mangrove lagoon. Your butler leaves your favorite coffee at your door in the morning. The bathtub has its own view. Nothing seems overdone— just right.
Hotel Esencia is a former private estate turned boutique resort that feels more like an artist’ s retreat than a hotel. Here, every detail is intentional. Rooms are sunlit, minimal and elegant. The clientele? Discreet. Understated. Mostly in linen.
Classic Vacations features both Rosewood Mayakoba and Hotel Esencia in its curated collection of sumptuous beachfront escapes across the Riviera Maya.
In Tulum, the vibe shifts. Properties like Habitas and La Valise are designed with soul: stone basins, raw woods, outdoor showers, local art. At Habitas, the rooms are tented sanctuaries with canvas walls, palapa roofs and hardwood floors— some with private plunge pools and ocean views. The on-site restaurant, Moro, cooks over open fire, and the hotel offers sunrise yoga and cacao ceremonies. La Valise, meanwhile, features jungle and beachfront suites, including ones where the bed rolls out onto a private terrace so you can sleep under the stars. Some have soak tubs or plunge pools and there’ s even access to a private cenote.
Looking for off-grid? Casa Chablé— a remote ecoluxury resort within the Sian Ka’ an Biosphere— is accessible only by boat or 4x4. The reward? Ultimate seclusion, private-chef dining and Wi-Fi only if you ask for it.
Once a sleepy fishing village, Mahahual has blossomed into a refined yet authentic culinary destination, thanks to its proximity to the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef
