Beach & Pool
Seaweed risk: moderate
The hotel's beach is in a privileged area where very little sargassum typically reaches. However, regional seaweed is possible in late spring/summer and is cleaned daily. Peak seaweed season in Cancun is May to October, and 2026 is predicted to be a major year for sargassum in the Mexican Caribbean.
Pristine, soft, powder-white sand beach with turquoise waters. Features a large lounger area shaded by palapas.
