If you’re looking to relax and rejuvenate this is the place for you.įrom the moment I stepped foot into the hotel with my boyfriend, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. The hotel is nestled neatly on the heavenly Maroma Beach which was voted the World’s Best Beach by the Travel Channel four years in a row (more on that later).Įverything about this hotel screams luxury retreat for adults. It’s much less developed than Playa and definitely worth a visit if you crave a laid back beach day in a new setting.Ī stay at the Secrets Maroma Beach Resort provides you with all the seclusion you could ever want from a tropical vacation without being out in the sticks. Once a small fishing village this place is home to a lot of locals and still possesses a charming old-world ambiance. Puerto Morelos is what I like to call Cancun’s almost-forgotten neighbor.
There are endless options for bars, coffee shops, restaurants, live music venues and more. You can actually walk the entire downtown area in under an hour if you wanted to. Playa, as it’s locally referred to, is a quaint coastal town with just the right amount of creature comforts along 5th Avenue (a 5-mile pedestrian-only walkway dedicated to all of your touristic needs). Playa del Carmen (where I live) is far more developed than Puerto Morelos…that said, it’s nothing like Cancun. Well, although in close proximity to each other the two are very different. So, what is Playa del Carmen and Puerto Morelos like? If you’re coming to the Caribbean, you want to feel like you’re in the Caribbean, right? While Cancun is ‘nice, in my opinion, ‘ it’s basically an Americanized city by the beach.įor me, the Riviera Maya has so much more to offer! When people tell me they are coming to Mexico to visit Cancun, I won’t lie, a piece of my soul dies (*cough cough* – drama queen). Secrets Maroma Beach Resort is located exactly halfway between Playa del Carmen and Puerto Morelos along Mexico’s Riviera Maya. My Review of The Secrets Maroma Resort includes:
While TripAdvisor is a good place to start unless you get someone as thorough as me, its user reviews rarely cover all bases.īecause I visited Secrets Maroma in Playa del Carmen just last week so this review is hot off the press, and if you’re an avid reader of my blog you should know, I leave no stone unturned. Safe to say my hosteling days are behind me. If I’m not comfortable, I’m not having a good time. I mean, c’mon, accommodation is a big deal, right?! In my ripening age, I’m a sucker for comfort. If you’re anything like me, you never book a place without obsessing over the TripAdvisor reviews first. Are you doing your homework on the 5* adults-only Secrets Maroma Beach Resort for your next vacay in sunny Mexico?
