There’s a hip toes-in-the-sand eatery in the heart of the tony Mayakoba community on the Riviera Maya in Mexico.

The Andaz Mayakoba Resort has debuted its new Sotavento beach restaurant, under the stewardship of executive chef Miguel Gomez.

The menu is a mix of fresh seafood, salads, appetizers and desserts.

“We are excited to introduce this unique feet-in-the-sand restaurant concept at Andaz Mayakoba and believe it is a great addition to our existing diverse culinary offerings,” Gomez said. “We carefully curated the menu to deliver a casual yet authentic Mediterranean, seafood-forward culinary experience and want to provide a space where guests can sit back, relax and enjoy their meal while savoring the stunning ocean surroundings. With the opening of Sotavento, we are thrilled to deliver an incredible dining experience, activate the senses and inspire magical memories and moments.”

The eatery, which is open every day from 11 AM to 10:30 PM, includes live entertainment by resident DJ Jared Dietch, with a “vibrant and casual” decor.

Sotavento means “where the wind takes you.”
