Hotel Information: Designed in a distinctive Mexi-Caribe style that provides expansive, shaded open-air spaces, and sea and lagoon views both large and small, this hotel displays a rough-concrete exterior enlivened by bright pink, blue, and yellow accents and monumental pieces such as huge white-concrete fruit, large balls, and random stands of colored columns.

Amenity highlights: Beaches on the Caribbean Sea and Nichupté Lagoon, which separates Cancún Island from the mainland, offer both morning and afternoon sun. Pools and sundecks face sea and lagoon. Thickly cushioned teak lounge chairs provide sunbathing comfort. The health-and-beauty spa offers treatments in air-conditioned rooms, open-air "cabins" on stilts with raw-pole walls and thatch roofs, and open-air thatched-roof palapas on the beach.

Insider tip: At night, a thatched-roof lifeguard shack on the beach makes a romantic hideaway for enjoying moonlight on the sea.
