About the Mayan Riviera
 

beach.jpg

México borders the USA to the north and Belize and Guatemala to the south. México covers an area of two million km2 and has a population of 73 million inhabitants. The Tulum region is in the state of Quintana Roo, which is to the south of the Mexican Republic, in the western portion of the Yucatán peninsula. It takes two hours by plane to cover the distance between México City and the town of Cancún (128 kilometres to the south and one hour and 55 minutes along federal highway 307).

The Mayan Riviera, a 150-km strip of unspoiled beach and tropical forest, stretches out 40 km to the south of Cancún.

 

Like a dream come true, the magnificent Bahía Principe Tulum is a hidden paradise featuring a distinctly Mayan influence, with rooms and suites distributed throughout 3-storey villas surrounded by acres of tropical coconut palms and exotic vegetation.


Guests staying at the Bahía Principe Tulum have complimentary exchange privileges with the Bahía Principe Akumal and Bahía Principe Coba for use of facilities and dining. (dining restrictions apply)

Grand Bahia Prinicpe Tulum REsort

Maria,

We just returned from the Gran Bahia Principe Tulum and we had a wonderful time.  The resort is now more tropical than picture show and there are lots of palapas.  We did get our request for the oceanfront room.  Thank you for your wonderful service.

PS:  It's great to deal with an agency that delivers what it promised, thanks again.

 

Hi Maria,

I just wanted to let you know how our square deal vacation with APPLE Vacations went last week.  The hotel we were assigned to was the Gran Bahia Principe Tulum.  It is in the Mayan Riviera section close to Tulum.  It was awesome.  The restaurants had everything from hamburgers to roast duck.  The resort was beautiful.  They had a theatre with a Broadway play every night and disco's and shopping on site.  Everybody there was so friendly and helpful.  We went into Playa del Carmen one night and went to Xel-Ha and spent another day.  The rest of the time we were at our resort and loving it.  It worked out really well for us so I wanted to say thank you for helping me and my husband have a great memory for our one year anniversary!
