Located less than an hour south of Cancun, the Hacienda Tres Ríos is a centerpiece in the once sleepy beach town of Playa del Carmen, Mexico.
A stay at this all-inclusive resort includes two aspects of the Yucatán Peninsula we love; water and food. Sustainably built on an important ecosystem of fresh water rivers, 10 cool-water centoes and a lush jungle, this luxurious hideaway offers worldly restaurants and activities throughout its Nature Park.
Guided snorkeling and kayaking tours down the mangrove-lined rivers showcase the area's tropical fish and wild orchids. Most unique is its interactive blindfold-led Five Sense Adventure Tour. Afternoons can be spent lounging by the pool, or reveling in the crystalline Caribbean waters on a private yacht.
Kitchen tours, culinary demonstrations and tequila tastings are also offered. Foodies will enjoy the chef's table, as your palate will savor the multi-course offering that delicately balances creativity and technique. For delectable cappuccino and bite-size petit fours visit Pâtisserie Café de Paris. But don't get too full, there's a jacuzzi for two on your deck!
