Banyan Tree Mexico Mayakoba Dining - Romantic Cruise

Ixchel

Translated as Moon Goddess, Ixchel is our traditional trajinera boat dining experience. Treat yourself to a magnificent fusion of local and international cuisines prepared by our culinary hosts. Enjoy a cooked-to-order menu as you explore the canals and mangroves of Mayakoba. This outstanding experience is available twice daily, for both breakfast and dinner departures, and must be booked in advance. An excellent idea for proposals.

Golf

Designed by Greg Norman, experience the best golf course in the Riviera Maya with your loved one. El Camaleon golf course earned its name from the intrepid journey it takes through three distinct ecosystems as it ventures through jungle, dense mangrove and stretches of oceanfront sand. It was the first to host the Mexican PGA Tour and hosts the annual Mayakoba Golf Classic.

A signature Banyan Tree Spa innovation, the Rainforest combines our time-honoured Asian wellness philosophy with exclusive sessions of hydrothermal therapies in exceptional facilities. Surrender your senses to a new dimension of holistic rejuvenation. Journey through a cascading rain walk. Calm your spirit in the aroma steam chamber. Luxuriate and detox in the Hammam. Immerse yourself in different experience showers. Relax in the warmth of the sauna then cool down with a brisk rubdown from the ice fountain, followed by restorative acupressure jets in the vitality pool and waterfall.
