Fodor's Expert Review Catalonia Royal Tulum
Carretera 307, Km 264.5, Xpu-Há, Quintana Roo, 77790, Mexico
This lavish, adults-only resort was designed around the surrounding jungle and has a great beach and terrific food for a resort in its price range; however, it may not be the place for you if you don't want a nonstop environment. Activities like snorkeling, diving, kayaking, aqua aerobics, water polo, and pool volleyball can keep you occupied for the duration of your stay. The marble-floor lobby has bamboo furniture and a central waterfall underneath a giant palapa roof. Rooms have pleasant wood furniture and private terraces with views of the lush foliage. Three large pools, separated from the outdoor hot tubs by an island of palm trees, look out onto the spectacular beach. The food is exceptional and varied, with everything from Spanish tapas to fruit smoothies.
