LOCATED IN THE historic Riviera Maya, between laid-back Playa del Carmen and bustling Cancún, Dreams Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa promises couples the best of both worlds. Guests to the “Unlimited-Luxury” escape can relax in a romantic setting of sun-drenched swimming pools, palm-fringed sands and lush tropical gardens, or they can fill their day with activities like ocean sports, golf and tours around the Yucatán peninsula.

The resort’s unique octagonal rooms and suites come with private Jacuzzis, marble baths and furnished balconies overlooking the sea, pool or gardens. All accommodations also feature spacious living areas, cozy beds and minibars refreshed daily.

As part of the Unlimited-Luxury privileges, 24-hour concierge and room service is complimentary, as are gourmet cuisine and premium brand drinks in eight theme restaurants, a buffet and six lounges and bars. During their stay, couples can sample flavors from around the world, including French, Italian and Japanese, Mexican and Mediterranean fare. They can also enjoy a variety of nighttime entertainment, like live shows and moonlit theme parties, stargazing and movies on the beach.

As popular with couples as it is with families and single travelers, the resort offers something for everybody. Children can have fun at the Explorer’s Club while adults relax by one of multiple swimming pools or at the world-class Dreams Spa by Pevonia, where rejuvenating treatments fuse international and locally inspired healing techniques.

With a variety of wedding venues and custom bridal packages to choose from, brides and grooms know their special day will be nothing short of spectacular. The packages—one of them complimentary—include a professional wedding coordinator to handle catering, decor, transportation and all the details in between. Couples can also add such special extras as a seaside dinner for two and side-by-side spa treatments.

Tying the knot on the beach or in the gazebo makes a dreamy beginning to a new life together. And there’s more. Honeymooners who book seven nights or more earn complimentary nights toward a return stay for their first anniversary.
