Opened in March 2009, Banyan Tree Mayakoba has quickly established itself as the top destination for visitors in the Riviera Maya, having won accolades for its impeccable service and refined amenities.
As word of mouth continues to spread, the resort is also poised to cater for customised weddings and honeymoons, thanks to its ideal location and range of wedding services and facilities.
Located on the sun-drenched Caribbean coast on the Mayan peninsula of Mexico, Banyan Tree Mayakoba offers the unique combination of authentic Mayan spiritual ceremonies, with modern-day facilities for every wedding wishlist. The resort’s dedicated Romance Manager is readily available to ensure the smooth planning and execution of wedding ceremonies or anniversary celebrations, including special requests such as tailoring a traditional Mayan wedding dress. Banyan Tree Mayakoba also offers a variety of choices for these intimate celebrations – such as a sunrise ceremony on the beach, in the glittering ballroom for bigger parties, al fresco on a wooden timber deck at dusk, or in the privacy of one’s own garden villa.
