Holiday in luxury at the Unico 20°87° on Riviera Maya, Mexico

Arrive as a tourist, leave as a traveller.

By Fabio Crispim

A stay at Unico 20°87° sees guests arrive as tourists and leave as travellers – the hotel prides itself on that philosophy.

As an adults only retreat that offers a truly relaxing getaway, Unico 20°87° brings a sense of regional celebration into every aspect of its guest experience. The hotel’s atmosphere ensures that all visitors — straight or LGBT+ — feel welcomed and looked after. As an aspirational all-inclusive property, the hotel’s “Unlimited Inclusions” programme means guests can enjoy five fine-dining restaurants, selected unlimited excursions* or pamper themselves with selected spa treatments* that use natural, local materials.

On entering the custom scented lobby, luxury is apparent with its inspiring design and acute attention to detail making many guests immediately reach for their phone to capture the moment before they’ve even checked in. Access to the Unico 20°87° App is granted immediately, allowing guests to interact digitally with the hotel and its staff.

Every touch point and interaction on the app has been crafted and curated with an extraordinary list of unique features and personalised options; from arranging when housekeeping visits, to allowing guests to order a dirty martini with two olives to be delivered straight to their lounge chair by the pool!

Each guest is also allocated their own unique Anfitrión – a personal host available 24 hours a day for the duration of their stay – which replaces the traditional butler service whilst still allowing all of their individual needs to be met and connecting guests to the destination.

Unlimited Inclusions

Unico 20°87° Hotel Riviera Maya proudly presents an all-inclusive dining experience that pays homage to regional Yucatan dishes. The rotating chef, an all-day dining concept at the hotel’s Cueva Siete restaurant, headed-up by acclaimed Executive Chef Christian Bravo, celebrates Mexico’s culinary diversity and ingredients. The menu offers tastes from the past, present and future; taking guests on an edible tour of the country with dishes rooted in Mexican flavours and traditions. 

The hotel’s beverage offerings also foster a sense of regional celebration, with an Executive Mixologist infusing local flavours and ingredients to craft specialty cocktails for guests on request and, of course, available at no additional cost.

Guests can also indulge with selected spa and beauty salon treatments* included as part of the all-inclusive concept. The exclusive Esencia Wellness Centre’s selection of inclusive treatments means guests can indulge and pamper themselves at no additional cost with therapies such as the Esencia Signature Massage, the Sun Relief Wrap, the Volcanic Stones Massage and many more.

Unico 20°87° also encourages guests to get off property and explore with a series of tours* that provide the opportunity for guests to fully immerse themselves in the local landscape.

From guided tours around one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Chichen Itza, to swimming with Dolphins and dining in a lagoon beneath starlit skies, guests can now choose from several packages that have been tailored to showcase the very best of this Mexican paradise – all inspired by the natural wonder and majesty of the local region.
