As you step into the grand lobby, expect an impressive first impression-vaulted ceilings, chic accents, and artwork that embodies the vibrant culture of the region instantly set the tone for indulgence. The lobby's ethos of design-elegant and inviting-extends throughout this flagship property, boasting avant-garde architecture and unparalleled access to the comprehensive luxury of the Barceló Maya Grand Resort. Guests can choose from 4 restaurants, including the beachfront grill that serves up tantalizing seafood in a casual ambiance, or savor Italian classics at Capri, which transports you to a charming trattoria with its savory aromas. Beyond dining, indulge in the renowned U-Spa, an oasis dedicated to wellness and relaxation, where treatments inspired by the four elements invite rejuvenation and serenity. The 15 bars within the complex, from the dynamic sports bar open 'til 2 AM to vibrant poolside lounges, ensure that refreshing cocktails and global spirits are always within reach.
