There’s a lot to choose from on the Caribbean coast of Mexico.

There are all-inclusives near Cancun; hip urban getaways in Playa del Carmen and rustic-chic retreats in Tulum.

But our favorite place to stay in the region has long been one that combines the best of everything: the Grand Residences Riviera Cancun.

The luxury resort on a beautiful stretch of beach in the laid-back fishing village of Puerto Morelos has almost impossibly large rooms, outstanding food and some of the best service you’ll ever encounter. Period.

And there’s never been a better time to stay.

Grand Residences

Right now, the property has launched a new opportunity for trips created before Aug. 31 that gives travelers a fully all-inclusive stay, round-trip airport transfers and Wi-Fi. Kids under 12 even stay free.

In other words, it’s the way to stay at the best-kept secret in the Mexican Caribbean.

For more, visit the Grand Residences.
