While Cancun is by far the most popular resort destination in the Mexican Caribbean, demand is skyrocketing for several destinations near the coastal hotspot.
One of them is Isla Mujeres, a quaint small island just 15 minutes off the coast of Cancun. This week, Marriott announced the grand opening of Almare, A Luxury Collection Resort on the trending tropical island.
Marriott’s newest Mexican Caribbean property boasts 109 lavish suites designed to connect guests with the island’s gorgeous nature and stunning surroundings.
As travel to Isla Mujeres soars this winter, here’s what travelers need to know about this trendy new accommodation.
Marriott Aims To Win Over Winter Travelers With New Isla Mujeres Resort
The busy winter season is just around the corner, with thousands of travelers setting their sights on the Mexican Caribbean’s warm weather and splendid beaches.
Few destinations in the region can compete with Isla Mujeres when it comes to the sheer beauty of its beaches, not to mention its astonishing array of luxurious resorts.
As if the island’s dozens of existing top-rated properties weren’t enough, this week, Marriott officially opened its latest resort in the sun-soaked region.
Almare, A Luxury Collection Resort is the latest mid-sized property to join Marriott’s growing list of Mexican Caribbean properties. A chic eco-friendly adults-only all-inclusive, this quaint property is situated in a quiet area far from the crowds.
Aimed at clientele seeking a peaceful retreat amid pristine nature, Almare boasts just 109 suites, each carefully crafted with elements inspired by nature. From standard rooms to suites that overlook the ocean, guests can find a variety of room types to suit a range of needs.
Aside from its sumptuous rooms, Almare offers numerous wellness amenities for travelers craving a break from their everyday routines.
The resort’s standout facility is Alma Spa, boasting a range of beauty treatments & pampering guests with local ingredients for a fresh tropical glow. Travelers can also enjoy an outdoor pool lined with palm trees.
For those seeking natural beauty, Isla Mujeres’ top-rated white-sand beaches are just a stone’s throw away from this luxury resort. Two of the island’s most popular beaches – Playa Norte and Playa Centro – are ranked as some of the best in the world and are a must-see attraction when visiting.
Guests can also look forward to savoring local flavors at Almare’s six bars and restaurants, which serve up both local and international cuisines.
For an authentic Mexican experience, try out BOGA, a fashionable eatery that creates sensational flavors using Mayan methods. For a contemporary approach, opt for Seasalt, which delights travelers with international foods and 360 nature views.
Rates for the new resort start at $750 per night for two adults in November, with prices potentially significantly higher during peak travel times.
Each year, Isla Mujeres is one of the hottest destinations for travelers in the Mexican Caribbean. A mere 15 minutes from Cancun by ferry, the laid-back tropical island is home to thousands of hotel rooms, although it’s also a hotspot for daytrippers.
Known for its clean beaches and bucket list experiences – including whale shark tours – Isla Mujeres is a Mexican Caribbean classic. In the winter, try out these popular excursions, which immerse visitors in the island’s beautiful atmosphere and tropical vibes.
To reach Isla Mujeres from Cancun, opt for one of several ferry companies, with the largest being Ultramar, which offers dozens of daily connections to the island.
