What to Pack For Riviera Maya, According to a Frequent Flyer

Get the Full StoryAs a frequent traveler, I love visiting beautiful beachside properties that are only a short flight from Atlanta, where I currently live. Luckily, since I fly out of the world's busiest airport, I have access to many stunning destinations via nonstop service - all of which are reachable in about three hours or less. Recently, I had the pleasure of visiting Riviera Maya, Mexico, for my friend's birthday. We stayed at the Hyatt Zilara Riviera Maya, a newly remodeled oceanfront resort that offers up luxury and relaxation.

Located about 35 minutes from Cancun's airport, the resort provided roundtrip transportation to and from the property through their partner Amstar. Nestled on 1.5 acres of white sand beach, the resort had breathtaking ocean, resort, and tropical views. We stayed in an ocean-view private pool room, which was the perfect place for us to enjoy the Mexican sun while relaxing by the dipping pool with our music.

The resort's amenities were equally impressive. I spent hours lounging by the sprawling pool and adjacent hot tub, showing off my newest swimwear. This resort offered everything I needed for an unforgettable stay, including a butler who provided plenty of champagne so we could pop bottles and celebrate. Whether hanging out by the pool or enjoying dinner outdoors, the Hyatt Zilara Riviera Maya was a paradise that delivered both indulgence and tranquility.
