#SECRETS AKUMAL RESORT UPGRADE#

A few sun loungers and palapa-style umbrellas line the beach, available on a first-come-first-serve basis.

Spend days on the white sandy beach, relaxing under swaying palm trees or swimming in the crystal-clear bay. There are also two separate outdoor whirlpools, and poolside service is readily available. Winding pathways, edged by lush lawns and palapa-roofed buildings, lead to three separate swimming pools: a freeform lagoon pool, a large main pool and an infinity pool with a swim-up bar and ocean views. The beautifully landscaped, tranquil grounds contain over 4,000 different plant species.

You can upgrade to a suite with swim-out access or choose a Preferred Club Suite with extra benefits – including a daily a la carte breakfast at the Seaside Grill and access to a private lounge, which serves afternoon hors d’oeuvres, exquisite desserts and fine liquors. You'll also enjoy complimentary access to the hydrotherapy circuit at the spa once during your stay. Each sumptuous suite features a whirlpool bathtub, a complimentary mini-bar and a private terrace or balcony with views of the tropical landscape, pools or Caribbean Sea. The 434 spacious suites are decorated in a contemporary Mexican style, enhanced by traditional Mayan artwork, La Huasteca-style textiles, natural stone tiles and warm gold accents. Meanwhile, Cancun International Airport is 57 miles from the property. You can also visit the original Mayan ruins of Xel-Há, just six and a half miles from the resort – or the city of Cancun, around 64 miles away. Two miles away, the impressive Cenote y Laguna Yalku also presents wonderful snorkelling opportunities. This barrier reef in Akumal, which means ‘land of turtles’ in Mayan, is home to a large green sea turtle population. The world-famous coral reef lies just 150 metres from the beach, presenting unparalleled snorkelling and diving opportunities. The resort offers direct access to a white-sand beach, bordering calm waters that are protected by the bay. Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya sits in Akumal on Mexico’s dreamy Riviera Maya coastline. Other highlights include an extensive activities programme, three impressive swimming pools and a luxurious Secrets Spa by Pevonia. You’ll have access to unlimited premium drinks and multiple dining options within the resort, and suites are beautifully decorated, with whirlpool tubs for two.

Designed for adults only, this romantic Mexican retreat is ideal for couples seeking a relaxing beach holiday. The all-inclusive Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya overlooks a two-mile stretch of beach along Akumal Bay, neighbouring one of the world’s largest coral reefs.
