10 things we love about the Mexican

FEBRUARY 17TH, 201110 things we love about the Mexican RivieraWhen the icy winds of February threaten to put a chill on your love life, it's time to shed some layers and fly to warmer climes.
1. Our massive open-concept suite made entirely of cool white marble that felt grand, modern, and princess-like. 2. The complimentary bottle of high-end sipping tequila, ice and citrus welcoming us in our room, perfect for sampling on the ocean-view deck.
4. A huge array of healthy juices at breakfast, including our favourite, “vampire juice” with beet and apple. 5. No need to miss your Americano—rooms are equipped with high-end Nespresso machines and a fully-stocked hosted minibar with snacks, should you wish a quiet retreat on your deck, watching the sunset. 6. Fresh mixed seafood ceviche, served poolside, with handmade chips.
8. Four high-end restaurants serving French, pan-Asian, Italian, Spanish, and traditional Mexican cuisine, plus numerous bars and bistros. Don't miss the huevos rancheros for breakfast at Azul. 9. A hydrotherapy spa like no other. Block off an entire afternoon for the Water Journey with hot and cool water experiences, a reflexology pool, massaging "water beds," a mud masque to refresh your skin, herbal steam, and sauna. Completely transformative. 10. And did we mention the weather? Grand Velas All Suites & Spa Resort, 1-866-230-7221, http://rivieramaya.grandvelas. |
