With just 20 minutes between Cancún International Airport and Azul Beach Resort Riviera Maya, you’ll be sipping your arrival champagne and building sandcastles with your family before you know it.
Then start exploring our half-mile of white sand Caribbean each, exciting kid-centric activities, as well as Gourmet Inclusive® restaurants and bars — Karisma’s elevated interpretation of the all-inclusive experience. Everything is just a short stroll, or stroller ride, away.
This intimate beachfront resort features just 148 suites, Azulitos Playhouse, 24-hour room service Vassa Spa and a tequila lounge featuring over 30 tequilas, because, hello, this is Mexico.
At Azul Beach Resort Riviera Maya, the fun never sets. Awaken your senses with morning yoga on the beach. Immerse yourself in some aqua aerobics. Build a castle on the beach, or do your best to avoid the sandy stuff on a nearby 18-hole green. Grab a mask and snorkel and search for colorful reef fish right off the beach. Try scuba diving, swimming with dolphins or exploring a Mayan ruin. When evening falls, the stars come out with live music, authentic Mexican performances, fire dancers, just to name a few. Speaking of stars, how does a moonlight couples massage sound right about now?
The Gourmet Inclusive® restaurants and bars at Azul Beach Riviera Maya combine the finest international cuisine and all premium drinks in a variety of hip and extraordinary settings. There are 6 restaurants, 24-hour room service and over 30 tequilas in the tequila lounge. And because true appreciation for fine cuisine comes with age, Azul Beach Resort Riviera Maya also practices the art of keeping things simple for our younger guests. Homemade, bubbling, lightly browned mac & cheese anyone?

Hi Ryan and Jennifer,
We are back from our big weekend. First of all we would like to start off by saying thank you to you both and all your colleagues at VIP for your hard work and for encouraging us to go with Karisma Resorts and making Azul Beach work for us!
Jennifer, you really fought for us all the way. We recognize we made you go back and forth with the sales team several times to get enough negotiated rooms and to get us the resort credit which we wanted to do for our guests. We can say more than 30 of our guests took advantage of the spa. So thank you so much!
Ryan, thank you for always being there for us during all our moments of crisis (even the day after our wedding)!! You took time to answer all our questions and were so straightforward with everything.
The Azul Beach staff was just out of this world. We recognize we required a lot of things given that we had to meld two completely different cultures. Our family and friends were completely taken back by their hospitality and service. We would recommend Azul Beach and VIP Travels to our friends and family. Azul is definitely now an expert with Indian/American weddings…haha.
