Grand Sirenis Resorts in the Riviera Maya


Grand Sirenis page


The Grand Sirenis Resorts are a short 20 miles from Playa del Carmen on the beautiful beach of Akumal. It is 2 resorts in 1 that offer complete exchange privileges: The Grand Sirenis Mayan and the Grand Sirenis Riviera. The first thing I noticed was the straight lines in the modern architecture. Stunning really. The next thing I got really excited about, perhaps too excited, was the lazy river! Too bad I was in my business wear or I would of grabbed me a tube and gone afloatin'. :) The lazy river winds around the resort and had a nicely paced current to it. The next thing I was impressed with was the rooms. Each room was a Junior Suite that had a fully stocked mini bar and living area along with a balcony with outdoor furniture. And again, the decor was very tasteful.

The beach was wrapped around a large, beautiful cove that is perfect for snorkeling. If you are traveling there in July or August, be sure to be on the lookout for mama turtles bringing their eggs ashore to hatch their babies.

After the beach we were able to see their spa. The spa at this resort will forever be impressed in my mind as one of the best spas I have ever SEEN! Perhaps THE best. Thomas Cook Magazine even names it as one of the Best Spas in the World.

After the tour of the amazing spa we had some d.e.l.i.c.i.o.u.s. lunch in the spa's restaurant. Healthy AND impeccable so it is a double dose of fabulousness. ;-)

This resort is perfect for someone who:

* Enjoys an amazing spa.
* Appreciates lazy rivers.
* Finds pleasure in Corona Beer. (They serve it.)
* Doesn't prefer larger resorts.
* Enjoys a charming, white-sanded beach.
