A Winter Escape to Puerto Morelos — 3-Day Itinerary

Nestled in what was once a small fisherman village about half an hour outside of Cancun, Grand Residences Riviera Cancun is a hidden beachfront treasure full of incredible cuisine, luxurious amenities, and breathtaking views of the coastal waters. The resort’s private beach, delectable dining, and world-class service have redefined the very standard of luxury in Puerto Morelos.

Whether guests desire to simply relax on the beach or take part in the number of weekly activities the resort offers (i.e., Zumba, cooking class, tequila tasting, Spanish lessons), Grand Residences is able to create the perfect getaway – with all-inclusive or room only options. With an array of amenity and activity offerings that are customizable, Grand Residences Riviera Cancun has quickly risen to one of the must-stay resorts in the Mexican Caribbean.

While the resort has been welcoming guests since 2013, Grand Residences Riviera Cancun was named the flagship property for the new Registry Collection Hotels in 2021. Recognizing Grand Residences’ commitment to creating a unique and elevated experience for every guest, Wyndham chose to debut their new 21st luxe-focused brand with the coastal property.
