The Barceló Maya Grand Resort occupies a generous 2km stretch of Riviera Maya's stunning coastline, just south of Puerto Aventuras.

About an hour's drive from Cancun airport, Barcelo Maya Colonial is part of a family of hotels which occupy the appealingly low-rise, self-contained complex.

Facilities include several swimming pools with adults-only pools as well as children's areas, a fitness centre, extensive spa, tennis, mini golf and non-motorised water sports. For children, there's also water park.

Choose from several bars and two speciality restaurants, a buffet and an oceanside snack-grill, serving Mexican and international cuisine.

You won’t get bored here: guests are also free to use the sports facilities, swimming pools and numerous restaurants and bars of the Barceló Maya Beach, Maya Caribe and Maya Tropical, all part of the Maya Grand Resort.
