Iberostar Selection Paraíso Maya welcomes you facing the Riviera Maya, on a white sand beach where the turquoise Caribbean stretches endlessly before you. This establishment embodies true all-inclusive philosophy: you drop your bags and forget your wallet. À la carte restaurants reserved, unlimited bars, water activities, shows every night. The hotel breathes five-star comfort with spacious rooms and private terraces overlooking tropical gardens or the ocean.
Arrival
Our local representative greets you at the airport and drives you directly to the hotel, transfer included. At the Paraíso Maya reception, the tone is set immediately: welcome drink, warm smile, and you pass through the main entrance under arches of lush vegetation announcing the eight pools scattered across the grounds. Depending on your room choice, you have a 58 m² Junior Suite climate-controlled with private balcony, a connecting Family Suite for families, or the 232 m² Presidential Penthouse Suite with private terrace and bathtub facing the mangroves. Each room benefits from free Wi-Fi, daily replenished minibar, bathroom with hot tub, and room service from 11am to 11pm. Your patio or terrace quickly becomes your personal refuge.
Dining, all included
Here, eating is pleasure without calculation. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served as all-you-can-eat buffets to warm your appetite, but the major asset is unlimited à la carte dinners on reservation. You alternate between the Steak House Prime Rib El Rancho for generous grilled meats (6pm-10pm), La Geisha for the discreet elegance of Japanese cuisine (6pm-10pm), Bistrot L'étoile for French finesse (6pm-9pm), El Tapatio for authentic Mexican flavors (12:30pm-4:30pm and 6pm-10pm), and La Marina dedicated to Gulf seafood (7am-11am and 6pm-10pm). Between meals, Coco Snack Bar offers light plates from 11:30am to 6pm. Bars run without interruption: Kukulkán Lobby Bar from 8am, Star Café 24/7 for your coffees, three poolside bars (Las Olas, El Puente, La Rocas) during the day, Cigar Bar for enthusiasts (5pm-1am), and Galaxy Disco for lively evenings (10pm-1am). National and imported drinks flow freely. We invite you to verify the details of the all-inclusive offer directly on the Iberostar website, as inclusions may vary depending on the period and room type.
Days by the water
Paraíso Maya unfolds eight pools throughout the property, enough to always find a quiet or festive corner depending on the hour. White sand beach begins from your room's first steps, and you enjoy one hour daily of non-motorized water activities: kayaking, Hobie cat, snorkeling, windsurfing. A dive center is accessible as an extra charge to explore the remarkable depths of the coast. Fit and Fun facilities offer sports equipment, and Star Friends organize daily animations and beach games. Children join Star Camp with three distinct clubs: Monkey for ages 4-6, Dolphin for 7-12, Eagle for 13-15. Childcare is available on request. Golf enthusiasts access courses at additional cost. A scenic walk crosses the region's mangroves.
Evening vibes
Each evening, live shows and music animate the main terrace. Bars fill progressively at aperitif time, Galaxy disco ignites after 10pm (access from age 18), and you can end the night at the Cigar Bar sipping local rum. The atmosphere remains refined, never hectic. The 24-hour valet service and provided beach towels ensure you never manage any logistical detail. You also have access to facilities and restaurants of the two neighboring Iberostar Waves del Mar and Iberostar Waves Paraíso Beach hotels, further expanding your discovery scope.
Who is it for?
Paraíso Maya suits couples seeking total relaxation, families with children thanks to the well-structured Star Camp, and small friend groups looking for a luxury base without worry. Seniors appreciate the pressure-free rhythm, top-notch services and fine dining within steps. If you travel with young children, the 124 m² Family Suite and on-demand babysitting offer flexibility and space. Those who love combining relaxation with cultural discovery will find Tulum within an hour and Chichen Itza within two hours' drive.

The cherry on top
The small detail that changes everything: the daily restocked minibar included, because there is nothing more pleasant than finding fresh drinks upon your beach return without ever being charged.
