Banyan Tree Mayakoba: Paradise Just Got More Posh

 

If you are ready to embark on a five-star stay in Mexico, Banyan Tree Mayakoba is sure to beckon to you. Dedicated to a true feel of Asian hospitality, Banyan Tree offers an upscale yet comfortable stay. After undergoing a $50 million renovation, this piece of paradise just got a bit posher. 

Explore this five-star eco-resort which is surrounded by indigenous fish and bird species in a carefully maintained ecosystem amidst nature. As you find yourself being whisked away to this Mexican retreat with lagoons and mangroves – plus natural dunes, coral reefs and the Riviera Maya Coast – your escape is full of scenery and plenty of style. 

Their multi-million-dollar expansion includes 34 private Beachfront Pool Suites, a new Sands Beach Club where you can lounge around in their beachfront lounge, infinity oceanfront pool, all-day dining restaurant and sleek raw bar. There is even an expansive Rangers Club for kids. Find serenity at the Banyan Tree Spa, where you can still enjoy ocean views from every massage room. 

Get your fall off on the right foot at this resort with the recently added Lagoon Pool Villas. Overseen by the internationally renowned Sordo Madaleno Architects, this expansion project draws inspiration from multisensory experiences – adding to your overall experience. Take in the tropical setting of the surrounding wildlife and the turquoise sea from the new Beach Club and Beachfront Pool Suites. With natural, local materials including chukum, a limestone-based stucco, as well as tropical woods mixed with marble, these indoor-outdoor areas blend seamlessly with their surroundings. This A-list property also takes pride in its rich heritage and culture, as can be seen with traditional Mexican artistic accents, especially the use of Mexican clay as a raw material. 

Their brand-new accommodations include the Beachfront Pool Suites where you can wake up to the sugar-sand beaches of Mayakoba. These spacious suites span 1,740 to 3,155 square feet, making them ideal for romantic getaways or family retreats. Choose from both king and two queen options, as well as the opportunity to connect two rooms to form two-bedroom suites. Have sweet dreams in your stylish suite which also features an interior patio, outdoor shower and whirlpool bathtub, as well as a private solarium with a heated private plunge pool. 

Staying true to its name, you will see stunning sunrises from your spacious Beachfront Sunrise Pool Suite. Enjoy a king bed and the resort’s unique amenities. The luxurious Lagoon Sunset Pool Villas not only offer a private oasis, but they are also the resort’s first overwater villas which are gently placed in the crystal-clear lagoon, just steps away from the beach. With an open layout and over 2,000 square feet, these two-story villas showcase a seamless indoor-outdoor atmosphere. Take in the views from your private solarium. All your haute accommodations also come with your very own host. 

Other delectable dining options and unique excursions include a traditional and romantic dining experience onboard a trajinera boat – date night just got dreamier – and even a Mayan feast in the jungle. 

Say “I do” to a wedding ceremony in a lush landscape or book a business meeting where their team will plan every detail to perfection. From the beach to outdoor verandas and ballrooms, there is a layout to fall in love with.
