Riviera Maya, Mexico: Adults-Only Indulgence

Further west, on the coast of Mexico, Margaritaville Island Reserve Resort Riviera Maya takes the island state of mind and gives it a grown-up twist. This adults-only all-inclusive resort was designed for those who want sun and serenity without the crowd. It’s a place where mornings can start with a swim-up breakfast, afternoons can linger over cold beers at LandShark Brewery and Grill and evenings end with gourmet food and warm breezes. The experience feels both elevated and easy, a polished version of the brand’s famous barefoot vibe.
