Maroma sits on the Riviera Maya coast in Quintana Roo, off Carretera Cancún-Tulum at Kilometre 51, across a stretch of jungle and white-sand beach. Originally opened in 1995 and now part of the Belmond portfolio, the property reopened in 2023 after a complete renovation that added a new collection of waterfront suites, a new wellness offering, and a reworked dining programme.
The accommodation lineup leans residential, with the signature suites and villas at the top of the range, including the four-bedroom Villa Maroma, the private-pool Villa Xuxú and Villa Mariposa, and the Pavo Real Suite. Oceanfront Suites are the entry point for the renovated stock.
The Maroma Spa by Guerlain anchors the wellness side, set within the jungle and structured around purification and rebirth rituals. The food programme is contemporary Mexican across multiple venues, with a Fire and Friends chef series bringing in international Michelin talent. The hotel was listed in the World’s 50 Best Hotels.
Maroma has four restaurants and bars at the property. Casa Mayor is the all-day venue, serving sustainable Mexican cooking with 90% of ingredients sourced from Mexico and over half from the Yucatán Peninsula, including tacos and quesadillas hand-prepared by Maroma’s La Tia, Olivia.
Woodend by Curtis Stone is the signature, a beachside restaurant from the Australian chef cooking seafood over open fire, now listed in the Michelin Guide. Bambuco by Handshake handles mixology, with cocktails designed by Mexico City’s Handshake Speakeasy, and Freddy’s Bar covers all-day beachside drinks and small bites.
Maroma Spa by Guerlain takes the wellness side, structured around the four elements with signature treatments including Mayan Power (Fire), Talisman of Immunity (Earth), Purifying Cenote (Water), and Spirit of Mayan Music (Air).
Facilities cover nine treatment rooms, a hydrotherapy circuit with steam room and sauna, a swimming pool, jacuzzi, cold plunge, and a traditional temazcal. The apothecary is set up for workshops on healing plants and ancestral recipes.
Maroma is on the Caribbean coast of the Yucatán Peninsula, in Quintana Roo, around 30 minutes south of Cancún International Airport and a short drive north of Playa del Carmen.
The setting puts the resort within easy reach of the Riviera Maya’s cenotes, coral reefs, and Mayan archaeological sites, including Tulum and Cobá. The local Akumal turtle beaches and the Sian Ka’an biosphere reserve are also within driving distance.
The Oceanfront Suites are the entry point to the renovated stock, sized between 60 and 106 sqm with direct Caribbean views from the beachfront position.
Standard kit covers a minibar, terrace, smart TV, and the brand’s full bathroom spec. The right starting point for guests prioritizing the sea outlook without committing to villa-level pricing.
The Oceanfront Villa steps up to a two-bedroom layout with a private pool and Caribbean views, sized between 106 and 116 sqm. Dedicated service, exclusive Riviera Maya activities, and premium amenities come as standard.
The natural step up for families or two-couple bookings wanting their own pool and a generous shared footprint.
Villa Maroma is the flagship, a private retreat blending Mayan heritage with modern luxury. Four suites sit alongside a private pool, terrace, and full villa-only access.
A dedicated chef, nanny, and exclusive activity slate come as standard. The most generous category at the property, designed for larger group bookings wanting maximum private space.
