By: Guy Britton - December 2, 2015

The Riviera Maya’s Mahekal Beach Resort is set to reopen in December, following the completion of a three-year, $16 million “re-imagination.”

The project, which first launched in 2013, is slated for completion in mid-December.

It will include the addition of 74 palapa-style bungalows, along with a new luxury spa and fitness center and a wood-burning oven restaurant and bar.

The property will also include a new resort-sized swimming pool and hot tub, along with new meeting space.
