Hidden among emerald mangroves, crystalline canals, and pristine white-sand beaches lies a dreamlike destination: Mayakoba, a luxurious eco-enclave in the Riviera Maya that is winning the hearts of women seeking reconnection, wellness, and unfiltered nature.

But Mayakoba isn't just a pretty place. It's an experience. A lifestyle. A sacred respite for women seeking more than just a trip: they want to return to themselves.

An eco-chic paradise designed for conscious women

Located just minutes from Playa del Carmen, Mayakoba is a luxury resort complex comprised of renowned resorts such as Banyan Tree, Rosewood, Fairmont, and Andaz, each designed to coexist in harmony with the ecosystem without sacrificing comfort.

What makes it unique is its regenerative ecotourism model: it not only protects nature, but also restores it. More than 60 species of birds inhabit its protected mangroves and the natural canals that connect the sea to the jungle.

“You breathe differently here. It slows your rhythm, it lifts your soul,” says Mariana León, a Mexican traveler and entrepreneur who visited Mayakoba as part of a women's retreat.

Activities to reconnect body, mind, and spirit

Mayakoba has become a perfect refuge for women's retreats, wellness getaways, and purposeful travel. You don't come here just to rest: you come here to flourish.

  • Sunrise kayaking through the mangroves
  • Yoga sessions on floating platforms
  • Spa with Mayan rituals and holistic treatments
  • Healthy oceanfront dinners with local ingredients
  • Meditation, coaching, and women's empowerment retreats

And for the more active: jungle biking, snorkeling in cenotes, eco-golf, and healthy cooking classes.

Traveling with women: a growing trend

More and more women are choosing to travel alone or in the company of other women, seeking safe, healing, and meaningful spaces. Mayakoba understands this need and adapts with personalized services, workshops, wellness experiences, and an atmosphere of respect and beauty.
