You can head for the Riviera Maya, on Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, and do nothing but sip cocktails on tropical beaches. But there's so much more on offer. Mayan ruins, eco parks, world-class diving – they’re all on the cards along this 30-kilometre stretch of coastline, which takes in lively Playa del Carmen and the quieter Punta Allen. Just so you know, the beaches on this stretch of coastline sometimes experience increased levels of seaweed – called sargassum. It’s influenced by the weather and ocean currents. If your hotel’s affected, the staff will do everything they can to clear it.
4* Ocean Coral & Turquesa by H10
In Riviera Maya, Mexico - Caribbean Coast, Mexico
The Ocean Coral & Turquesa by H10's food scene ticks off eight globe-trotting eateries, a patisserie and four bars.
You’ll need more than two hands to count all of the facilities here. Eight restaurants – a buffet and seven à la cartes – four pools and an arm’s-length roster of activities are the tip of the iceberg. There's no wonder it's a popular holiday spot with locals as well as sun-seekers.
This place is a winner when it comes to locations. It’s by a silk-smooth beach, where sunbeds and thatched umbrellas line up along the sand. Out at sea, there’s a coral reef nearby, which you can explore during a scuba diving lesson.
